"I will not hold you responsible for this matter, but you are responsible for investigating the Lin family's crimes yourself. I want a result. I will give you half a month. During this half month, you do not need to come to the Qianqing Palace every day."

Upon hearing this, the Crown Prince suddenly looked up: "Father, I know I was wrong."

Kangxi thought to himself, "It's too late."

After sending the Crown Prince away, Kangxi couldn't help but start to think. The Crown Prince was indecisive and acted on emotion. Could he be a good emperor?

The Crown Prince emerged from the Qianqing Palace in a daze, and the news spread in no time.

When Yinzhen found out, he was giving prenatal education to the child in Tong Cheng'er's belly. Tong Cheng'er overheard a bit and immediately asked, "Father Emperor makes the Crown Prince go to the Qianqing Palace to read memorials every day. What did he do to make Father Emperor angry?"

Yinzhen didn't hide anything from her and told her the whole story.

After listening, Tong Cheng'er had only one thought: how could the Crown Prince be even more confused than she was?

He dared to protect the guilty even in cases where the emperor filed a complaint. For a crown prince to disregard the law like this would surely leave Emperor Kangxi with the impression that he was incapable of fulfilling his duties.

"Does the Crown Prince truly no longer want to be the Crown Prince?"

Yinzhen was taken aback upon hearing this, not expecting that she understood things even better than the Crown Prince.

After a moment of stunned silence, he laughed: "Who says otherwise! Perhaps he really doesn't want to be the crown prince anymore!"

Speaking of being the Crown Prince, even Yinzhen felt exhausted just looking at it. Perhaps it's a case of those involved being blinded by their own perspective, while bystanders see things more clearly.

"Father Emperor is indeed going to great lengths for the Crown Prince, but I don't know if the Crown Prince will appreciate it."

Yinzhen thought for a moment and concluded that the Crown Prince probably wouldn't appreciate it.

After all, those involved are often blinded by their own perspective.
