Xirui was still unsure of what Kangxi was thinking at the moment, so she didn't plan to say much.

The main purpose is to ask more.

Kangxi frowned and thought deeply for a moment, thinking over and over again the stupid things that Yinreng had done, but he couldn't figure out how to deal with him.

If the punishment is too light, I will not be able to swallow this anger, but if the punishment is to be severe, how can I punish him?

Xirui: “…” She knew it would be like this.

No matter how much mental preparation you have made in advance, it cannot compare to the moment you actually face it.

The longer Kangxi remained silent, the longer Xirui stared at him.

Not a single change in his expression was missed, and all of it fell into Xirui's eyes.

At this moment, no amount of helplessness or sighs could express her feelings.

Xirui silently turned his head away and stopped looking at Kangxi.

"I have been thinking about that fine breed for a long time, but have never seen it. Father, why don't you ask the sedan bearers to turn a corner and go around so that I can take a look first?" Not wanting to dwell on the topic of Yinreng, Xirui changed the subject directly.

Ever since he learned that one of the three improved varieties of corn was ripe, half of Xirui's heart had already flown back to the Forbidden City.

God knows how much she craves this!

Sweet corn, sticky corn, roasted corn cobs, fried corn, corn juice...

Just thinking about it makes my stomach itch.

At that time, Xirui wished someone could send her a few as quickly as possible so that she could try them.

At this moment, this idea became more and more intense.

It would be better to send it to the emperor as soon as possible, rather than keeping it for Yinreng and his gang to mess around with and cause a big uproar in the city, right?

Kangxi had not yet come out of his thoughts. Hearing this, he was a little surprised and asked, "What about Yinreng and the others?"

They are still waiting in the Qianqing Palace.

"If Your Majesty is worried that the Crown Prince will be waiting anxiously, then you can go first and leave only two of you for me." Xirui seemed to have had the idea early on and immediately suggested.

She just didn't want to get involved in this matter so directly.

The father and son were confronting each other, and she felt awkward standing by.

Might as well go check out her corn.

No one knows how much Yinreng and his men took away in total.

She had to go and see it in person to feel at ease.

"Stop the sedan." Xirui didn't look at Kangxi's reaction. When he sensed that the sedan was about to turn, he directly called out to the outside.

Upon hearing the sound, several sedan chair bearers outside stopped.

"What does the princess want to tell you?" Liang Jiugong knew that this was the intention of the young master inside without hearing Kangxi's voice.

So he didn't ask his master any more questions, but simply went to the sedan chair and asked Xirui.

"Please, Eunuch Liang, point out two people to me. I want to go and take a look behind the Wenhua Hall." Xirui said as he stood up and walked out.

Liang Jiugong heard the noise and hurried forward to lift the curtain for her. "Slow down and watch your step."

For fear that this little ancestor would jump down again, Liang Jiugong had made preparations to pick him up in advance.

He hurriedly threw the whisk to the person next to him, and then he stood guard at the side of the sedan with his arms wide open.

Just as Xirui was about to step out of the sedan chair, the people Liang Jiugong had called over were waiting by the side.

But in the end, he still lost to Kangxi's words, "Alright, stop making trouble."

"Go to Wenhua Palace." Kangxi looked directly at Liang Jiugong and ordered.

He hasn't figured out what to do with that rebellious son yet, but he thought there wouldn't be anything wrong with just going out for a walk.

Maybe there's still some clue.

"Yes." Liang Jiugong received the order and hurriedly asked Xirui to go back and sit down, then he called out loudly, "Please go to Wenhua Palace~"

Once the things planted behind the Wenhua Palace started to grow, they could no longer be hidden from everyone in the palace.

Especially the area planted with corn, which still attracts attention even if it is more than ten or twenty meters away.

This is why Kangxi issued a gag order before leaving the palace, forbidding anyone to talk about this matter, and sent imperial guards in batches to guard the place.

Only then was the curiosity of the people in the palace suppressed.

Otherwise, who knows what the story would have been like.

But none of them expected that it would be difficult to guard against a thief in one's own home no matter how hard they tried.

No matter how thoughtful Kangxi was, he never expected that this problem would eventually occur to his own son.

"Liang Jiugong, go and bring the prince to the back of Wenhua Palace for me." After a long silence, Kangxi finally made up his mind.

Before leaving the palace, Yinreng had promised him personally that there would be no mistakes regarding the good seed.

Now that he is back, it is natural for him to be there and put an end to this matter.

"Well, I'll ask someone to pass on the order." Liang Jiugong pointed to a young eunuch nearby and asked him to go to the Qianqing Palace to pass on the order.

The sedan chair did not stop and continued to move towards its destination.

It was not until Xirui could see the tall green stalks of corn through a corner of the lifted curtain that the sedan stopped amid her exclamation.

"Okay, okay, let's stop here." Since there were only a few steps left, Xirui asked the sedan bearers to get off the sedan.

She couldn't wait to go out and take a look.

"Don't be anxious, run slowly, be careful not to fall." Kangxi did not stop her, but followed her out of the sedan chair.

He kept repeating, "The things are growing in the field, and they can't grow legs to run away. Why are you in such a hurry?"

If we don't look at his increasingly quick steps, perhaps this statement would be more credible.

Xirui didn't even need to look back. Just by listening to the sound getting closer and closer to her, she knew what was going on.

He clearly felt the same as her, but he still acted pretentiously.

Pursing her lips, Xirui finally endured the words that exposed him.

Considering the well-growing corn in front of her, she decided to give him some face.

"Wow! The corn is so tall!" Only after running to the front of the cornfield did Xirui feel the reality of the corn.

Tall stalks, green leaves, big corn…

Everything is so strange and familiar.

"Good! Good!" Kangxi stood a few steps behind Xirui. The lively scene in front of him made him feel happy.

"Someone, come and get some corn kernels as a snack for lunch today." He wanted to try what this good variety tasted like.

As long as it is not disgustingly unpalatable, it will be successfully promoted.

"This time, the trial planting was only on half an acre of land, but we have already obtained so much..." A long-lost smile appeared on Kangxi's face, and he was planning to share the results with Xirui.

However, he didn't expect that the doll that was right under his nose just now had disappeared.
