Chen Fan sighed: "If there is such a possibility, are they bound together?"

"To some extent yes, there are families that don't just tie up one."

Chen Fan patted her on the shoulder: "Take it easy for now, after all, there is no shadow yet. Someday there will be a decree, let's think about what to do."

The prince and his party walked near the brick and tile factory and saw smoke coming from the two brick kilns.

"Don't they need to plant rice seedlings?" the prince asked casually.

"How many fields does each family have? Even if the fields are busy, they can pay for help. The work of burning bricks cannot be stopped." Zhang Ci explained.

The prince didn't ask any more questions, and rode his horse forward slowly.

When the people planting rice seedlings in the field saw the prince, they saluted from a distance, and then continued planting rice seedlings.

"Why is there still so much rice unharvested?"

"It's all early rice, which can be cut after a while, and then transplanted into late rice seedlings. At this time, the rice seedlings transplanted at this time are exactly middle-aged rice, which are in rotation with wheat and rapeseed."

The prince sneered: "You speak clearly and logically, like an experienced old farmer."

Zhang Ci saluted: "I am now a farmer with three years of farming experience."

Prince: "..."

Towards evening, they returned to Xiangjun's mansion and entered the study.

"Girls are good at calligraphy and painting, how about your level?" The prince looked at Chen Zhongyan and the others.

The court ladies brought the four treasures of the study and paints.Before the five boys could take a good breath, they received a bunch of homework.

The boys glanced at each other and chose two large sheets of paper: one for calligraphy and one for painting.Hanging almost takes up a wall.

All are ink and wash, no pigments, landscapes and plants; the characters are all big characters, running script, regular script, and cursive script.

The crown prince looked at Chen Zhonglin: "After only two or three years of learning, I can write such smooth running script."

Chen Zhonglin saluted: "Eldest sister and brother-in-law taught well."

"It is indeed a good teaching." The prince was not stingy with his praise.Chen Zhongzhu's handwriting is open and closed, majestic and imposing; Chen Zhongmei is not as handsome as a boy, but his handwriting is dignified and majestic; Chen Zhongliang is only nine years old, and his writing skills are not weak at all.Needless to say, Chen Zhongyan's wild grass was full of madness.

"Do you also play a piece together?" The prince made a second request.

Chen Zhongyan said: "This needs to be changed."

The prince was puzzled.When he saw the big drum, he pursed his lips.Playing at home, even used a big drum.

The girls also came with their instruments.Chen Zhongzhu beat the drum first, and the prince immediately felt that he had come to the battlefield.Then everyone played a magnificent piece of music together.

The prince was shocked.

At the end of the song, he clapped his hands: "It's amazing that a family can form an orchestra."

Chen Zhongyan smiled lightly: "There are so many people, it's fun."

"What do you usually play?"

The children answered one by one: skipping rope and kicking shuttlecock, hopscotch, eagle catching chicken, cat catching mouse...

The prince felt very strange: "Playing an eagle to catch a chicken?"

The children played the eagle and the chicken in the yard.

"The children in the academy like these games very much." Chen Zhongzhu said.

"The children in the village often play together." Chen Zhonglin followed.

The prince said "reward", and the maids brought five long boxes and put them in the hands of the children.

He is also a water master.

The prince went to Kuangyuan, and everyone opened the box: it was five whips.

The children's eyes lit up.

Chen Yue said with a smile: "Mo Jian and the others are going to be busy."

In the evening, the prince called Chen Zhongyan over.

"Are you going home with me?"

Chen Zhongyan didn't answer directly: "I want to wait for the emperor's will."

"When I return to the palace, I will go and tell my father to bring you back."

"Thank you, brother." Chen Zhongyan saluted, "I like life here very much, and I still want to live here in my heart."

"Perhaps father also believes that you can live happily here, so he didn't ask you to return to the palace for the time being. But you still have to go back after all."

Chen Zhongyan was silent for a while, and said: "I am only 11 years old, and I can go back in a few years. Please, brother, please greet my father on my behalf."

He picked up the box on the table and said, "Brother Huang, please help me pass it to Father Huang. I made this with my own hands."

The prince opened the box, and there were handfuls of incense inside.

"Is this incense straight?" Ordinary incense is either in bulk or in trays.

"We made it straight, called Xianxiang." Chen Zhongyan said.

"How often do you try to make new things?"

Chen Zhongyan nodded: "Changing the ingredients and processing methods will produce many wonderful changes, which is very interesting."

"It's really interesting."

On the third day, thousands of soldiers loaded wheat, sweet potato vines, etc. into carts and shipped them to ships.The prince bid farewell to everyone, and the fleet left in a mighty manner.

The children returned to the main room, sitting up and down.Zhang Ci smiled: "They all came back after hoeing three acres of land?"

Everyone nodded blankly.

"Take a good night's sleep after lunch, and do whatever you want in the afternoon." Chen Fan wanted them to relax.

She and Zhang Ci went back to the room, and he also leaned on the chair.

Chen Fan laughed at him: "You also planted three acres of land?"

"I planted five acres." Zhang Ci was weary.

"What are you nervous about?"

Zhang Ci hugged him: "There's nothing to be nervous about, but it's very nervous. Now when I relax, I feel that I don't have much strength."

"I don't know how he will report to the Holy One." Chen Fan was uncertain.

"He looked at it and asked about it. There is nothing shameful in Changping Township, so let him report it. I just don't know how the Holy One will treat us."

A month later, Eunuch Xiao came and read out a marriage decree.

Chen Fan felt as if his second boot had dropped to the ground, Zhang Ci's shoulders loosened and tensed up again.Everyone thanked the Holy Spirit for his grace.

Xiao Gonggong happily received a big red envelope, without stopping, he placed the betrothal gift in the courtyard, handed it over, and left.

Chen Yue and Chen Zhongyan looked indifferent, while the other children were still in a state of shock.

Why did you suddenly get married?

Chen Ying was confused: why her?

Chen Zhongzhu kept staring at the imperial decree, as if he could not read.

"What grade is Prince Liangdi?" Chen Zhongliang was at a loss.

In fact, everyone knows it, from officials of various ministries to concubines in the palace, everyone knows it.I'm so shocked now that I can't react to anything.

"The crown prince's official wife is the crown prince's concubine. The crown prince's concubines can have two concubines, the third rank, and six Liangyuans, the fourth rank." Chen Zhongyan said.

"Liang Di is second only to the Crown Princess?" Chen Zhongliang wanted to confirm again, Chen Zhongyan nodded.

Everyone sat in the hall in silence.

Chen Ying took a deep breath and said with a smile: "I'm already 13 years old, and I've reached the age to discuss marriage. It's the Chen family's great honor to be married to the prince, and it's also a great gift to me, Chen Ying."

You don't need to tell your family members this kind of cliché.

Chen Fan stood up: "Let's go back to the room." She took the girl back to the yard.

As soon as the door was closed, Chen Fan couldn't bear it anymore, hugged Chen Fan and began to cry.
