"Peach blossoms? What does that symbolize?" Jiang Luofu asked, frowning.
Qi Yaoguang shook her head: "I don't know, I just feel that all I see is pink."
Zuan was also full of doubts. Could this little girl really see people's fates, or was she just a charlatan pretending to be mysterious?
"Even you couldn't tell?" Jiang Luofu asked incredulously.
Qi Yaoguang scratched her head, then adjusted her slightly tilted hat: "I also find it strange. I can see something in other people, but I can't see any information in him at all."
Jiang Luofu suddenly looked strange: "Isn't the peach blossoms you saw all over the sky a message? Doesn't this mean that this young man is destined to be entangled with all kinds of women throughout his life, and that he has a lot of romantic luck?"
Hearing the conversation outside, the Crown Princess inside the wooden house felt a surge of anger. No wonder such a thing happened after I met him; I was even stripped naked. This guy is a reincarnation of a peach blossom spirit!
Qi Yaoguang shook her head: "There are many interpretations of peach blossoms. It could be a peach blossom calamity, or something else, but it has nothing to do with his destiny. What indicates his destiny is in another form... So what exactly is going on?"
As she spoke, she circled around Zu'an, her initially sleepy eyes now filled with curiosity: "Senior sister, I'm becoming more and more interested in you as a friend."
Zuan was also completely bewildered, feeling that the two people in front of him were acting strangely: "I am a married man, please have some self-respect, young lady."
"You have a family?" Qi Yaoguang adjusted the star chart and calculated with her fingers. "Strange, according to my calculations, you shouldn't have a family. Wait, it's like a family but not a family, like a household but not a household, ahhh, what does this mean? My head is about to explode."
Jiang Luofu hurriedly said, "His situation is a bit complicated. He was initially married to Miss Chu, but some things happened that forced them to divorce in name only. However, their feelings for each other have not changed, and they get along just like when they were a married couple."
Zuan looked wary. "Is the beautiful principal hiding in the shadows spying on my life these days?"
Qi Yaoguang suddenly realized: "So that's how it is, so that's how it is."
Inside the wooden house, the Crown Princess frowned slightly. He and Miss Chu still had such a good relationship. She wondered what the Chu family was thinking. They were a prominent family, after all. How could they allow their daughter to follow Zu An in such an ambiguous way?
At this moment, Qi Yaoguang suddenly blinked and looked at Zu An: "You two don't have the status of husband and wife anymore, yet you're still occupying their lives like you used to when you were married. Aren't you a scumbag?"
Zuan: "..."
To be honest, it's quite easy to break down when a sweet-looking young girl innocently questions whether you're a jerk.
The Crown Princess in the wooden house secretly gave a thumbs up, suddenly feeling much more favorably disposed towards this junior sister from the academy. She really hit the nail on the head!
Jiang Luofu glanced at Zu An with a half-smile. It was time for this guy to suffer. Miss Chu was a fairy-like person, yet she was with him in an ambiguous relationship every day. There was no shortage of gossip in the capital.
Of course, this wasn't her purpose today. While her junior sister was sizing up Zu An, she stepped forward and bowed towards the wooden house, saying, "Master, this disciple has brought Zu An to request an audience."
Although she had already believed her junior sister's words, she still wanted to make one last effort.
A distant voice came from the direction of the wooden house: "When the time is right, we will meet again."
The implication is that it is not currently in sight.
Jiang Luofu bit her lip and hurriedly said, "This disciple would like to ask for a teaching position at an academy for Zu'an. I hope the teacher will approve."
The Crown Princess in the wooden house was somewhat surprised. This woman had no relation to Zu An, so why was she helping Zu An so much?
She was well aware of how valuable the position of a teacher at the National Academy was. Countless people wanted to break their heads to become teachers at the academy, but the selection process was extremely rigorous, and it was no exaggeration to describe it as a battle of a thousand troops crossing a single-plank bridge.
This woman actually came directly to ask for the title of "Sacrifice Master" for the sake of Zuan.
What exactly is their relationship?
The Crown Princess was somewhat displeased. It wasn't necessarily that she had fallen for Zu An, but in her eyes, Zu An came from the Eastern Palace and was one of her people. At that moment, she felt as if her toy had been snatched away by another woman, and that woman was her rival from many years ago!
Anger from Bi Linglong: +368 +368 +368...
Zuan outside was completely bewildered. What had he done to offend her?
However, he had no time to think about these things at the moment; he was more concerned about the chief priest's response.
“This is against the rules,” the chief priest’s voice came after a long silence in the cabin. “However, if you can get the consent of more than half of the remaining fellow disciples in the academy, you can be admitted as an exception.”
The Crown Princess frowned slightly. She had heard about the disciples of the Grand Master of Ceremonies before. They were all eccentric. So many high-ranking officials in the capital sought their help, but they wouldn't give an inch to anyone. How difficult it would be to get them to make an exception!
Although she was somewhat annoyed that Zuan was flirting with other beautiful women behind her back, she also understood that if Zuan could become a teacher at the National Academy, it would be of great benefit not only to him but also to her, so of course she hoped that Zuan would succeed.
Unfortunately, the more she cared, the more she worried. Thinking about the opinions of the powerful and influential people in the capital over the years regarding the disciples of the Chief Instructor, she couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Zu An had no hope this time. She would try to think of a way to help him next time.
Suddenly, a joyful voice came from outside:
"Mr. Zu, Mr. Zu, I've finally found you!"
The Crown Princess looked out the window and saw a short, fat man rolling up the mountain path like a ball of flesh. Wasn't this Yin Shi, the eleventh disciple of the Imperial Academy Master?
