Chapter 690: Chapter 690: The Vice Dean’s Challenge (Part 1)

Feng Bailing said with a smile,

"Every time I see you, Ninth Prince, I feel like I’m the one who is truly blind."

It must be said that Dongfang Mosheng’s sense of smell and hearing were unparalleled. In the Competition Among Ten Countries, he managed to stay safe and sound relying solely on his hearing and sense of smell and contributed significantly to Great Chu Team B.

Dongfang Mosheng smiled and said nothing.

"I heard that you fell ill after returning from the Ten Countries competition."

Feng Bailing noticed that Dongfang Mosheng did indeed look somewhat haggard. Dongfang Mosheng’s skin was naturally pale, even whiter than a woman’s, and now it seemed almost translucent, adding a touch of vulnerable beauty to him.

"My constitution has always been rather weak; it might have been due to the exhausting journey during the Ten Countries competition, but it’s nothing serious now."

Dongfang Mosheng said with a smile.

"I wouldn’t have come today either, but I heard that the vice president called a meeting with all the teachers to discuss some important matters, so I had to rush over."

Dongfang Mosheng had also heard that after the dean left Yuxiu Academy, Feng Bailing took over, although there seemed to be some grievance between Feng Bailing and the vice dean.

Feng Bailing chuckled. The vice dean had never liked her, and her calling all the teachers certainly didn’t bode well.

"Let’s go inside. I’m quite curious as to what the vice dean is up to."

Feng Bailing and Dongfang Mosheng walked into Yuxiu Academy, chatting and laughing.

During the day at Yuxiu Academy, the vice dean had already gathered all the teachers, most of whom were female, with only a very few male teachers.

Among those present were the female students of Yuxiu Academy, and Dongfang Li was also there.

At this moment, he was somewhat distracted, looking left and right, not having noticed Feng Bailing’s arrival, which disappointed him slightly.

"Today, I’ve gathered everyone here to discuss a matter of great importance. Yuxiu Academy has enjoyed an excellent reputation over the years, having nurtured many outstanding female students who are renowned across the land. Not long ago, the dean left due to some matters, leaving Yuxiu Academy in the hands of Feng Bailing. Everyone knows that Feng Bailing was expelled from Yuxiu Academy before. Her character and conduct are mediocre, and when she was a student, she often skipped classes, a bad example among female students. How could such a person take over as the dean of Yuxiu Academy?"

The vice dean said, indignant.

She originally hoped that Noble Consort Dugu would intervene and take back Yuxiu Academy, which seemed almost certain, but unexpectedly, Feng Bailing managed to outmaneuver Noble Consort Dugu somehow.

Seeing that the position of dean was out of reach, the vice dean came up with another scheme. If imperial power couldn’t make Feng Bailing yield, then public opinion would decide.

Most of the female students present disliked Feng Bailing and as for the teachers, it goes without saying; they also thought Feng Bailing lacked the ability to take over as the dean.

The students and teachers unified their opposition to Feng Bailing, which would provide the vice dean with a chance to seize the position.

"Depose Feng Bailing!"

"Only the vice dean is qualified to be our dean."

Dongfang Li thought the vice dean had invited him over early in the morning for some matter, not expecting that it was to deal with Feng Bailing.

Hearing the vice dean continue to enumerate Feng Bailing’s various misdeeds, Dongfang Li couldn’t bear to listen any longer.

He let out a cold snort.

"I can’t help but feel that Feng Bailing is far more talented than you."

As Dongfang Li spoke, the vice-dean’s face turned green with anger.

"Seventh Prince, it’s no surprise that you favor her since you had a prior engagement with Feng Bailing. However, it is well known that Feng Bailing has a serious record of absenteeism as a student. Not to mention, her skills are subpar, how could she possibly be compared to the vice-dean, whose knowledge is profound?"

Mo Qianqian, a female student, was the first to stand up in opposition.

She, too, is a supporter of the vice-dean, and she would never allow someone like Feng Bailing to take charge of Yuxiu Academy.

"Who said I am biased towards her. I can’t be bothered to argue with you women and children."

Dongfang Li was about to leave when he said this.

"Seventh Prince, please wait. Dismissing Feng Bailing is not just my opinion alone. She lacks both virtue and talent, and I am willing to compete with her academically. Therefore, I have invited Noble Consort Dugu to preside over justice. I also know that Feng Bailing was personally appointed by the president as her successor. To dismiss her rashly would lead to rumors. To convince the public, I have also invited Sacrificial Officer Guo from the Imperial Academy, as well as the Seventh Prince, to help judge fairly between me and Feng Bailing to see who is more suitable to be the dean."

As the vice-dean spoke, Dongfang Li was forced to pause. At that moment, Noble Consort Dugu, followed by several palace maids, entered. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Noble Consort Dugu gave a slight nod to Dongfang Li upon seeing him.

"Seventh Prince, since the vice-dean is so sincere, we should certainly cooperate. Yuxiu Academy is the premier women’s academy of Great Chu. Choosing the appropriate dean is not only crucial for the academy itself but also for the future of Great Chu. I also agree to let her compete with Princess Consort Wu."

Saying that, Noble Consort Dugu addressed all the students and teachers.

"Everyone rest assured, whether it’s I, the Seventh Prince, or Sacrificial Officer Guo, we will all uphold justice and select the most suitable candidate for dean."

Seeing Noble Consort Dugu’s composed and generous demeanor, the female students were full of admiration. Recently, the various commendations of Noble Consort Dugu had surpassed those of Nalan Yan’er, and she had become the new role model in the eyes of the students.

Upon seeing this, Mo Qianqian also silently mused that Noble Consort Dugu was not only beautiful but also first-rate in scholarship, and even the Emperor showed her great favor. It seemed that she should find a way to curry favor with her more intentionally.

As Mo Qianqian was thinking this, a palace maid beside Noble Consort Dugu spoke out.

"Your Majesty the Noble Princess Consort, Prince Wu’s wife and the Ninth Prince have arrived."

Not long after Feng Bailing entered yuxiu Academy, a female student came to find her, saying that the vice-dean and a group of female teachers were waiting for her in the daytime class.

Upon hearing this, Feng Bailing knew that the arrival was ill-intended, yet she had not expected the vice-dean to have invited Noble Consort Dugu, Dongfang Li, and Sacrificial Officer Guo to come.

By this time, except for Sacrificial Officer Guo, who was not yet present, both Noble Consort Dugu and Dongfang Li had arrived.

"Bai Ling, no good comes from such guests, you need not accept her challenge."

In the past, Feng Bailing would have been too lazy to have a contest of skills with the vice-dean, but the dean entrusted Yuxiu Academy to her, hoping she would manage it well.

After all, Yuxiu Academy was the culmination of many years of hard work by the dean, and Feng Bailing did not want the vice-dean and Noble Consort Dugu to extend their reach into it. In that case, she had to make the vice-dean convincingly acknowledge her authority, and at the same time, win the support of all the female students and teachers of Yuxiu Academy.

Feng Bailing thought to herself.

"My apologies, I am late," said Sacrificial Officer Guo, arriving belatedly, but what surprised Feng Bailing was that among those who came with him was Feng Bailing.

Why would he be here?

Feng Bailing frowned.
