Still playing traditional Genshin Impact?

"Yes." Matsuura Kyohei nodded, hesitated for a moment and then continued, "Thank you, Your Highness. Miss Hisagi Shinobu said she has important work to report to you, but you are not here at the moment, so we can only ask her to wait at the Kanjo Bugyofu first."

"Kyuki Shinobu went back to Inazuma?"

"Yes, her work in Liyue is done."

Xie Yan was slightly startled, then nodded and said, "Okay, I will go back to the Kanding Fengxing Mansion today and take a look at your work progress."

Originally, he didn't need to worry so much. He only needed to ask the Son of God and Hanasari. But now he has been away from Inazuma for more than ten days, and he saw the offensive of the Kingdom of Winter on Xumi. After thinking about it, he decided that it would be better for him to pay attention himself. He also wanted to know the situation in Liyue.

The Kingdom of Winter has suffered repeated setbacks from him, and it is bound to make up for it in other areas. The right to mint coins is obviously their new goal. The pressure Liyue is under at this time is definitely not small. Jiuqi Ren said that he wanted to report important work, which may be related to Ningguang.

He had a good impression of Liyue. Moreover, if the Kingdom of Dongdong won the right to mint coins, it would be detrimental to the future development of Xumi and Inazuma. He had to find a way to help both publicly and privately.

However--

The general suddenly said, "No, you stay in the castle tower tonight."

what?

Now even Kamisato Aya couldn't sit still. Although everyone knew the relationship between the two princes, it was the first time that the general openly allowed Xie Yan to stay overnight.

But this is just the beginning.

Xie Yan just shook his head and said, "General, the work at the Survey Bureau is more important. I will come to the castle tower tomorrow. I will take Xinhai and Ying back today."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the officials in the shogunate gasped. Not only did His Highness Xie Yan refuse to stay overnight, he also wanted to bring people back to have a party?

Is this really something we can listen to?

This is a slide that you can’t even touch!

Ha, it’s moist.

If it wasn't difficult to speak up at this time, they would really find an excuse to slip away, for fear that the general would get angry and implicate them.

But amid the incredulous looks of the crowd, the general remained calm. After a brief pause, he nodded and said, "Okay, come back tomorrow. I'll contact Hanasari later and ask her to go to the island to assist you."

How can it be!

Everyone's eyes couldn't help but linger on Xie Yan and the general, their eyes almost popped out of their heads.

So His Highness Xie Yan was the one who led the relationship between the couple? The general was so obedient to him.

How on earth did he do it!

But the process of hesitating is no longer useful, as everyone has already understood that His Highness Xie Yan is probably Inazuma's future master.

For officials like them, getting this news would undoubtedly put them a big step ahead in their future officialdom.

But the government affairs had already been discussed, and at Xie Yan's eye signal, everyone turned around and left with mixed feelings.

Yingmei hesitated for a moment and decided to call Xinhai.

Although she has played a lot of ranked games during this period, she still recognizes Xinhai's ability to party the most... Although the Great Ci Tree King can also provide online services, Yingmei is always a little restrained.

There is no way. In Yingmei's heart, even if the Great Compassion Tree King was subdued by the beast of burden, he is still an elder worthy of respect, and he always helps her take the blame. How embarrassing!

Last night, the Great Compassion Tree King chose to bear everything alone again, and he received two energy replenishments. Poor little Cole, except for the infusion of divine power at the beginning, was pushed away by the Great Compassion Tree King and his share was taken away afterwards.

But Xinhai and I have never really shared hardships together. How can we play together and make Xinhai feel that I still have backbone?

Do I have to use the new supreme bone treasure technique?

With doubts, Yingmei and Paimeng left the hall, leaving only Xie Yan and the general.

"Huh..." The general breathed a sigh of relief. The absence of government affairs made her feel a little more refreshed. She had been too tiring from pretending before.

But seeing Xie Yan still standing in front of her, she asked curiously, "Aren't you going back to the island?"

"I'm not in such a hurry. Now that I'm back at Inazuma, I must see you and Ying first."

"Look at me and Ying?"

The general suddenly repeated it, his purple eyes fixed on Xie Yan, as if he wanted to get some answer.

Xie Yan seemed to understand something and nodded firmly.

The general's lips curled up into a smile unconsciously. Over the past hundreds of years, in addition to his improvement in martial arts, he would only feel happy and truly smile when he was with Xie Yan.

As a puppet, it was difficult for her to describe this feeling. She just felt that the confusion in her heart that day seemed to have an answer, and she also had a goal to pursue like Ying.

But Xie Yan's next sentence made her speechless and depressed.

"By the way, where's Ying?"

"...have no idea."

The general answered dully. This was the first time she expressed her emotions so clearly, although this dissatisfaction was directed at another self.

The puppet's instinct made her calm down quickly, and she added: "Ying is focusing on Pure Land research. She wants to use the power of thunder to intensify the radiation frequency of the void terminal."

Xie Yan was slightly stunned, but he knew that this was indeed feasible. He had previously just wanted to build a local area network, led by himself and Nashida, and then create several separate lines to connect the two countries. If Ying's plan succeeded, the two countries would be able to communicate without any obstacles.

But the more he looked at the double image, the more uncomfortable the general felt. The jealousy that had been accumulating since the day before yesterday surged up. She looked at Xie Yan deeply, suddenly stood up and walked towards the back of the castle tower.

She didn't know why. Xie Yan might be with Xinhai and Yingmei tonight, but she was not angry at all. Instead, she was obsessed with such a trivial matter.

It was as if...she was jealous of Ying. She could feel Xie Yan's different attitudes towards her and Ying. Compared with Ying, she was just a by-product.

Obviously, I am the eldest wife! Even Buyer admitted it!

The eldest wives of the Xie family are General Wei and Buyer.

"Follow me." She said coldly.

Xie Yan was a little surprised at the general's change, but he followed him anyway.

He didn't know the general's complicated psychology, but he remembered Ying's instructions and felt that he had not cared enough about her before.

How to say it, it would be too fake to say that he doesn't like the general. The contrast between the tall, cold and beautiful queen and the cute and innocent one is unbearable for anyone. However, the way Xie Yan gets along with the general has always been fighting and sparring. The change that has happened now is also because the relationship between him and Ying has undergone a qualitative change. The relationship between the two has not reached that stage yet.

Of course, he could also treat the general as Ying. After all, they looked the same, and the general could imitate Ying's personality. But that would be treating the general as a substitute, which was disrespectful to her. Xie Yan had always treated her as an independent being.

He really wanted to tell the other party about his feelings, but the general had a sullen face the whole way, and Xie Yan didn't know how to start the conversation, so he could only suppress his thoughts.

As expected, the two came to the martial arts arena again.

"Fight with me, I want to see if you can defeat me." Dream Ishin was projected in the general's hand, and there was a faint flash of lightning on the purple sword. It seemed to have something more than the pure destruction before.

Xie Yan was thoughtful. It seemed that after the battle with Ying, the general also realized the laws held by Lei Dian Zhen.

"Come on." Xie Yan also manifested his dream in his hand.

By this time he had realized that the two of them might be able to understand each other better through the clash of swords than through simple verbal communication.

The sound of metal clashing was heard, and two swords wrapped in lightning collided with each other.

The general pressed down the sword with a little force, but Xie Yan's strength was far beyond before, and a tug of war was formed. The two looked at each other through the gap between the blades, and she seemed to understand something.

The little guy who once needed her to deliberately control his strength now had the capital to fight against her unknowingly, and...his eyes were only on himself at this time, and he did not regard himself as an appendage of Shadow as he had thought before.

The general still didn't understand why Xie Yan preferred Ying, but getting this answer was enough.

"very good."

Lightning flashed, purple lightning crossed the sky, and the general swung the sword in his hand continuously, leaving afterimages in the air.

Her attack was as fierce as before, and having confirmed Xie Yan's strength, she no longer held back.

The clear sky suddenly turned gloomy. The divinity and power of the two men collided with each other, and purple divine thunder intertwined, attracting the attention of countless Inazi people.

"A moment!" "A hundred dreams!"

His mind entered a state of clarity and tranquility again. The extremely fast sword derived from Tengu's sword allowed Xie Yan to keep up with the general's attack speed. The phantom sword containing the power of dreams disrupted the general's judgment.

But this was far from enough. The general's swordsmanship had already reached perfection, and a random slash contained endless mysteries. After dozens of sword fights, Xie Yan was at a disadvantage again.

"The world!" "The world!"

Xie Yan no longer hesitated. The sword of world domination transformed by the sword skill of shooting and slashing hundreds of heads and the sword of willpower formed by human faith merged with each other. The sword light flashed and time seemed to be stopped at this moment.

Bang bang bang!

A violent explosion sounded, and the violent energy formed a shock wave visible to the naked eye. Countless pieces of gravel flew around to form smoke and dust. Although the general had tried his best to offset Xie Yan's power, nine bottomless charred trenches were still formed behind him, with faint lightning flashing.

"You have already developed your own swordsmanship." The general looked back, a look of relief flashing in his eyes, but it soon turned into a fiery fighting spirit.

Xie Yan was now qualified to allow her to fight with all her strength. The battle just now made all the pressure in her heart disappear, and she felt refreshed all over.

Although the feeling of climbing to the pinnacle of martial arts still attracted her, now that she had relaxed, she felt that it was not as good as before... not as good as riding a beast of burden.

After all, it is difficult to achieve the state of complete integration of mind and body in a sword fight, and the beast of burden even burned out her CPU.

Xie Yan felt that there was something else in the general's purple eyes, as if he wanted to eat him.

Maybe he wants to fight with himself?

But the general shook his head as if he knew what he was thinking: "You are far from being able to defeat me with swordsmanship. If you rely on your complex powers, there is still hope. However, the castle tower is not a suitable location. Let's fight another day."

"Okay." Xie Yan cancelled the dream in his hand, hesitated for a moment and stepped forward and said, "General, I don't regard you as an appendage of Ying, but it will take some time for our relationship to change. Of course, I shouldn't have ignored you some time ago."

He felt that the general's rank was not very high, so it would be better to make his words clearer.

Hearing his words that seemed like a confession, the general suddenly stood there for a while, looking at him strangely.

Forget it, it’s already silver, whatever you say is what it goes!

The general chose to obey Xie Yan.

But after hearing his thoughts with her own ears, the general gradually let go of her dissatisfaction. Come to think of it, if Xie Yan treated her as a shadow, it would be even more difficult for her to accept it.

She and Xie Yan also have their own way of getting along with each other, so why should she envy Ying?

Of course, she still thinks she is the eldest wife.

"Do you want to see Shadow?"

"No, I want to stay with you for a while."

The smile on the general's lips became more and more obvious. She nodded, then took Xie Yan to her room.

Xie Yan had slept in her bedroom some time ago, so he was not unfamiliar with this, but the two of them sat on the edge of the bed without saying a word.

He knew that the general was not a lively person, so he had to open the topic himself: "General, there is no need for you to pretend to know something when you don't. It makes me feel sad when I see you. Just leave it to me next time."

"I was planning to hand it over to you, and Ying also thought so." The general had a headache when he mentioned government affairs. "Ying and I are only suitable to be shadow warriors. When the next evaluation meeting is held, I will announce that you will be canonized as the king's husband and let you officially take over the government affairs of Inazuma."

Xie Yan was stunned for a moment: "Wang Fu?"

"I can also pass the throne of Thunder God to you, but you also know my requirements." The general's tone became more serious. "Inazuma is close to the Dark Sea. The ruler of Thunder must have the strength of a top demon god. Otherwise, how can we deter those who are defeated?"

But she quickly changed the subject: "I believe you can do it sooner or later, but whether or not you can become the ruler of thunder... Ying and I will protect you, as well as Shen Zi and the others."

There was determination in the general's eyes. She was different from Shadow. As a puppet, she could express her feelings without any burden. If she liked someone, she liked him/her and there was no need to hide anything.

Xie Yan was stunned for a moment, then he reached out and took the general's hand: "I will protect you, too."

The general smiled and waited for Xie Yan's next move.

Then--

That’s all. Xie Yan didn’t even hug his waist, and he still called himself the best shooter in Teyvat?

She knew that Xie Yan probably still regarded her as a puppet and was unable to change his preconceived impression of her.

While Ying was still studying in the Pure Land, the general suddenly took off his shoes and raised one of his slender and round legs.

"Do you remember the reward from last time? I can let you try again."

The cold and beautiful lady invited him again. Xie Yan swallowed his saliva and reached out to grab the general's calf, but suddenly stopped: "Wait, we just fought, this..."

He looked at the general's crystal clear toes, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

"I won't sweat." The general glared at him unhappily. That noble, beautiful look with a hint of disdain instantly made Xie Yan feel better.

The desire is really great and it is identified as Seven Star Entertainment.

The general naturally noticed the change in Xie Yan, and there was even more disgust in his eyes.

That's it?

But why can the beast of burden subdue itself?

"Forget it... Let's talk about it tomorrow." She shook her head and sighed, stretched out her hand to grab Xie Yan's palm and put it on her chest, and said casually: "Ying is very busy with research, just say a few words to her and go back quickly."

64 The general joins the party, Hanasari fails to quit smoking

After the battle with Ying's Seven Saints Summons, Xie Yan thought that she and the general had a "know-it-all" relationship, but her sudden action really caught her off guard.
