Toma didn't expect Jiang Bai to come here like this. He thought he came by boat from Baling Island, but it turned out that he flew directly from the outlying island.

"Listening to what you said, I feel that Dao's wife's current situation is really not that bad." Jiang Bai sighed.

"The Advocate of Tianling covers the sky with one hand on the outlying islands, amends laws and adjusts taxes without authorization, has serious internal corruption, and colludes with the fools. The focus of the Advocate of Tianling is on the war with Haiji Island and the search for the Eye of God. As for the Advocate of Society, , it seems to be of no use at all.”

"Hey, hey, hey, it's too much to say that we are of no use at all!" Thomas, who was driving, had an opinion.

"Most of the social services we are responsible for are things like culture, education, and social services. We have done a lot of things, but it's not like we have done nothing!"

Jiang Bai opened the car curtain and tilted his head to look at him, "For example?"

He was really curious about what She Fengxing, one of the three Fengxings, did in this situation.

At this time, they had left Inazuma Castle and were on their way to the White Fox Wilderness.

After thinking about it, Thomas said: "We have never supported the Eye Hunting Order, and we have secretly helped many people to keep their God's Eyes."

The lady has long wanted Sora to join them. She has known these things for a long time, so it doesn't matter if she says it now.

Moreover, he had revealed their thoughts before.

Otherwise Sora wouldn't reject him.

Jiang Bai listened carefully and prepared for the next chapter, but after waiting for a long time, there was nothing more to say.

His expression was a little confused, and he was questioning from the bottom of his heart.

"That's it?"

Chapter 460 Please lend me your power

Listening to the words "That's it", Thomas felt like a mouthful of old blood was stuck in his throat, which was extremely uncomfortable.

It’s as if everything you have worked so hard for is not worth mentioning in the eyes of others.

"The Society is under the general's command and follows the general's will. It is not easy to secretly help those targeted owners of the Eye of God."

"Uh" Jiang Bai didn't know what to say.

He subconsciously replaced the person in charge of the society as Ningguang of the Seven Stars of Liyue. He felt that as one of the three most powerful people under the gods of a country, he must be like Ningguang no matter what!

Look at what Ningguang did when the emperor was suspended from death. Whether it was stabilizing the domestic situation, negotiating with the immortals, or the defense battle of Qun Jade Pavilion, he did everything wonderfully and beautifully, to the extent that Zhongli would praise him.

But you follow the rules of the public, knowing that the general is wrong but not speaking up, knowing that there is a war but not mediating, knowing that there is internal corruption but sitting idly by, you just do something to help the holder of the Eye of God protect your own Eye of God Such little things.

Although there can be various reasons, such as being unable to fight against the gods, being unable to openly rebel, exceeding the scope of authority, etc., Jiang Bai is still quite disappointed.

After all, there are only a few holders of the Eye of God, and they will not die if they lose the Eye of God. They are so concerned about the [wishes] being taken away, but they are indifferent to the people who are really suffering.

Hearing the unfinished meaning in Jiang Bai's tone, Thomas turned his head and said, "Mr. Jiang Bai may have some misunderstandings and doubts about our society. I am just a domestic servant. I will naturally get answers when I see the lady."

"Are your ladies the person in charge of the society?"

"No, the person in charge is the head of the family."

"Can't I see your master?"

"The head of the family has many affairs. Regarding the Eye Hunting Order, the young lady is mostly in charge."

Toma briefly talked about the basic situation of the Kamisato family.

Now there are only two people in the Kamisato family, Kamisato Reito and Kamisato Ayaka. Kamisato Reito is the head of the family. He took over the social service after his parents died unexpectedly. He is an upright young man and has not yet married a wife.

Kamisato Ayaka is his sister, known as Princess White Heron.

Although she is not the head of the family, Miss Zaishenli's power in the Shenli family is not weaker than that of the head of the family, and some of her abilities are even much greater than that of the head of the family.

Kong looked at Jiang Bai, and he felt that Jiang Bai had objections to all Dao Wife's practices.

He didn't ask what happened. With Thomas here, some things were not convenient to talk about.

The carriage continued its journey and arrived at Kamisato Yashiki in the evening.

Jiang Bai got off the carriage and followed Tuoma into the huge courtyard.

Following Sora, Paimon poked his head around and looked around curiously, "Is this the courtyard of Inazuma's wealthy family? It doesn't feel as exaggerated as I imagined?"

After thinking for a long time, she used the adjective "exaggerated".

Kong nodded, "There are only a few places in the world as magnificent as the Jade Pavilion."

Jiang Bai didn't feel much about this courtyard. There were so many wealthy people in Liyue that any one of them would be better than this place.

Toma led several people to a reception room, "Welcome to Kamisato Yashiki, some guests."

"Where is the Princess Egret you mentioned?" Paimon looked around but saw no one.

"Cough cough."

A girl's cough came from behind the screen.

"Behind the screen?"

Several people turned their heads and stared at the screen.

Toma explained, "As the eldest lady of the club, Miss Kamisato usually treats guests like this. It can be said to be the custom of the club for hundreds of years. Please forgive me."

"My expectations have been dashed." Paimon was a little disappointed that she had waited so long for nothing.

"A few of you traveled across the sea, and the journey was tiring, but you can only meet like this when you arrive at the house. Please forgive the lack of courtesy."

The girl's gentle and clear voice came from behind the screen, a little apologetic.

Just by listening to the voice, you can imagine that there must be a gentle and beautiful woman behind the screen.

"I have been looking forward to the arrival of these few people. From Thomas's report, I am also convinced of the power of [changing the current situation] possessed by these few people. Today's Inazuma, under the implementation of the Eye Hunting Order, the people's wishes Being trampled and trampled wantonly"

Hearing this, Jiang Bai frowned.

He can't understand.

Is desire such an important thing?

No one answered his doubts, and Miss Kamisato's voice continued.

"Although the Society serves the generals, because of its responsibilities, it is also the party closest to the people's livelihood. The power of the Society comes from the trust of the people. How can we sleep peacefully if we just sit idly by and ignore such a situation. "

Jiang Bai wanted to say something about the words of Miss Shenli, but after thinking about it, he held back and waited for her to finish.

He is a polite person and does not interrupt others.

Kamisato Ayaka paused for a moment, and finally said her purpose, "Please lend me your power, we will definitely be able to."

Sora interrupted her, "I'm just here to see General Raiden, not to rebel."

Although he had known Toma's plan, he still felt uncomfortable when this request was mentioned again.

He just came to see General Thunder, not to join any rebellion.

Why do you think you can change Inazuma's situation just by relying on him?

Although he is a little special, he is not that special, right?

Why place your hopes on him, an outsider?

The person behind the screen paused and fell into silence.

Jiang Bai glanced at Kong. A good old man like Kong was a little angry. It was really rare.

Sora had expressed his stance, and he didn't intend to continue listening.

"If you just want to say something high-sounding like this when you see us, then we are ready to leave."

Hearing the sound of turning around, the person behind the screen became obviously anxious, "Ah, wait a minute! Please don't leave yet!"

"As Sora's friend, I have some questions I would like to ask you."

Jiang Bai didn't really intend to leave, he was just showing off.

He still had many questions and wanted to ask the egret princess.

"Please tell me." Kamisato Ayaka was not surprised by Jiang Bai's words.

Before Thomas took them to the reception room, the two communicated for a while.

"Mr. Thomas, please bring me some tea and snacks. I like to sit and talk about things."

"OK, wait."

The tea was served quickly. Jiang Bai drank a cup of tea to moisten his throat, then took a piece of pastry and stuffed it into Paimon's mouth.

After drinking a cup of tea and eating a snack, Jiang Bai's eyes turned to the screen again.

"I would like to ask Miss Kamisato, what does the shōgyou think of the war between Kaijijima and the shogunate?"

Kamisato Ayaka said without hesitation: "This is the people's resistance to the Eye Hunting Order."

Jiang Bai shook his head in disappointment, "In your eyes, is the only eye hunting order?"

The main plot of Rice Wife is like the history next door, with a petty atmosphere.

Focusing on small things that are not important, we turn a blind eye to things that seem important to us.

Jiang Bai, who was influenced by Zhongli, could not understand

Chapter 461 Both Want and Want

(Ask for a monthly pass)

"Miss Kamisato, please don't tell me that you don't even know the fundamental reason why Kaijijima resisted."

Several people in the room looked at Jiang Bai, and Paimon, who was stuffing snacks into his stomach, asked directly.

"Is not it?"

"Of course not. After all, only a handful of people are affected by the Eye Hunting Order. How could the entire Haiji Island rebel just because of this, regardless of the life and death of everyone on the island?"

Kong thoughtfully.

He also felt that it was too far-fetched for a country to have a civil war just because of the Eye Hunting Order.

Even though most people with the Eye of God are in high positions and start to resist in order to protect their Eye of God from being taken away, war is not a child's play.

Are the soldiers below really willing to lose their lives to protect those very few people?

Shenli Linghua also knew that her rhetoric could not fool two people. She sighed and said:

"Because of the lockdown."

"Lockdown order? Why?" Paimon, who knew nothing about the benefits, continued to ask.

"Haiji Island cannot produce food and can only rely on foreign trade of specialties such as corals and pearls in exchange for food and daily necessities."

Paimon vaguely felt that he had grasped a little bit of the context, "Because of the national lockdown, they were unable to exchange for food and had no food to eat, so they resisted."

"Yes. This is the main reason for this war. There are also historical legacy, conflicts of faith and political differences between the two parties. The [Eye Hunting Order] is just a banner that has been put on the bright side."

Jiang Bai felt that there was something wrong with this group of people. If they resisted the national lockdown order, they would resist the national lockdown order. If they had to put the eye hunting order on the surface, even the soldiers below believed that they were resisting the eye hunting order.

When the eye-hunting order is gone, what will happen to the country-locking order?

And this slogan seems to be recognized by the public.

Maybe it's the unique culture here, but Jiang Bai doesn't understand it anyway.

"So that's it." Kong suddenly realized, that's it.

He has been on Narukami Island and does not know what happened on Kaiji Island, nor does he know anything about it.

"Then Miss Kamisato, if you want to face the thunder directly, do you support this war?"

Behind the screen, Kamisato Ayaka opened her fan, covered her face with the fan, lowered her eyes and weighed it for a while, then said:

"Our Kamisato family has always been secretly supporting Kaijijima, but Shabo can't do such a thing."

Hearing what she said, Jiang Bai was even more puzzled.

Since your Kamisato family secretly helped Kaijijima, why couldn't you stop this war from the beginning?

Since I can see General Raiden, can't I tell General Raiden these things?

Or is it that this god knows this but still ignores the wishes of the people?

"I'm curious about one thing. Why didn't you tell General Raiden about the suffering caused by the Seclusion Order and the Eye Hunting Order? Since Inazuma has been stable under his rule for thousands of years, it means that he is not a An arbitrary god.
