Huixin took a small notebook to write down Zhongli's words, and took out a lot of ointment.
"What about the balm? I have prepared several kinds of balm, and I don't know if the emperor will like that scent..."
These balms are relatively small and are samples, and the finished product has not yet been made.
Looking at the row of ointments in front of him, with various fragrances entering his nose, Zhongli thought for a moment and said:
"I don't know about that. Maybe it would be a good idea to put these in front of the statue and let the statue choose..."
"Can this method still be used?" Huixin said that she had learned another trick.
While several people were chatting, a girl with hair combed into cat ears and a long sword hanging on her waist came over.
"wisdom!"
"Miss Keqing!" Huixin was shocked when she saw the person coming.
"I didn't see your people at Yuehai Pavilion, so I guessed you were here." Ke Qing walked closer and stood still.
She was wearing a light white top embroidered with silver patterns, and the sleeves were made wider than usual, rustling in the wind. The waist is tightened, the skirts that cover the thighs are layered, and the black stockings wrap the entire legs.
A pair of round and big almond eyes, a tall nose, a pink face, and fair skin.
She looks like a rich girl from some family.
However, her waist was straight, and she had a calm and dignified look when looking at people. Even though she didn't look very old, no one dared to look down on her.
She looked at Zhongli and Jiang Bai beside Huixin.
"Who are these two?"
"This is Mr. Zhongli and Mr. Jiang Bai from the Hall of Rebirth." Huixin introduced.
After introducing Zhongli and Jiang Bai to Keqing, she introduced Keqing to them.
"This is Yuheng Xing Keqing, one of the Seven Stars of Liyue. She is also the host of today's invitation ceremony."
Yuhengxing and Tianquanxing are the few people among this generation of Liyue Seven Stars who like to be public, so the external image of Liyue Seven Stars is dominated by these two people.
"Are you Yuheng Xingkeqing? You look about the same age as our hall master. You are really young and promising!" Jiang Bai sighed and praised him.
As the person in charge of Liyue under Emperor Yan Wang, it is hard to imagine that Keqing, one of the Seven Stars, is so young.
He thought that people with power like this would generally be older, elderly.
The age of this Yuhengxing was really beyond his expectation.
"I have long admired my name."
Zhongli is much simpler.
His tone was calm and did not change in any way because the other party was Qixing.
"Hello."
Keqing nodded slightly. Although she was one of the Seven Stars, she was not difficult to get along with, and she did not have an arrogant attitude because they were ordinary civilians.
But she also didn't respond much to Jiang Bai's compliment.
"Miss Keqing, why do you want to see me?" Huixin asked in confusion.
You need to come out to find her in person, which is no small matter.
Keqing did not hide anything and directly stated her request, "The immortal invitation ceremony in previous years was too static. The emperor must be tired of seeing these things. I want to get something fresh."
"Something new?" This sudden request caught Hui Xin off guard.
"Yes." Ke Qing walked around the table, looked at the various ores placed on it, and said unhurriedly:
"In previous years, these were the ores and glazed lilies. They have no other use besides being beautiful, and they are not conducive to the emperor's understanding of the current Liyue Port."
"The emperor only comes once a year, so this time he comes, he must understand what happened this year. Otherwise, how will he know that his decree is correct?"
Although the girl is not very old, she already has a strong aura and speaks loudly.
"We have never done this in previous years. Is it not good if we rashly bring government affairs to the table for the emperor to see..."
Moreover, there are quite a lot of government affairs in a year, and I am afraid that there is not enough room for all the tables in all directions.
Hui Xin was in a dilemma. On the one hand, she had Keqing's wishes, and on the other hand, she had previous customs. She was really torn from both ends.
"Never, does that mean it's right?" Ke Qing's will is quite firm, and she is not afraid to express her thoughts in front of outsiders.
"The current Liyue Port is like a magnificent castle on the beach. It is not humans themselves who decide whether the sea will rise or not."
She looked down at the prosperous Liyue Port, her eyes filled with too many emotions, which were worries about the future.
People are accustomed to living under the protection of gods and never take the initiative to think about the future of mankind.
But what if one day, the gods disappear?
By then, can the people who have been crippled by the gods' love and care still be able to build another Liyue Port?
She has always thought a lot and seen far, and she can see Liyue's hidden dangers more clearly than others.
The whole of Liyue relies on the Emperor Yanwang. Once something goes wrong with the Emperor, then the whole of Liyue will have big problems.
It’s just that you have to eat one bite at a time, and the road against the emperor must be taken step by step.
"People make mistakes, so the emperor is always right?" She asked loudly, not afraid that her words would be heard by people with ulterior motives.
Her question not only stopped Huixin, but also Zhongli and Jiang Bai.
Do gods make mistakes?
Jiang Bai has never seen it, doesn’t understand it, and doesn’t know it.
But Zhongli knew.
Gods are not omniscient and omnipotent, and there is no doubt that gods can make mistakes.
He sighed softly, "No one is always right, including gods."
"At the beginning of the Immortal Invitation Ceremony, government affairs were actually placed on the table. However, as the government affairs became more and more numerous, and Emperor Yanwang rarely read them, the government affairs slowly disappeared on the table... ..”
With Zhongli's guidance, Huixin was immediately liberated from the dilemma.
"I will go back and sort out the events of this year, and try to sort them out before the ceremony of inviting immortals begins."
It's the emperor's business whether they want to see it or not, and whether they let it go or not is a matter of their attitude.
Keqing nodded, walked to the fence of Yiyan Palace, looked down at Liyue Harbor below and whispered to herself.
"The emperor has protected Liyue for a thousand years, but will it be the same in the next thousand years, ten thousand years, or one hundred thousand years?"
Her voice wasn't loud, but it was enough for Zhongli to hear.
A meaningful smile appeared on Zhongli's face.
"Mr. Zhongli, what are you laughing at?" Jiang Bai looked at him with a confused look on his face, not knowing why.
He became a spectator along the way and didn't understand it at all.
He felt that Yuheng Xing Keqing had a lot of opinions about the Rock King Emperor. Could it be that Zhongli felt that he had found an alliance, so he smiled so meaningfully?
Anyway, if you want to rebel, you can rebel on your own, just don't get involved with him and the hall master...
"It's nothing, I thought of something happy." Zhongli chuckled and turned to leave.
It is indeed a joy to have such people in Liyue Port.
Only the existence of such people would make him seriously consider whether to hand over Liyue Port to them.
