"Hard work?" Diona didn't quite understand and frowned. "But I heard that when people have difficulties, they will go to the Knights to find the leader, and the leader will solve the problem quickly. Whether it's looking for a cat or repairing a house on the roof, you can entrust it to the leader..."
"Anyway... since you are the leader of Liyue, you will help me, right?"
"Although I didn't get lost, nor did I run here because I was afraid of the monsters that suddenly appeared, nor did I run away with my eyes closed because I was chased by monsters."
"I, I also know the way home." Diona raised her head, "But, completing the people's commission is the leader's responsibility, right? I heard what the boss lady said... um, it should be correct."
After saying this, Diona crossed her arms, closed her eyes and waited for Keqing's answer.
But after she moved her cat ears once, twice, and three times, she still didn't hear Keqing's reply.
Because Keqing was wondering about one thing at this time: when did Qin learn how to repair the house? How come she didn't know this?
When Diona opened her eyes, Keqing said, "But you are not from Liyue, so I don't have this responsibility, right?"
"Also, Liyue has just experienced the disaster of the demon god. Now is a special period. All foreigners coming to Liyue need to register. Without documents, you cannot stay overnight in Liyue Harbor."
"Do you have ID?"
"ID, ID?" Diona panicked.
"It seems that there is no more." Keqing nodded slightly, then held her chin and thought for a while before saying: "Then it seems that we can only hand it over to the Qianyan Army and deal with it according to the treatment of suspicious elements."
"To suspicious individuals?"
"After being locked up in jail for two days, they were directly deported."
Diona was surprised, but suddenly looked happy: "Well, doesn't that mean I can have a place to live and eat?"
Uh, this kitten seems to have a different way of thinking.
Keqing was slightly surprised, and after thinking for a moment, she decided to play the villain to tease her. She nodded and said seriously, "Indeed, but I heard that the seawater caused by the Demon God's disaster flowed back into the Qianyan Prison. Now the prison seems to be full of... cockroaches."
"Cockroach! Cockroach!" Maomao glared.
"And centipedes."
"Centipede!" The cat got angry.
"Yes, and snakes, slippery snakes."
"snake!!!"
The cat just stood there in a daze.
At this moment, a voice came from behind Keqing.
"My Lord, are you here to entertain the children?"
Keqing turned around and saw Ganyu looking confused.
"This one……"
Keqing was a little embarrassed after being discovered. She just thought the cat was interesting so she wanted to play with it.
But it seemed that it was a bit too much, and the child was scared so much that his ears drooped and his tail curled up.
“That’s just right. Ganyu, please register this child and find a place to put her.” Keqing said.
"Place her there?" Gan Yu looked at the pink-haired cat-eared little girl, "Does the Immortal Lord know her?"
"I've heard of her name a long time ago, but I wouldn't say I know her. It's mainly because the leader of the Knights of Mondstadt is looking for her, and she just happened to appear in Liyue. Let's see if I can help send her back to Mondstadt." Keqing said.
Ganyu nodded slightly.
But at this moment, Diona suddenly shook her head violently like a rattle.
"no no no!"
"I don't want to go to jail! I don't want to live with centipedes, cockroaches and slippery snakes, meow!" Diona shouted and squatted on the ground with her head in her hands, even trembling a little.
Ganyu looked at Keqing. Although she didn't say anything, Keqing felt that her eyes seemed to be full of doubt, wondering why Keqing did something that was not suitable for her status, such as teasing a cat.
Keqing felt a little embarrassed, so she changed the subject: "Um, Ganyu, you came to this street to find me for something important, right?"
"Yes." Ganyu nodded. "Ningguang asked me to come to you. She wants to discuss with you the ceremony of sending the immortals and the drafting of the edict to the people of Liyue."
"Okay, I'll go right away. Well, I'll leave the cat to you first. I'll find someone to send it back to Mondstadt later. I'll take care of its food, lodging and shelter."
After saying that, Keqing left.
Ganyu looked at Keqing's back, then at Diona who was squatting on the ground, just when she didn't know how to start.
Diona's ears suddenly stood up, and she murmured, "But, if it's cockroaches, centipedes, or snakes, wouldn't it be unpalatable? If we add them to the wine..."
Kitty Cat's eyes lit up, and suddenly he had a bold idea.
Chapter 123. Do you like me?
Keqing was originally planning to look for Ningguang.
Although the overall situation in Liyue Harbor has been determined, some subsequent matters cannot be neglected.
Keqing will definitely go to see the Abyss Dragon, but before that she must make sure her home is in good shape.
Arriving in front of Yiyan Palace, Keqing subconsciously prepared to look for the person who was originally responsible for looking after the floating stone leading to Qun Yu Pavilion.
But there was no figure over there, and the floating stone was long gone.
Only then did Shi Qing remember that the Qun Yu Pavilion no longer existed.
After looking at the empty sky for a while, Keqing looked around and then walked into the Yiyan Palace.
There were many staff members coming and going in the hall, and many workers were carrying building materials and working on each floor.
The Yiyan Palace was damaged a lot by the Emperor's body and is still under repair.
Going up to the second floor and along the corridor, Keqing came to an ordinary door and knocked on it.
"Come in."
Hearing the voice, Keqing pushed the door open and walked in.
What comes into view is an ordinary room. The tables, chairs, cabinets and stools are all simple mahogany or black wood furniture. The shelves around and the ornaments on the walls are also antiques or calligraphy and paintings.
Ningguang's office was no longer magnificent and glittering, and Keqing was a little uncomfortable with it for a while.
"Are you working here?" Keqing asked.
"Yeah, what can we do if we lose our home?" Ningguang, who was sitting at the desk, nodded and sighed.
Then she looked at Keqing, put down the brush in her hand, stood up and poured a cup of tea for Keqing.
"Although you just woke up today, this matter is quite urgent, so we need to deal with it as soon as possible."
Keqing nodded: "I understand."
That's why she came here without stopping.
"The written edict to all the people needs to be carefully considered, and one letter should also be sent to other countries. This is a respect for the emperor and a recognition of our Seven Star status." Keqing said.
"As for the matter of sending the immortals to the ceremony." Keqing frowned: "Shouldn't this have been done before?"
"We had already started working on it, but it was temporarily stopped due to the Demon God's disaster," Ningguang explained.
“So we’re going to hold it again?”
"Ah."
Keqing pondered for a moment and nodded slightly: "The ceremony of sending off the immortals will not only increase the credibility of the imperial edict, but also the people of Liyue Harbor are still somewhat frightened after the disaster of the demon god. Holding a grand ceremony at this time can also enhance cohesion."
“It can also dispel some people’s fantasies.” Ningguang said, “Many people in Liyue still don’t believe that the Emperor has passed away.”
"There is no benefit in believing in a dead god. This is what the Emperor said, and it is also what you and I share."
Keqing nodded and said, "The era of the gods has ended."
“Not dwelling on the past is a way of being responsible for the future and a spur to ourselves,” Keqing said, then looked at Ningguang.
"Then it's settled. You will be in charge of the imperial edict. You are better at writing."
"Yeah." Ningguang did not refuse.
"As for the Immortal Sending Ceremony..." Keqing was a little troubled when she said this, because the Immortal Sending Ceremony has not been held for many years, and most of the people who know about it are old or have passed away long ago.
The immortal sent this time is the Emperor, so there cannot be any mistakes. This is a huge restriction on the selection of candidates.
"Ningguang, do you have any recommendations?" Keqing asked Ningguang for help.
Ningguang just smiled and said, "It's been a long time since then. The ceremony of sending the immortals has actually been taken over by someone."
"By whom?"
"Guest of the Hall of Rebirth."
"what??"
Keqing was a little stunned, because wasn't the guest official of the Wangsheng Hall Zhong Li?
Send it to yourself?
This was something Keqing could never have imagined.
Ningguang definitely knew Zhong Li’s identity. In fact, the high-level officials and immortals in Liyue Harbor now knew the identity of the Emperor.
Everyone knows that the Emperor faked his death just to let Liyue go, allowing her to step out of his embrace and grow bravely.
Therefore, when those who knew that the emperor was Zhong Li saw that she was going to arrange her own funeral, it was indeed a bit strange.
“This is too weird.” Keqing muttered, “Don’t you think so?”
“Maybe ‘Emperor’… no, it should be ‘Zhong Li’ now.” Ningguang said, “Maybe for Zhong Li… this may not be like a funeral, but more like a farewell to the past.”
It’s best not to guess what Zhong Li is thinking, because you have no idea what she is thinking.
And to be honest, Zhong Li is indeed the best candidate to perform the Immortal Sending Ceremony.
After all, no one knows how to bid farewell to Emperor Rock King better than her.
“Now that we’ve finished discussing the immortal ceremony and the imperial edict, I have to leave too,” Keqing said to Ningguang.
Their conversation lasted no more than half an hour, but in that half an hour they had already decided two important things.
This is the way Keqing likes, and it has been the common scene between her and Ningguang for a long time.
As two of the seven stars, Keqing often needs to talk to Ningguang about things, and it is common for her to be efficient and leave after finishing her business.
At this time, Ningguang should have just nodded and not said any more nonsense.
Because she also knows Keqing's personality, she always has endless things to do.
But this time Ningguang called her.
"Why? Is there anything else?" Keqing turned around and asked puzzledly.
“Don’t you have anything to say?” Ningguang looked at Keqing and said.
Anything you want to say...
Keqing thought about it, and then her eyes lit up. Fortunately, Ningguang reminded her, she almost forgot.
"Oh, and about the Fatui matter, we can use this opportunity to clean up some of Zhidong's spies in Liyue, and also gain a lot of business benefits."
After Keqing finished speaking, she saw Ningguang holding her forehead with her hand.
Ningguang seems to be sighing?
"I have already finished this matter. I am talking about other things."
Other things...
Keqing thought about it again and nodded. She did have something else to say.
It was just that it was difficult to say it out loud, but since Ningguang asked, she had nothing to be embarrassed about.
"I want to make something special recently, and I wonder if you know any skilled craftsmen."
“A skilled craftsman?” Ningguang asked in confusion.
"He's a master of forging." Keqing explained.
Ningguang was not illiterate, so of course she knew what the word meant. She was just curious: "Are you going to forge a sword?"
Keqing shook her head and told Ningguang that she wanted to forge a bracelet.
