st taste delicious. I want your flesh, to let my parents try it!"Never in the Ninth Prince's experience had he faced such a situation."Don't come here, don't come here!"The Ninth Prince, shouting and...Chapter 1333: The Prosperous World the Crown Prince Desires

When it came to talking about getting married, Niu Bao's voice would get especially loud.

He tilted his head and added, “My grandfather said that thanks to the court having a good prince, last year at the end of the year, the prince came here personally to relieve the disaster. My grandfather even received a bowl of porridge from the prince. My grandfather has kept the bowl the prince used to serve the porridge until now, saying that he wants to keep it as a family heirloom.”

This remark delighted Wan Jiaojiao immensely.

She turned her head to look at Li Chen, her eyes flashing with excitement.

Having been by Li Chen's side for so long, Wan Jiaojiao knew better than anyone that this was exactly what the Crown Prince desired.

The prince doesn't want people to sing his praises or flatter him. What he really wants is for the common people to live better lives – to have clothes to wear, food to eat, and a little extra money left over. That's what the prince truly desires.

Therefore, Wan Jiaojiao hated those who opposed the Crown Prince with all her being.

She couldn't understand, after all this time, a truly good prince who cared for the people had finally appeared. Why did those people still make the crown prince angry every day Those people deserved to die.

Only Wan Jiaojiao knew that she couldn't help the Crown Prince with anything.

I cannot help the Crown Prince with strategic advice, nor do I have the ability to kill those who oppose him.

She could only serve tea and water to the Crown Prince, and give him a massage when he was tired.

And now, hearing and seeing the things that these princes longed to hear and see the most, Wan Jiaojiao was even more excited than Li Chen.

...Li Chen felt deeply satisfied.

Then Niu Bao continued, "Older brother and older sister, are you from the capital Have you seen the Crown Prince What does he look like"

Wàn Jiāojiāo's heart almost melted. She said softly, "Your Highness... Didn't your grandfather tell you"

Niu Bao said with a troubled expression, "Every time I ask Grandpa, he just says that the Crown Prince will shine, that he is the most sacred person in the world. So I'm wondering, isn't the Crown Prince those glazed tiles on the roofs of the big houses in Tongzhou Glazed tiles also glow."

"Pfft."

Wàn Jiāojiāo covered her mouth and giggled.

"The Crown Prince is just an ordinary person. He doesn't shine, and he's not so holy. He has hands and feet, two eyes and a mouth, just like you. He's just not as eloquent as you, nor as smart."

Li Chen stroked Niubao's head and took some hawthorn candy from Wan Jiajiao, saying, "Here you go."

Niu Bao happily took the candy, stuffing it into his mouth while mumbling, "Actually, I still think the new students are better. They come every day with a big group to help Grandpa farm, and they're very kind to me. They even teach me how to write and recite poems, and tell me how beautiful the capital is. When I grow up, I want to be like them too!"

Li Chen asked with interest, "Student Master Who is that"

Niubao tilted his head and said, “Don’t you know this The students of the Imperial Academy… Look, they’re here!”

Following the direction of Niu Bao's finger, Li Chen turned his head and saw a large group of young people in Huangjia student uniforms coming towards them in an imposing manner.

The simple and neat uniforms somehow gave off a strong sense of migrant workers on them.

Each and every one of them was carrying a hoe and a winnowing basket on their backs, with their pants rolled up, and their bodies still covered in mud, obviously just coming out from the fields.

Although drenched in sweat, a genuine smile lit up their face.

The first two people were Fu Minqing and Zou Chenglong.th my neighbors.""Master, why don't you ask those corrupt officials and scoundrels who live in the inner city, with deep courtyards, elaborate decorations, and hundreds of servants at their beck and c...
