The aggrieved Eighth Prince watched Princess Jinyi jump for joy, and wondered if he could take advantage of his sister's favor and leave the palace. Unexpectedly, when he looked at his mother pitifully, she avoided him.

The pitiful Eighth Prince sat listlessly on the chair, watching Princess Jinyi repeatedly picking up gifts and explaining their origins to the Emperor. After a moment's thought, he stood up, moved closer to Princess Jinyi, and asked, "Sister, is there any difference between taking a boat and a carriage?"

Turning to look at the Eighth Prince, Princess Jinyi revealed a helpless expression and said, "People who have never been on a boat will get seasick, and the vomiting and diarrhea might even be fatal."

Listening to Princess Jinyi's words, the Eighth Prince knew that his elder sister wouldn't take him either. Then he said with a smile, "Don't you get seasick, elder sister? This trip to Jiangnan is also her first time riding a boat."

Princess Jinyi said to the Eighth Prince with a smile: "Maybe I was born to drift on the sea. I didn't feel anything after I got on the boat." Then she flicked the Eighth Prince's forehead and warned him with a dangerous look not to mess with her.

After a brief confrontation, the two black sesame dumplings returned to their well-behaved appearance in front of their parents.

The next day, after class, the Eighth Prince sat listlessly at his desk, his chin propped up in his hand. Sheng Shu and Yu Jiaxing packed their bags and came over. Sheng Shu asked, "Does the Eighth Prince have any problems?"

With a sigh, the Eighth Prince spoke of his future plans to leave the palace. Sheng Shu and Yu Jiaxing looked at each other, and Yu Jiaxing suggested, "If Your Highness wishes to leave the palace and take a trip around the capital, I have an idea. Whether it's going to Jiangnan or sailing overseas, I..."

After hearing what Yu Jiaxing said, the Eighth Prince's eyes lit up and he asked, "As long as I can leave the palace, even if it's just to stroll around the capital. You don't know, I have never left this palace since I was born. I can see the palace is separated from the outside by a gate, but I don't know what's happening outside."

Sheng Shu wanted to interrupt Yu Jiaxing the moment he heard him, but it was too late. Seeing Yu Jiaxing about to express his own ideas, Sheng Shu quickly said, "Eighth Prince, you can leave the palace and live separately once you reach adulthood. You can then live outside the palace every day."

Glancing at Sheng Shu, the Eighth Prince wanted to say that he was about to become the crown prince, so there was no chance he would leave the palace. However, if he said that, he would be punished. He stared at Yu Jiaxing and said, "Don't worry about Zhong Qi. If Yun Feng has any ideas, please tell us quickly. Even if you can't leave the palace, this prince will not blame you, and will not betray you."

Since the Eighth Prince had said so, Sheng Shu could no longer stop him. Yu Jiaxing glanced at Sheng Shu and said, "Your Highness is still in the prime of his studies. He should see firsthand the agricultural work. If he can personally experience it, he will better understand the suffering of the people."

The Eighth Prince slapped Sheng Shu's thigh hard, and Sheng Shu felt that his thigh must have turned red. Then the Eighth Prince stood up and said, "Indeed, agriculture and sericulture are the foundation of a country. Seeing is believing, and practicing is practicing."

After thinking for a moment, the Eighth Prince patted Yu Jiaxing on the shoulder and said, "Not bad, Yunfeng." He picked up the fan on the table and handed it to Yu Jiaxing, "Here's a reward."

Yu Jiaxing, who had just finished scanning the room, realized that he had gotten into trouble. He looked at Sheng Shu for help. Sheng Shu lowered his head and looked at his thighs, not looking at Yu Jiaxing. He thought to himself, I can't stop it, I really can't stop it.
