I shouldn't have any grudge against this god of Liyue, right? Why is she looking at me like that?
In short, once inside, Ying and Paimon were already waiting for them.
However, the two of them had already started eating. Ying was doing alright, just taking small bites of snacks and drinking tea.
As for Paimon, he turned into a lazy bum and started showing off his food, which made Yingdu feel a little embarrassed.
Jiang Ning couldn't help but ask, "How long have you been starving? Haven't we been giving you special meals in the Dust Song Pot lately?"
Ying whispered, "There's nothing I can do, that's just how Paimon is... he'll make up a reason to eat even if there isn't one..."
Today the weather is nice, a good day for eating; today the weather is bad, um, my mood is also bad... At times like these, you should eat something to relieve your bad mood!
And so on.
Ayaka Kamisato smiled and said, "It's alright, we're all friends, eat as much as you like."
Paimon said with a grin, "Hehe, Ayaka, you're so good to me!"
Ying said irritably, "Yes, yes, I haven't been nice to you."
Paimon quickly and ingratiatingly offered the delicious food to Ying's lips: "Traveler, you're the best to me too."
Ying opened her mouth wide and ate the food, then looked at Ayaka Kamisato and asked:
"Ayaka, where is the Divine Child? She sent us, and now we're just missing her."
"What? The little one misses me? So reluctant to part with me? You're already asking about me?"
The goddess's teasing voice rang out, and a pink figure appeared in the room.
"No, no, no, I wasn't thinking about you!"
Ying looked at Yae no Miko as if she had some kind of psychological trauma, her face turning green.
Jiang Ning asked, "No, what did you do to Ying? Why is this guy so afraid of you?"
Yae no Miko looked completely innocent: "I didn't do anything, did I? You agree, right, Ying?"
Sensing the subtle threat in Yae no Miko's words, Ying quickly nodded: "Yes, yes, that's not true."
Yae no Miko then looked at Jiang Ning: "Look, she herself said so."
Jiang Ning sighed: "Fine..."
I think this girl is just terrified of being struck by lightning by you.
"Well then, everyone's here. Relax a bit. This is a family dinner, and everyone here is a friend. Feel free to eat, drink, and chat as you please."
Ayato Kamisato's gentle voice rang out, and Ayaka Kamisato smiled and nodded in agreement.
However, Yae no Miko didn't give Ayato any face and said:
"Alright, you little brat from the Society, just say what you want to say. Didn't we already discuss this before? Save your breath for these insincere pleasantries... You used to cry easily when you were little, but now that you're all grown up, you're completely oblivious."
Ayato's eye twitched, but he had no way to refute his boss, the company's magistrate, so he could only say:
"Since you've put it that way... then I'll get straight to the point. I've invited you all here today to discuss something."
"The Fools' Clan has become too close to the Commissioner of the Imperial Household and the Commissioner of the Heavenly Realm, to the point of treason. We have made some arrangements and preparations, but we need your cooperation... Of course, the Traveler has also spent a lot of energy on recent matters, and I thank you for that."
"Now, all the evidence is complete, and Lord Kuji has given his approval..."
Ayato Kamisato's peaceful smile now held a hint of sharpness:
"Now that everything is ready, it is time to report to the emperor and remove the corrupt officials from the court."
Jiang Ning and Ke Qing were somewhat confused. They felt that the other women had done a lot of things, but what did it have to do with them?
Keqing frowned and said, "Please wait a moment, head of the Kamisato family. This is an internal matter for your Inazuma family... Ying is a free agent, so it's fine if she helps you, but what does this have to do with Liyue?"
Ayato Kamisato said, "Since Miss Hotaru was brought from your country, I think it's necessary to inform your side about this matter..."
"Alright, you just want to drag him down with you, don't you? He's not stupid, and besides, you don't know him. Let me handle this."
Yae no Miko interrupted Ayato Kamisato, then said to Jiang Ning, "After this is done, Inazuma will strengthen the relationship with Liyue and reduce the normal tax rate on Liyue to 10% during the next five years of trade... Is that acceptable?"
Jiang Ning thought for a moment and said, "I don't think that will work, because your Inazuma owes me a great debt of gratitude."
Jiang Ning seemed to be implying something, and even the lightning in his sea of consciousness could only smile helplessly.
Yae no Miko clearly hadn't considered this point, and simply said, "That's true... but if it's about a closer relationship, that's not something I can decide. It depends on whether you can persuade that blockhead."
Jiang Ning smiled and said, "Then it's a deal. Don't worry, I can't persuade Lei Yingdian, but... I have someone here who can."
Just as Jiang Ning was about to reveal the answer, another announcement came from outside the door.
"Master, General Kujo has arrived."
167. The lady has died yet again.
"Kujo Sara?"
Jiang Ning was taken aback. Why was she here?
Jiang Ning then looked at the Eightfold Divine Child: "You summoned him?"
Yae no Miko said with a smile, "Oh dear, how could such an interesting thing as purging the court of corrupt officials be complete without that little tengu?"
Ayato Kamisato also said gently, "General Kujo is a very important part of our plan, and we have also made an appointment with General Kujo to show him the evidence we have collected today."
Jiang Ning looked at Ying, who whispered, "So, when I was reporting the situation to Yae no Kami, I happened to run into Sango no Kokoro, and then I was run into Kujo Sara..."
"The priestess then revealed the truth that the Kujo family had colluded with the fools, betrayed Inazuma, and deceived the shogun."
"Of course, Admiral Kujo didn't believe it, so he gave us a few days to gather evidence. Today is the last day..."
Jiang Ning nodded slightly: "Understood."
A short while later, a capable and tall figure walked in. Kujo Sara had a serious expression on her face, seemingly unsurprised by the people present. Moreover, it was clear that her expression was somewhat unpleasant.
Yae no Miko sensed something: "It seems you already have some answers?"
"It seems I've also investigated a bit?"
Kujo Sara said, "Yes, but I still don't believe that Father would betray Inazuma."
After all, that man had taught her since childhood to be absolutely loyal to the general and to Inazuma.
Yae no Miko said, "It's no use if you don't believe me. Hey, Kamisato, where's the evidence you've collected? Show it to me."
With a smile, Ayato Kamisato took out a scroll from his wide sleeve and handed it to Sara Kujo.
"This is evidence taken from Kujo Takayuki's study: Kujo Takayuki's notes and the Kujo family's official seal. You should recognize them, right?"
Kujo Sara took the document.
The more I looked at it, the worse my complexion became.
He even began to waver, his body, which had been as straight as a spear, began to sway.
"How could this be... Father... No, it can't be, it's impossible! I have to go ask Father!"
Kujo Sara's eyes reddened, and her whole demeanor seemed off. She turned and left immediately.
Each and every item in these letters is a betrayal of Inazuma.
That would be enough to bring the Kujo family to their doom many times over.
They abducted Inazuma's children and sold them to the Fools, and they also used Inazuma's property to sell to the Fools for their own enrichment, thus exploiting the people.
They even deceived their superiors and subordinates, misled the general, incited the rebel army, and used information asymmetry to make the general implement the "Eye Hunt Order" and the "Isolation Order"...
And so on, the sheer number of inhuman acts committed is simply countless.
Looking at Kujo Sara, who was already somewhat possessed, Yae no Miko sighed and said:
"Sigh, Ying, you should come with us. We'll meet at the castle tower."
Ying hesitated for a moment, but nodded nonetheless. She was a little worried about Kujo Sara in this state.
After Ying followed him out, looking at the composed Jiang Ning, Yae no Miko was somewhat puzzled:
"Aren't you worried at all? Ying is about to face General Thunder."
Jiang Ning sipped his tea leisurely: "What are you worried about? Tell me, who is Lei Yingdian most afraid of?"
Yae no Miko said, "As for Shadow, why would he be afraid of anyone? That's impossible."
"Aren't you afraid of lightning?"
Jiang Ning said.
Yae no Miko's face darkened, but she still said, "If it's Lord Shin, then Kage must be afraid... After all, Kage never contradicts what Lord Shin says, after all, Kage is just a simple-minded idiot."
Jiang Ning said, "That solves it. Since there are people who are afraid, it makes things much easier."
"What do you mean?" Yae no Miko was somewhat bewildered by Jiang Ning's words.
Jiang Ning grinned: "Sister Liya, would you like to come out and meet Inazuma's priest?"
As she spoke, Heureya slowly emerged. She hadn't originally planned to show herself, but now that the lightning had truly revived, the plan had to be slightly altered.
We need to give the village girl from Inazuma a little bit of Liyue's shock.
“Hello, Yae no Miko, I am Heulia, or rather... the Salt Goddess of the Salt of the Earth.”
Heureia said with a warm smile.
"Heureia... the salt of the earth... and the salt goddess... wait?!"
Yae no Kamiko's expression changed drastically. Although she was not very clear about the specific historical details of Liyue, this Salt God was still recorded in Liyue's history.
Isn't this the salt that fell to earth?
It's no exaggeration that this soul carries the aura of demonic power.
So, did the Salt God really come back to life?
Jiang Ning just mentioned what Master Zhen meant...
Yae no Miko's heart began to pound wildly.
Before, in front of the Divine Cherry Tree... it seemed like the Divine Cherry Tree was acting strangely, could it have been around that time?
Yae no Miko stared intently at Jiang Ning, her expression a mixture of disbelief, fear, and anticipation.
