Chapter 744: A woman disguised as a man, a proton, and a foolish marquis (19)
Originally, scholars should be highly respected, but since that scholar was a homosexual, people's attitude towards him was different.
In this feudal ancient times, how can a man like another man? Moreover, he has to do that kind of thing.
This is simply heresy.
After the man finished speaking, he scooped another spoonful of crushed ice into his mouth and continued, "You guys! Stay away from him. What a rubbish scholar. He has read so much that his mother is so angry that she has died. And he still doesn't repent."
Hua Yanliang could no longer hear what the man said afterwards.
His mind was filled with the word "Duanxiu" and the book.
After leaving the stall and returning to the carriage, Hua Yanliang whispered a few words to his followers.
After hearing this, the attendant was horrified, "My Lord..."
"Shut up and do what I say."
Hua Yanliang scolded lightly and then lowered the curtain.
The attendant thought of the third prince, sighed, and ran to a study.
He had been with his master since he was a child, so how could he not understand his master's thoughts? However, this road was too difficult to walk.
Although the follower was helpless, he quickly bought the book, held it in his arms and ran out.
He handed the book to Hua Yanliang, who took it and flipped through it carefully.
The contents of the book shocked and confused him, he had never thought that such a thing would happen.
Hua Yanliang's lips moved slightly, but no sound came out, as if he was restrained by an invisible force.
His eyes flashed with an indescribable emotion, as if he wanted to express something, but in the end he chose to remain silent.
Despite this, the tips of his ears, which had turned completely red, revealed the ups and downs in his heart.
The carriage was moving slowly, and when it was about to arrive at Yu Yan's residence, Hua Yanliang suddenly came back to his senses as if he had just woken up from a dream.
He hurriedly stopped the driver and ordered, "Turn around and go back home immediately!"
The follower was confused and didn't understand why his master suddenly changed his mind, but he didn't dare to disobey the order, so he could only turn the carriage around and go back.
After an incense stick of time had passed, Hongye came to Yu Yan and said softly, "Your Highness, Lord Hua said that he will play with ants in his home today, so he will not come to play with you."
Yu Yan frowned and asked in confusion, "He's playing with ant nests at home?"
"Yes, he was almost at our house, but halfway through he wanted to play in an ant nest, so he ran back."
Hongye nodded nonchalantly.
Lord Hua has the mentality of a child. He thinks whatever he wants and it is normal for him to run back home halfway.
After listening to her, Yu Yan nodded, asked her to leave, opened the secret room in the house, and walked along the secret passage to another room.
The place is already full of people, some of them are the forces established by Yu Yan in the North Wing, and the other part are the people under Hua Yanliang.
After this period of time, they have been completely conquered by Yu Yan and are wholeheartedly loyal to her.
When everyone found out that Hua Yanliang didn't come today, they felt a little strange.
But I didn't bring it up, thinking I would ask Hua Yanliang when I see him tomorrow.
Yu Yan looked around, sat on the stool, and continued to discuss things with everyone.

Late at night, Hua Yanliang sat under the candlelight, quietly flipping through the book in front of him.
His cheeks were flushed red and he looked like a boiled crab.
However, his eyes remained focused and serious, and he seemed completely immersed in the world of the book.
He turned the pages one by one, reading every word carefully, trying to understand the meaning.
It was quiet late at night. After an unknown amount of time, Hua Yanliang reluctantly put the book under his pillow and prepared to go to sleep.
The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone into the room, he was awakened by a hurried knock on the door.
When he opened the door, his panicked attendant told him a shocking news - the Northern Wing Kingdom was going to form an alliance with the Southern Border Kingdom.
This sudden change shocked him greatly, especially when he heard that the two parties in the marriage were Yu Chen, the third prince of the Southern Border Kingdom, and Qi Yunchu, the second daughter of the Northern Wing Prime Minister's Mansion. His mind exploded and went blank in an instant.
After coming to his senses, he immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.
Without time to think, he only had time to put on a coat and hurriedly ran to Yu Yan's residence.
Along the way, he was anxious and walked quickly, his heart full of anxiety and uneasiness.
About an incense stick later, he finally arrived at the door of Yu Yan's residence.
At this time, he was already panting and sweating profusely, but he didn't even bother to rest for a moment and rushed directly into the mansion.
Yu Yan was very surprised to see his miserable state, and asked hurriedly: "Why did you come here suddenly? Why didn't you even take a carriage, but just ran here on foot?"
However, Hua Yanliang did not answer her question, but stared at her straightly, his eyes full of confusion and nervousness. He swallowed hard and asked in a trembling voice: "You...are you really going to marry Qi Yunchu?"
Yu Yan nodded and replied, "Yes, the Third Prince of the Southern Border Kingdom is indeed going to marry Qi Yunchu."
After getting the accurate answer, Hua Yanliang instantly felt disheartened, his face lost all color, and he seemed to have lost his soul.
Yu Yan looked at him and suddenly smiled, with a sly light in her eyes. "You are sweating all over and your clothes are baggy. If someone saw you, they would definitely say you are even more stupid. Come on, I will take you to change your clothes."
As she spoke, she reached out and took Hua Yanliang's hand and walked towards the inner room.
Hua Yanliang was a little dazed and didn't realize what was happening until his coat was easily taken off by Yu Yan, then he came to his senses.
However, things did not end there. Yu Yan's hand continued to reach for his underwear, as if she was going to take it off as well.
Hua Yanliang's eyes widened, his face flushed, he tightly grasped Yu Yan's hand, and his voice squeezed out from between his teeth, "What are you doing?"
Yu Yan smiled slightly, with a hint of teasing in her eyes, and said softly: "What do you think?"
Her hands freed themselves from Hua Yanliang's grasp, and her fingers gently slid across his taut abdomen.
In an instant, Hua Yanliang's body became more tense and his breathing became rapid.
He grabbed Yu Yan's hand again, his eyes red, with a hint of grievance and anger, and whispered: "You know I like you, right? Then what do you think of me? A shameful lover?"
After saying this, it becomes much easier to say the following words.
His tears fell like money, and he spoke intermittently, "I... I have read books and know about this. Besides, I... I am willing to be the one under pressure. But, can you please not marry someone else? If you are afraid of hearing those rumors, I can fake my death and hide after the matter is settled. As long as I can stay by your side, that's enough..."
