What bad intentions could the original dragon have?

But now, the country of Liyue no longer needs this kind of thing.

"But, did you really give the salt cup to Clement like this?" Paimon asked, tilting his head.

"No, no~" Zhong Ling put his hands in his sleeves and showed a meaningful smile.

“Linglong means that Clement can’t leave Liyue with the salt cup.” Zhongli translated the meaning of Zhong Ling’s meaningful smile.

"No...no way?" Paimon swallowed. "Killing...killing is wrong!"

"I also think this is not a good idea..." Ying expressed her opinion. "This is no longer the era of the Demon God War."

"..." Zhong Ling sighed helplessly. "How could I possibly kill Clement?"

"In theory, Clement's activity this time is 'archaeological exploration', and he has already reported it to the 'General Affairs Department'. The results will be shared with the authorities, and the salt cup is one of the results."

"That is to say..." Paimon opened his mouth wide.

"The salt cup in Clement's hand will be confiscated by the General Affairs Department!" Ying finally understood.

C.14 Ganyu is stunned

Because the Fatui had been badly oppressed in Liyue recently, Clement was only slightly threatened by Zhong Ling. After returning to Liyue Harbor, he couldn't wait to bring Mora to Moon Sea Pavilion and gave Zhong Ling's Mora to Ganyu.

After paying Mora, he went straight to the 'General Affairs Department'.

Then came Clement's tragic moment.

Heulia's salt cup is a cultural relic belonging to Liyue.

In the recent Liyue, due to the passing of [Emperor Geo] and [Cangming Yuanjun], Ningguang has adopted an extremely strong attitude.

Even in today's Liyue, the salt cup is still an extremely precious artifact for the people's livelihood.

There is no way something like this could be taken out of Liyue.

Finally, Clement shared the results of the exploration, which is the history of Heulia, with Liyue officials.

Under pressure from Ningguang, the [Faint] finally had to hand over the Salt Cup, and received a 'reward' of 30,000 Mora from the Liyue officials for handing over the cultural relics.

That is to say, after Wan Yan paid 750,000 Mora, Clement still spent nearly 2 million Mora, and finally received a reward of 30,000 Mora and the history of Heulia from the Liyue official.

----

"Haha... you really deserve to be the [Tianquan Star]." Because Ningguang was brought out to negotiate with the [Fatty], Ganyu naturally followed Ningguang's side.

In fact, Ganyu is not very good at fighting, but after all, she is nearly four thousand years old. Even if she is not good at it, she is much stronger than ordinary mortals.

So in this negotiation, she actually served as Ningguang's bodyguard...even though the Fatui would never take action.

After all, Ningguang has been too powerful recently, so powerful that the momentum of the Fatui has been completely wiped out by her.

After Clement handed over the salt cup and everything was resolved, Ganyu found Zhong Ling and explained what happened and the outcome.

"Miss Ningguang is indeed very capable." Ganyu nodded.

In fact, most of the [Seven Stars of Liyue] throughout the generations were passed down from generation to generation.

For example, [Yuhengxing] Keqing, her predecessor [Yuhengxing] is her grandfather.

But Ningguang is different. She truly started from scratch and relied on her unique vision to develop to her current position.

'The power of heaven is supreme', this is not just a casual remark.

Ningguang, who holds the power to amend the law, is indeed the most honorable person in Liyue.

"But... I didn't expect that such a rumor would be circulating in the [Yinyuan Hall]." Zhong Ling sighed and said with a little dissatisfaction.

Perhaps, Zhongli doesn’t care about these, because Zhongli is Morax, and Morax is the demon god.

The devil's great love does not care about the words of some people.

But Zhong Ling is not a demon. She does not have the mechanism like a demon that would allow her to give up herself for the sake of her people.

"Lord Zhong Ling, what are your plans?" Gan Yu waited for Zhong Ling's order.

Although [Cangming Yuanjun] has passed away for the people of Liyue, she still exists for the immortals.

"No, there is no plan." Zhong Ling shook her head. "It's just some harmless remarks."

"Moreover, Heulia's history will be made public, and then the rumors in the Silver Plains Hall will be refuted."

It is very difficult to change some people's ideas. The Wanyan people in [Yinyuan Hall] have a very strong belief in Heulia.

However, this strong belief comes from the false history fabricated by their ancestors.

Historical nihilism is ridiculous and sad, not to mention the belief that exists because of this nihilistic history?

I wonder how many people’s faith will collapse after Heulia’s history is made public?

If you just know that Heulia is weak, it wouldn't be a bad thing.

Because a weak but kind demon god who is willing to risk his life to protect his people even in troubled times is more likely to gain people's faith.

However, Heulia died at the hands of their ancestors. Their ancestors were the murderers who killed their beliefs. This is the most difficult thing to accept.

In fact, if Wanyan violated the 'contract', then her 'rock-eating punishment' would be the truth.

But in the final analysis, regardless of whether Wanyan violated the "contract", the truth is the truth, and this truth is the sin that Wanyan and her people, the people of the "Heulia lineage", need to pay for, and this... has nothing to do with Zhong Ling.

"Then... why did Lord Zhong Ling ask me to come here specially?" Ganyu asked puzzledly. If Zhong Ling just wanted to take away Clement's Mora, he had countless ways to do it.

Why did they go to the trouble of asking Clement to send Mora to the 'Yuehai Pavilion' and then have her send him here?

"Because I have something to talk to you about." Zhong Ling's smile was a little shy.

"Ah?" Although Ganyu looked dazed, she had worked in Liyue Harbor for thousands of years after all. She could naturally see that Zhong Ling's smile was of great significance.

"This..." Zhong Ling touched his sleeve, then took out a piece of red cardboard and handed it to Ganyu.

"!!!" Ganyu took the hard object and widened her eyes.

Her fingers trembled as she opened the cardboard.

'Marriage Certificate'

'The two families are united in marriage and form a good marriage, a match made in heaven'

'Look at the peach blossoms today, they are so bright and beautiful, it's a good place to stay'

'May your descendants continue to prosper in the coming years'

'I hereby write to you a promise of a long life'

'It is better to record the Red Leaf Alliance in the Mandarin Duck Genealogy'

'bridegroom:'

'bride:'

'Married on X month X day XXXX'

'This certificate'

"Marriage... Marriage certificate?!" Gan Yu's eyes widened, and even her voice began to tremble. "【Yuan Jun】Why are you writing this!?"

"Shh, don't shout so loudly." Zhong Ling noticed Ganyu's movements in advance and instantly set up a talisman barrier to block Ganyu's voice.

"Oh, yeah... I'm sorry." Ganyu also knew that she almost got into trouble, so she quickly shrank her neck and apologized. "But... you wrote this..."

"Ah... I understand." Ganyu suddenly remembered that just one day before the decisive battle between [Cangming Yuanjun] and [Demon of Whirlpool], she happened to be in the 'General Affairs Department' and met Ying who came to the 'General Affairs Department' for consulting business.

Since they happened to know each other, she started a conversation with Ying. The questions Ying asked were about the marriage process in Liyue, and she also took away a stamped "Declaration of Application for Marriage Registration".

Originally, this thing was not allowed to leave the gate of the 'General Affairs Department', but because it was Ganyu who handled Ying's naturalization in Liyue, she knew that Ying was Zhong Ling's person.

So I made an exception and let Ying take one away.

But there was no news afterwards, and Ganyu also forgot about it.

Now I see... this is going to be a big mess! ?

C.15 Linglong can't do anything about Ying

The meaning of the marriage certificate is "When the peach blossoms are in full bloom, it is a good time to get married. It is expected that in the future, your descendants will be like melon vines, and your descendants will prosper for generations."

"Hmm..." Gan Yu looked at the marriage certificate and pondered for a while. "Are you... going to split off a clone as a child?"

"Hmm? Why do you say that?" Zhong Ling was stunned by Ganyu's wonderful thinking.

"It's impossible for you and Miss Ying to be together... 'Erchang Erchi', right?" Ganyu said with her head tilted.

"Well...indeed." Zhong Ling nodded slightly.

If necessary, we can indeed split out a clone as Ganyu said and then cultivate it.

After all, Zhong Ling is a creature of elements and is different from ordinary immortals.

Immortals are, after all, "living beings", while Zhong Ling and the others can only be considered "lives", the two are completely different.

"Then...it can't be written like this?" Zhong Ling asked Gan Yu. She called Gan Yu here because she didn't know how to write the marriage certificate for the time being.

It was obvious that the original "sample" of the marriage certificate was written by Zhong Ling.

But if both parties are women, the marriage certificate seems a little inappropriate.

"Hmm...it doesn't matter actually." Ganyu shook her head. Theoretically, Liyue did not prohibit same-sex marriage, but judging from the sample of the marriage certificate, [Cangming Yuanjun] had not considered the issue of same-sex marriage.

I didn't expect this to backfire on me.

But in the final analysis, a marriage certificate is a marriage certificate, which is a civil document, while the 'Declaration of Application for Marriage Registration' is an official document.

Therefore, how the marriage certificate is written has nothing to do with Ganyu. As long as the "Declaration of Application for Marriage Registration" is written, it doesn't matter as long as Ganyu is there.

"Okay then." Zhong Ling nodded, her immortal power flowing through her fingertips. A drop of ink gathered on her fingertips and then turned into the three words 'Ying' and 'Zhong Ling'.

Under Zhong Ling's control, three words fell into the blank space.

'Groom: Ying'

'The Bride: Zhong Ling'

"Do you need me to arrange it at that time?" Ganyu asked Zhong Ling.

As for what style of wedding it was, Ganyu simply didn't ask.

Since Zhong Ling would never choose a wedding in another country, it must be a Liyue one.

"No need, my brother will arrange it." Zhong Ling shook her head slightly.

"Master Zhongli will preside over it? That's good." When it comes to Liyue traditions, no one knows more about it than Zhongli. "But what about Miss Ying's dress?"

Ganyu knew that Zhong Ling would definitely make a lot of preparations, but wedding dresses were very important.

Zhong Ling's own wedding dress must have been woven and embroidered by herself.

But the glowing...

"I don't know either." Zhong Ling shook her head. "I still haven't decided what kind of wedding dress to give Ying."

Zhong Ling must make Ying's wedding dress herself.

But she didn't know which one to make for Ying, as the phoenix coronet and bridal robe were the bride's wedding attire.

As the 'groom', Ying theoretically wore official uniform.

This is also the origin of the term "groom", because the man wore the official's attire on the wedding day.

"Oh..." Ganyu also fell into deep thought.

The phoenix coronet and bridal bridal robe have a veil, and as the groom, Ying will naturally have to show his face in public during the wedding, so he cannot wear a veil.

And the official uniform... looks weird on Ying.

"Why don't you ask Miss Ying?" Gan Yu said after thinking for a while.

"Hmm..." Zhong Ling's eyes seemed a little vague.

"Now is not the time for you to be shy, right?" Gan Yu advised. "Although your marriage to Miss Ying is already very unethical..."

"..." Zhong Ling hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly Ling Ji moved. "What is the wedding like now?"

"Wedding nowadays..." Ganyu recalled and then told Zhong Ling the process.

"A lot has been changed." Zhong Ling nodded. "I understand. I will discuss it with my brother."
