Isn’t it a loss? Silly boy, don’t you understand? It’s your reputation. If you have a concubine or an oiran, whose girl will be willing to marry you in the future?
Well, your reputation is not good to begin with, so it seems that it is not bad.
Lu Ran compromised, she really wanted to open Bai Yan's brain and take a look.
"Master Bai, I will take care of my daily expenses myself. I just want to go to the college to be a teacher, so forget it." Lu Ran shook his head.
There has been a huge commotion in the Bai family today. If she really becomes the teacher, I'm afraid it will bring down the whole college.
"Why not? Lu Ran, do you want to be controlled by others for the rest of your life? Why don't you think of a way to save yourself?" Bai Yan was puzzled.
"I'm just a weak woman, how can I save myself?" Lu Ran smiled bitterly.
It's not that she hasn't resisted in these years, otherwise she wouldn't have been driven here.
But is it useful? She is just a prostitute, and the other party is a royal prince. If she fights, she is destined to fail.
"Miss Lu Ran, do you look down on the academy?" Bai Yan asked.
"No, no!"
Luran waved his hands repeatedly, she had no such idea.
"Then why do you think the academy cannot compete with a prince? If it were Emperor Ming, I would still be afraid of him, but what does he mean by a prince who is not in power? Where is the academy? It is a holy place. As long as the academy is strong enough,
His prince cannot come to the academy to act wild."
"When the day comes when the college becomes strong enough and you become a famous gentleman in the college, will he, a prince, still be able to control your life? Does he want to be an enemy of the world's scholars and students?"
"Don't think that the academy can't compete with the prince. If the academy can train dozens of Hanlins, even the Emperor Ming will not dare to look down upon it. I dare not say anything else. Within ten years, Bailu Academy will bloom all over the Daqian Dynasty.
.By then, it won’t be easy to produce several Hanlins in a year?”
While Bai Yan was talking eloquently, Lu Ran was already shocked and dumbfounded.
Bai Yan's words are exaggerated, but they also make sense. As long as White Deer Academy is strong enough, it can really protect her.
Those great Confucians and some scholars are the least afraid of power.
"Master Bai, do you plan to establish Bailu Academy everywhere?" Lu Ran asked.
"This is natural. Am I, Bai Yan, going to stay in the Northland for the rest of my life?" Bai Yan asked in return.
Luran nodded, yes, Bai Yan is so good, will he go to Kyoto in the future? Beidi is really not enough.
Her heart was moved, she was really moved.
For so many years, she has not seen any hope. Now that hope is right in front of her, she really doesn't want to give up. This may be the only hope in her life.
"But, Master Bai, I want to join White Deer Academy, but if I join, I'm afraid it will harm the academy. By then, I will become a sinner."
Lu Ran sighed.
No matter how good the outline was, she couldn't go, which would harm Bai Yan, harm the students and gentlemen of the college.
"Lu Ran, this is not something you should consider. What you are thinking about now is how to join the academy and how to become a respected gentleman after joining the academy, instead of thinking about the life and death of others. Do you think it is so easy for you to join the academy?
?" Bai Yan sneered.
"Here, do you need to pass some assessments to join the academy?" Lu Ran was confused.
She thought that since Bai Yan opened his mouth, she could join as long as she wanted to.
"The assessment is inevitable, and I am not the dean of the college. Now that the college is on the right track, Cheng Daru is responsible for everything in the college. If you want to join the college as a teacher, you must have Cheng Daru's consent. Although I am an investor
But it can’t influence the college’s decision-making,” Bai Yan said.
Lu Ran frowned slightly. As an investor, Bai Yan couldn't make the decision?
However, this does seem to be better for the development of the college.
She felt a lot of pressure. If she wanted to pass Cheng Daru's assessment and become a teacher, the possibility was almost impossible.
"I will recommend you to find Cheng Daru, but it's hard to say whether he will agree. You still have a certain possibility." Bai Yan waved his hand: "Since Miss Lu Ran has finished eating, please leave. A man and a woman can live alone together."
One room is a mouth-watering one."
Drive me away?
Lu Ran was stunned for a moment. This was the first time she was driven away by a man, and her sense of loss doubled.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Master Bai, they all say that I am your concubine, what's the point?"
"So, you are willing? Well, I'll clean it up later and stay here tonight." Bai Yan said calmly.
"Then I'd better go. Thank you very much, Master Bai, for today."
Lu Ran smiled lightly and stood up to say goodbye.
She walked slowly towards the outside, her movements very slow.
"This guy, by helping me like this, doesn't he want to sleep with me? Why don't you try to keep me here? Are you going to let me go just like that? If you are the overlord, how can I, a weak woman, refuse you?"
Lu Ran murmured in his heart.
She was very conflicted in her heart. She wanted Bai Yan to stop her, but she also didn't want Bai Yan to stop her.
It wasn't until she walked to the entrance of the courtyard that Bai Yan's voice finally came from behind, making her feel happy.
"Don't call me Master Bai from now on, just call me by my name." Bai Yan said.
Luran's mood dropped again.
"Master Bai, Bai Yan, do you just want to say this to me?"
"Otherwise? You want to enter the academy through the back door through me? Let's forget it. The academy has its own rules and you can't break them from me." Bai Yan shrugged.
Lu Ran almost spit out blood, is this what I want to say?
Isn’t this guy a wanderer? How could he not understand?
"Bai Yan, why do you want to help me?" she asked through gritted teeth.
"Help you? You are thinking too much. This is to help myself. If the college has more excellent teachers, it will have more excellent students. Only with more excellent students can the reputation of the college be built. Furthermore, didn't you mean
Already? Others think you are my concubine. I, Bai Yan, have such a good reputation that I cannot let you drag me down." Bai Yan said seriously.
Lu Ran was stunned for a long time before he understood what Bai Yan meant.
Bai Yan disliked her as a courtesan and disliked that she came from a land of fireworks.
With her status and innocence, she can even enter the prince's palace.
It is difficult to be a first wife, but it is still possible to be a high-class concubine.
"Do you have a better reputation than me? You hang out in the land of fireworks all the time, and you still look down on me. Hum, one day, I will make it impossible for you to be as good as me."
Lu Ran snorted and left angrily.
She was so grateful to Bai Yan before that she couldn't repay him, which was simply being sentimental.
Fortunately, this guy didn't notice, otherwise he would have laughed himself to death?
No, he was already laughing at me. The dance that day?
Thinking of his performance that day, Lu Ran wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
