Chapter 166: Chapter 129: Good at Being a Mentor_3
Prefect Cui came over to take a look, and after seeing his daughter looking well, he finally left with peace of mind.
On the way back, anyone could see that he was in an excellent mood, even walking with a spring in his step.
He was soon to have a great-grandson, which for Cui Changqing, who only had a single daughter, was the greatest joy.
Sun Siwen became even more precious to his wife. Wherever Cui Wenxiu went, he followed, never wanting to be half a step away, fearing something might happen to his wife.
Even Cui Wenxiu couldn’t stand his behavior, and several times, she had to order him to leave and focus on his work.
As a bystander, Lu Yuan watched silently, feeling somewhat at a loss.
However, this feeling didn’t last long.
Because soon, the new sisters of the Little Phoenix Pavilion filled the emptiness in his heart.
Last year, several girls who were greatly admired by Teacher Lu learned a few secret dances from him and tried to perform them for other guests.
These conservative and traditional guests had never seen such a scene in a brothel before.
The bold and spicy, the subtly suggestive, the deadly temptation…
Needless to say.
How those later generations of perverted otaku were conquered by thigh dances and house dances, is how these bumpkins were also once again ensnared.
Of course.
There were also some scholars who had become dull from reading too much, who could not help but criticize the dance, which they considered indecent even by brothel standards, as a sign of the decline of social morals.
Some even went so far as to ridicule the fact that the dance was personally designed by the commanding officer of Fu City, calling him a coarse and vulgar martial artist.
Naturally, those who didn’t understand the sentiment, were found with broken teeth and limping legs by the moat outside the city the next day.
After that, there was much less of this kind of talk.
However, such old-fashioned people were in the minority.
Most people, after appreciating the dance, couldn’t help but praise Lu Yuan in their hearts for understanding them! Then they happily opened a private room, to explore the dance with the beauties alone.
Riding the wave of this trend, several girls in the Little Phoenix Pavilion became famous and earned a lot of silver taels. Then they were redeemed by the wealthy gentlemen of the city and brought home to become private tutors.
However, as more and more people were redeemed, rumours somehow began to circulate in the city that the commanding officer Lu “was clean, and didn’t indulge in the company of beautiful women.”
This gave many people some gossip over tea and meals.
Lu Yuan was naturally furious at this, ordering a strict investigation into who was ruining his reputation.
Was he not into beautiful women?
He was just strictly adhering to his teacher’s ethics and not overstepping his bounds.
What were those lustful men thinking every day?
Furious, Lu Yuan had no choice but to reluctantly teach a new generation of beautiful students, under heavy financial sponsorship from the Little Phoenix Pavilion.
It can’t be helped.
The achievements Of the previous batch Of Students Were so outstanding that even the Little Phoenix Pavilion, after earning a lot of silver taels, couldn’t help but admire him as the instigator.
The madams in the pavilion ordered that from now on, whenever Sir Lu visited the pavilion, drinks and private rooms were free and even paying him extra to teach the girls.
Not paying when visiting a brothel was one thing, but earning money in a brothel was something unique to him.
When the news spread, it was enough to make many people envious.
In the following period, “Teacher Lu”, who loved teaching others, spent his time happily teaching between the Little Phoenix Pavilion and his own mansion.
During this time, one night when he returned home from the Little Phoenix Pavilion, he took a Rejuvenation Pill in high spirits and successfully practiced another bizarre meridian.
Finally, he had reached the last meridian of the Replenishing Qi Heart Sutra.
As long as he could remove the last Yin Wei Vessel, then Lu Yuan would have completely mastered this first-rate Mental Technique.
Naturally, this was cause for celebration.
So, the next day, he went to the Little Phoenix Pavilion again to share his joy with his good students.
After all, it’s better to bring joy to everyone than just to oneself.
In such fulfilling and happy days, time quickly passed to the fourth year of Hongdao, the second month.
On this day, Lu Yuan, who had been teaching students for over a month, finally felt a little tired and, in a rare occurrence, didn’t go to the Little Phoenix Pavilion but instead went to the Fu City Barracks, which he hadn’t visited for quite some time.
After inspecting the soldiers in the camp, he found that they had trained hard during his absence, and made great progress in formation drills and personal martial arts.
In particular, the 300 personal guards selected by Lu Yuan had developed Inner Strength after several months of cultivation, and even the newcomers had mastered it.
Although none of the 300 people could master one complete meridian, even so, it was enough to make them happy.
After all, these were 300 soldiers with Inner Strength, military formation skills, cooperation and expertise in archery. Such a force, when deployed in a formation, would pose a tricky challenge even for a first-class expert.
Seeing his personal guards advance to such a level in such a short time, Lu Yuan was naturally delighted.
Feeling generous, the commanding officer waved his hand and rewarded each member of his personal guards with five silver tales, winning their cheers.
As Lu Yuan’s practice had reached the last meridian, the workload of his disciples who had been tasked with collecting and purchasing various century-old spiritual medicines had greatly decreased, and even many of them had been called back.
After more than a year of collecting and purchasing, the amount of money Lu Yuan had was just over 10,000 silver tales.
It was almost below the five-digit mark.
However, he wasn’t worried.
That’s because Lu Yuan still had enough Rejuvenation Pills left to complete the remaining Yin Wei Vessel. Even when he finished, there would still be quite a lot left.
Without this huge expenditure, there wouldn’t be many places to spend money.
If he calculated his official salary and the tutoring fees from the Little Phoenix Pavilion, there would still be an income of-about one hundred silver tales a
month, right?
With his finances increasingly stable, Lu Yuan even considered whether to share some of the remaining Rejuvenation Pills with his best disciples.
After all, they had risked their lives to travel all over the world for him, working tirelessly, and their efforts deserved some recognition.
Plus, being first-rate masters with disciples who were only considered third-rate was a bit of a stretch.
“At least they should have second-rate strength to be considered disciples, and to bear the burden.”
Lu Yuan thought so, and considering his future plans to steal techniques, finally decided.
Just let it be.
He could just give away the Rejuvenation Pills that were worth several thousand silver tales as a reward.
He wouldn’t want his disciples to say that he, as their master, didn’t care about them.
Is this not a rich enough expression of love, made of true gold and silver?
Who would have thought that I, Lu Yuan, would be such a good teacher?
