Chapter 732: A woman disguised as a man, a proton, and a foolish marquis (7)
Three days later, the sun was shining and the weather was perfect.
Yu Yan was wearing a light ink-colored robe, a jade crown on her head, and a jade pendant around her waist, looking exceptionally elegant and handsome.
Hongye followed her, and the two of them got on the carriage together, preparing to go to the eldest princess's mansion for a banquet.
The carriage was moving slowly on the street. Suddenly, there was a noise ahead and the road was blocked.
"what happened?"
Yu Yan frowned and turned to look at Hongye, "Go and see what's going on in front?"
"Yes, Your Highness."
Hongye responded, jumped off the carriage, and trotted forward.
Not long after, Hongye hurried back and reported to Yu Yan, "Your Highness, it was Prince Ning who stopped Lord Hua's carriage and wouldn't let them leave."
Hongye was afraid that Yu Yan would not remember who Prince Ning was, so she added, "Prince Ning is the one who gave us money last time."
"I see."
Yu Yan chuckled, a sly look flashing in her eyes.
She gently opened the curtains and looked at the scene in front of her from afar.
Ning Cheng was seen riding on a tall horse, stopping Hua Yanliang's carriage, his face full of contempt and disdain.
Hua Yanliang sat in the carriage, looking at a loss, obviously not knowing what to do about Ning Cheng's behavior.
Yu Yan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and said softly to Hong Ye: "Let's go and take a look."
After saying that, she got off the carriage lightly and walked forward.
When Yu Yan approached, she heard Ning Cheng say to Hua Yanliang in a mocking tone: "You are a fool, why are you going to a flower viewing party? I'm afraid you won't know whether a flower looks good or not if I give you one!"
Hua Yanliang's face became even more helpless, and tears welled up in his eyes. He loudly retorted: "You are talking nonsense. I am not a fool."
As soon as these words were spoken, the people who were watching the fun around burst into laughter.
Who in the whole capital doesn't know that Hua Yanliang is a fool? His mental state is not even as good as that of an eight-year-old child.
Ning Cheng sneered, and when he thought of the money he had given away for nothing, he looked at Hua Yanliang with even more impatience.
It's all because of this fool, otherwise he wouldn't have lost so much money.
"Okay, go back now! You'll only make a fool of yourself if you go to the flower viewing party. You might as well go home and poke ant nests for fun!"
When Hua Yanliang heard the word "ant nest", his attention was instantly diverted and he felt a little moved.
Seeing this, the servant who was following beside him thought it was not good, so he hurriedly said, "My Lord, have you forgotten what the old lady told you?"
Hua Yanliang said "oh" and gave up the idea of going home to cause trouble.
When Ning Cheng saw the interaction between the master and servant, he knew that it was Old Madam Hua who asked Hua Yanliang to attend the flower-viewing banquet.
This is not surprising. Ever since Hua Yanliang reached the age to get married, Old Madam Hua has been worried.
Hua Yanliang was also actively invited to participate in various banquets in the capital.
Although Hua Yanliang is a fool, what if there is a blind woman, or a woman who wants to marry a rich man, and she is willing to marry him? After all, he is still a marquis!
It’s a pity that he can’t attend the flower viewing banquet today.
Ning Cheng was secretly pleased with himself, an evil smile appeared on his face, and he was about to speak, when at this moment, a clear and pleasant voice came from the side.
"Prince Ning, what a coincidence! I meet you again. What are you doing? Are you bullying Lord Hua?"
Ning Cheng looked in the direction of the voice and saw Yu Yan standing tall not far away with a faint smile on her lips, her eyes fixed on him and Hua Yanliang.
Ning Cheng's face suddenly turned gloomy, and he managed to force a smile, and responded: "Third Prince, please don't talk nonsense. How could I possibly bully Lord Hua?"
Yu Yan smiled slightly and said softly, "That's good. If you really do this, then I would like to ask Princess Qing'an who organized this flower viewing banquet. Why can Prince Ning allow whoever he wants to attend to attend, and not allow whoever he doesn't want to attend to attend."
After saying that, Yu Yan turned to look at Hua Yanliang and invited him, "Lord Hua, I want to attend the flower viewing banquet too. How about we go together?"
Hua Yanliang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he nodded excitedly and agreed: "Okay!"
Then, like a happy little bird, he followed Yu Yan and left.
Ning Cheng was left standing there all alone, gritting his teeth in anger, but helpless.

There was a lot of traffic in front of the Princess's Mansion. An exquisite carriage slowly stopped and two young women walked out of the carriage lightly.
The slightly younger girl was wearing a lavender dress, the hem of which fluttered gently in the breeze like a blooming flower.
A layer of light white gauze added a touch of mystery and elegance. A pink belt was tied around the waist, outlining the slender waist and making the figure more graceful.
She wore an exquisite jade hairpin on her head, which sparkled with a warm luster, adding a touch of freshness and refinement to her whole person.
At this moment, the carriage carrying Yu Yan and Hua Yanliang also arrived.
As soon as they got off the car, they ran into the girl in purple unexpectedly.
As soon as Yu Yan got out of the car, her eyes met with the purple-dressed girl's. For a moment, it seemed as if the whole world had stopped turning, and time had frozen at this moment.
The girl in purple stared at Yu Yan in a daze, her eyes full of surprise and confusion, and she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.
However, at this moment, the expression of another girl in a yellow dress next to the girl in purple turned a little ugly.
She glared at Yu Yan fiercely, as if she was dissatisfied with her appearance.
Then, she pulled the purple-clothed girl's hand tightly and hurried into the Princess's Mansion.
