"Dean, the Fourth Prince didn't succeed today. I wonder if they have any other plans? If they can't wait, we have to take action. "The Array Master said.
"Youyue, after what you did today, they won't do anything for now." The Dean said, "This will give us some time to prepare."
"That's right, we should do something." Dong Li agreed.
"Do you need me to do anything?" Sima Youyue asked.
From what they said, they had planned something, but they didn't put it into action. Since he had borrowed their territory, he should at least do something for them.
"You don't have to do anything. Your existence is the most beneficial thing for us." The Dean said.
With her around, those people wouldn't dare to touch the academy. It was a pity that she couldn't stay in the academy forever. Otherwise, they wouldn't have to do anything. Even if she stood there, they wouldn't dare to provoke her.
"If that's the case, you guys can discuss. I'll go back first." Sima Youyue nodded at them and left.
"Dean, why don't you let her join in?" Someone asked.
"She said that she's looking for someone here. Once she finds him, she'll leave. This period of time can be long or short. If we rely on her too much, what will we do when she leaves? "The Dean said earnestly," We still have to rely on our own strength. "
"Right now, the fight between the First Prince and the Fourth Prince for the throne has reached a stage where it is in full swing, and those powers have already taken sides. But the First Prince and the Fourth Prince aren't benevolent. No matter who takes the throne, the other side and those who are neutral will be eliminated. "Dong Li said.
"So we can't let them take the throne. But the other princes are mediocre. They're weak and don't have any power behind them. It won't be easy for us to support one of them! "
"Even if it's not easy, we have to do it. We can't wait for the First Prince or the Fourth Prince to take the throne." The Dean said, "Dean He, how's the investigation going?"
"During this period of time, I've investigated the Second Prince, the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince. The Second Prince secretly supports the First Prince and has a vicious personality. The Third Prince doesn't rely on any side. He's weak and his cultivation talent is mediocre. As for the Fifth Prince, on the surface, he seemed to have no interest in the throne, but in reality, he was secretly accumulating his strength. Moreover, his benevolence and righteousness are just on the surface. "
"Ol 'President, these three princes … Sigh!"
Although they didn't want to stand on the side of the First Prince and the Fourth Prince, the remaining three princes were too weak. They couldn't even choose a better one among the shorter ones.
The old Dean closed his eyes and thought for a while, then said, "We have another candidate."
"Who?"
"Sixth Prince."
"Sixth Prince? He has been guarding the Imperial Mausoleum all this time. He is really poor and has no power by his side. If we want to promote him to the throne, it will be more difficult than the other three princes. "
"We need to protect ourselves now, but we can't forget our roots. The Breeze Academy supports a wise ruler. Since the other princes are unable to do so, we can only place our hopes on the Sixth Prince. "
"What about the Sixth Prince? He's been in the Imperial Mausoleum for so many years, we don't know how he's doing now. "
"I've seen him before. This child has a kind and benevolent heart, but he also has courage and a firm heart. If he hadn't been punished to the Imperial Mausoleum for those matters and had his resources cut off, I'm afraid that the power by his side would not lose to the First Prince and the Fourth Prince. "The old Dean said.
"Mm, he came back once two years ago and entrusted the Seventh Prince to our care. He and the Seventh Prince are not blood brothers, but he was able to provide a safe environment for the Seventh Prince under these circumstances. It is indeed not bad. "
"I'll go look for him personally in a while. Everything else will proceed as planned." The old Dean said.
"Yes." Everyone stood up and replied.
"Alright, you may all leave. Dong Li, you stay. "
The other teachers left and Dong Li returned to her seat.
"Is the Seventh Prince still unable to cultivate?" The old Dean asked.
"Yes, he's already sixteen this year, but his temperament is like that of a six or seven year old. It's no different from when he first came to the academy." Dong Li replied, "The other princes all started cultivating at the age of eight or nine. I'm afraid the Seventh Prince …"
If he still couldn't cultivate at the age of sixteen, wouldn't he be a good-for-nothing?
"He likes you and only wants to be close to you. Then you have to put in more effort. If the Sixth Prince can ascend to the throne, the Seventh Prince's life won't be bad in the future. If not, we can just raise him alone. We can still afford to raise him. "The old Dean said.
"The Seventh Prince doesn't like me. He just likes the smell of the herbs." Dong Li felt a little helpless when she thought of the Seventh Prince. He clearly couldn't cultivate, but he was very interested in alchemy. Seeing his childish eyes, she didn't want to discourage him.
… …
After Sima Youyue left the Dean's office, she returned to her own courtyard. When she passed by Dong Li's courtyard, she saw a young man dressed in black leaning against the wall and looking inside.
Although Dong Li had a cute round face, he wasn't usually cheerful. In contrast, he was quite strict with the students. The students were all afraid of him. Now, someone actually dared to climb his courtyard wall. It was a little strange.
That person was leaning against the wall. He couldn't go up or down. He just hung in the air. However, he didn't care. He stretched his neck to look into the courtyard. No one knew what he was looking for.
Suddenly, his hand didn't support the wall. His whole body fell forward and then fell back. He lost his balance and fell to the ground.
"Hiss." The young man climbed up from the ground and reached out to touch his buttocks. The way he grimaced made Sima Youyue smile.
Seeing that he still wanted to climb the wall, she said, "You're looking for Dong Li? He's not here now. "
The young man was shocked. He turned around with panic in his eyes, like a frightened deer. Sima You Yue couldn't help but praise those clean eyes.
"You, when did you get here?" The young man blinked his eyes, trying to make himself look less panicked.
Sima You Yue pointed at the wall and said with a smile, "I was already here when you were still there."
"Ah? Then didn't you see everything? "The young man's face turned red. He looked left and right, as if he had done something wrong.
"Yes, I saw everything. Are you looking for Dong Li? "Sima Youyue asked.
"Yes, I'm looking for him. In the classroom, he's not here. I came over to take a look. "The young man stared at her." Do you know where he is? "
Sima Youyue noticed that the way he spoke was a little special. Looking at his slow movements, she instantly understood that he was a child who hadn't developed mentally yet.
She slowed down and said, "He's discussing something with the Dean. Why are you looking for him?"
