Xu Wentian's status as an illegitimate son was not difficult to adapt to; after all, Yan Moshan was a bookworm, raised by a single old servant with no other relatives. Having been bullied during his childhood due to his lack of parents, he developed deep-seated insecurities and therefore disliked communicating with anyone. He hardly ever set foot outside the house and immersed himself in the study of Confucian classics, hoping one day to achieve scholarly honor and bring glory to his ancestors, as well as to meet his biological parents.
Thus, it was not difficult for him to play the part. The next day, after two months of preparation, Yan Moshan adapted to this role and played it perfectly. Except for practicing the "Nine Yin True Scripture Marrow-washing Bone-forging Chapters" every evening in his room, he spent his other time studying Confucianism, in harmony with the world.
