Chapter 445 Waiting for the Torment
Chapter 445 Waiting for the Torment
Keqing snorted coldly, which scared Kamisato Ayaka and the other three.
Who made them the ones who were wrong? Who made them the ones who were weak?
At this time, there is no other way except to admit defeat and accept your fate.
So Kamisato Ayaka, along with Kuki Shinobu and Hayate, knelt on the ground and apologized to Keqing:
"I'm so sorry! Lord Yuhengxing! All this is our Inazuma's fault!"
Looking at the three girls who all got up and sat down in front of her, Keqing felt somewhat reluctant.
On the one hand, she could see that no matter what, these three girls were good girls, not bad people.
On the other hand...
The people of Liyue kneel to heaven, to earth, to their parents, to their ancestors, and to the Emperor, and they will not kneel to anyone else.
Therefore, they seldom perform such a great ceremony, as they are proud and willing to respect others in their bones.
Today, Keqing suddenly faced the Inazuma people and their extremely humble attitude. Keqing felt a little uncomfortable.
Shaking her head helplessly, Keqing motioned for them to get up:
"Don't kneel anymore, stand up and talk."
After looking at each other for a few seconds, Kamisato Ayaka, Kuki Shinobu and Hayateu carefully climbed up and sat back in their original seats.
But when they sat back down, their postures were a little stiff and they couldn't help but feel nervous.
Looking at the three trembling people, Keqing sighed inwardly:
"Have you killed all those Inazuma people who came to our Liyue to draw maps and have ulterior motives towards us?"
Kamisato Ayaka immediately replied:
"We've killed all those we've detected and recorded in our intelligence records!"
The implication is that if there are deeper hidden things that we haven't discovered, then there's nothing we can do about it.
Keqing nodded and did not force it. She continued to ask:
"Were these people sent by your Inazuma shogunate's Tenryo Bugyo and Kanjo Bugyo? Are they the only two involved?"
Kamisato Ayaka nodded slightly:
“Indeed, they are the only two companies involved.”
When she said this, she couldn't help but make a slight defense:
"I know this incident is extremely serious and has caused disputes and conflicts between the two countries.
However, I still want to emphasize it.
These things were only planned by the Kujo family and the Hiiragi family. They acted on their own, and it was not our Inazuma's intention!
If I'm not mistaken, the general has been deceived by them! I hope Liyue can understand this!"
Keqing's expression was still somewhat unfriendly:
"Don't worry about that. We will investigate the matter thoroughly.
But I didn't expect that Lord Gou Chen Xing was involved in this. It was Lord Gou Chen Xing's order to ask you to come here to apologize.
When it comes to Lord Gou Chenxing, things are not that simple, and I can't handle it alone.
You three, come with me to the Qun Yu Pavilion to meet Ningguang.
These matters require us, the Seven Stars of Liyue, to discuss together."
Keqing's reaction was not particularly unexpected to Kamisato Ayaka, and she also knew that this matter was not something Keqing could handle alone.
But... I have to go to the Jade Pavilion to meet Ningguang...
Thinking of the reputation of Tianquanxing, especially recalling that her brother once admired this Tianquanxing very much in private, Kamisato Ayaka felt very nervous.
I'm afraid he's a very difficult person to deal with.
Next, the matter will be handed over to Tianquanxing. Who knows how it will develop?
But no matter how it develops, the three of them cannot control it.
Now we are at the mercy of others, and the three of them are on Liyue's territory, and are in the wrong and weak.
No matter what happens, they are at the mercy of others.
Maintaining this sad and helpless state of mind, Kamisato Ayaka, Kuki Shinobu and Hayate, under the leadership of Keqing, left the General Affairs Department and hurried to the Qun Yu Pavilion late at night.
When heading there, Keqing also sent a message to Tianshu and Ganyu in advance, asking them to go to the Qun Yu Pavilion together.
Soon, all the important figures gathered in the Qun Yu Pavilion.
With the Inazuma trio behind her, facing Ningguang, Tianshu and Ganyu in front of her, Keqing seriously explained the whole story and the process.
Since many of the inside stories were relayed by her, some details were sometimes inevitably unclear.
At this time, Kamisato Ayaka is needed to help supplement, and Kamisato Ayaka is very respectful every time she speaks.
Just like that, everything that needed to be made clear was made clear, and everyone present understood what was going on.
After hearing this, there was silence inside the Qun Yu Pavilion.
Ningguang nodded in thought, Tianshu's face was solemn, Ganyu frowned, and everyone was silent for a while.
They are quiet as they please.
But this kind of silence is simply a torture for Kamisato Ayaka and the others!
Are you going to kill me or slaughter me?! At least give me a clear answer! At worst, we can just accept our fate!
Just keeping silent like this, leaving us alone and torturing us slowly, is so painful!
At least say something! At least show some attitude!
Kamisato Ayaka was extremely anxious, but she was so weak and helpless that she didn't dare to say anything at this time. She could only huddle aside with Kuki Shinobu and Hayateu, trying to reduce her presence as much as possible.
Ugh……
When had she, the dignified Princess Bai Lu, ever been so humble? When had she ever been so pathetic?
It’s all the fault of those idiots from the Kujo and Hiiragi families!
If I can return to Inazuma safely this time, I will never let go of these two families!
The silence lasted for several minutes.
After a few minutes of silence, Ningguang finally spoke:
“I didn’t expect it to be like this…
During this period, my intelligence network also showed some abnormalities.
These anomalies indicate that a group of Daozu people have indeed sneaked into Liyue and seem to be making some small moves in our Liyue.
I didn't expect the so-called little tricks to be like this...
What I didn't expect was that before my intelligence network could even finish its investigation, those people had already been wiped out by the three of you.
Ok……
This matter involves Lord Gou Chen and the relationship between the two countries, so it is not a simple one.
Miss Kamisato, please wait here for a moment. We need to discuss the next steps."
Looking at the polite Ningguang, Shenli Ayaka felt somewhat relieved. She was surprised that Tianquanxing's attitude was actually quite kind.
"Okay, please, we'll wait here."
Next, Ningguang, Tianshu, Keqing, and Ganyu looked at each other, and the four of them went to the conference room next door and started a secret discussion.
Kamisato Ayaka, Kuki Shinobu and Hayateu on this side can only continue to suffer and wait.
While waiting, the three of them couldn't help but talk to each other in low voices, and couldn't help but worry about the current situation.
The first to speak was Zaoyou:
“Um, Miss Kamisato, Sister Kuki Shinobu.
There is a saying in Liyue that when two countries are at war, envoys should not be killed.
We... can be considered envoys, right?"
