Translator: Henyee Translations , Editor: Henyee Translations

As for Nmg Ansheng and Rong Yan, since the others found out that one of them was the son of a farmer and the other was a down- and-out young master, they naturally lost the mood to chat.

Their chatter was disturbing. Ning Ansheng and Rong Yan had the same goal. They silently moved their butts, wanting to move away from Shen Tianci. Sensing that the two of them despised him, Shen Tianci immediately became even more determined… to offend the others…

When the people who were rejected by Shen Tianci saw that he looked down on them but wanted to stay with the farmer and poor guy, they immediately looked at the two of them with hostility.

Ning Ansheng let it go. Rong Yan had to use a lot of self-control to not kick away Shen Tianci, who was the center of those annoying flies.

In the morning, they did not listen to much class. The three of them were mentally and physically exhausted.

Fortunately, today was the first day of school. The main focus was to let the students familiarize themselves with the environment and their classmates, so they did not attend any serious classes. After being muddle-headed for half a day, the three of them habitually looked forward to their meal. However, they realized that they did not have any appetite after walking to the academy’s canteen and sniffing around.

In order to let the students study in peace and not worry about trivial matters, the Bowen Academy specially set up a dining hall in the academy. In order not to make themselves look special and to not let Xiaoxiao suffer, they originally wanted to settle their lunch here, but…

The food was not delicious. It was to the extent that they did not want to open their mouths.

Ning Ansheng was still alright. After all, he was a child who had suffered. He closed his eyes and gritted his teeth. However, Shen Tianci and Rong Yan both used their chopsticks to poke at the vegetables in their bowls and sighed.

It was easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. The ancients did not lie to me.

Seeing that Rong Yan and Ning Ansheng had only ordered the simplest dishes, some idlers came over and sat beside Shen Tianci. “Brother Shen, do you want’ to try the snacks I specially brought from home?”

Snacks?

The three of them seemed to have been enlightened. They stood up at the same time and walked towards the classroom.

That person followed quickly and even said, “Young Master Shen, you might not know this, but my chef has stayed in the palace before. Her culinary skills are exquisite, especially her ability to make snacks. That’s to the extent that she’s fought over by the nobles. If not for my family’s kindness to her in the early years, she wouldn’t have come to our house. These Walnut Cake and Date Cake are different from the ones bought outside…”

Shen Tianci was already annoyed after listening to him nagging for the entire morning. “What difference can it make? Isn’t it just those cakes?”

That person scratched his head. “Look at what Young Master Shen is saying. Aren’t there only those few snacks…???”

He watched in shock as the three of them opened small bamboo boxes of about the similar style and took out an unknown snack of various shapes. They put it in their mouths and bit it. The fragrance was delicious.

The biscuits were already cold, but they were still crispy. After being chewed into pieces in their mouths, it was as if even their breathing had the taste of the milk’s sweetness. The three of them felt that their bodies, minds, and stomachs had been healed. The frustration and hunger from the morning were instantly wiped away.

Initially, they thought that Xiaoxiao had given them too much. Now, they only felt that this little bit of biscuits were not enough at all.

It was not only the student who was bragging about his snacks just now. More and more youths were attracted. Although they were embarrassed to stare, they could not help but look at them from time to time.

Rong Yan and the other two paid attention to their limits and kept half of the biscuits. They stuffed one into their mouths after each class. Little did they know that the other students were tempted when they smelled this. Even the teacher who was having class in the afternoon could not help but ask, “Who’s eating snacks secretly?”

Everyone looked at Rong Yan and the other two, but they were sitting upright and listening to the class seriously.

Most of their classes were the same, but there was a law class later. Shen Tianci was really not interested in that, but Rong Yan and Ning Ansheng both signed up. He could only watch them leave. When he was not paying attention, his gaze landed on the small bamboo box where the two of them were.

When Rong Yan and the others arrived at the study room specially prepared for law lectures, Chen Yong sniffed. “What’s that smell?” It smelled good.

The two of them were unmoved, but for some reason, they were worried. However, they could not figure out what they were worried about for the time being.

Chen Yong used his identity as a teacher to test their understanding of the law. Then, he placed Rong Yan in another place and said to Ning Ansheng alone, “You have the drive to study. It’s very good that you can learn everything you’ve learned in peace.”

“But on the other hand, you have a limitation that can’t be ignored. You haven’t read enough books.”

Nmg Ansheng didn’t look embarrassed at all. He only bowed respectfully.

“Thank you for your guidance.”

At first glance, Chen Yong liked this young man very much. However, since he was a serious person, he only led him to the bookshelf. “But this is not a big problem. You can read these books first. You can also use the pens, ink, paper, and inkstones here. When I come back later, tell me what you read and what you read.”

Then, he walked towards Rong Yan and said in a voice that even Ning Ansheng could hear, “Come next door with me. Don’t disturb the peace of our classmates.”

Rong Yan bowed and followed them. After the two of them went out, they closed the door gently. Ning Ansheng actually did not pay much attention to it. His mind was focused on the bookshelf in front of him.

There were so many books that he did not even dare to think about in the past. When he reached out to touch them, he could not help but hold his breath, afraid that he would wake up from his dream when he touched them.

It didn’t take long for Ning Ansheng to calm down. He chose two books from the bookshelf. “The Doctrine of the Mean” and “The Laws of Great Xia”. He calmed down and started reading.

On the other side, Chen Yong bent his knees when the door closed. “Greetings, Third Prince.”

Before he really knelt down, Rong Yan wanted to pull him back. “There’s no need to be so polite.”

However, Chen Yong insisted and bowed respectfully. “This is my bow to you and also on behalf of those commoners.”

Rong Yan could not refuse, so he moved his body slightly and bowed to Chen Yong as a student.

Chen Yong saw it from the corner of his eye and nodded in his heart. Of course, he knew that Rong Yan’s status in the royal family was awkward. As the son of a favored concubine, he was not valued. His biological mother had long expressed her support for the Crown Prince and turned a blind eye to her biological son. It was said that the Third Prince left the palace this time only because Noble Consort Ji did not want to see him at her birthday banquet.

His Majesty doted on the noble consort, and his attitude towards this prince was even stranger. He had all the treatment he deserved and was not lacking in honor. However, he only treated him as a luxurious decoration, as if he was doted on because he was the son of the noble consort, and neglected because the noble consort did not like him.

If anyone in the palace was disrespectful to this prince, His Majesty would not let them off easily. However, as soon as the noble consort said that she did not want to see him, His Majesty followed the noble consort’s instructions and sent him out. It was confusing.

Chen Yong was not a person who curry favor with the rich and powerful. If Rong Yan was selfish and stupid, even if he had a noble status, he would not be valued by him. However, when he found out that Rong Yan was working hard for the dam, he acknowledged the prince in his heart..
