Chapter 181 The Reasons for the Alliance Between the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Heaven Dou Empire
"Thank you for informing me, teacher!" Xue Qinghe said very respectfully.
"Between master and disciple, there's no need for so many formalities. Besides, even if I didn't say anything, I think the Heavenly Dou Empire, with its resources, could find out in a little time!" Ning Fengzhi said very modestly.
"Teacher, if there's nothing else, I'm preparing to return to the Crown Prince's residence!"
"Qinghe, since you've come all this way, why not stay at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School for a day?"
Xue Qinghe gave a wry smile and said, "Thank you for your kindness, teacher, but the Crown Prince's residence is very busy. I'd better go back and deal with it as soon as possible!"
After hearing Xue Qinghe's words, Ning Fengzhi understood that Xue Qinghe was determined to leave, so he did not try to stop her: "Qinghe, since you have things to do, I will not try to stop you. However, you should also balance work and rest, and don't take advantage of your youth to overwork yourself!"
Xue Qinghe said respectfully, "Thank you for your concern, teacher. I've woken up!"
Looking at Xue Qinghe's expression, Ning Fengzhi understood that Xue Qinghe was also helpless! Emperor Xue Ye was old and was no longer able to handle state affairs.
There were only two princes left, Xue Qinghe and Xue Beng. Xue Beng was quite incompetent, so Emperor Xue Ye had to entrust most of the affairs of state of the Tian Dou Empire to Xue Qinghe, who was therefore very busy.
To put it bluntly, if Xue Qinghe were not a Soul Master but just an ordinary person, such a high intensity of handling state affairs would have already broken his body!
Ning Fengzhi was also very helpless about this. Even if Ning Fengzhi wanted to help Xue Qinghe, he didn't know where to start. After all, Ning Fengzhi was just a subject. If he helped Xue Qinghe handle government affairs, it would be an act of usurpation!
Currently, Ning Fengzhi can only help Xue Qinghe by acting as his backer, deterring those nobles with ulterior motives, and making things easier for Xue Qinghe in the imperial court!
At the same time, for Xue Qinghe's health, Ning Fengzhi would also send Xue Qinghe various tonics to make up for the physical depletion caused by Xue Qinghe's busy work on state affairs!
Ning Fengzhi's concern for Xue Qinghe was not without reason. Firstly, as Ning Fengzhi's disciple, Xue Qinghe had spent a long time with him. Even a dog would develop feelings for him, not to mention that Xue Qinghe had always respected him greatly!
Secondly, as the crown prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Qinghe has the best chance of ascending the throne. Once Xue Qinghe ascends the throne, Ning Fengzhi will be the imperial tutor, and naturally he will be able to seek greater benefits for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!
Furthermore, Xue Qinghe is very concerned about people's livelihood. Once the Tiandou Empire falls into Xue Qinghe's hands, he will likely not forget the common people.
At that time, with the deterrent power of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, it will definitely be able to intimidate those nobles. As long as Xue Qinghe does more things that benefit the country and the people, the Heaven Dou Empire has a great chance of prospering. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will also have more confidence when facing the Spirit Hall!
Finally, and most importantly, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School lacks capable leaders among its younger generation. Therefore, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School desperately needs allies. The Heaven Dou Empire is one of the allies chosen by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. After all, no matter how weak the Heaven Dou Empire becomes, it will not affect its status on the Douluo Continent.
In addition, all direct descendants of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School are support-type Soul Masters without combat abilities. In order to protect the safety of the direct descendants of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the partners of the direct descendants of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School must be Soul Masters with combat abilities!
Ning Fengzhi always harbored a degree of vigilance towards those who joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School halfway through their careers, as he was not certain whether these Soul Masters were spies from other forces!
The only people Ning Fengzhi could trust were the orphans raised by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School from a young age! After all, he knew these orphans inside and out, and they had been brainwashed since childhood, so their loyalty to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was deeply ingrained!
Unless they are descendants of Soul Masters, the probability of those orphans having Soul Power is truly appalling, and the probability of having high-level innate Soul Power is even more frighteningly low.
