Daily life in the academy

Unable to bear Bai Zhi's pleading, Ye Yanliang had no choice but to tell her everything in a low voice.

"You know, the emperor has quite a few descendants, and a fair number of royal relatives, but this Prince Yan is the only one who has received the emperor's favor. Why is that?"

He had been reluctant to speak at first, and now he was even keeping it a secret. Bai Zhi couldn't wait to nudge him with her elbow: "Brother Ye, please speak quickly."

"There are rumors that Prince Yan looks very similar to the deceased former crown prince. The emperor had a deep brotherly bond with the former crown prince when they were young, and now that he sees the younger generation who looks so similar, he dotes on them."

Bai Zhi was puzzled: "But what does this have to do with everyone being afraid of Yan Qingchen?"

Ye Yanliang didn't notice the change in Bai Zhi's address, immersed in the story: "Let's talk about something that happened half a year ago. Prince Yan and Young Master Xiao had a big fight in Tianxiang Pavilion over a prostitute named Yunxiang. Young Master Xiao was beaten and bedridden for three months. During this time, I heard that Princess Zhaoyue went to the palace to ask the Queen Mother for justice. However, the Queen Mother happened to go to Anguo Temple, and the princess went to see the Emperor. As a result, the Emperor ordered Young Master Xiao to be confined to his room for another three months to reflect on his mistakes."

Bai Zhi: "Then Yan Qingchen didn't receive any punishment at all?"

"Not only was he not punished, the emperor even sent the imperial physician to treat the prince's injuries." After saying this, Ye Yanliang realized that Bai Zhi had actually addressed Prince Yan by his full name, and quickly whispered to dissuade him, "Brother Bai, if you address Prince Yan by his full name so recklessly, be careful he'll blame you."

Bai Zhi raised an eyebrow, ignoring his cautiousness and continuing to inquire, "Then who is Young Master Xiao? From what you said, Brother Ye, he has the princess as his backer?"

Ye Yanliang sighed: "Master Xiao, whose real name is Xiao Qingyu, is the eldest son of Princess Zhaoyue and the Minister of Revenue, Lord Xiao Xiao."

Bai Zhi: "The princess's son... those two families are cousins, so why is their relationship so strained? Could it be that our prince looks down on Xiao Qingyu's status? Doesn't want to take him out to play?"

Ye Yanliang: "The Xiao family has a strong background. Prime Minister Xiao who retired three years ago was Xiao Qingyu's biological grandfather. Many officials in the court came from Prime Minister Xiao's school." For some reason, Ye Yanliang suddenly found it very awkward to call him "young master" every time, so he couldn't help but change his address.

"Brother Ye, you know a lot, don't you?" Bai Zhi couldn't help but tease, "Do you also like to gossip with your classmates when you have nothing to do?"

Ye Yanliang tilted his head: "Gossip? What does gossip mean?"

"Um... gossip means just chatting about interesting things, like what we just did."

"I see." Ye Yanliang shook his head shyly. "Actually, it's because my aunt opened a tavern. I would often go there to help her when I had nothing to do. I would often chat with guests coming and going, so I knew more about the place."

Bai Zhi pulled back her hand from Ye Yanliang's shoulder and said seriously, "But I don't think Yan Qingchen is as scary as the rumors say. At least he won't bully people for no reason. Just like how he beat up Zhang Yongan this morning, it was because he was so hateful. People like him deserve to be beaten. I even bumped into Yan Qingchen at that time, but you see, he didn't do anything to me."

She turned around and saw Ye Yanliang listening attentively. She raised her hand and patted his shoulder: "So, there's no need to be so reserved. Maybe they don't even take a small shrimp like us seriously."

"Oh, no more talking. I'm starving. Let's go eat."

Bai Zhi quickened her pace and walked forward. As she passed the corner, she secretly glanced over to see the corner of a green dress that flashed by. She wondered if this wave of goodwill could be achieved...

After Bai Zhi and Ye Yanliang walked away quickly, three figures staggered to the position where the two were just now.

Mu Bailian whistled, "Wenzhe, did you hear that? That little dwarf is quite courageous. Not only did he touch our Prince Yan, he even dared to call him by his name and said that our Prince Yan is not scary at all."

Wenzhe glanced at Mu Bailian woodenly and took a half-step distance from him. "I just have bad luck today, I'm not deaf."

Yan Qingchen looked at him with disdain and didn't bother to pay attention to him.

No idea...

Mu Bailian's evil intentions gradually rose. He slowly moved closer to Yan Qingchen, his eyes glancing at his flat chest intentionally or unintentionally. Just as he was about to approach the dining hall, he suddenly reached out and slapped Yan Qingchen's chest, shouting, "Finally, I got to touch it."

Yan Qingchen clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and a violent look gradually rose in his eyes: "Mu! Bai! Lian! If you have the guts, don't run away."

Mu Bailian quickly slipped into the crowd, saying proudly, "We're all brothers, so what if I touch you a few times? It feels really good."

Yan Qingchen's brows were furrowed, and a low pressure was shrouded around him, which scared the people around him. The crowd in the dining hall automatically dispersed to make way for these three enemies.

Originally thought that with the crowd to hide him, he wouldn't die too miserably if he committed such a humiliating crime, but he didn't expect that everyone was too cowardly. Seeing that the situation was not good, Mu Bailian didn't even bother to get his breakfast and was about to run away. How could Yan Qingchen let him go? He took a few steps to catch up with him and kicked him.

Mu Bailian was also a martial artist, so how could he be kicked so easily? He dodged and kept trying to be nice: "Brother Yan, this is the dining hall. If Master Xie sees us, he will definitely scold us. Let's talk it out nicely. Let's talk it out nicely."

"Let you be a humiliator? It's too late." Yan Qingchen threw another punch.

"Oh, don't hit me in the face, the girls will be sad."

"Wenzhe, please help me persuade Brother Yan. If my face is ruined and my legs are broken, you will have to carry me home today."

Wenzhe retreated further after being shouted at by him: "Don't worry, I will definitely send you home safely."

"You..." You are so unreliable.

Yan Qingchen was obviously serious and was obviously pissed off by him. Mu Bailian would definitely not be able to get through today without some injuries on his body, but Brother Yan was always ruthless. Mu Bailian regretted for a moment why he was so impatient. It was all because of that dwarf... If it weren't for him, he wouldn't have been so itchy.

Baizhi was hiding in the corner, eating steamed buns and watching the show. These three people were really interesting. I don’t know how they got together. Thinking of the final ending of the three people in the original book... I couldn’t help but sigh.

"Hey, who do you think is making such a fuss? Mu Bailian, are you finally going to turn against this barbarian? Congratulations! How about becoming friends with me, Xiao? At least you won't be in such a mess."

Xiao Qingyu, holding a folding fan, walked forward like a gentleman and stood in front of the dining hall.

Mu Bailian was distracted by his sudden voice and was punched on the left shoulder. He couldn't help but groan and begged for mercy, "Brother Yan, I was wrong. There are so many people here, please give me some face."

Yan Qingchen glared at him and said coldly, "A stink bug suddenly appeared. It stinks and makes an unpleasant sound. This prince is too lazy to deal with it."

Xiao Qingyu's expression changed, and he pointed his fan at Yan Qingchen: "Who are you calling a stink bug?"
