The eldest prince's little face was wrinkled, and he looked at Su Youyi painfully.

Su Youyi was a little apologetic, this time he was the eldest prince, he didn't have to write this homework.

Fortunately, the emperor didn't ask for the length of the words, but she wrote the first five-word quatrain to prevaricate the past, and the emperor couldn't say anything about her.

The eldest prince said with a bitter face: "Father, can you wait until you finish planting rice before starting?" We haven't had time to write lately, and the field is waiting for us! ”

Su Youyi couldn't help but want to laugh, listening to the tone of the eldest prince, he was a farmer.

The emperor couldn't help laughing, the corners of his mouth trembled, and finally nodded, "Okay, just wait for you to finish planting rice." I heard that you didn't plant rice before entering the palace, can you teach the prince well? ”

The second half of the sentence was said to Su Youyi, and Su Youyi immediately said: "Although the slave doesn't know, you can learn with the eldest prince." Xiao Kiko: They will have some, and everyone will discuss it. ”

Su Youyi also wanted to find someone who would teach the eldest prince, but the temperament of the eldest prince was not something that anyone could surrender, and Xue Daoming had been the eldest prince's master for so long, and he had not been able to convince him so far.

How much more is a man who grows rice?

Rather than handing over the eldest prince to others to learn, Su Youyi would rather teach the eldest prince while learning herself, just in case, she discussed with the emperor, "If you encounter difficulties, the slave maid will send someone to the Qianqing Palace to ask Gonggong Gao, does the emperor think it will be done?" ”

Asking Gao Qishou is equivalent to asking the Pope, even if the emperor doesn't understand, he will let Gao Qishou find a professional person to guide them.

This can not only teach the eldest prince well, but also allow her to avoid contact with herself, Su Youyi's abacus is really loud, is she so afraid that the queen and the virtuous concubine will harm her?

That's fine.

The emperor happily agreed, "Yes." ”

……

I heard that the emperor came here with the eldest prince, and the second prince and the third prince were busy getting up and waiting for the emperor to come and review.

The emperor went to the second prince in order, only to see that the flower bed outside the courtyard had been pulled clean, and two rice seedlings were planted in a boxy jar surrounded by bluestone.

The second prince was holding a water scoop to pour water into the flower bed, and the servants gathered in a group on the side, wiping his sweat for a while, and rolling the corners of his clothes for a while-

The corners of the second prince's clothes are clean, there are no mud stains at all, do you need to roll them?

Seeing the emperor coming up, the second prince put the water scoop as if relieved, and stepped forward to greet the emperor, "The son asks the emperor for his father." ”

The emperor looked to the side, a few palace maids in brocade clothes looked like they were from the harem, and the second prince always had the palace maids sent by the virtuous concubines to act on behalf of him, and the palace people he arranged for the princes retreated.

Concubine Xian was very confused at this point, she thought that she had the right to discipline her own princes, but she didn't think that if this was really the case, why did the emperor take these princes away from his biological mother since he was a child?

Even the three princes of the queen are no exception.

The emperor's eyes were not good, and the palace maids did not understand what they meant, and they did not dare to get up on the ground, and the third prince said: "Father, the son is learning to plant rice, and his appearance is not neat." Please sit in the house of the father, and the son will come after changing his clothes. ”

At a young age, he speaks in a very sophisticated manner, so that people can't find the slightest fault.

This looks like a virtuous concubine, more like Li Gelao, but not so much like the emperor.

The emperor said: "No need, I just came to see how you planted rice." What are you just doing? ”

The second prince arched his hand and said: "Erchen is watering the soil, and Erchen heard that planting rice is not as good as planting next to it, and there must be more water." Therefore, after Erchen planted the rice seedlings, he kept watering them here. ”

The emperor's gaze swept from his face to his feet, and the uppers of his shoes were also clean, not at all like they had been watering.

The second prince was a little cramped and shrank his feet back.

Compared with his appearance, the emperor thinks that the appearance of the eldest prince catching roosters in the mud is extremely cute.

The emperor looked at the palace maids in gorgeous clothes, "You serve the second prince, didn't anyone tell him to water the fields before planting rice seedlings?" ”

He has always been strict, the second prince hurriedly bowed his head, and several palace maids fell to the ground in a panic, "The emperor forgives the sin, the slaves and maids said to the second prince, but the second prince said that the book says that the tree is planted first and then watered, so the rice seedlings must be planted first!" ”

"He's still young and ignorant, aren't you all sensible? The slave who came from the little master, what do I want you to do? ”

The emperor glanced at Gao Qishou, and the latter immediately screamed: "Come on, drag these palace maids who are not effective in teaching the second prince down, and each of them will play twenty boards!" ”

The second prince's face was difficult to look at, but he didn't expect that his stubborn approach was wrong, and it made the emperor lose his temper so much.

He raised his head in trepidation, "Father, don't be angry, did your son do something wrong?" ”

was different from what he imagined, the emperor did not lose his temper with him, but said patiently: "It's not that you did something wrong, it's that you made a mistake of taking it for granted." It's good to read more, but if you look at the principle of planting trees and think that planting rice is the same, that's wrong. ”

The emperor led him to the side of the flower bed, "The rice in the south is planted in the paddy fields, this is dry land, and it must be irrigated first." Wait until the mud and water are fully integrated before you can plant rice, you see-"

The emperor stretched out his hand and pulled it out, but without force, the two sparse rice seedlings fell.

The second prince blushed.

The emperor said: "You are still young, and the mistakes of the people who taught you are also the mistakes of the people who taught you, so I punished them." But you can't rely on the teachings of others all your life, you have to learn your own skills, do you? ”

The second prince nodded vigorously, "Erchen must study hard and show the rice seedlings to his father!" ”

The emperor touched his head, "Study hard, I will go to your third brother to have a look." Also, farming should look like farming, this flower bed is too small, and you are too cleanly dressed. ”

The second prince hurriedly surrendered his hand, "Yes, the son will change it!" ”

The third prince also made a nondescript appearance, like the second prince, deliberately waiting for the emperor to come up before pretending.

As soon as he saw the cleanliness of his clothes, shoes and socks, he knew that everything in the field was done by the minions, and the three princes were just watching from the sidelines.

Although the queen did not send too many people to help the three princes, the three princes were young and frail, and the servants below were experts in rice planting, so they could only cultivate a small piece of land in the courtyard in a foolish manner.

The emperor originally didn't expect the third prince to do manual work at this age, but just wanted him to take this opportunity to exercise and exercise, so as not to be fed into a ball by the queen.

The white and chubby milk doll looks good, but in fact, the body is very weak, and it can fall down when the wind blows, and it is still a healthy child like the eldest prince, and it is reassuring to look at.

He also patiently taught a few words, and it was not too early to toss down, and Gao Qi carried the imperial belt to send the emperor back to the palace.

On the way back to the palace, Gao Qishou said: "The emperor saw the situation of the three princes planting rice today, do you feel satisfied?" ”
