Chapter 368 Quietly Departing



When the ships arrived at the naval ports of Guangdong and Guangxi, Kangxi felt that he had finally set foot on land. Countless emotions welled up in his heart. No wonder Fei Yanggu always said that if he stayed on the ship for a long time, he would miss life on land even more.

"Tomorrow, I will be returning!" Kangxi said to Yinzhi and Yinzhi. "You two will remain in Guangdong and Guangxi and await my decree."

Yin and Yin quickly agreed, and Kangxi secretly arranged for the military ports in Guangdong and Guangxi before leaving.

As dawn broke, Kangxi's carriage slowly departed from the naval port. At this time, the soldiers in the port were still asleep. Yinzhi, Yinzhi, and Yinzhi, along with their families, respectfully saw Kangxi off.

"Alright, let's rest for today. The training at the naval port will be handled by Yin," Yin gave the order.

Yin nodded: "Big brother, you should go and rest first. Father and the two mothers have come over, and the two sisters-in-law are too tired."

"Thank you, Tenth Brother!" said Yingenjueluo and Qingyan gratefully.

Back in his room, Qingyan lay down on the bed, feeling uncomfortable all over.

"Little darling, are you tired?" Yin helped her out of her everyday clothes and lay down on the bed with her. "Thank you so much for treating Father and Mother so well."

Qingyan smiled and said, "Isn't that being too formal?"

"No, Father Emperor's visit this time was sudden. If it weren't for your help, we really wouldn't have been able to complete it!" Yin understood that Qingyan had specially transferred a lot of things from Linglong Pavilion; otherwise, it would have been impossible to purchase so many things in just a few days.

"Fourth Brother, if you thank me again, you'll be going too far!" Qingyan nestled against Yin's chest and fell asleep.

Bang bang bang!

Yin had just fallen asleep when he heard three noises outside, and he immediately woke up.

"Little darling, take a nap!" Yin got up and put on his casual clothes. As soon as he opened the door, Su Peisheng and Erlu were already waiting there.

"Your Majesty, the sound is coming from His Majesty's courtyard!" Yinwei said, frowning slightly. "Has the news of Father Emperor's departure been kept secret?"

Erlu quickly replied with a laugh, "All those who knew the truth have been silenced!"

After saying this, Yin nodded and left, heading towards Kangxi's courtyard.

Yin, Yin and Yin met in Kangxi's courtyard. The three of them pretended that Kangxi was still there and sat in the flower hall.

"Brother, all three shots hit the window of Father Emperor's bedroom, so this time it must have been aimed at Father Emperor!" Yin Tui went to the scene and found that the location of the shots was too suspicious.

"Fourth Prince, are you sure?" Yin felt a cold sweat run down his back. If Kangxi hadn't left, the other party might have succeeded this time.

"Now, can you tell who fired the shot?" Yin asked.

When developing firearms, Yin mentioned that each firearm has a unique ballistic trajectory, so each bullet will have a special trajectory after leaving the barrel.

"Yes, it is possible to see, but we still need to make comparisons, which is a lot of work!" Yin mentioned.

Yin looked eager to participate in the comparison work himself, and if he could get the exact name of the person, he hoped to solve the problem by himself.

"How long will it take at the fastest?" Yin poured a cup of hot tea.

"It should take more than ten days, Yin, you must not act rashly!" Yin reminded Yin.

Ugh!

Yin nodded, determined not to act impulsively again. After all, he had to shoulder the responsibility of ensuring the survival of everyone in the naval port, and if he were too rash, there might be even bigger problems.

"Impulsiveness is the devil!" Yin added. "Xiao Guai always says that about E Shuo, but now, E Shuo has changed a lot."

Yin gave an awkward laugh: "Big brother, E'shuo and I have similar tempers, so we're both changing."

After he finished speaking, Yin and Yin looked at each other. It was truly rare for Yin to lower his head.

In Yin's heart, E'shuo's position is not low. It seems that placing E'shuo by Yin's side is the best choice.

"Fourth brother, I'll leave the comparison work to you. Yin, remember not to act impulsively!" Yin glanced at Yin.

"Brother, I understand. Let's take a day off today and give the soldiers a break too. No one has had a rest since Father came!" Yin felt it was time to give them a holiday.

“No, Father Emperor never gave us a holiday while he was alive. If we suddenly give us a holiday, what will outsiders think?” Yin refused.

"Brother is absolutely right, I was wrong!" Yin bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

After taking his leave, Yin went back to the inner chamber and saw that Qingyan was still asleep. He held her in his arms, fully clothed, and fell asleep there.

"My dear, wouldn't it be wonderful if we could calm all of this down?" Yin whispered in her ear.

The children were being looked after by Su Zhu and the nannies, and they should have already had breakfast. Qing Yan spent the most time looking after the children among the princes' wives.

When Qingyan woke up, it was almost lunchtime. She sat up and found him sleeping next to her.

"Little Darling, you're awake?" Qingyan asked quickly as she saw Yin open his dragon eyes.

"Fourth Prince, shall we go out?" Qingyan didn't like staying cooped up in the military port and often sneaked out to play. During the time Kangxi was here, the two of them still went out to play quite often!

“No,” Yin refused. “We will stay in the courtyard today, and we will not have a day off. We will continue training as Father is still in the naval port.”

"You didn't announce the Emperor's departure?" Qingyan's almond-shaped eyes widened. Yin and the others' ability to conceal information had become increasingly sophisticated.

"Yes, at least five days. We can't let the news of Father Emperor leaving the naval port leak out!" Yin whispered in Qingyan's ear.

Those people were all trying to find out Kangxi's whereabouts, and some even wanted to use the servants on the periphery of the courtyard to ask him these questions.

Emperor Kangxi deliberately left some of his entourage behind, instructing them to pretend that he was present.

Five days?!

Qingyan laughed heartily. There were many spies here, and it would take a lot of effort from Yin, Yin and Yin to prevent outsiders from getting any information.

"Yes, so for the next five days, we'll have to stay in the courtyard!" Yin didn't plan to go out. "Furthermore, my elder brother hopes to compare some bullets. This morning, Father Emperor's courtyard was shot at!"

Qingyan was stunned. Those people's actions against Kangxi hadn't changed at all; on the contrary, they had intensified. No wonder Kangxi would resort to this method.

“Alright, I’ll do the comparison!” Qingyan nodded, took the bullets from Yin’s hand, threw them into the space, and used the instrument to compare them.

"No need to rush to give it to me, let's have our meal first." Yin changed his clothes and asked Su Peisheng to bring the children over.
