"Then I'll be grateful for Mr. Xun's care from now on." Su An said.

Xunzi nodded. He still had some complaints about the high priest arranging him to be the principal instructor of Yijing School. The students of Sanjing School needed him more, and the other instructors of Yijing School were enough to teach.

However, when he heard that Su An was extremely talented, even more so than the only daughter of the Grand Secretary of Qilin Pavilion, he also began to appreciate her talent and no longer rejected her.

As for Su An's family background, he actually didn't care much about it. If he cared about it, he would have agreed to the invitation from Guanwenxue Palace long ago.

There is never a shortage of students from prominent families there, and being able to be their teacher would definitely be a great benefit.

Su An chatted with the two old men for a while, and suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Su An was sitting sideways facing the door, and he looked up.

I saw a young girl in plain clothes standing at the door. She had bright eyes, white teeth, fair skin and beautiful face. Her long hair was tied up with a wooden hairpin. She had a simple and elegant temperament, like a secluded orchid in a valley.

"Xiao Xuan is here, come in." The high priest said to the girl.

"High Priest, Mr. Xun." The girl in plain clothes bowed to the two old men.

The next moment, she turned her gaze to Su An, her eyes lighting up.

What a handsome young man, I haven’t seen him before. Is he the junior brother who joined the training this year?

"Prince, let me introduce to you. This is the number one prodigy in our Nanfu Academy, Tan Tai Xuan." The chief priest said with a smile.

Tan Tai Xuan, Su An had heard of this name before.

Like Sima Yue and Xie Yun, she is known as one of the four great beauties in the capital. She is now eighteen years old and has entered the second realm. She has outstanding talent in the arts and could be ranked in the top five in the Guanwenxue Palace.

In terms of appearance and talent, he is one of the best in Nanfu Academy, and his status in Nanfu Academy is similar to that of Zhou Qingyu in Guanwenxue Palace.

However, unlike Zhou Qingyu, Tan Taixuan was born in an ordinary family.

"Xiao Xuan, this is the son of Marquis Shenwei, a famous living poet in our Dajin in recent times." The chief priest said to Tan Tai Xuan.

A look of surprise appeared on Tan Tai Xuan's pretty face. She didn't expect that this strange handsome young man was actually the extremely noble son of Marquis Shenwei.

But when she looked at Su An again, her eyes were much calmer.

"Greetings, Prince." Tan Tai Xuan bowed to Su An.

"Senior Sister Tan Tai, there's no need to be polite. Just call me by my name." Su An said.

"Prince, I'll let Xiaoxuan take you to familiarize yourself with the academy environment later. Is that ok, Xiaoxuan?" said the high priest.

"Follow the orders of the Grand Priest." Tan Tai Xuan said.

"Then the Crown Prince will be handed over to you. You should accompany him around the academy this morning. Classes will start in the afternoon." said the High Priest.

Tan Tai Xuan took Su An and Dan Qing out of the room and went down to the attic.

The luxurious carriage of the Marquis Shenwei Mansion stopped under the attic. Tan Taixuan couldn't help but take a few more glances at it. A hint of longing appeared in his eyes, which then quickly disappeared.

Tan Tai Hyun asked, "Prince, do you want to walk or take a carriage?"

"Let's go." Su An said, and then ordered the coachman of the Marquis' Mansion to drive the carriage outside the academy.

Tan Tai Xuan first took Su An to the dormitory, and then went all the way to the back mountain.

"Most of our classmates live in dormitories or in the market town outside the academy. A small number of classmates choose to live in the back mountain of the academy, where there are independent attics and the environment is quiet, where they will not be disturbed." Tan Taixuan introduced.

"Where do you want to live, my Lord?"

Su An looked at the back mountain of the Nanfu Academy and could see a row of small attics with carved beams and painted rafters hidden among the lush greenery.

This kind of independent attic cannot be purchased, but students can choose to rent it. However, the rent is very expensive and students from poorer families cannot afford it.

And because the quantity is limited, having money is not enough, the family must also have connections.

Living in this small attic, one does not have to share dormitories with other students, nor does one have to endure the hustle and bustle of the market town outside the academy. It is quiet and private.

"Just live in this kind of attic."

Xiaoquan Peak is a small peak in the back mountain.

Tan Tai Xuan took Su An to visit the vacant attics. Dan Qing pointed out the location of Xiaoquan Peak to Su An, and Su An chose an attic close to Xiaoquan Peak as his residence.

After choosing a residence, Tan Tai Xuan took Su An back to the gate of Nanfu Academy.

Su Wan has already brought people to deliver Su An's luggage.

Tan Tai Xuan took the two of them and the servants of the Marquis' Mansion and moved the luggage to the attic chosen by Su An.

The attic has two floors. The first floor is a reception hall, with a kitchen and dining room next to it.

There are three rooms on the second floor, including two dormitories, one large and one small, with beds, and a study room with good lighting.

There is a small courtyard enclosed by a fence in front of the attic, with facilities such as clothes drying racks, stone tables and stone chairs in the courtyard.

There are orchids, pines and green bamboos planted behind the attic, which is quite leisurely and elegant. I wonder which previous owner left them here.

The maidservants from the Marquis' Mansion brought by Su Wan cleaned the attic carefully several times, and the environment here is quite good.

The only drawback is that there is no well. If you want to get water, you have to use a bucket to fetch water from the stream or river a few hundred meters away from the attic.

"Danqing, can you cook?" Su Wan asked.

Danqing was suddenly stunned by the cue, then shook his head and said,

"Miss, I have never learned how to cook."

"Then I will arrange a few maids who can cook to serve you here, and help you wash clothes and clean the house." Su Wan said.

"No, I can eat in the dining hall of the academy."

"If you read very late and suddenly feel hungry and want to eat, it's not a big deal," Su Wan said.

"Feiyue, I remember you can cook, right?"

"Yes, miss." Feiyue on the side nodded.

"Then you and Danqing stay here to take care of the prince." Su Wan said.

"Really not necessary." Su An said.

This busty girl is indeed his type.

But compared to Danqing, he actually doesn't trust Feiyue.

In his previous life, Danqing was willing to die in order to buy time for him and Su Wan to escape. There is no doubt that he was loyal to the Marquis' Mansion. Feiyue left the Marquis' Mansion before it was robbed.

In the future, Su An will not only practice the art of magic here, but also hone his martial arts.

As his close aide, Danqing will sooner or later know the secret of his dual cultivation of magic and martial arts.

However, he didn't want more people to know about this, not even Su Wan, so he decided to keep it secret for the time being.

"Okay then." Seeing Su An's insistence, Su Wan did not force it.

"If you don't get used to living here one day, just go back to the Marquis' Mansion." Su Wan said.

"How can I, a man, be so delicate?" Su An shrugged.

He could live in any harsh environment in his previous life, so the environment here is already very good.

Su Wan nodded. It was the first time that Su An left home and lived in an unfamiliar environment. There was no one to serve him except Danqing, so she couldn't help but give him some more instructions.

Su Wan said to Tan Tai Xuan, "I would like to thank Miss Tan Tai for helping my brother get familiar with the environment today."

"Miss Su, you're too kind. This is what I should do." Tan Tai Xuan chuckled.

"Miss Tan Tai, please take good care of my brother in the days ahead."

Su Wan looked at the simple and elegant Tan Tai Xuan. She was dressed very plainly and used a wooden hairpin to tie her hair. It seemed that her family was not wealthy.

However, she is very beautiful and talented, so it would be great if she could become Su An's concubine.

It just so happens that the two of them are classmates, and they can stay together often in the future and develop some feelings.

Zhou Qingyu is definitely the principal wife, but that doesn't stop Su An from taking in more concubines.

Su Wan was secretly calculating in her heart.
