Genshin Impact: Zhongli discovered that he was stealing tributes at the beginning

Paimon asked: "Is this the end?"

Nieyue nodded and said: "The extremely ominous and ominous aura has indeed faded away."

Then he continued to explain.

"The effectiveness of the Hundred-No-Forbidden Barrier is not permanent. Bashi listened to Osel's call but was pushed to the bottom of the sea by Qun Yu Pavilion. Osel was seriously injured and was frozen in the deep sea by Shen He."

"Later, the immortals and I will set up a large formation to suppress them back to Guyun Pavilion. I think these two demon gods will not be able to cause trouble again in the future."

Ningguang gave a serious salute to the immortals, and said with a smile: "Thank you all the immortals for your help. If you hadn't happened to be here, the future of Liyue Port would be difficult to predict..."

Liu Yun didn't wait for Ning Guang to finish, he snorted coldly and interrupted: "Why take the opportunity to flatter us? Besides, we didn't happen to be here - our purpose of coming, do you want to pretend to have forgotten it in the blink of an eye?"

Facing Liu Yun's words, Ning Guang pursed her lips and remained silent.

At this time, Grandma Ping came over.

"Liu Yun, there is no need to be so tit-for-tat..."

While Grandma Ping was talking, Wu Ye, who had been pretending to be dizzy, opened his eyes, then slowly got up, put his index finger between his lips, and signaled Kong, Gan Yu and others who noticed him not to speak, and then he followed the thieves Still turning his back to Grandma Ping, he sneaked away.

Grandma Ping didn't seem to notice what was happening behind her. She told the immortals about the origin of Qunyu Pavilion.

"I once heard that when Ningguang first started to learn how to do business, she had already started to use her very limited income to prepare the Qunyu Pavilion project."

"At first it was only the size of a room, but with constant expansion, it is now a palace of this size..."

"This is her spiritual support as a businessman and Qixing, and it is also a reflection of her life."

"The destruction of the Jade Pavilion for Liyue is of great significance to her. I think that such a level of cooperation and sacrifice can at least be exchanged for a word of appreciation."

However, Ningguang loudly denied it at this time: "No! At this time, it should be said that 'it can at least be used as a bargaining chip in negotiations', which is what I want."

Grandma Ping smiled helplessly: "......Ha."

Ningguang nodded and thanked: "Thank you so much for being willing to say a few words for me. In fact, we are very clear about the intentions of all the immortals today... but please forgive us for not being able to make concessions."

Xieyue's tone became indifferent: "Oh?"

Ning Guang did not flinch, and his voice was sonorous and powerful.

"Three thousand and seven hundred years...According to records, it has been more than three thousand and seven hundred years since the immortals signed a contract with the emperor to protect Liyue."

"To this day, Liyue's landscape and land are as stable as a rock, and are the same as they were thousands of years ago. This is an amazing achievement."

Ning Guang paused for a moment, looked straight at Xieyue, and pointed at Liyue Port behind everyone.

"But this does not mean that Liyue is still the Liyue of 3,700 years ago. Please don't just cast your protective eyes on this land - please also take a closer look at this city and every person here. People."

Zai Yue narrowed her eyes, and Ning Guang thought that the other party was about to get angry, but in the end, Zai Yue just smiled.

"I know you have prepared a lot of words, and the true Lord of Gechenlang City will also help you speak. And the person standing behind you is the instructor named "Fengyan" Qianyanjun, right."

Feng Yan was stunned for a moment. He really didn't expect that the Xian family would recognize him, so he had to step forward and bow.

"Fellow immortals, I apologize for not being able to perform the full ritual because I have my armor on me. I thought..."

"Stop, I know what you are going to say." Ni Yue stopped Feng Yan from continuing, but looked at the two seven-star representatives Ning Guang and Ke Qing seriously, "We, the Immortal Family, can actually agree to let Liyue Port be ruled by humans. From now on We will not get involved in Liyue's big or small problems, except when we encounter a disaster like today, the immortal family will help."

Keqing understood the meaning of Cutting the Moon instantly, "Zhenjun Cutting the Moon and Zhuyang, if you have any conditions, just say it. If it is reasonable, we Qixing will definitely agree."

"I'm worried that after I wait for the immortal to leave, the Seven Stars of Liyue may cover the sky with one hand and harm the people."

Xieyue didn't give Keqing a chance to refute, he continued talking.

"I know that the current Qixing may not do so, but can you guarantee that the future Qixing will abide by their true intentions and serve the people of Liyue? I think there are many pests in the Qianyan Army now."

"Of course, I'm not talking about Fengyan and you group of brave warriors, but as the coach of Qianyan Army, you should know your own affairs."

Feng Yan remained silent. He understood that in recent years, some Qianyan soldiers had done evil because of their status or connections with senior officials in Liyue. Therefore, even if they wanted to punish these erring soldiers, they could only turn a blind eye. The eyes are pretentious.

"Then the power of supervision can be given to the people of Liyue. The people's eyes are sharp and they can supervise it personally. I think this is a good way."

Xieyue sneered at Ningguang and said: "Ha, let the people of Liyue supervise it, that sounds nice. Don't think that we immortals are not aware of the hidden dangers that exist in Liyue Port now that we are immortals?"

"If nothing else, let's just say that the way your Seven Stars hold office is still an election system, where people are appointed based on their merit. What if it becomes a hereditary system in the future?!"

"In other words, the system of seven stars co-managing Liyue has disappeared, and Liyue has become someone's sole proprietor, just like the emperor was in charge alone before. But can this person be as unselfish as the emperor and wholeheartedly benefit the people of Liyue? !”

"Besides, as long as people have power, they will easily lead to corruption, and having absolute power will lead to absolute corruption."

"If you Seven Stars have absolute power, it means that you are prone to abuse of power, corruption and embezzlement, making the distribution of economic resources unfair, concentrating wealth in the hands of a few people, and depriving the Liyue people of fair opportunities and development. Benefit."

"Seven Stars can exercise power based on their own will for personal interests or the interests of private groups. They can also abuse their power, corrupt public resources, and obtain illegal benefits through bribery, embezzlement of public funds, power rent-seeking, etc., thus causing economic development to be hindered and Social inequality increases.”

"In this case, people from different classes in Liyue society will have problems such as resource and information asymmetry, interference from public opinion and interests, and conflicts of interests that are difficult to reconcile, which will greatly affect the supervisory power of the Liyue people."

"You may say that you promise not to do this, but what about the next Seven Stars, the next Seven Stars, and the people who hold high-level officials at a later stage? Can you Seven Stars guarantee the future?"

Faced with Xieyue's questioning, Ningguang and Keqing were speechless.

"so--"

Xieyue paused for a moment, looked around calmly, and noticed the shocked expressions of the people around him.

He smiled, remembering that when Wu Ye talked to him about the analysis of the nature of human society, he also showed this look. It seems that this is the effect of successful pretense. Well, this feeling is simply not too good!

"So there must be someone who is deeply recognized by the immortals to assume the position of supervising the Seven Stars."

At this point, Ningguang already knew the immortals' ultimate goal. She and Keqing looked at each other and saw each other nodded.

She took a deep breath and raised her smile, "So, you immortals already have a candidate, so you might as well just say it."

......

Wu Ye, who had just sneaked away, had already arrived at the north gate of Liyue Port. He was still a little uneasy, and then looked back.

With his excellent eyesight, he could clearly see the Cutting Moon, Li Shui, Liu Yun, Gan Yu and Mandrill flying towards the sea. They should be setting up a large formation to completely suppress Osel and Bashi.

"Wait! Where is Ping'er?"
