Didn’t you say you’ve been craving this for a long time?

Then just let’s have enough of it all at once!

After all, the corn berries are right in front of her, so can't she eat them however she wants?

Xirui, who was still secretly wanting to scratch his face a few times, suddenly brightened up when he heard this.

Yes!

She can eat fresh roasted corn!

I can now eat the pine nut corn that I have been talking about for a long time.

Xirui smacked his lips as he thought about it, and his gaze shifted from the cornfield to Kangxi's face. He then asked sincerely, "Can I really eat whatever I want?"

She was craving not just a few cooking methods, but wanted to try all kinds of cooking, including frying, deep-frying, stewing and baking.

Is it really possible?

"The output of this half acre of land is more than enough for you to taste." I had originally planned to explore more ways to eat corn so that promotion would be easier.

Therefore, Kangxi was not only not reluctant to let Xirui deal with these corn berries, but was quite happy to see it happen.

"You can arrange it as you like in the imperial kitchen. Eat it however you want." Kangxi waved his hand, and the first basket of corn that was picked was quickly sent to the imperial kitchen.

Xirui followed them closely with her eyes until she turned a corner and could no longer see them, and then she reluctantly withdrew her eyes.

In just a few minutes, she had already compiled an entire cookbook of corn recipes in her mind.

Now everything is ready, all we have to do is wait for the imperial chef to arrive.

[Hiss~] The more I imagine it, the more I can’t stop drooling.

Xirui couldn't resist the temptation and wanted to follow Yumi to the imperial kitchen.

As the saying goes, those who are close to the water get the moon first. If she were to stay by the stove, she would definitely be the first to taste the freshly cooked corn.

It’s really exciting just thinking about it.

Xirui was very interested, but before she could say that she wanted to leave, a group of people appeared at the corner on the other side.

The one leading the group was the prince wearing an apricot-yellow dragon robe.

"Uh..." Seeing Yinreng coming over, Xirui swallowed back the words that were about to come out.

She almost forgot about the important matter.

The trouble caused by Yinreng and Gelfen has not been resolved yet, so how can she leave first?

Even a portion of the output from the cornfield in front of them had to be reserved to shut up those people inside and outside the palace.

Thinking of this, Xirui became a little unhappy.

So much so that when she faced Yinreng, the instigator, she did not conceal her change of mood at all, "Meet the second brother, the crown prince."

Taking advantage of the fact that his arm was still being held, Xirui simply squatted perfunctorily as a gesture of greeting.

Yinreng saw the whole scene, but he had no time to argue with her.

He was unable to protect himself, so he had to quickly look away and walk forward with his head lowered.

With a slightly dejected look on his face, he did not dare to make any eye contact with Kangxi. When they came closer, he bowed and said, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you. May your Highness be well and healthy."

One second, two seconds... half a minute...

Kangxi never said a word, just stared at Yinreng quietly.

In this silence, Yinreng couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling. After a simple greeting, he didn't dare to stand up.

Instead, he changed from kneeling on one knee to kneeling on both knees.

He even bowed his head slowly, "I am guilty, please forgive me, Father."

"I beg the emperor to forgive me." Gelfin lagged behind Yinreng by half a step and also immediately followed suit by kneeling on the ground and begging for forgiveness.

No excuses, just apologies.

At this point, they all know that what they have done is irrefutable and refusing to plead guilty is not an option.

It would be better to just admit it, maybe you can save a point or two.

[Tsk tsk tsk tsk~ Where did they learn this rogue behavior? ] Xirui, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but marvel in her heart.

Yinreng's current behavior seems as if he is completely sure that Kangxi will not do anything to him.

Anyway, the main point is to do everything.

He pleaded guilty and accepted the punishment.

[So what if they are rogues? As long as they are useful, that's enough.] At least their goal has been achieved.

Yinreng and Gelfin had made their plan clear, and even 066 had no difficulty in guessing their intentions.

He was simply thinking that now almost everyone in the capital knew that the matter of the good seed was related to the crown prince. Even if Kangxi had other ideas, it would be difficult to completely cover up the matter.

They had already gained the benefits first, so naturally they didn't care whether Kangxi would be angry about it.

Or rather, they had thought of a rhetoric long ago that would appease Kangxi's anger and thereby reduce or even exempt them from punishment.

[You are right. No matter what method is used, the most important thing is that it works.] Xirui lowered his head and chuckled helplessly.

This is where Yinreng’s confidence comes from.

Looking at all the princes of the Qing Dynasty, except for him, no one else can be so fearless after committing a crime.

Kangxi didn't say anything, so Yinreng and Gelfin just knelt there and dared not move.

As time goes by, even if they are confident, they can't help feeling uneasy.

"Emperor...Emperor Father..." Finally, Yinreng lost his patience.

Kneeling and kowtowing for a long time inevitably made him feel sore all over.

Taking advantage of this opportunity to talk, he was about to look up at Kangxi.

Unexpectedly, a voice came from above his head, "Did I say you can get up?"

It was hard to tell what emotion was in these words, but Yinreng's heart skipped a beat.

Not daring to have any other thoughts, he quickly knelt down again, "Father Emperor, please calm down."

"Calm down? Do you think I'm angry now?" Kangxi stared at his son on the ground with a smile, and it was indeed impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry from his tone.

After taking a deep breath, Kangxi continued, "Since I am angry, why do you think I am angry?"

"Why do you want to calm down?" The voice was not loud, but it seemed like a question that was getting louder and louder, hitting Yinreng one after another.

His clothes on the back were soaked with sweat in an instant. He said, "Your son... Your son..." The sudden panic made him stammer and unable to utter a complete sentence.

Kangxi listened with no expression on his face, still looking calm and composed.

Only his subconsciously clenched hands betrayed him.

Xirui was forced to be at the center of the storm, and she felt extremely embarrassed facing this situation.

Who would have thought that Kangxi's grip on her arm would get tighter and tighter.

Xirui, who was forced to peek into his mood at the moment: "..."

Who can come and save her!
