With her trousers rolled up, her rosy little feet covered in mud, Su Jinpa emerged from the fields and stood before Li Chen, saying: “Your Highness's visit is just to tease this humble woman, is it not”

Li Chen looked down at Su Jin's pale and tender calves, full of the vitality and elasticity of a young woman. He also saw her feet, even though they were wrapped in mud, he could still see that they were round and cute with their toes. "They're pretty," he praised, "They would be even more charming after washing off the mud."

From a young age to adulthood, boys her own age always treated her like a princess. Everyone was respectful and polite; no one had ever spoken to her so rudely.

Furthermore, in ancient times, there was a strict separation between men and women. A woman's feet were absolutely not to be seen by any man other than her husband. Even after she grew up, this applied to her father as well.

Su Jinpa, though he disliked those restrictions and etiquette, was ultimately shaped by the environment of this era. He was also somewhat shy at this moment.

She hurriedly snatched a handkerchief from the maidservant's hand, covering her calf and foot, and angrily said, "Your Highness doesn't know that it is inappropriate to look"

"In broad daylight, you dare to show yourself. This palace wants to see what's going on."

Li Chen smiled and finished speaking, then turned his head to glance around, his eyes cold.

This little foot, if only it were seen by oneself, it would be nothing. But if other men were to see it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince might very well become enraged.

As expected, all the guards and bystanders nearby had already turned away, afraid to listen or look.

Seeing this, Su Jinpa stomped her feet, snorted, and hurried to wash herself clean. After putting on her stockings, she returned to Li Chen's side.

"These past few days, I've been observing the sweet potatoes you mentioned. The seedlings are growing very quickly. I can't say for sure how much fruit they will produce, but at least this greenhouse is able to grow summer fruits even in cold weather."

Su Jinping's voice was filled with excitement, his eyes sparkling as he said, "This alone is worth promoting nationwide. I wonder how many people will benefit."

Li Chen shook his head and said, "But this, the palace doesn't intend to promote."

Su Jinpa was stunned and chased after, "Why This is a great thing for the country and the people."

"Naive."

Li Chen casually picked a dogtail grass from the edge of the field and twirled it, saying: "You don't even look! This greenhouse of mine is made of copper mirrors, manually polished to transparency. Just this alone cost a hundred workers three months of labor, countless copper mirrors were used to make it. It took an enormous amount of manpower and material resources. In the common people, which peasant could afford it"

Li Chen's words made Su Jinpa suddenly realize. Then she said disappointedly, "That's true... I oversimplified things."

>But having a kind heart is always a good thing.

Li Chen let out a compliment, then grabbed Su Jinping's hand before she could resist and commanded, "Don't move!"

Su Jinpa looked at Li Chen in bewilderment. To her surprise, the dogtail grass from before had somehow been woven into a ring for him.

Putting the ring on Su Jinpa's left ring finger, Li Chen smiled and said, "This is called a ring."

"Isn't it just a ring It's so ugly." Su Jinpa looked at the dogtail grass on her fair and slender finger, mumbling.

"According to the Book of Strange Stories, there's a tradition in a barbaric country in the West where women wear rings on their ring fingers to indicate they are married."

Li Chen chuckled lightly: "Therefore, this is the token I give you. You mustn't lose it."s moment, he helplessly watched as his snake was snatched away by the hawk. It was almost certain that it would end up as a spicy snack for the bird of prey.The anger and rage in Li Yinhu's heart boil...
