The reason for this is that there are always some restless people who cause Yinreng to have to spend time worrying about them.

Inside the Imperial Study, Yinreng and several of his brothers were all there. Originally, Yinreng didn't want to handle matters in the Imperial Study, but after Kangxi spoke to him, Yinreng obediently began discussing official business in the Imperial Study.

"What do you all think of this matter?" Yinreng stood there with a gloomy expression.

"Your Majesty, I believe that opium and other such things should not exist in the Qing Dynasty. We should arrange for someone to thoroughly investigate everything as soon as possible." Yinzhi looked at the opium in the middle and felt a headache coming on.

"Of course I know. The most important thing now is to have everyone who has been investigated forced to accept the punishment. But there is a very serious problem. When the court cracked down on opium, it took such big action. I don't believe that some people didn't have any expectations. But now opium has come to the Qing Dynasty so quickly. Why do they think the Qing Dynasty is easy to bully?"

"Yes, and there's something else very strange. Since the last incident, the interactions between the coast and other countries have become very strict. Logically, if something like this came from abroad, it should have been detected immediately, but it wasn't reported. I want to know why." Yinzhen also looked at the thing on the ground with a dark expression.

"That can only mean that either they were planted on the territory of my Great Qing, or there was a problem with the inspectors. But no matter what the case is, my Great Qing will not allow it. So, Fourth Brother, I'm leaving this matter to you. You must find out where these things came from."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I obey." After saying this, Yinzhen left immediately. These matters were very important; the sooner they were resolved, the fewer people of the Qing Dynasty would be harmed.

"Third brother, fifth brother, check on the officials stationed at the seaside for any problems. If you find anything, report to me directly. Eldest brother, the patrol duties need to be increased during this period, so I'm entrusting them to you."

"Yes, Your Majesty, we obey." Yin Zhi, Yin Qi, and Yin Ti said, bowing.

After seeing everyone off, Yinreng frowned as he looked at the contents of the memorial. These things were really persistent and disgusting.

When Hongxi walked in, he saw his father, the Emperor, sitting there angrily. In recent years, Yinreng had gradually begun to teach Hongxi, hoping to help him grow up quickly so that he could go out to sea with his father and Consort Ming. Therefore, Hongxi would come to the Imperial Study to listen to Yinreng's teachings as soon as he finished class.

Of course, these teachings are still relatively superficial; Yinreng has not yet been willing to teach him most of the darker things.

"What's wrong, Father Emperor? What made you angry?" Hongxi asked as he walked over.

Yinreng looked at Hongxi, whose eyes had reached his waist, and said seriously, "Hongxi, do you know about opium?"

Hongxi nodded obediently. Of course he knew. Many teachers had told him that this thing could ruin a family and cause death. Not only would it ruin a family and cause death, but once someone got involved with it, selling their children would be the least of their worries.

When Hongxi first learned about it, he was terrified. This thing was so frightening that it could drive people to sell their children and cause their families to be destroyed.

Yinreng saw Hongxi nod and pointed to the boxes in front of him, saying, "These are opium."

Hongxi's face turned pale instantly, and he grabbed Yinreng's clothes, his voice trembling with tears: "Father, you can't touch me! I don't want to be sold, and I don't want my brother to be sold either." Although his brother was mentally challenged and often wet the bed, he was still his brother, and he didn't want him to be sold.

Just as Yinreng was about to say something, Hongxi choked him. He glanced at Hongxi helplessly and slapped him across the face.

"What are you thinking? Is your father that kind of person? I showed you this to tell you that you shouldn't touch this. If I see anyone touching it, I'll arrest them immediately." Yinreng was furious. Was he really that kind of person? How could he possibly touch such a thing? Really!

Hongxi was slapped by Yinreng and took a step forward. Before he could even cry out in pain, he heard Yinreng's words and realized that he had misunderstood his father. He scratched his head and grinned sheepishly, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Don't worry, Father Emperor, I understand. This thing must never be touched. Anyone who touches it must be arrested," Hongxi said obediently.

Yinreng nodded in satisfaction. That's how it should be. This is his good son, isn't it?

Yinreng was imitating Kangxi by instructing his child one-on-one, while Kangxi was sneezing incessantly.

Mingxiu looked at Kangxi with some concern: "Why don't you go back and rest? Do you have a cold? You don't feel any fever."

Just as Kangxi was about to speak, a sneeze came from nearby. 'Achoo!'

"Don't worry, it's not a cold or a fever. It's probably just someone talking about me behind my back," Kangxi said, shaking his head. He didn't feel any discomfort.

Mingxiu nodded: "Okay, it's good that you don't have a cold. Let's go, let's continue walking forward. I think I just saw a scarf that looked really nice." Mingxiu pulled Kangxi and continued walking forward. She also felt that it shouldn't be a cold. Not to mention, her spiritual spring water wasn't just for show, and besides, they usually ate the fruits in the space. Their constitution was good, so they were generally very healthy and definitely wouldn't get sick.

Kangxi nodded and continued walking with Mingxiu, pondering who was talking about him. After thinking it over, he felt that Yinreng was the most likely candidate.
