"It's okay. I should go a few more times to someone who has done me a favor. I'm deeply sorry for my impoliteness a few days ago."
Although the intelligence personnel of the General Affairs Department were very professional, they had almost never been exposed in such trivial matters as finding people.
But since I was too busy to leave and chose this method that might lead to misunderstanding, it is understandable that I would bear the consequences after being discovered.
——But what is the situation at the General Affairs Department?
It's fine that the scholar from Xumi was able to discover it, but how come even the doctor from the medicine house could sense that something was wrong? Have their levels regressed so much?
Although the start was not good, it was rare for someone to give me advice on my thoughts on human rule.
It would be a shame to give up like this, so Keqing decided to continue trying.
Just when the purple-haired girl was about to make one last effort, two figures walked out from the backyard.
Although they had some worldly air about them, these two young men were very outstanding in both their clothing and demeanor. They were Lin Feng and Zhongli who had just been busy cooking in the backyard.
Thinking that the Immortal Invitation Ceremony was about to begin, Lin Feng, who roughly knew the purpose of the visit from Yuheng Star, glanced at the Emperor beside him and said:
"No need to be so formal, Miss Keqing."
"I know you have no ill intentions. I didn't go to look for you before because I had other considerations. Now that you are here, why don't you stay and have a simple meal?"
"This Bubu House has had quite a few guests recently, and among them are some well-educated people like the guest official Zhongli who is sitting next to me.
If Miss Keqing has any questions, I think she can get some advice from them."
Thinking of Zhongli and Venti who are now in Bubulu, Lin Feng feels that they will most likely be interested in Keqing's questions and will be willing to express some opinions.
——After all, humans who dare to question the system promoted by gods are individuals who can easily shine brightly no matter in which era.
"."
Upon hearing this, Keqing looked at Lin Feng in front of her and the young man with golden eyes beside him, and then noticed a green-clad figure peeking out from the backyard.
After thinking for a moment, she finally responded:
"Thank you for your invitation, Excellency. Although it may be a little presumptuous, I will still respectfully obey your order."
In the backyard of Bubu Lu, in front of the dining pavilion.
At this dining table, which had already been changed once by Bai Zhu due to the increase in the number of diners, there is now a new purple-haired girl.
Although Hall Master Hu chose to ask Zhongli to pack a portion for her to take away today because she had to promote her latest discounted package at the Wangsheng Hall and did not attend in person.
But when Keqing looked around at the people dining at the table, she discovered that not only was almost everyone wearing the Eye of God, but the average quality of the diners was also terrifyingly high.
And she obviously didn't choose to disguise her identity today in order to express her sincerity.
But except for the clerk in the drug store, no one present looked strange because of her identity.
Noticing that the two seats opposite her were occupied by a white snake and a treasure-stealing weasel, Keqing felt that her previous understanding of her identity seemed to be challenged here.
After Bai Zhu found that Yu Hengxing was somewhat unprepared for the current situation, he, as the host, also spoke:
"Haha, Miss Keqing, please take a seat. There's no need to be so reserved. Since it's rare for us to have a meal together, it's better to focus more on the food in front of you."
"——Judging from Ms. Keqing's condition, the food here should be of great help to you."
Noticing the purple-haired girl's hard-to-conceal look of fatigue, Bai Shu pointed at the food in front of him and said meaningfully.
Even without making a detailed diagnosis, just from the condition of her face, he knew that the girl in front of him was used to staying up late, and because of excessive thinking, she had already shown some symptoms of physical and mental fatigue.
If you don't put down your work and rest as soon as possible, you will actually be showing some signs of trading your health for your career.
Although there may not be obvious problems when you are young, the bitter fruit of over-exerting your body will eventually show up one day in the future.
Just like those elderly people who come to see the doctor, the result is that they are plagued by a stubborn disease.
He knew that his kind-hearted guest must have seen this, so he invited Yuhengxing to dine with him.
Therefore, Bai Zhu pointed out directly at the beginning that these meals were special, hoping that this young lady, who was already in poor health at a young age, would take the opportunity to eat more.
".Hmm? Thank you, I'll just eat a little."
I looked around the table, but didn't see any golden shrimp balls.
Keqing, feeling a little regretful, tentatively picked up a piece of the fried shrimp and vegetables in front of her and put the piece of food, which was probably "carrot", into her mouth.
They look like some ordinary home-cooked dishes. Why did Mr. Bai say that the food here would be of great help to me?
Although she is very approachable, she has actually eaten a lot of street food.
But after all, she was born into a big family in the eyes of others. She has been accustomed to eating various dishes made by her own chef since childhood, and she is also very familiar with Liyue's cuisine.
Noticing the age of Zhongli Keqing, who was in charge of cooking, and knowing that cooking skills required accumulation, Keqing did not have high expectations for the dishes in front of her.
But just as she held this thought and decided to ignore the taste and give some polite compliments, she was met with an unexpected shock the moment the food entered her mouth.
"Um?!"
"--tasty!!!"
With a cry from the bottom of her heart, the purple-haired girl, who was clearly trying to maintain her image, accidentally spoke out her true feelings.
After noticing the looks from people around me, I suddenly had the urge to cover my face with my hands.
It’s not her fault. After all, who would have thought that just an ordinary piece of vegetable could have such a strong taste impact after entering the mouth?
Not only is the quality of the ingredients extremely high, far exceeding the food she ate when she was a Seven Star,
Moreover, the cooking skill of the guest official Zhongli who was in charge of cooking seemed to have reached a level that she could hardly understand.
Whether it was the seasoning of the ingredients or the sophisticated control of the heat, it was as if he had undergone decades of practice, which was totally inconsistent with his young appearance.
The most peculiar thing was that after swallowing the food, she clearly felt a warm current rising from her abdomen, and even the fatigue caused by staying up late and working overtime for a long time was dispelled a lot.
Where on earth did this ingredient come from? How could it be so much more effective than some of the best tonics? Was the food at Bubulu so good?
He found that the various rare ingredients that he could only obtain because of his Seven Star status were not as good as the daily meals in this medicine house.
At this moment, Keqing began to doubt herself, wondering if she lacked common sense because she had not personally gone out to experience life among the people recently.
Because the people in the Bubu House don't have the habit of chatting for a long time during meals, except for some family matters.
So this unique dinner ended at a relatively fast speed with Keqing looking a little embarrassed.
Having a clear understanding of the quality of her own food, the other people at the table didn't actually think there was anything wrong with Keqing's performance.
——After all, if you don’t think this kind of food is delicious, it would be really strange, right?
After the meal was over, Keqing, who couldn't help but eat a lot because the food was so delicious, felt a little embarrassed as she helped Agui and Baizhu clean up the dishes on the table.
After finishing all the chores, she had almost forgotten the purpose of coming here, and then she saw three people who came in a group to find her.
He saw the Xumi scholar who was his target, the young man with golden eyes who was in charge of cooking, and a young man in green dressed as a bard coming in front of him together.
Lin Feng, who was standing at the front, noticed the purple-haired girl in front of him, whose mental state had obviously improved a lot, and smiled and said:
"Ms. Keqing said when she came here that she wanted to get answers to some questions here."
"——It just so happens that these two friends of mine are both knowledgeable in various fields. I wonder if they can sit in on the lecture together?"
"."
Hearing the question from the young man in front of me,
As a Yuheng star, Keqing has seen many big scenes.
Looking at the interested eyes of the three young men in front of me, for some reason, I suddenly felt a sense of inexplicable nervousness as if I were participating in a year-end assessment.
Chapter 187 Lin Feng, who trusts gods more than humans
"It just so happens that these two friends of mine are both knowledgeable in their fields. I wonder if they can sit in on the lecture together?"
In the backyard of Bubu House, after Lin Feng's introduction, which was in some sense quite 'conservative',
Keqing couldn't help but focus her attention on the other two young men.
Because of the daily work needs,
While eating just now, she had already memorized everyone's names out of habit.
Apart from the guest official "Zhongli" of the Wangsheng Hall whom she had known before,
Keqing also learned that the bard from Mondstadt was named "Wendy".
What surprised her the most was that, unlike Bai Shu who was very respectful to the Xumi scholar Feng,
In her opinion, these three young people were actually communicating in a relatively equal capacity.
And considering the possible hidden identity of the Xumi scholar
Keqing, who originally thought that this was just an ordinary meeting, actually felt the pressure she felt when facing her teacher in school.
But thinking of the doubt that had troubled her for a long time, she finally responded:
"It's impossible."
"In fact, I'd be happy to see someone interested in my topic and offering some insights."
"——It's just that my topic may be a bit 'outrageous' to many people, and it's not easy to accept from a common point of view."
Having said this, Shi Keqing paused and subconsciously glanced at the young man with golden eyes standing in front of her right.
——It’s not that she hasn’t heard of this gentleman from “Wangsheng Hall”.
In fact, when she first took office, Keqing had already dealt with Mr. Zhongli without his knowledge.
At that time, she had just taken over Qixing, and because there was too much work, she planned to follow the usual practice and recruit some talents from the public to help with the work.
Mr. Zhongli, a guest official of the well-known "Wangsheng Hall" among the people, immediately caught her attention because of his talent.
Unfortunately, after a thorough investigation,
She finally gave up on recruiting this talented person to work for her.
——Just because this gentleman is as knowledgeable and talented as the rumors say, and is admirable,
But his way of thinking is still too much like the Emperor's.
Although he is very young, his views on various things are the same as those of the old teachers in the school.
While it places great emphasis on "tradition", it also exudes an inexplicable sense of decadence.
Therefore, in the following conversation, Keqing was very worried that the other party would not be able to accept her point of view.
When Zhongli saw the little girl in front of him looking at him, she seemed to be a little hesitant in her words.
After just a moment, he knew what the other party was worried about. Shaking his head, Zhongli pointed at himself and Wendy next to him and said:
".Miss Keqing, don't worry. Since we have already said that we are only here to listen, we will naturally not say much."
After a brief pause, he used his eyes to warn the bards who were eager to try, and then he continued:
"——The protagonist of today has been you and my friend since the beginning."
"You two are both rare young talents. Your communication with each other is very inspiring to ordinary people like me."
"——However, if Miss Keqing feels it is difficult to speak up, then my friend and I can leave first."
"."
Keqing was silent for a moment, then as if she had made up her mind, she raised her head, looked at the people in front of her, and said with a firm face:
"No need to worry, Mr. Zhongli, there is nothing to worry about."
"——If an idea cannot withstand the scrutiny of others, then it has no reason to exist in the first place.
Such an idea will not stand the test of time and will only be worthless fantasy. "
"I am very happy that you two are willing to listen to this conversation - to have someone evaluate my views from a different perspective.
Whether I agree or disagree, this was something I had always wanted but could not get.”
Maybe it was the first time that I expressed my thoughts openly in front of others.
This Yuhengxing, who was often known for his swift and decisive actions in the past, suddenly remembered something and showed a bit of the momentum of "burning the boats and crossing the river".
".This is really rare. Such determination and momentum are rarely seen in normal days."
"——I just don't know why Miss Yuhengxing would put aside her official duties and come to Bubulu to see me in person.
