2275 You Don't Have To Do Anything(Chapter preview)

"Headmaster, the Fourth Prince and the others failed to succeed today. I wonder if there will be a backhand? They can't wait, and we have to take action." The head of the array department said.

"With You Yue's move today, they won't make any movement for the time being." The Headmaster said, "Just right, that gives us some time to prepare."

"That's right, we should also do something." Dong Li agreed.

"Do you need me to do anything?" Sima You Yue asked.

Judging from their words, they had planned something, but never put it into action. Since she borrowed their territory, she has to do something.

"You don't have to do anything, your existence is the most beneficial thing for us." The Headmaster said.

With her around, those people wouldn't dare to move the academy. It's a pity that she can't stay in the academy all the time, or else they need to do something, and she won't dare to mess with it even if she stops there.

"Since that's the case, then after you discuss it, I'll go back first." Sima You Yue nodded to them and left.

"Headmaster, why didn't you let her participate?" Someone asked.

"She said she was looking for someone here, and once she finds that person, she will leave here. This period of time can be long or short. If we rely too much on her and wait for her to leave, what should we do?" The old Headmaster said earnestly, "We still have to rely on our own strength."

"Now the Eldest Prince and the Fourth Prince are in full swing for the throne, and those forces have already stood in line. But the Eldest Prince and the Fourth Prince are not Princes of benevolence. No matter who they are in the throne, the other party and those who are neutral will be eradicated." Dong Li said.

"That's why they can't be put on the throne. But the other Princes are usually mediocre, their strength are low, and there is no power behind them. It's not easy for us to support one!"

"It's not easy to do, and we can't wait for the Eldest Prince or the Fourth Prince to take the throne." Yard said, "Director He, how about the things you asked you to investigate before?"

"During this time, I investigated the Second Prince, Third Prince and Fifth Prince. The Second Prince secretly supports the Eldest Prince, and his personality is also ruthless. The Third Prince does not depend on any party, his temperament is weak, and his cultivation talent is mediocre. As for the Fifth Prince, on the surface, seems to have no intention of contending for the throne, but in fact he secretly accumulates his own power. Moreover, his benevolence and righteousness are also shown on the surface."

"Old Headmaster, such three Princes... ah!"

Although they didn't want to stand on the side of the Eldest Prince and the Fourth Prince, the remaining three Princes were too bad, and they couldn't choose the taller one among the short ones.

The old Headmaster closed his eyes and thought for a while, then said, "We still have a choice."

"Who?"

"The Sixth Prince."

"Sixth Prince? He has been guarding the imperial mausoleum. That's really poor, and there is no power around. If we want to hold him to the top, I'm afraid it will be more difficult than the other three Princes."

"We have to protect ourselves now, but we can't forget the fundamentals. Azure Wind Academy supports a good and upright ruler. Since the several Princes can't, we can only put our hope on the Sixth Prince."

"How about the Sixth Prince? He has been in the imperial mausoleum for so many years, and we don't know how he is now?"

"I have seen him before, this son is kind-hearted, but not lacking in courage and determination. If it weren't for those things that were sent to the emperor's mausoleum and cut off resources, I'm afraid that the power around him would not be lost to the Eldest Prince and the Fourth Prince." The old Headmaster said.

"Well, he came back once two years ago, and he entrusted the Seventh Prince to our care. He and the Seventh Prince are not brothers, but it's really good to be able to get a safe environment for the Seventh Prince under such circumstances."

"I'll go find him myself in a while, and other things will go according to the previous plan," said the old Headmaster.

"Yes." Everyone stood up and responded.

"Alright, let's go down. Dong Li, you stay."

The other teachers left, and Dong Li sat back in his seat.

"Is the Seventh Prince still unable to cultivate?" The old Headmaster asked.

"Yes, he is already sixteen years old this year, but his temperament is like six or seven years old, no different from when he came to the academy." Dong Li replied, "The other Princes started training at the age of eight or nine, and the Seventh Prince only I'm afraid..."

If you can't cultivate at the age of sixteen, isn't that a waste?

"He just likes you and only wants to be close to you, so you should pay more attention. If the Sixth Prince can become a treasure in the future, the life of the Seventh Prince will not be bad in the future. Anyway, most to most we will take care of him, we can still afford to feed one more mouth." The old Headmaster said.

"The Seventh Prince likes me? It's more like he just likes the taste of the medicinal herbs." The moment Dong Li thought of the Seventh Prince, he felt a little powerless. He obviously couldn't cultivate, but he was very interested in alchemy. Seeing that his eyes full of innocence, he was not good at refusing him.

...

Sima You Yue came out of the Headmaster's office and returned to her courtyard. When passing by Dong Li's courtyard, she saw a youth clad in black leaning on the wall and looking inside.

Although Dong Li has a cute round face, he doesn't usually laugh. On the contrary, he was quite strict with the students, and the students were afraid of him. It was a little strange that someone dares to climb his courtyard wall now.

The man was lying on the wall, unable to go up or down, just left hanging. But he didn't care, he stretched his neck and looked into the courtyard, not knowing what he was looking at.

Suddenly, he didn't support the wall with his hands. He threw himself forward and then swung backwards. He lost his balance and fell to the ground with a thud.

"Hey—" The young man got up from the ground, reached out and touched his butt, and Sima You Yue couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

Seeing that he still wanted to climb the wall, she said, "Are you looking for Dong Li? He's not here now."

The boy was startled, and when he turned around, his eyes were still filled with panic, like a frightened deer. Sima You Yue couldn't help but admire those clean eyes.

"You, when did you come here?" The boy blinked, trying his best not to look flustered.

Sima You Yue pointed to the wall and said with a smile, "I was here when you were still there."

"Ah? Then didn't you see it all?" The boy's face turned red all of a sudden, he looked left and looked again, as if he had done something wrong.

"Yes, I've seen it all. Are you looking for Dong Li?" Sima You Yue asked.

"Yes, I'm looking for him, the classroom, he's not here. I'll come and have a look." The boy stared at her, "Do you know where he is?"

Sima You Yue noticed that his speech was a bit special, and then looking at his slow movements, she instantly understood that he was a child with insufficient mental development.

She slowed down her speech and said, "He was discussing matters with the Headmaster. Is there anything you are looking for him for?"
