After fetal transfusion: Huang Ama, your royal mausoleum has been stolen

Chapter 279 Cao's "Loyalty to the Emperor"

Xi Rui just stared at his confident expression without saying anything, only thinking secretly in his heart, wondering how he would deal with the Cao family now that he knew that it was a huge den of corruption.

Will he still cherish the old feelings like in the life she knew?

Just as she said, the Cao family has been loyal to the emperor for generations. Now they are loyal to Kangxi. In a few years, or even no more, they will soon turn their loyalty to Kangxi and the crown prince.

Time and again, they plundered the people's wealth in the name of "loyalty to the emperor."

As a result, in the end, the deficit was so huge that it would take several generations to pay it off.

"Why are you looking at me like that? There's no flower on my face." Kangxi felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by his daughter. For a moment he even thought that there was something on his face.

Xirui withdrew her thoughts instantly and stopped staring at him.

"Didn't see anything."

[I was just wondering what kind of person Cao Yin was that he could gain the emperor's trust to this extent.] Even though he had taken so much, he was still let off so easily.

This is something Xirui couldn't understand at all.

Is this the difference between an emperor who ascends the throne at a young age and one who ascends the throne in his forties?

Yongzheng’s ideas were completely different from his father’s.

If this had happened during the reign of Emperor Yongzheng, let alone causing a deficit of three or four million silver coins like Cao Yin did, even if it was only half of that, it would not have ended well.

It is impossible to just give him verbal criticism and education and then help him get money to make up for the deficit.

I think that during the reign of Emperor Yongzheng, those officials who were dismissed for corruption must have missed Emperor Kangxi very much, right?

[Cao Yin was a man of both civil and military talents when he was young, and he was well-educated and talented. When he grew up, he was loyal and hardworking. I am naturally happy to use him.] As for trust, it has to be accumulated slowly over the years of getting along with each other.

Kangxi simply gave Xirui a brief introduction to Cao Yin, thinking that after listening to it, his daughter would understand why he was willing to use him so highly.

For a minister to be able to leave a good impression in the emperor's mind is very telling.

At this point, Xirui no longer worried about whether to trust or not, but just nodded to show his understanding.

[With the Cao family's support, it should be easier for the Crown Prince and his brothers to do things in Jiangnan.] Xirui had nothing to say about this, as long as the corn could be promoted as soon as possible.

[I think so too. With the Cao family's help in official matters and your elder brother and the guards from the Firearms Battalion to protect me in private matters, I can't think of any mistakes that could go wrong on this trip.] Kangxi said with great confidence.

Although he was angry and disappointed with his son's actions, he believed that he had done everything a father should do for his child.

Judging from the current situation, Xirui couldn't think of anything else to prepare.

If they still wanted to intervene further, they would have to help Yinreng arrange everything else.

Then why would he leave the palace?

This is not the way to be a mascot.

[Oh, that's right.] Xirui suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a point, [If we want to successfully promote something new that has never been seen before, we must let everyone know its benefits.]

This is just like the trial and tasting methods commonly used in promoting new products.

Isn't it better to let everyone try it for themselves and know the benefits of this thing, so that it can be more popular among people?

Xirui thought about what else she could prepare for Yinreng.

[Just like when the second prince spread the good varieties in the capital, he used the aroma of roasted corn to attract the people and deepen their impression of this corn.]

After all, good wine needs no bush.

If you don't make all the selling points clear, I'm afraid that people who have never heard of corn will not easily buy it.

[You mean... let Yinreng roast corn for the people to see every time he arrives at a place?] Kangxi vaguely grasped some of the essence, but did not fully understand it.

Although it sounds a bit outrageous to let the crown prince of a country roast corn on the street, if you think about it carefully, you will feel that it still makes some sense.

Before Xirui had time to correct his thoughts, Kangxi began to think about the feasibility of this idea on his own.

Yinreng would probably feel embarrassed and unwilling to show up in public to do such a thing.

But if I talk to him carefully and explain the reasons to him bit by bit, it should not be impossible.

Xirui didn't expect that he could think in such an outrageous direction. She was so shocked that she bit her tongue, "Ugh~ It hurts."

Although her tongue hurt, Xirui wanted to laugh again when she thought about how Yinreng was almost forced by his father to perform roasted corn on the street.

Therefore, under the rendering of these two different emotions, Xirui's final performance was a smile with red eyes.

Covering her injured mouth, Xirui laughed so hard that she couldn't stop.

But everyone else around was dumbfounded.

This time, among the people who didn’t understand what was happening, there was one more person, Kangxi.

He didn't know what he said wrong to make Xirui laugh like that.

I don't even know why I heard her say it hurts a second ago, and then saw her laughing so hard that she fell down the next second.

Two such contradictory emotions appearing in one person at the same time not only made Xirui himself uncomfortable, but also made Kangxi, who was watching, look puzzled.

"What's wrong? Have you thought of anything funny? Calm down first." Don't laugh until something bad happens.

He really didn't know how to explain to the imperial concubine that his daughter had hurt herself with laughter while eating.

Xirui raised her hands and waved them to indicate that she was fine. She covered her mouth and took a few deep breaths, trying to calm herself down.

It's a pity that she laughed too hard at once, and after she recovered, she couldn't help but start hiccuping.

The sound of "burp" came one after another, with a tight and brisk rhythm, making it impossible for her to speak normally.

It took quite a while before it finally stabilized.

But she still couldn't open her mouth to speak, "I hiccup~" As soon as she opened her mouth to speak, she would hiccup uncontrollably when she inhaled air into her mouth.

Kangxi couldn't help laughing when he saw it, "Okay, okay, let's eat first and stop talking." This would prevent him from burping again.

After being perfunctorily treated by him, Xirui felt uncomfortable both mentally and physically, and couldn't help but glance at him in anger.

It's all his fault!

In that case, let his son go to the street to roast corn.

She doesn't care!

Xirui thought angrily, and it was obvious that he wanted to vent his anger on Yinreng.

After all, the son must pay for the father's debt.

Very reasonable.
