Abstract: Let $G$ be a reductive group over a commutative ring $k$. In this article, we prove that the adjoint quotient $adqG$ is stable under base change. Moreover, if $G$ has a maximal torus $T$, then the adjoint quotient of the torus $T$ by its Weyl group will be isomorphic to $adqG$. Then we focus on the semisimple simply connected group $G$ of the constant type. In this case, $adqG$ is isomorphic to the Weil restriction $undersetD/speckprodaf{f}_D^1$, where $D$ is the Dynkin scheme of $G$. Then we prove that for such $G$, the Steinberg's cross-section can be defined over $k$ if $G$ is quasi-split and without $A_{2m}$-type components
