But right now, the dignified Yae no Kōjō is secretly meeting with a criminal wanted by the shogunate. If this were to get out, the shogunate's prestige would be completely destroyed.

After all, Yae no Miko, in a sense, represents the image of Lord Thor in the outside world.

"Actually..." Yae Shinko said with a completely innocent look, "Su Zhe came to me on his own initiative, and then took advantage of me and then denied everything."

Su Zhe: "?"

Hey, could you please explain the whole process in detail? Don't just leave things unsaid!

He looked at Yae, who had a smiling face and was clearly determined to drag him down with him.

"Yes, the sinner Su Zhe came to Narukami Shrine to find Yae no Miyaji, and the two secretly reached an unspeakable conspiracy."

Kujo Sara pulled out a small notebook from somewhere and started writing in it.

As a celestial official, it's reasonable for me to prepare a notebook when performing official duties, right?

However, at this moment, Su Zhe felt like a million grass mud horses were galloping through his mind.

He strongly suspected that all of this was arranged by Yae no Miko. It was impossible to say that Kujo Sara's appearance and today's events were completely unrelated.

"Lord Kujo, you've really misunderstood. Actually, I've come to..."

Su Zhe remained silent.

It seems he came to plot something with Yae no Miko.

Ugh, so tired, I'm so disillusioned, let the world explode.

*Splat*

Su Zhe lay down on the tatami mat, not wanting to explain anymore; they could figure it out themselves.

All he wanted to do right now was stop time and yell at Yae no Miko Naoko a hundred times; that woman was just causing trouble.

Kujo Sara glanced at him, and after seeing the sullen expression on Su Zhe's face, the corners of her mouth slightly lifted, but she quickly suppressed it.

In fact, she was deeply moved by what Su Zhe said, and she knew that Su Zhe was not simply on the opposite side of the shogunate.

As for helping Manyo escape, she didn't have time to consider that for the time being.

Her mind was now preoccupied with matters concerning the two major magistrates' societies and the Fools' Clan.

And, were the things she did and where she stood right?

"Aren't you two going to speak?" Yae no Miko smiled slightly. "In that case, shall I speak?"

Kujo Sara remained silent.

Su Zhe waved his hand weakly.

"First of all, we must be clear that our goals should be aligned."

There was no sound.

"Then we also need to understand where the problem lies, Lord Kujo Sara. Although what Su Zhe said just now was a bit unpleasant to hear, I think it makes a lot of sense."

Kujo Sara said calmly, "Which statement do you, Lord Kyoto, find reasonable?"

"The magistrate of Kansai occupied the outlying islands, used his position to extort money, and colluded with the foolish masses?"

"Or is it that the Heavenly Lord is colluding with the Fools, using his position to provide them with favors?"

"The three magistrates have long been in Inazuma and are loyal to the general. How could they possibly betray Inazuma? Even if I believe that Su Zhe has no hostility towards Inazuma, how much does he really know about Inazuma? If anyone can doubt the magistrates' association without any evidence, then the magistrates' association will only be busy proving their innocence and won't be able to do anything else."

Kujo Sara was unaware of the details of the investigation and appointment of the magistrate, but she absolutely did not believe that the magistrate of the Heavenly Realm had betrayed Inazuma and the Raiden General.

Leaving aside the others, Lady Takayuki, the head of the Kujo family, has known the Kujo family's character well since she was adopted by them. Her devotion to the Raiden General is something even Kujo Sara herself is ashamed of.

How could such a person possibly help the foolish masses and instead harm Inazuma?

This long-established concept cannot be influenced by a few words, and Yae no Miko is aware of this, so she does not intend to engage in meaningless arguments.

"Does Lord Kujosa know why the Tenryo-bōgyō (Heavenly Commander-in-Chief) is implementing a grain rationing policy in Inazuma?"

"With Inazuma seclusion and an unstable domestic situation, restricting the large-scale purchase of grain under these circumstances can distribute the grain as evenly as possible and prevent some people from not being able to buy it. What's wrong with that?"

Kujo Sara said calmly, "In addition, the rebels have been secretly purchasing grain in Inazuma Castle recently. After the policy was implemented, the amount of grain flowing out of the castle has decreased significantly, which is of great significance in counterbalancing the rebels."

"I believe that the resistance will be defeated without a fight before long."

"Hmm, that's a very good reason. I think that's what the head of the Kujo family told you, right?"

Yae no Miko clapped her hands and laughed, "What if the rebels could get food under these circumstances?"

"No! All grain is now under the control of the Heavenly Territory Enforcers. Even grain transported from Inazuma will be subject to the strict control of the Heavenly Territory Enforcers."

"I see... So, all of Inazuma's food supplies are now under the control of the Heavenly Territory Enforcer. Conversely, if someone else gets food, it must be with the Heavenly Territory Enforcer's permission, right?"

Kujo Sara's eyes flickered slightly, and she nodded: "That's how it should be."

"Yes, that's good. I think we'll have an answer to this soon. I'll ask Lord Kujo Sara to take some time to investigate then."

On the tatami mat, Su Zhe continued spraying water... oops, he stared blankly at the ceiling.

Yae's goal was obvious: to recruit Kujo Sara into his group.

As for the matter of submitting official documents in the game back then, it was mostly due to some blue (in-game currency).

They follow the boss's official documents; how could a lowly ninja steal them?

Moreover, it's evidence of collusion with the Fools. Even if it's not burned, it has to be hidden somewhere no one knows. Unless the exact location is known, it's impossible to hide it.

Therefore, this action by the Fools is the best opportunity.

They need food to help the rebels.

If someone is determined to investigate, they will surely be able to find clues about what could support such a large food supply for the resistance army.

"As for the Kansei Envoy, they've been making a fortune lately by exploiting the crystallized bone marrow issue. With the Mikage furnace core of Tatsumarasa damaged and the smelter shut down, the demand for crystallized bone marrow should have decreased significantly. Yet, they've allowed merchants to use it to pay taxes. Lord Kujo Sara might want to consider what their true purpose is in collecting crystallized bone marrow."

Judging from the game, Yae no Miko clearly knows about the Evil Eye Factory.

In other words, she had long been aware of the fact that the Kansei was secretly collecting crystallized bone marrow for the Fools.

"That thing must be the raw material that the Fools use to make the Evil Eye." Su Zhe stopped spitting water and hummed, "The power of the Evil Eye comes from the remnants of the Demon God. If they want to manufacture it on a large scale in Inazuma, they can only do so through these things."

"Hehe~ As expected of Lord Su Zhe, you are right, it's just that we haven't found the location of the Evil Eye yet."

Master Su Zhe?

Kujo Sara looked at Yae with some confusion.

She knew that although this fox always smiled and seemed gentle to everyone, she actually hid a knife behind her smile and said different things to different people. This was perfectly exemplified in her.

Therefore, the use of the word "sir" is worth considering.

"But what was the purpose of the Fools creating the Evil Eye?"

"Why did they implement the Eye Hunting Order? And why did they create the Evil Eye? I have some guesses about the Fatui's purpose in Inazuma, after all, even 'he' came..."

Yae no Miko's eyes flickered slightly.

He, that pure white doll from back then, had his 'heart' stolen, but by some twist of fate, he awakened his consciousness. To become what he is today, he must have gone through unimaginable things.

Yae didn't continue, for the secrets involved were destined not to be known to just anyone.

But that's enough. As long as Kujo Sara can verify the truth of these two points, then with her help, it shouldn't be difficult to seize the evidence of the Heavenly Regency's crimes through inside and outside cooperation.

As for the Kansei-gong, Yae no Miko had already put the Hiiragi family on her death list.

The heavens commanded and obeyed, the decrees were made and obeyed, and there were also many fools.

“That doctor,” she said, looking at Su Zhe, “has recently disappeared from the diplomatic corps. Be careful, he might be looking for you.”

You should say that to him.

Su Zhe narrowed his eyes slightly, a strong killing intent flashing within them.

The Doctor of Fools, between him and that guy, only one can live!

"What does the Doctor want with Su Zhe?" Kujo Sara raised an eyebrow. "He's an executor of the Fatui. Isn't Su Zhe currently on Umijima Island?"

Yae no Miko remained silent.

Su Zhe remained silent.

Kujo Sara was a little unhappy.

You just said you'd have an open discussion, but what happened? You kept it from me?

"Alright, I should go now." Su Zhe stood up and looked at Yae no Miko, saying, "I will consider your suggestion, but you should be aware of how dangerous this is."

Yae no Miko knelt on the tatami mat, her hands folded on her knees, and bowed deeply to Su Zhe.

She didn't say anything, but her attitude was already evident in her actions.

Kujo Sara had never encountered anything like this before, which greatly surprised her.

Su Zhe simply waved his hand.

Although, in the game, I call my wife "wife".

But now that it involves matters of life and death, we must think it through carefully.

"Su Zhe, wait a minute!"

Seeing Su Zhe walk out the door, Kujo Sara hurriedly stood up and chased after him, but in an instant, she came to her senses and went back into the house.

"???"

Kujo Sara paused slightly, glanced towards the door, then turned back. "Lord Yae no Kami, this..."

She remembered that she had chased after him just now.

Yae no Miko looked at her and smiled, "This will be the power to awaken the gods."

...

Liyue Harbor.

The wind blowing into the harbor today is quite noisy.

As the date of the Summoning Ceremony drew closer, the entire Liyue Harbor became bustling with activity at a visible pace.

Liyue is a commercial capital and the economic center of Teyvat. Naturally, matters related to 'trade' are indispensable at the annual Ascension Conference.
