Ke Qing doesn't care whether you're on vacation or not. She'll just grab you and ask, "How can you sleep like that? At your age, if you don't work hard, what do you want to do?"
Then, without saying a word, he pulled Jiang Ning towards his office.
Along the way, for some reason, many people were sighing and complaining, as if their stocks had plummeted, while others had a big smile on their faces, as if they had made a fortune.
Upon arriving at Keqing's office, Keqing went straight to the point:
"What you said last time, this deity is just symbolic, responsible for providing protection and military deterrence. The rest is left to human governance, with the immortals supervising from the sidelines. Take a look at my plan and ideas..."
Ke Qing presented a pile of documents in front of Jiang Ning, who was completely overwhelmed.
No, this girl hasn't given up yet.
"Hey Keqing, isn't it possible that we don't have the final say on this? The Emperor hasn't even given his approval yet, is it really okay for you to get so excited?"
Jiang Ning said.
Ke Qing said, "That's easy. You can polish it for me, and then I will consult with the Emperor at the upcoming Immortal Invitation Ceremony."
"Even if the Emperor disagrees, I will keep revising and polishing until the Emperor agrees."
Is it possible that my master is already thinking about retirement? To be honest, looking at Zhongli's life now, it's not much different from the life of a retired old man.
Drinking tea, listening to audiobooks, watching plays, and walking birds.
The only pity is that there is no retirement pension; all the bills are sent to the funeral parlor.
"Let me take a look..."
Jiang Ning felt that if he didn't look, this girl might very well come to his house and cause trouble.
As Jiang Ning watched, he became engrossed in the story, and time slipped by unnoticed. Ke Qing, on the other hand, used this time to advance some of her work.
After reading it, Jiang Ning let out a sigh of relief, stretched his stiff shoulders, and said:
"There are no major problems, but if the Emperor agrees, we still need to pay attention to the new laws, how the supervision will be carried out, and the new assessment mechanism must be strict. The specific assessment methods are all very important."
Although she has her own guidance and radio waves, Keqing's creation of a rudimentary form of separation of powers is quite impressive.
Ke Qing nodded: "I understand. I will discuss it with the other Seven Stars and then consult with that True Lord Ge Chenlang and Yan Fei."
"Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll go first..."
Jiang Ning was on the verge of tears. How did Ke Qing manage to drag her out her perfectly good holiday?
"Wait, wait a minute, are you free tonight? You've helped me so much, I want to thank you properly and treat you to dinner."
Ke Qing seemed to become a little shy and asked.
Jiang Ning said, "...I promised my senior sister I would eat at home."
"That's it..."
Disappointment was hard to hide in Ke Qing's eyes.
Afterwards, Jiang Ning made up an excuse and left in a hurry.
Ke Qing pursed her lips, then clenched her fists as if to encourage herself, and continued to immerse herself in her work.
As Jiang Ning walked down the street, the system suddenly said:
[Host, I think this purple-haired cat is lusting after you.]
"Are you kidding me? What are you thinking? How could that be?" Jiang Ning didn't believe it at all and rolled her eyes.
[Hmph, she definitely likes you, I can guarantee it.]
"You don't know anything about Keqing. I actually pulled Keqing back then, she was my only five-star..."
Jiang Ning dismissed it with disdain.
No one understands carving cats better than me.
However, Jiang Ning clearly hadn't had time to build up his favorability and was completely unaware of this matter.
Keqing likes someone, and the way she shows she has feelings for someone is...
Try to get that person to work overtime with you, or keep pushing that person forward.
Honestly, it's quite abstract.
118. Kill all the men, leave the women alive!
"came back?"
Looking at Jiang Ning, Xianyun casually picked through the food on the plate with his chopsticks and said.
"Yes, my senior sister told me to come back for dinner, so of course I have to come back. I refused when Ke Qing asked me to stay for dinner, and besides, Master is home too."
Jiang Ning said.
Jiang Ning thought his words would please Xianyun, but Xianyun tapped Jiang Ning on the head and said:
"You, you really are so clueless. Yuheng Star invited you to stay for dinner, so why didn't you just stay?"
"what?"
Jiang Ning covered the spot where he had been hit, completely baffled.
No, why?
Xianyun sighed heavily, said nothing, and went to the side to sulk, holding her bowl.
Jiang Ning was completely baffled and could only ask, "Senior Sister, what's wrong with Master?"
Gan Yu glanced at Xian Yun, then explained in a low voice:
"Today, Master and A-Ping went to a family of exorcists. They saw that the family had four generations living together and their descendants were everywhere. Master must have been envious."
"Then when she came back, she kept pulling at me and Shen He, asking us repeatedly when we would produce a grand-disciple for her..."
The more she explained, the rosier Gan Yu's face became. What was her master thinking...? He even said he wanted to have a whole football team of kids.
She's a Qilin, not a pig.
Shen He also said, "Then, Master later felt that it was unrealistic for one person to have so many children, so she turned to you. She felt that the important responsibility of continuing our lineage would be entrusted to you..."
Who can blame them when Jiang Ning is the only male disciple of the current generation of immortals?
Therefore, it is said that Xianyun and Granny Ping have already gotten together to discuss having Jiang Ning marry more women. Moreover, Emperor also said that these women will be the next Geo Archons of Liyue.
The more bonds there are in Liyue, the better.
If it weren't for the abruptness and Grandma Ping's intervention, Quan Xing Ning Guang at Xianyun Temple would truly have been as beautiful as a flower and as slender as a tree.
More importantly, you can tell at a glance that she's fertile...
I've been secretly visiting the streets these past few days and I've learned that Tianquan and Keqing seem to be showing some promise. We can keep an eye on them for a while.
Therefore, after Jiang Ning rejected Ke Qing, Xian Yun was extremely upset.
It was as if he had lost one of his grand-disciples.
"...Master really is."
Jiang Ning was also speechless...
"Come and eat, Master. Your bowl is so small, it can't hold much food."
Jiang Ning could only say that.
After much persuasion, Xianyun finally came over. As an immortal who loves to eat, Xianyun has little resistance to delicious food... although he still needs to put on a show in front of acquaintances.
However, although Xianyun has now sat back down, he is still somewhat displeased, and then he pokes Jiang Ning and says:
"Look at you! You've really opened my eyes during your time in the wild. When you encountered a group of treasure hunters, they ran away as soon as they saw you, but you actually turned around and beat them up, killing and injuring many. Then you even looted all their money and threw it all in front of the Thousand Rock Army..."
"This is called eliminating harm for the people."
Gan Yu said.
"And then there's the Fools. I don't know what you're thinking. You keep all the women and send them to the Thousand Rock Army. The men are really reduced to ashes. If these women were all commanders, that would be one thing, but the problem is, you don't distinguish between commanders and soldiers."
"This...this should be considered as ridding the people of a scourge..."
Gan Yu continued to explain cautiously.
Honestly, she felt something was off. How could this junior brother have become a bully who preyed on men and women and committed all sorts of evil deeds in the master's eyes?
Jiang Ning explained confidently, "It's very simple. When I went to the Salt of the Earth before, I found that there were quite a few Fools. They were all sycophants of the Warlocks or the Lady of the Hidden Mirror in our team. I've brought them all back. If any of them get carried away and try to rob us or even break us out of prison, wouldn't that be a big catch?"
"You're right, but your arguments are all fallacies..."
Seeing that Gan Yu and Shen He seemed to be deep in thought, and even thought that this made a lot of sense, Xian Yun suddenly glared at them and continued to tap Jiang Ning's head.
Jiang Ning was already resentful about not growing taller, and then he started hitting his own head...
I'll remember this grudge. Master, you wait, I'll headbutt you back later.
"Let's eat, let's eat quickly..."
In the end, Gan Yu acted as a peacemaker.
After a hearty meal, Xianyun was admiring the moon alone on the rooftop when he saw Gan Yu acting suspiciously and Shen He looking expressionless, each carrying a pillow as they entered Jiang Ning's room.
Upon closer inspection, Xianyun blushed, then felt a surge of relief.
Hmm, not bad, you've learned to work hard...
Although the direction of this effort is rather strange.
After thinking about it, Xianyun decided to go and chat with Grandma Ping.
…………
Earlier, Keqing held him back from leaving, and now Jiang Ning has been invited to the Qunyu Pavilion by Ningguang.
Ningguang also abandoned her usual reserved elegance and sat directly next to Jiang Ning, showing her closeness.
The implication was clear: "Look, what a coincidence! We both have white hair, and even more coincidentally, we both have red eyes."
See, you called me Sister Ningguang again, right?
I'll accept you as my younger brother then. So, it's said that the rest of this book is with you... You see...
