I'm not feeling right when I transform into Keqing

"Who said that these black stockings and backless stockings were too revealing and not suitable for sword dancing? But when I actually use them, I find that they are not only cool and comfortable, but they also enhance my temperament?"

Ningguang's words were like a blow to Keqing's head.

"How could I say that it can improve my temperament?" Keqing frowned and retorted. It was simply nonsense.

“Indeed.” Ningguang nodded. “I remember your original words were, ‘This dress is not bad. Humph, Ningguang really didn’t lie to me.’”

Ningguang repeated the last sentence in Keqing's tone, which made Keqing feel her ears turn a little red.

And obviously, Keqing also knew that Ningguang was just making fun of her at this time.

Don't let her lead you by the nose.

"What? Do you want me to take it off and give it back to you now?" Keqing snorted coldly and was about to end the subject.

Ningguang nodded: "Sure."

The corners of her mouth twitched and Keqing's face became stiff.

She didn't expect Ningguang to be so perverted.

“However, although I’m happy to do so, I’m only stating a fact. Why are you reacting so strongly?” Ningguang asked puzzledly.

"Didn't you bring it up first?" Keqing frowned. "Besides, this is my private matter, it's none of your business, right?"

At this time, Keqing regained her confidence. Yes, the engagement was her private matter, so if it was discovered, it would be discovered.

Why am I so afraid of Ningguang?

However, Ningguang became confused again after hearing Keqing's words.

"Private matter?"

“Could it be that… the Seven Stars of Liyue have the elemental power of the wind of freedom in their bodies. Is this also a private matter?” Ningguang asked.

After being stunned for two seconds.

Keqing opened her mouth: "Is this what you are talking about?"

Ningguang slowly fanned the folding fan in her hand and stared at Keqing intently: "Otherwise... who do you think it is?"

As she spoke, her eyes looked towards Keqing's chest: "By the way, is this little white badge given by her?"

badge?

Keqing looked at her chest, where she saw a badge that looked like a small white fox mask.

"No."

This was given to her by her pen pal, so of course it wasn't Qin.

wrong!

Keqing suddenly realized that Ningguang was setting a trap for her!

Keqing regretted what she said, and Ningguang put away her folding fan at this time, slapped it on her palm, raised her head slightly and looked down at Keqing who was sitting on the chair, with an inexplicable smile on her face.

"It seems that you have a lot of secrets."

Sorry, only one chapter today.

Chapter 79: A plan that should have failed

What secrets could Keqing have?

The biggest secret at the moment is that she possesses the power of a second wind element within her body.

This was also noticed by Ningguang.

And when it comes to the matter of breaking off the engagement, Keqing doesn’t think Ningguang wouldn’t know about it.

In Liyue, no one is unaware of the power of the Moon-Covering Heaven.

Even if it was Keqing, if Ningguang wanted to know her secrets, she probably only needed to issue an order to this group of Jade Pavilions.

The reason why I am like this now is just pretending not to know.

The purpose was probably to make Keqing restless so that she could be teased.

Keqing almost fell into her trap, but fortunately she quickly realized that this was just another conspiracy of Ningguang.

"Didn't you do a lot of things without telling me?" Keqing said, glancing at her.

“That’s right.” Ningguang nodded and put the fan back on the table. “Because some things are inconvenient to show, and even more inconvenient to discuss with you.”

"for example?"

“For example… there are also undercurrents among the Fatui in Liyue,” Ningguang said.

"The Fatui?" Keqing frowned slightly. "Is it the one from the Northland Bank? Didn't you say that he is nothing to be afraid of?"

“There is really nothing to be afraid of. No matter how powerful a person who is brave but not wise is, he will eventually become a pawn, not the chess player.” Ningguang leaned against the table, then reached out and took out a document from a stack on the table.

"Also, there was a report this morning that he had left Liyue Harbor."

"Leaving Liyue Harbor? At this juncture?" Keqing frowned. This was a bit inconsistent with the style of the Fatui.

During the ceremony of inviting the immortals, they should have at least made some movements, even if they were mostly small ones.

“And it seems that the young man doesn’t even know that the lady is here.” Ningguang said.

After a moment of silence, Keqing frowned slightly: "So, these two executive officers are carrying out different tasks?"

"Do they have any influence on our plans?"

Ningguang shook her head and said, "I don't know if it has any effect, but I know that lady seems to be quite interested in you."

"for me?"

Handing the document to Keqing, Ningguang said, "This is the intelligence the spies just sent over. It's about her whereabouts over the past two days."

Keqing took the document, opened it and saw a black and white sketch.

It was a noisy restaurant. A woman wearing a hood was sipping tea alone in a corner, while not far away from her, two women were sitting opposite each other and chatting happily.

One of the two women had long hair, while the other had twin ponytails, and there were two fringe on her head.

Huh? Isn't this me?

And it seemed like this was the encounter between her and Zhong Li in the teahouse after their first meeting.

Keqing then turned the page and saw another sketch.

This time it is also from a third party's perspective. A woman is standing in the corridor opposite a restaurant, looking at the second-floor window of the restaurant. Two people are vaguely seen in the window making and tasting tea.

Because of her obvious features, Keqing also recognized the scene. This scene was obviously when she and Zhong Li went to Wanmin Hall for dinner.

The third and final sketch is of Keqing coming out of the Hall of Rebirth.

The tall hooded woman was also hiding in the shadows.

Didn’t this happen just at noon? Keqing didn’t even notice that someone was following her.

After reading the document, Keqing put it on the table. Frowning, Keqing looked at Ningguang: "She is following Zhong Li?"

“Do you think it’s possible?” Ningguang asked back.

It is indeed impossible. Although Zhong Li is a guest of the Wangsheng Hall, he is not an important person.

What was an Asylum executive officer following her for? He was obviously following Keqing, one of the Seven Stars of Liyue.

But isn't this seeking death?

“Doesn’t she know this is in Liyue?” Keqing said.

"Of course I know."

Ningguang finished speaking, stood up and slowly walked to the window, looking at Lord Qunyu's Liyue Harbor and said, "Madam has a common characteristic with most of those executive officers, that is, they will do anything to achieve their goals."

"Although this is Liyue, which is protected by the Immortals and Qianyan, even the Fatui must abide by the law. However, if she is extremely eager for something, she will naturally not miss any opportunity. This time, our plan seems to have given her such a good opportunity."

The immortals were tricked by Keqing and Ningguang into leaving Liyue, and the Thousand Rocks Army had already been under the control of the Seven Stars.

Ningguang and Keqing could both predict what would happen at the Immortal Summoning Ceremony. There would definitely be some turmoil in Liyue Harbor at that time, which would indeed be a good opportunity.

However, Keqing didn’t quite understand.

"I don't have anything on me, why is she following me?" Keqing asked.

"Really not?"

Looking into Ningguang's eyes, Keqing saw her own face and her own purple eyes.

Slightly startled: "Wind?"

Ningguang nodded: "I heard a rumor that the Queen of Winter is collecting the Heart of God. It is the symbol of God's throne and the source of God's power."

"As the most reliable minions of the Queen of Winter, those executive officers will naturally take the lead in order to please the Queen."

Keqing frowned: "What does this have to do with me?"

"So I just want to ask you, have you stolen the heart of the Mondstadt wind god?"

Isn't this bullshit?

"If I could steal the heart of God, why would I have to go to so much trouble to carry out this plan?" Keqing asked speechlessly.

Ningguang pondered for a moment and nodded slowly: "That's right."

“Then, she may suspect that you are related to the God of Wind because of the wind elemental power in your body, so she follows you and wants to observe you more to see if she can get any information about the Heart of the God of Wind.” Ningguang analyzed.

"And...she hid it from that wealthy colleague, probably because she wanted to kill two birds with one stone. Because the executives themselves were not completely harmonious, and everyone would want to take all the credit for this huge achievement."

"You mean, she wants to take action against the Emperor?" Keqing asked.

“It’s possible. However, the Emperor is different from other gods. Even if the Queen of Winter comes in person, she cannot take away her Heart of God, unless... she voluntarily gives it away. You and I can rest assured about this.” Ningguang said with a smile at the end.

Keqing also nodded, she also thought so.

So she still felt incredible that their plan went so smoothly.

“That’s fine.” Keqing nodded and said, “Then the two executive officers…”

"Leave it to me, I will keep an eye on them."

"Well."

After saying that, Keqing left.

Ningguang rested her chin on the table and pondered for a moment before she murmured softly, "Keqing..."

Ningguang noticed when Keqing came to the Jade Pavilion and saw her that she seemed a little uneasy.

As someone who knows Keqing well, Ningguang naturally knows why this happens.

"You didn't expect this plan to succeed..."

But the same is true for Ningguang.

No matter from which perspective, this plan should have been doomed to fail, but why is it going so smoothly now?
