In late July, Emperor Kangxi moved from the traveling palace into a tent on the grassland.
The sky was wide, the clouds sparse, and the heat was bearable.
He sat behind a desk, with the Crown Prince kneeling before him.
"Crown Prince, you have disappointed me greatly!" Emperor Kangxi, dressed in bright yellow, seemed even more dazzling against the sunlight streaming through the window.
The Crown Prince looked up, then lowered his head again, somewhat helplessly said, "This son does not know where he has erred. Please, Imperial Father, enlighten me."
"I'm too ashamed to speak of it!" Emperor Kangxi snorted coldly and threw a folded document over.
This document was a secret memo, unsigned, and it was unclear who had presented it.
After reading the document, the Crown Prince sighed, "This son is not aware of this matter... there must be some misunderstanding."
