Tang Dynasty Little Godfather

Chapter 52 We Must Find the Best
Excited!

The first class of the semester excited these new students immensely.

The nameless academy was even more perfect than they had imagined.

That's right!

It's here.

This is the college of our dreams.

In accordance with the founding principle of Wuming Academy to "lie flat," the first day of school should naturally not be a time for students to overwork themselves. Therefore, after discussing this matter, Tao Mo made a hasty retreat, telling you all to first cultivate the habit of self-study.

"Sparrow!"

As soon as Tao Mo left, Cui Gu'er and the others excitedly rushed towards the four senior brothers, led by Wang Xi.

"Brother Que, do you know how scared I was just now? I've never imagined in my life that I could have a courtesan accompany me in my studies. I really, really love this place. I didn't come to the wrong place."

"The teacher is the real teacher."

"Who can argue with that? If I had met my teacher earlier, perhaps I could have been as outstanding as my senior classmates."

"It was all worth all the effort we put in to come here and study! I'm so happy!"

As they spoke, several of the new students burst into tears of joy.

To this day, they still can't believe it.

It's amazing that classes can still be held like this.

"Don't cry, don't cry."

Wang Xi chuckled and said, "Our good days are yet to come. The most urgent thing right now is to raise the money."

"How much do you want, Brother Que? Just name your price," Han Xiaohu said, patting his chest.

"Why mention a number? That's not good. Of course, the more the better."

"Ah."

Everyone nodded vigorously, as if making the most solemn vow in the world: this is something that cannot be stingy with, and must be done with all one's might.

Xue Jun suddenly leaned closer and chuckled, "But I wonder which courtesans Brother Que plans to find to accompany him in his studies?"

Huangfu Sengnian said, "It can't be called accompanying a student; it should be called assisting a teacher."

“Yes, teaching assistant.” Xue Jun nodded repeatedly.

Inviting girls to the academy was something Wang Xi and his group had planned for a long time, but Wang Xi hadn't really thought about who to invite, so he asked, "What suggestions do you have?"

Linghu Baodi squeezed next to Wang Xi's table and said with a simple smile, "As long as it's pretty, we're not picky."

Is this even a question?
Aren't you afraid of getting struck by lightning?

"Get lost! You have no ambition whatsoever."

Xue Jun pushed Linghu Baodi aside and winked at Wang Xi, saying, "If we could get the Red Sleeve Flying Shoes, that would be wonderful."

Han Xiaohu rubbed his hands together and chuckled, "And there's also that Midnight Rainbow Robe."

Before he could finish speaking, Huangfu Sengnian asked, "Have you seen them before?"

Xue Jun shook his head, "I've never seen it before, that's why I want to see it!"

Li Jie snorted, "I'd like to see it too, but even our father might not be able to invite these four, let alone us."

Xue Jun chuckled and said, "We're just talking, just indulging in some banter. It doesn't matter if we can't invite them. We'll be satisfied with having a woman to accompany us, no, a teaching assistant."

The other freshmen wiped the saliva from their mouths, snapped out of their daze, and nodded, saying, "That's right, that's right."

Cui Gu'er suddenly looked at Wang Xi, and seeing that he was silent, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Que, why aren't you saying anything?"

"what?"

Wang Xi was taken aback: "Oh, it's nothing. We can discuss this matter later. Let's go to the hall first. I've already ordered the food and wine to be prepared as a celebration for your enrollment."

"it is good!"

Everyone was overjoyed.

The group arrived at the hall, where a long table was set up, laden with fine wine and delicacies. This was no academy; it was clearly a paradise of wine and meat. If they were to invite a group of courtesans along, they would be in heaven.

An hour later.

The new students, including Cui Gu'er, were all dead drunk and slumped on the table.

Although the hero's wine was a condiment, the main reason was that everyone was too excited and overly enthusiastic, and they all drank to their hearts' content.

Wang Xi and Li Jieman had already passed this stage, but when they looked at their junior brothers lying around in disarray, they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, they were no longer worried about how to explain themselves when they returned, because they had already made the name of the Nameless Academy famous.

It would be abnormal not to get drunk.

As the saying goes, one generation plants the trees, another enjoys the shade. Upon arriving at their secret meeting room, Wang Shuang hurriedly asked, "Brother Que, have you decided which courtesans to invite?"

Wang Shuang finally revealed his true, sinister side: "Actually, I also like red sleeves and flowing shoes, and midnight rainbow dresses."

Li Jieman put a hand on his shoulder and said, "Brother Shuang, we're kindred spirits!"

Huangfu Sengnian said, "If these four know you, then don't even think about it. If you can invite a slightly famous courtesan from Pingkangfang, that would already be a success."

After listening, Wang Xi seemed to be deep in thought.

His silence earlier was actually a recollection of those beautiful women in flowing robes and flowing dresses.

After thinking for a while, I realized that I had only heard of him by name, but had never met him in person.

Hongxiu, Feilu, Ziye, and Nishang were the four most famous courtesans in Pingkangfang, Chang'an, and were known as "Duzhi".

Strictly speaking, this "Du Zhi" is a level higher than the courtesan known to all.

In terms of job responsibilities, the courtesan is generally a singer and dancer, while the chief host is the host of a banquet, responsible for entertaining guests and creating a lively atmosphere. Therefore, a chief host must be as talented as a scholar, otherwise, she would not be able to inspire the wit and passion of these literati. In addition, she is also responsible for choreographing songs and dances, so she must be proficient in songs, dances, poetry and prose.

It can be said that a courtesan is not necessarily a chief geisha, but a chief geisha must have been promoted from courtesan.

When princes and nobles in the court wanted to hold a banquet, they had to send invitations to these four women to host it. Those who were not of high enough rank or cultural refinement could not invite them. Even Wang Shouyi, with his prominent position, could not invite them.

"Do not."

Wang Xi suddenly said, "We can't compromise when it comes to finding women; we have to find the best. After all, we're ostensibly doing this for our studies. If we were to find ordinary courtesans, it would definitely attract more criticism. But if we could invite all four of them, with their knowledge, it would be acceptable to invite them as teaching assistants."

Wang Shuang nodded and said, "That makes sense."

Huangfu Sengnian asked, "Is that so? Then tell me."

Wang Shuang chuckled and said, "As long as we can get those four women, I'll agree to any reasoning."

Huangfu Sengnian gave this fellow a disdainful look, but in his heart he agreed with Wang Xi's statement, saying, "It would be best if we could invite him, but that's simply impossible."

"Who said that."

Wang Xi said, "The four of us can even open a college, so why would we be afraid of not finding a few decent female teachers?"

"Yes."

Li Jieman said, "It's just the four of them."

"Cough cough."

Wang Xi said, "Let's focus on one target for now."

"One will do, but who should we ask?"

"Of course, pick the softest one to squeeze."

"How do you know who's the weakest?" Li Jieman asked in surprise.

"What are you thinking?" Wang Xi rolled her eyes. "I'm talking about the soft type, the kind that's easy to take advantage of."

Li Jieman said "Oh," and then asked, "Then who do you think is the easiest target?"

Wang Xi said, "Red Sleeve."

"Hongxiu?"

Li Jieman quickly shook his head and said, "She is the most difficult to deal with. Hongxiu is the first recognized chief, and among the four chiefs, Feilu and Ziye are both from families of musicians. Although Nishang's background is not very clear, she is probably from a commoner background. Only Hongxiu's father used to be a prefect. If she hadn't committed a crime, how could she have become a courtesan?"

"That's a bad word."

Huangfu Sengnian said, "Hongxiu has rarely appeared recently. In my opinion, she probably intends to retire. If she comes to our academy, she can take the opportunity to leave Pingkangfang."

"correct!"

Wang Xi snapped his fingers and patted Huangfu Sengnian on the shoulder, "Sengnian, this is where we'll have to rely on you."

"I?"

"of course."

Wang Xi said, "Don't you know what kind of people the three of us are? Going there would only be disrespectful to the beauty. You are different. They say old cows love young grass, oh no, cough cough, you are polite, have an extraordinary demeanor, are handsome, and are knowledgeable in music and poetry. When we go to brothels together, the courtesans all love you. You have to go!"

Wang Shuang and Li Jieman nodded in agreement.

Huangfu Sengnian said, "You don't usually say things like that."

Li Jieman put his hand on Huangfu Sengnian's shoulder and said, "Normally it's normal, now it's now, we can't generalize."

"I!"

As soon as Monk Nian finished speaking, Wang Shuang put his hand on the other side and said, "Monk Nian, the brothers' happiness depends entirely on you."

The two of them started eating while talking.

Li Jieman and Wang Shuang used both soft and hard tactics, and even Wang Xi, who was surrounded by men, couldn't resist them, let alone Huangfu Sengnian.
