Chapter Eighty-Six: What Does It Matter?
Xu An became more and more bored, and he was curious about many things.
For example, if you want to relieve Mullanzhou for yourself, why do you have to go through the hand of an oiran at first, at first Xu An may feel that it is inconvenient for Mullanzhou to come forward because of his face, so he dragged his acquaintances, but now looking at Mulanzhou's obscene appearance, is it like the kind of person who is afraid that others will recognize him?
And Mulanzhou is a frequent visitor in Pear Flower Garden, if you want to say that you don't have money, Xu An won't believe it, and since it's for yourself, why do you want to invite all the guests' money?
Xu An thought about it and felt that it should be the Oiran girl who recognized her identity, so she did this kind of thing, in order to make herself owe her a favor. If it's just your own wine money, it's just a small number, but not to mention how huge the amount of wine money in the entire Pear Flower Garden is, there is no accurate amount at all, and you can't pay it back even if you want to.
Xu An didn't think that Mullanzhou would have anything to do with this kind of thing, thinking that it should be the idea of the ruler jade girl herself, it seems that this Oiran girl is really not simple.
"Lord Dean, do we want to go back?" Xu An asked, he was really afraid that someone would recognize the two of them. Not to mention Xu An's identity, if the news of the students of the Spirit Academy and the Dean of the Spirit Academy visiting the Qinglou together will definitely ruin the reputation of the Spirit Academy.
"Don't interrupt, you have to go back yourself. Mullanzhou waved his hand and said impatiently.
Xu An was speechless, this old man was really not afraid that others would recognize him? Can a strong man in the fugue realm really be so arrogant? No wonder Ji Dongli is bent on entering the fugue, and it seems that he is also a fake and serious person.
Mullanzhou is not afraid of Xu An, naturally he is not afraid, no matter how high the status of King Hui'an is, it is not as scary as the name of the dean of the Spirit Academy, if someone really recognizes it, I am afraid that it will be too late to hide, how dare he make a fuss about this matter? Xu An thought of this and relaxed his heart a little.
Time flies quickly, although everyone is looking forward to it, they have never seen the Oiran girl show up, some unhappiness is certain, but there is no too much loss with beautiful women and wine as company.
The heavy snow began to stop, Xu An and Mulanzhou, an old man and a young man, swaggered out of Pear Flower Garden, their cheeks were flushed, if they said that they were just drinking and listening to music, no one would believe it, but Xu An was indeed just drinking. Joke, who dares to do anything in front of the dean? Mullan dares himself, but Xu An doesn't dare.
The cold outside and the warmth of the pear flower garden formed a distinct this, Xu An hurriedly wrapped the clothes on his body, and Mullanzhou glanced at Xu An with some disdain, and the meaning in his eyes was very clear: It's not as good as me as an old man.
Although Xu An was ashamed, he didn't dare to refute, the two walked back to the Spirit Academy, the students in the academy had not finished class yet, naturally it was Xu An's time to pinch, and at this time they didn't have to worry about being seen by others, the two of them were still swaggering at the passage of the Spirit Academy.
"Borrowed, borrowed..."Zhang Cheng ran directly opposite the two in a panic.
He estimated that he saw the two people in front of him from a distance, so he lowered his head and accelerated to run past, and Xu An naturally recognized him.
"Stop!"
Zhang Cheng stopped suddenly, slowly raised his head, and saw that it was Xu An who breathed a sigh of relief, raised his sleeves and pretended to wipe the sweat that did not exist on his forehead, and asked a little speechlessly: "Why are you again?"
"Ahem," Mullanan coughed as he stood in front.
Can... No one paid any attention to him.
"I still want to ask, it's not class time yet, why are you here?" Xu An asked angrily.
"I... I have something at home, so I asked my husband for leave in advance..."
"Come, didn't you sneak out of your house? Who told you that something was going on at home?"
"Uh... This, I just heard that the Oiran girl in the pear flower garden asked for a meal of wine, so I didn't hurry up and sneak out to see if I could see it. Zhang Cheng secretly glanced at Mullanzhou in front of him, and then leaned into Xu An's ear and whispered.
"You also know that Oiran girl?" Xu An asked, looking Zhang Cheng up and down.
"That's nature... Of course, I listened to others, but why do you use it?"
"Ahem," Mullanan coughed in front of him again.
Zhang Cheng felt a little strange, but he hadn't been in Beiyang City for a long time, and he didn't know Mulanzhou at all, so he asked in a low voice: "Who is that person?"
"He's the dean of the Spirit Academy. Xu Anqiang said with a smile.
"Oh, Dean of the Spirit Academy, cut, I thought it was Mulanzhou with such a big shelf. Zhang Cheng muttered disdainfully.
Xu An was speechless, and Mullanzhou was even more angry when he heard this, what did he say?
As soon as Zhang Cheng's words came out, he felt that something was wrong, and after reacting, he hurried to Xu An's side and asked, "He is the dean of the Spirit Academy?"
It's no wonder that Zhang Cheng didn't know anything, even Xu An couldn't believe that this obscene and sloppy old man could actually be the powerhouse of the Divine Journey Realm, the dean of the Spirit Academy.
"It's like a fake. ”
Zhang Cheng glanced at Mullanzhou in front of him through Xu An from time to time, and when he heard Xu An confirm it again, he hurriedly shook his hands and jogged in front of Mullanzhou, saluted, and said with a smile: "Eh, hey... The students have met Dean Mu. ”
Mullanan stroked his beard and said angrily, "Well, what's your name?"
Where did Zhang Cheng dare to sign up for his own number, he hurriedly saluted and said goodbye: "There is still something at the student's home, and the student will retire first." ”
After speaking, he ran away.
Xu An didn't care about him, but Zhang Cheng actually knew the Oiran girl, which couldn't help but make Xu An even more curious, thinking that Mullanzhou and Oiran were familiar with each other, and then asked: "Lord Dean, who do you say that Oiran girl is, why has everyone heard of her?"
"What you said is not right, if you ask Xiao Jiu, he will definitely say that he doesn't know, how can anyone who walks in the Qinglou have never heard of the truth of the Oiran?"
Xu An admits that Mulanzhou's words are reasonable, it seems that he owes others a favor and is too nervous, this jade girl is the Oiran in the Pear Flower Garden, and people who often go in and out of the Pear Flower Garden will naturally hear about it, and she is not a big person, even if she is not a big person, but why does Mullanzhou have to let herself owe her a favor?
"I know, Qiyu's original name is Li Yiyi. Yang Hejiu didn't know when he stood not far from the two of them and said.
Xu An was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then glanced at Mulanzhou and patted his thigh and laughed and said, "Uncle Jiu, you are also a frequent visitor in Pear Flower Garden?"
"No... How do you know that Li Yiyi is a ruler jade?" Mullanzhou also asked curiously, he was not surprised that Yang Hejiu knew about Li Yiyi, but how did Yang Hejiu know that Li Yiyi was a ruler jade?
"I haven't been to Ewha Garden, and my uncle happened to mention the Oiran girl, and I knew that the Oiran girl was Li Yiyi. ”
Li Yiyi?Xu An was a little curious, why Yang Hejiu also knew who that Oiran girl was, and even knew her original name. Xu An didn't ask a question, but his face was full of question marks.
The three of them kept walking, still walking inside, walking along this passage through the inner courtyard and then inside is the place where they lived, the courtyard of Mulanzhou was also there, and the three of them walked for about half an hour before they arrived, which shows the scale of the Spirit Academy.
Yang Hejiu directly retired to cook, and Xu An and Mullanzhou continued to chat in the house.
"You want to ask me why I'm doing this?" asked Mullan, sitting on a chair looking at Xu An.
Xu An was slightly stunned, he was not good at asking this kind of question himself, but now that Mullanzhou actually took the initiative to mention it, it was naturally a matter of following the conversation, Xu An was serious, and saluted loudly with a little indignation: "The dean is wise, and I implore the dean to solve the doubts of the students." ”
"It's still related to the war between the State of Chu and the State of Qi. Mullanan rinsed his mouth and said.
"What is the relationship between the two?" Xu An asked suspiciously.
"There are two main points for me to ask her to help you break the siege, the first point is related to the battle of Chu Qi, and the second point is related to the war of Chu Qi. ”
Xu An couldn't help jumping up from his chair when he saw Mullanzhou selling here, waved his hands and asked, "... No... Is there a relationship between those two points? Can you explain that?"
"Ahem... Let me talk about the first point first, Chu and Qi are about to fight, we all think that Qi is invincible to Chu, and Qi also knows this, if Qi breaks Beichang, it will be exposed to Chu's field of vision, so Qi will inevitably send an embassy to Beichang for help. Mullanzhou took a sip of water and said slowly.
"You don't need to analyze these things that we all know, you just say what this Oiran girl has to do with these things. Xu An said more and more anxiously, according to his analysis, he was afraid that he would not be able to say clearly until dawn.
"But why are you so interested in her?" asked Mullan, jokingly.
Xu Aneng is so interested, naturally, not because he has heard people talk about her beauty, he is not infatuated enough to miss someone he has never met. He was able to ask these questions completely out of caution, he wanted to know what kind of person this Oiran girl was, he felt more and more that Qi Yu was calculating himself, he was in the light and in the dark, and he already owed someone a favor before he understood what was going on, how could this be fun?
He wanted to find out the purpose and motive of this Oiran girl, and it seemed that her little actions had even deceived Mulanzhou, Xu An was not good at talking to Mulanzhou about this, because this would doubt his meaning, which was why he didn't ask directly.
"It's not... Don't sell it. Xu An said with a bitter face.
"I went to Qi and Chu a few days ago, and Qi had already sent a mission to Beiyang City, and I should have been able to arrive a year ago. ”
"What does this have to do with the ruler jade?"
"There is also a team behind the team of the mission, which is to come and kiss, and the one sitting inside is the only princess of Qi Kingdom, named Jiang Ming. ”
"Affinity, with whom, and what does this have to do with the ruler?"
"Can you use your brains? The only princess of Qi Kingdom came to make peace with Beichang, who can she be close to? Is it Lin Pinggui? Is it your eldest brother or your younger brother? Or is it the old man and me?" Mullanzhou had already had enough of Xu An's words, stood up and waved his hands and scolded.
Xu An was taken aback by his reaction, and sat there like a dumb goose sticking out his head and said, "Could it be me?"
The person who came was the only princess of the Qi Kingdom, and it was unlikely that she would be included in the palace by finding a minister at random. There are only a handful of people in the Beichang Empire who have such a status to marry this princess, Lin Pinggui has a wife and children and it is impossible to be the object of harmony, and it is even more impossible for Mullanzhou and Xu Shiliang to be married, one is too old and the other is too young, so the object of harmony is only Xu An himself and the lord Xu Shichang, the Beichang Empire does not have the rule that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, so those courtiers will definitely not want Xu Shichang to set up a foreign woman as the queen, so that there is only one object left for the marriage, that is, Xu An.
But Xu An still doesn't understand, what does this have to do with Qiyu?
