The shogunate officials attached great importance to the first court meeting after Fang Yun and Ying's return. They started making preparations after receiving the notice from the Root Organization ninja last night, and now everyone is in place with one hour left before the meeting.
But precisely because they arrived too early, the excited shogunate officials were unwilling to stand there stupidly, and they gathered in groups of two or three to discuss the possible topics that might arise at this meeting.
"Qinglai Island has been purified by His Highness Fang Yun. I heard that Kujo Sara has led the shogunate army to clear all the monsters on Qinglai Island. He just returned yesterday... With such a great contribution, will the Kujo family rise again?"
"How is that possible! Those people in the Kujo family who did not participate in the treason have been demoted to commoners by His Highness Fang Yun. It is impossible for them to serve as Tenryo Bugyo again. But the Takagi family may have some opportunities."
"I don't think it's going to happen. The Yingsi family didn't make much contribution, but there might be changes on the side of the community magistrate. The construction of Qinglai Island will be in charge of the community magistrate. And I heard that His Highness Fang Yun even met the eldest daughter of the Kamisato family in private."
"Could it be that Princess Bai Lu... The head of the Kamisato family has good vision. I heard that he used to often practice swordsmanship with His Highness Fang Yun and gave him his own sword. Now Princess Bai Lu and His Highness Fang Yun have a close relationship. The Kamisato family can rest easy."
The officials formed small groups, discussing in low voices in twos and threes, so that Kamisato Ayato could not hear, but the envy in their eyes could not be concealed.
Ayato Kamisato, who was standing in the front of the queue, could probably guess what they were talking about, and his face looked a little strange. Everyone thought that this was his investment, but who knew the truth was that Ayato's clever plan brought peace to the world, but he lost his sister and his soldiers?
He wished he could enter the palace in his sister's place!
At the same time, some officials also talked about diplomatic changes, and there was new news coming from overseas this morning.
"Have you heard? Xumi's Little Auspicious Grass King actually announced that His Highness Fang Yun is Xumi's General Lan, and even revered him as the Father God!"
"Are you kidding me? Let's not talk about how His Highness Fang Yun became the God of Xumi. The mother goddess of the little auspicious grass king is the first ruling Daci tree king. If His Highness Fang Yun became the father god, wouldn't that mean..."
The Great Compassion Tree King was listening outside with great interest. Just as he was about to follow Fang Yun out of the passage, he saw the cold and beautiful purple-haired lady waiting in front of everyone.
Lei Dianying slowly turned around and looked at the Great Compassion Tree King with narrowed eyes: "Buyer, how do you want to explain this matter?"
Volume 3: Chapter 44: The face-to-face confrontation between the Great Compassion Tree King and Shadow, the battle for the Great Wife!
"Nani!"
Lei Dianying's majestic voice, which was full of queenly style, awakened the Great Ci Tree King, causing her to exclaim in surprise, without realizing that she had spoken with the accent of Inazuma again.
Before she could figure out when Lei Dianying appeared, she saw him walking towards her step by step with a bad look on his face.
The Great Ci Tree King's eyes immediately fell on the new sword on Lei Dianying's waist... The sword body was very long, with purple and black colors interwoven, and the hilt was engraved with mysterious black and red patterns. As she moved, the whole weapon released a trace of purple lightning with a breath of destruction.
Without Ying's introduction, the Great Compassion Tree King also knew that this was the new sword she had forged for Fang Yun - the Seven Thunders of Purification!
However, this scene reminded King Daijishu of the simple and hospitable Inazuma warriors who would shout "Let me try my sword" when they saw strangers, and he himself had obviously become the target of the sword test.
"Wait... I can explain." The Daci Tree King's previous domineering aura immediately slipped away. She didn't expect that Ying would be squatting here to snipe at her.
Originally, she thought that her tower-stealing skills had already reached perfection, so she planned to show up and confront Lei Dianying, and detonate the explosion in front of her to seize the position of the eldest wife. However, after actually encountering the other party, she found that she was overthinking.
In previous battles, she had been killed too many times by Ying and the general. After being captured and released seven times, she no longer had the courage to fight them.
And you have to know that outside the passage is the hall where the evaluation office holds court meetings. If she doesn't face off, won't she be embarrassed later? She, the Xumi God, followed Fang Yun to attend the court meeting to show her status!
Humph, just be tolerant and avoid the spotlight for now!
After stealing the third-generation God of Wisdom Theresa and establishing the Far East Branch of the Church Order Institute, she will slowly confront Lei Dianying... No matter how powerful your Meiyi is, don't you have to call my Theresa the principal?
The Great Compassionate Tree King comforted himself and then gave Ying a brief introduction of what happened in Xumi.
"Oh?" Lei Dianying looked up with interest. "So many things happened in Xumi. But it seems that Nashida should have completely controlled the House of Lords, right? Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to suddenly issue such an announcement that could cause domestic unrest... Humph, the recognition of a father god is the first time in Teyvat's history, and it also makes Fang Yun the god of your Xumi."
She didn't think much of Nashida's public acknowledgement of "Uncle Fang", the key point was that this would affect the outside world's judgment of Fang Yun's identity.
Is Fang Yun the God of Sumeru or the Goddess of Inazuma?
The Great Compassion Tree King understood Ying's thoughts and explained, "Sumeru is Inazuma's most steadfast ally. Nashida's declaration of Zun Fangyun as the Father God may seem a bit sudden, but in fact it is also to express this point... If the relationship between the two countries is inseparable, then being the god of two countries at the same time is nothing, and it will not cause unrest."
Lei Dianying's gaze stayed on her for a while, and after a long time he snorted softly.
If it were in the past, she would definitely not let the other party go so easily. However, when Fang Yun and she return from the next mission, the structure of the seven countries of Teyvat may not exist anymore, and the fusion of Sumi and Inazuma is not impossible. Nashida's announcement actually has the effect of a preventive measure.
"Hehe, besides, Ying, didn't you agree before? I want to borrow Fang Yun temporarily to deal with the problem of Xumi, but I didn't expect that he could handle it so well." The Great Compassion Tree King found another reason to explain.
After she finished speaking, the Great Compassion Tree King couldn't help but secretly praise herself for her wit. This was something Ying had promised her personally, and if she used this excuse to confront her, Ying would have nothing to say.
Baalzebub, don't think I'm really afraid of you! We are all bronze, do you think you can win?
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Fang Yun didn't want to take sides with either side so he had to look towards Huzai Palace, only to find that this guy's fox ears stood up alertly, then he frowned and protected the Eightfold Son of God in front of him.
?
The purple eyes of Yae Shinko, who was eating melon, widened slightly. He did not expect Kitsai Palace to have such a reaction.
No, why are you withdrawing? You haven't even refined it yet.
Only then did she realize that Kitsaigong's true level might not even be as good as hers.
This made Yae Shinko smile with joy. She had already thought about how to deal with Kitsai Palace in the future. She wanted to see Kitsai Palace calling him a small fry, but being transformed by a Dharma-Ending-level beast of burden to the point where he couldn't extricate himself.
As for Yingmei and Paimeng, Ying only wants to be a concubine, so she is not worried about being targeted. Paimeng doesn't care even more, because no matter how powerful the beasts of burden are, they can't defeat her.
Paimon is not affected!
On the other side, Ying frowned slightly. She was indeed choked by the Great Compassion Tree King, but if she could not suppress the other party's arrogance at this time, the Great Compassion Tree King might covet the position of the eldest wife again in the future.
and so--
"Please, other me!"
"Yes, yes, yes." The general shook his head helplessly and went on the stage again skillfully.
However, the Great Ci Tree King noticed that the expression of the purple-haired queen in front of him froze, and then her temperament became a little more silly than the original queen.
Is it the general?
She immediately felt as if she was facing a formidable enemy, but the general did not give her a chance and asked directly, "Hey, Buyer, I'm afraid you didn't intend to pay it back at that time, right?"
"How is that possible!" The Great Compassionate Tree King laughed as if nothing had happened, trying to cover up the truth of "Buyer borrowed Fang Yun". She really didn't think about returning it at the beginning, she just wanted Fang Yun to settle down in Xumi.
But the general didn't say anything, he just looked at her expressionlessly, his eyes seemed to say "If you threaten the position of the eldest wife, even if it's a sister or a friend, I will not forgive you!"
The Great Compassionate Tree King felt under great pressure and was a little overwhelmed.
Fortunately, the general quickly looked away, allowing her to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Since you said so, then I believe it." The general calmly revealed the matter, then nodded to Fang Yun and others nearby, and then walked towards the hall outside the passage.
When the Great Compassionate Tree King saw that she did not torture her, he couldn't help but feel a little more grateful.
The general seemed to be able to sense her thoughts, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly. He used both kindness and force, which was the skill that a lady should have.
Of course, such an effect was also due to the fact that she had tortured the Great Compassion Tree King by using the "discussing wives over wine" incident when they first met.
At that time, the general felt that the Great Compassion Tree King was almost frightened by the sound of thunder and dropped his chopsticks.
Ying in the Pure Land was shocked. She knew that the general would be able to subdue the Great Compassionate Tree King, but she didn't expect it to be so easy.
General, God forever!
Although it is a bit unreasonable that she, as the elder sister, needs to rely on her younger sister to gain points, but since they share the account, it doesn't matter who gains points!
The general had the same idea, and if she wanted to subdue the Judgment-level beast of burden, she also needed Ying's help. Last time, she felt that Fang Yun was almost unable to hold on.
When Ying's consciousness is able to temporarily separate from his physical body and act, the two of them will definitely be able to capture Fang Yun!
As she was thinking this, she and Ying completed the switch again, intending to let Ying go to the meeting.
But after Ying came online, he found that Fang Yun behind him had a calm expression, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Why didn't you react to such big news? Someone will definitely talk about this at the meeting later."
"What's the big deal? Although it is unprecedented for Teyvat to be the god of two countries at the same time, as long as Inazuma and Sumi have a close relationship, everyone will be able to accept it." Fang Yun really didn't know why he was worried.
How simple it is, in Inazuma he is the Inazuma God, in Sumeru he is the Sumeru God!
"But why did you and the general suddenly appear here? There's no rush to look at the sword later, right?"
"Indeed, there is no rush. The general and I are only here to attend the court meeting."
"what?"
"What? We can't join yet?"
Fang Yun raised his eyebrows and said, "I didn't say that. There are two thrones up there, but you guys never came."
"We don't understand. Aren't we being tortured here?" Ying rolled his eyes at him. "As for now... the Three Privy Council system is about to become history. We have to come and take a look at such a big thing."
Of course, in addition to this, there is also the factor of the Great Compassionate Tree King.
There are only two thrones in the hall. If the Great Compassion Tree King followed Fang Yun to the scene, he would definitely sit on the other throne. Wouldn't it be awkward for me if I didn't show up?
The general had reminded her that she must not create any world-famous paintings like "Mei in the World Snake".
This is called anti-Gank awareness!
As they were speaking, everyone had already walked out of the corridor and arrived at the main hall under the gaze of the shogunate officials.
Seeing so many people suddenly walk out of the inner hall, all the officials of the shogunate looked at each other in shock.
They knew Fang Yun's style of doing things. If he saw that everyone was present, he would probably start the meeting early, but they didn't expect that he would bring so many people into the hall this time.
While they were shocked, the two fox fairy palace officials, Kitsusai Palace and Yae Shinko, walked to the front, while Ying was a little behind. Behind them was a team of officials divided according to the three magistrates.
Of course, the two magistrates had been dismissed at this time, and the positions at the front were vacant. Although Kujo Sara had returned from Qinglai Island with great merit, he could only stand in the same row with the Takagi family, who were once subordinates of the Kujo family. Only the queue on the side of the magistrate was the same as usual.
This was exactly the reason why all the officials of the shogunate envied Kamisato Ayato. Now that the Kamisato family was the only remaining magistrate family, and with a large number of projects to be built on the two islands, the Kamisato family's momentum and status had undoubtedly reached its peak.
Only Kamisato Ayato smiled bitterly in his heart, as his front tooth tower was of no use at all.
But what can he do? The base has already run away by itself, and it won't be long before the enemy heroes are produced again.
He could only comfort himself in his heart...my Kamisato family has a successor!
What? Should the last name be Fang? That's also the bloodline of my Kamisato family!
Fang Yun glanced at his brother-in-law who had a resentful look in his eyes, and shook his head secretly in his heart.
Kong can prove that he was quite nice to his brother-in-law... Although he had used up all the money on Kong's medical insurance card, that was just an isolated case!
Afterwards, Fang Yun's gaze fell on Kujo Sara among the officials. She was different from the other officials. When everyone was whispering before, she was the only one standing there with a serious expression. Only when he and Ying entered the room did she react, and her gaze stayed on the two of them respectfully.
But the next second, all that was left in Kujo Sara's eyes was shock.
No, it wasn't just her. All the officials of the shogunate present widened their eyes and looked at Fang Yun in disbelief.
He, the general, and the Great Compassion Tree King had not yet sat down. In front of everyone's surprised gaze, Fang Yun introduced: "I believe everyone has more or less heard the news from Xumi. The first ruling Great Compassion Tree King of Xumi has been resurrected and returned."
Everyone looked at the white-haired lady standing side by side with Fang Yun and the general, and couldn't help but hold their breath, guessing the other party's identity.
"Yes, she is the Great Compassion Tree King." Fang Yun nodded, and at the same time gestured for the Great Compassion Tree King to sit on another throne.
As soon as the words fell, they caused an immediate sensation.
Just now everyone was exchanging information with each other and discussing how Fang Yun suddenly became the Sumeru God, but now Fang Yun has directly brought the Great Compassion Tree King here.
and--
He even let the other party sit on the throne next to Fang Yun.
Da Me, that is the seat reserved for the general!
The officials of the shogunate looked at each other, and their expressions suddenly became excited.
Since Fang Yun ascended the throne, Inazuma's situation has improved at a visible speed. The historical problem of Kaigi Island has been completely resolved, and great achievements have been made in the economy and diplomacy. Not only has the downward trend been swept away, but there is also a tendency to become the leader of the allied countries. Their impression of Fang Yun is no longer that of a disciple of a god, but that of a new Thunder General who can truly stand on his own.
It was precisely for this reason that they were extremely indignant when they heard today that Xumi had announced that Fang Yun was the Xumi God.
Even if the little auspicious grass king recognizes Fang Yun as his father god, isn't this still stealing their Inazuma's god?
In Teyvat, gods are the most important foundation. The people of Inagaki feel very safe now because of the two gods, Fang Yun and General Lei Dian, who are in charge. But now their home is about to be robbed?
They had long heard that the desert people were good at stealing. They said that the God of Wisdom should be the name of the Red King. The rainforest was also created by the Red King. They almost said that Teyvat was a desert. But they didn't expect that the rainforest people were also so good at stealing that they even stole His Highness Fang Yun.
When the officials of the shogunate were discussing previously, many of them decided to make suggestions and severely strike a blow to Xumi's arrogance. However, they did not expect that Fang Yun was actually related to Xumi and seemed willing to share Inazuma's power with the other party.
When I looked at the general again, I saw that she was lost in thought, just like in any other meeting. Her eyes seemed to contain the vast starry sky and a large number of mathematical formulas.
It seems that the general does not realize the seriousness of the problem!
"Your Highness Fang Yun, please think twice!" An elderly official stepped forward and knelt down with tears streaming down his face.
Jiujo Sala also stepped forward immediately. How could she sit back and watch the God of Xumi take the position of the general? She, Jiujo Sala, only increased the explosive damage of the general!
Many officials echoed this and also knelt down to urge Fang Yun to think twice.
Fang Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He put his arm around Ying and sat down on his throne.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Although I have authority in Xumi, I am still the Prince of Mingshen of Inazuma... King Daicishu was invited by me to participate in the court meeting in another identity." Fang Yun said calmly.
Despite his explanation, the officials were still worried.
