Original God, but the real world

Chapter 153 152-You can take it yourself
There was one thing that made Kamisato Ayato regret a little.

As one of the three magistrates, the decline of the shrine magistrate over the years is real.

Even though this had nothing to do with him, after all, when he took over this position, the Kamisato family was already in a precarious state.

The fact that the Shabugyo was weaker than the Kanjobugyo and Tenryobugyo had nothing to do with him.

But things have come to this point. As the new club magistrate, Kamisato Ayato still has a heart to restore the family's prestige.

Given the situation, the only way to surpass Kujo Takayuki and Hiiragi Shinsuke is to wait, wait for the day when the world is in chaos and you can fish in troubled waters.

Or wait until the two of them give way to the next generation, and the next generation's talents are not as good as theirs.

When people fall behind, there is really no other way.

You can only accumulate strength on your side and wait for your opponent to make a mistake.

What if the opponent doesn’t make mistakes?
We have to wait, wait for the day when chaos emerges and we can take advantage of the situation.

Jiang Qing has tried many times to make a small profit with a big investment, and finally today he has come to the defeat of Kujo Takayuki.

But his ability to make a small investment to achieve great success was indeed due to the help of Yin and the fools.

One of these two parties creates trouble, and the other solves it.

Jiang Qing knew that the trouble would be solved, and he also knew when the trouble would appear and in what state it would appear, so he could take the initiative at every step, and even if he was weak, he could win many times.

If Kamisato Ayato wants to defeat Kujo Takayuki, she also needs such a situation.

Unfortunately, all the troubles that Inazuma had before were actually caused by Kujo Takayuki himself.

It is too difficult to outwit your opponent in his chess game.

As for waiting for Kujo Takayuki to make a mistake...that's what we waited for.

Not long ago, Kujo Takayuki was close to being finished.

The rebels defeated the shogunate army under his direct command, and then entered the castle tower, gaining the favor of the shogun.

At that time, Kamisato Ayato thought that Kujo Takayuki was doomed to die.

It is precisely because everyone knows that Kujo Takayuki is finished that Kamisato Aya is not in a hurry to help.

He was worried about the Kujo family's final counterattack.

What if Kujo Takayuki is just waiting for the first person to stand up and then take that person down with him? Then all the planning for so long would be just making things easier for others, which would be a waste of time.

He was waiting for someone to step forward, not rushing to add insult to injury, and wanted Kujo Takayuki to reopen as soon as possible.

This is not just what Kamisato Ayato is thinking.

Everyone was waiting for a fool to charge in and draw the firepower of the Kujo family, so that they could sit back and watch what happened and take advantage of the situation.

As a rebel from Kaijima, you must be full of hatred towards Kujo Takayuki, right?

Go for it!

Whether he was killed or killed Kujo Takayuki, it meant that someone had fired the first shot and the outcome had been decided.

That's the problem.

That bastard from the resistance didn't do anything.

Not only did he not take action, he even reached a cooperation with Kujo Takayuki in order to gain greater benefits.

The precarious Kujo family suddenly stabilized.

The biggest problem of the Kujo family is that they were completely defeated in the war with the resistance army.

This means that Kujo Takayuki was seriously derelict in his duty.

But now the rebels and Kujo Takayuki have formed an alliance, and the problem of dereliction of duty still exists, but no one has filed a complaint.

It is impossible for the rest of the Inazuma dignitaries to rush forward at this time.

They didn't think of rushing forward when they were at their weakest, and now that the other party has taken a breath, they have even less intention to do so.

"If there was one person who didn't feel that victory was certain, and let the damned enemy die earlier, the Kujo family would never have been able to turn things around."

They all felt they had a sure win and wanted to preserve their strength.

As a result, because I didn't hit him hard enough, the other person got up.

"This has nothing to do with the decision of the patriarch." Thomas explained, "No matter what, the hatred between Kaijima and Kujo Takayuki still exists."

"Thomas, the person who is in charge of the audience with the general is a Liyue person." Kamisato Ayato said calmly, "He and Kujo Takayuki may not have a deep hatred."

"What's more, he has suppressed his hatred and chosen to cooperate with Kujo Takayuki."

Can't hatred be eased?
This is not necessarily the case.

"It is impossible for Jiang Qing to obtain the highest power of the resistance army. The resistance army relies on Haizhi Island, and the people of Haizhi Island naturally trust the Coral Palace lineage more."

Kamisato Ayato raised his head, his eyes deep: "This means that the bargaining chips that the resistance can offer are limited."

Anyway, no matter how Jiang Qing rises to the top, he can never get to the heart of the Coral Palace.

That has been the business of the Coral Palace for hundreds of years.

Just like the three magistrates of the shogunate, they naturally belong to these three families.

The biggest bargaining chip that the rebels can offer is nothing more than the position second only to the one person. Can they still give the Heart Sea of ​​Coral Palace to others?
Since the rebels have limited bargaining chips, why can't Jiang Qing plan something for his own personal future?

He already held a high position in the shogunate, even though this was only a temporary test from the shogun.

But if he does a good job, the general will not care about his so-called Liyue identity, power, wealth and status, and will certainly not be stingy.

"If this man values ​​power, I'm afraid this is indeed his best chance."

The girl sitting opposite Kamisato Ayato whispered, "After Inazuma closed off the country, although the power cannot be extended to the outside world, if you can win the general's trust, you will be able to become an uncrowned king in Inazuma."

As the leader of the Knights of Favonius, Jean's power is definitely not limited to Mondstadt alone.

In any country, people will inevitably bow down to her because of her identity.

Because there is a country behind her, and she can really drive this country to start a war.

Mondstadt is weak now, but Falgar is just on an expedition. He is not dead and can come back when needed.

Moreover, the God of Wind still occupies a high position as a deity. Having a god is the greatest confidence.

Once the war came, it was difficult for the God of Wind to do anything. Falga led the elite knights around him back to Mondstadt, and Mondstadt's strength began to rise again.

As for the three magistrates of Inazuma, their power can only flow within Inazuma.

This is what happens when the country is closed. They don't take people from outside seriously, and others don't have to worry about their power.

Even so, the Three Magistrates have always been the uncrowned kings of the country of Inazuma.

But Jiang Qing's arrival seemed to imply that he would be ranked above the three officials.

The one who is above the three virtues is the true king.

Looking across the seven countries, such opportunities are rare in the world.

Jiang Qing may not be able to withstand such temptation.

Power... Kujo Takayuki promoted the war and cooperated with the Fatui.

As for Jiang Qing's current situation, he only needs to give up his identity as a rebel.

"Indeed." Kamisato Ayato nodded slightly. "This is a great situation. The origin of the rebels is nothing."

"What's more, judging by the way he acts, the resistance is probably just a stepping stone for him."

Kamisato Ayaka looked calm.

She had never had any contact with Jiang Qing, but going to the front line to persuade Kujo Sara was indeed a collaboration between the two parties.

Ganyu followed Ningguang's plan and chose to cooperate with Shefengxing.

The Seven Stars had no choice. Both Tianling Bugxing and Kanding Bugxing chose the Fatui. Ningguang's plan this time was to cause trouble for the Fatui.

So Ganyu could only go to find Shefengxing.

The result can be said to be very successful, and Kujo Takayuki almost died.

Without the support and protection of Kujo Takayuki, and with the fall of Hiiragi Shinsuke, his brother Kamisato Ayato would naturally be able to take advantage of the situation and rise to power.

Among the three new magistrates, the one with the most power and prestige is naturally Kamisato Ayato.

Kamisato Ayato will not cooperate with the Fatui, and at this point, everyone's goal has been achieved.

The Seven Stars thwarted the Fatui's conspiracy and taught the Fatui a lesson after the Liyue Harbor incident.

Kamisato Ayato won the chaos, restored the honor of the Kamisato family, and became the head of the three magistrates.

This is a cooperation where both parties get what they need and gain something.

Unfortunately, at the most critical moment, another key figure in the plan, Jiang Qing, who was supposed to cooperate with the company to completely wipe out Kujo Takayuki, turned against them.

Wasn't this person arranged by the Seven Stars? It was said that in order to ensure the stability of the situation, the immortal from Liyue even went to Bayun Island to observe the war and prevent the Fatui's executive officers from directly killing people.

How can he still cooperate with the Fatui!
The immortal chose only such a partner?
Ying, who was sitting on the other side, casually stuffed the cake in her hand into Paimon's mouth to prevent her from saying anything.

By now, she is indeed the core figure of the small group of the Social Affairs Bureau.

But Ying had no interest.

The only reason she stayed here was because of the plan arranged by Yae Shinko.

To be entrusted by others is to be loyal to others.

Although she had no use for the Heart of God, she had to admit its value.

As for the power struggle among the three commissioners, that is quite boring.

She didn't think her partners were vulgar, but she had no interest in getting involved.

The conflict between the three magistrates, even without considering the struggle for power, the issue of Kujo Takayuki's priority also needs to be resolved.

He did take action against the society, but the fact that he failed doesn't mean that there is no hatred among them.

It is perfectly normal for Kamisato Ayato to want to fight back.

But Jiang Qing?

Is it the Jiang Qing that I know?

The girl held her chin with both hands, looking lazy.

During this period of time at the Narukami Taisha Shrine, I was really worn out by it and lost my temper.

But Ying did not urge the Eightfold Divine Son.

When facing an opponent like General Lei Dian, the more thorough the preparations, the better.

She really wanted to explain her reasons to General Lei Dian, but if the cost was too high, she didn't want to confront General Lei Dian head-on right now.

At another time, when she has lit up enough elemental power, she can also win.

There is no need to pay too much for it.

Ying is not alone. She has to take Paimon into consideration and also consider Sora who is waiting for her.

"Jiang Qing?" Paimeng swallowed the cake, "I seem to have heard this name somewhere..."

Ying sighed.

No cake or delicacy can stop Paimeng's mouth.

Can't you tell? Jiang Qing seems to be a rival to his partners.

Ke Ying didn't have a bad impression of Jiang Qing, especially since the other party was recognized by Zhongli.

When it comes to personal character, she trusts Jiang Qing more.

These partners can be considered to have good character, but after all, they have too many concerns, and sometimes they have to give up something for the sake of the family and the future.

An individual can be trusted, but an entire interest group is not worth trusting easily.

"Do you know Jiang Qing?" Thomas asked. "Why don't you tell me about this person?"

Thomas smiled in a friendly manner: "I really want to meet this talented man who was able to manipulate Kujo Takayuki and finally won the recognition of the general."

Thomas always spoke these words.

"I don't know much about this either." Paimon spread his hands, "This person is very strange."

She had almost no contact with Jiang Qing.

Paimon's travel route completely overlapped with Ying's, and Jiang Qing took the initiative to avoid Ying, so Paimon naturally didn't know much.

But even though I don't have contact with it, I still hear about it occasionally.

These words did not involve Ying, so Paimon didn't care at all why Thomas was curious about this.

Since he is curious, I will tell him what I know.

Most of the things were heard from Qixing or Qin. Of course, they rarely mentioned Jiang Qing to Ying.

But a general understanding is enough.

"It is indeed worthy of the Seven Stars' entrustment."

Thomas breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Jiang Qing finally gave up on killing Kujo Takayuki, he could indeed understand why Ningguang and the Immortal would entrust such a task to Jiang Qing.

This person is really good at winning in chaos.

Liyue has no power in Inazuma, and being able to send an immortal is already the best they can do.

If the immortal were to directly interfere in the shogunate's internal affairs, the shogun would not give him any face.

Therefore, although the Seven Stars want to wrestle with the Fatui, the only thing they can do is to build a bridge and arrange some conveniences for the people they choose.

But to be frank, the final result still depends on the ability of the parties involved.

Jiang Qing is indeed suitable.

Kamisato Ayato's expression was somewhat thoughtful.

It is true that one can pull chestnuts out of the fire, and being able to succeed every time is indeed a reflection of one's ability.

But more importantly, this person did not make a wrong step.

He got the information from there, which enabled him to take every critical step at the turning point and never make a mistake.

In this way, the other party's cooperation with Kujo Takayuki is certainly intended to solve the problem as soon as possible and then gain the general's trust.

But in the end, what he wanted might not necessarily be power above the Three Lords.

Maybe a little more greedy.

"So, the conflict between him and Kujo Takayuki is not over yet." Kamisato Ayaka thought, "He doesn't seem like a person who would give up halfway."

"We can see what he chooses next."

"If he still cares about Haizhi Island, he will definitely fight for some rights for Haizhi Island."

As the victor, Jiang Qing temporarily holds a high position. The contribution made by Haizhi Island is worth the return of certain important powers from the other party.

If Jiang Qing returns the power, it means that he will eventually break with Kujo Takayuki.

Hatred between individuals can be eased, but the conflict between Kaijima and the Kujo family is no longer a matter of seeking common ground while reserving differences. This is a blood feud in which one side must fall.

If he abandons Haizhi Island, there will be nothing to say.

That is to say, Haizhi Island is purely a stepping stone, and he doesn't care about any of Haizhi Island's contributions at all.

This guy is a little too cruel.

The Seven Stars had not said before that they had chosen such a person, but just said that at certain moments, if the Society Executive Officer saw an opportunity, they could provide a little help.

Kamisato Ayato agreed because this matter would only benefit him.

Qixing wants to try his hand with Tianling Fengxing. As a person who hopes to win in a chaotic situation, he does not need to rush to the front and only needs to wait for the result, which is of course a good thing.

It turns out that he is really good at doing things, that's true.

This is the person, and he seems to be quite good at it.

"Master of the house," someone knocked gently on the door, "Tenryo Bugyo, Kujo Sara is here to see you."

After accepting Ying, Kamisato Ayato revealed a lot of information to her.

He still trusted Yae Shinko. Since she believed in Ying so much, there was nothing to hide from the Society's Executive Office, so he might as well be more honest.

"Kujo Sara has completely fallen out with Kujo Takayuki. Although he cannot break away from the Kujo surname, he has also embarked on two different paths from the Kujo family."

Kamisato Ayaka took the initiative to stand up and said, "Brother, why don't you let me entertain you for a while."

"Okay." Kamisato Ayato nodded slightly, "She's not idle, so you can have a good chat with her."

Kamisato Ayaka and Kujo Sara had some exchanges, and their relationship became a little friendlier because of the war on the front line.

It would indeed be more appropriate for Kamisato Ayaka to come forward than for him.

"But isn't the person they're looking for the Society Minister?"

Ying also stood up and asked casually.

She was going to leave for now.

Kamisato and Kujo, these two surnames are directly associated with trouble in Ying's eyes.

The communication between these two surnames is even more boring and troublesome.

"I have always been the one to handle matters like this on behalf of my brother." Kamisato Ayaka said calmly, "I don't think the other party would think I am unqualified."

"By the way, Ying should stay and listen as well, right?"

"Perhaps what the other party wants to talk about may be related to the Fatui."

Ying sat down again.

The internal affairs of the Three Magistrates were handed over to the Three Magistrates, but she was very concerned about the Fools recently.

The bad impressions left by the two countries, as well as the Heart of God in her hands, made her very wary of this organization.

The deal between Zhongli and the God of Ice, after all, was based on his trust in the God of Ice.

But it is not just the gods above that can be trusted, the people who carry out the tasks below can also be trusted.

At least in Ying's eyes, neither Tartaglia nor Rosaline is trustworthy.

Because of Zhongli, Ying was able to trust the Ice God, whom she had never met, and his plan to gather the Heart of God.

But her trust only went so far.

If it's news about the Fatui, it's definitely worth listening to.

Worst case scenario, the other party will then hint that he or she has something urgent to do and then leave.

"Take the guest to the reception room." Kamisato Ayaka said in a gentle voice.

Although she had some friendship with Kujo Sara, Kamisato Ayaka didn't think that there was anything among these friendships that would make Kujo Sara come to her on his own initiative.

When you visit, you have something to ask for.

What does she want?
······
Kujo Sara was still recalling Jiang Qing's words.

The Heart of God...the spoils of the Seven Rulings of the Earthly Realm. How dare he covet such a thing?

Although he was alarmed by Jiang Qing's boldness, his commission was not really that troublesome.

It was just a message to convey, and the worst possible scenario that Kujo Sara could think of was being regarded as Jiang Qing's ally.

She felt that she could still hold on to this level of possibility.

"Sorry for the wait, Sara."

In the reception room, Kamisato Ayaka had already warmed up the tea.

"There's no need for that." Kujo Sara glanced at Ying who was sitting next to Kamisato Ayaka.

The person sitting next to the host should be a confidant or something like that.

It's not worth it to make the host's confidant retreat just by passing on a word.

"This is my brother's friend, and also the friend of the priest." Kamisato Ayaka noticed Kujo Sara's presence and explained with a smile, "He is also the most distinguished ally of the Society Bugyo."

"I don't think Sara came here for no reason, did he?"

Use me to show your respect for this person?
Kujo Sara looked calm.

She didn't mind the situation.

Since Kamisato Ayaka insisted, it means that this person is really important to the society's boss.

She wasn't here to cause trouble, so there was no need to dwell on it.

"It's like this, Kujo Takayuki is pushing for the marriage between Kujo Kamaji and Hiiragi Chisato."

"The marriage between the second son of Tenryo Bugyo family and the eldest daughter of Hiiragi..." Kamisato Ayaka's face was gentle, "In that case, I should really tell my brother and prepare some gifts."

"The marriage between the two great magistrates is indeed worthy of my brother's personal appearance."

The second son doesn't have much status.

He will never have the chance to get close to the Three Lords in his life.

Like Kamisato Ayato, there are only a few people who are willing to share power with their younger sister.

Objectively speaking, there is still a gap between Kujo Kamajima and Hiiragi Chisato, but if they were really of equal status, that would be quite troublesome.

Kamisato Ayaka continued to wait for Kujo Sara's next words.

She couldn't have just been delivering a message, could she?

Of course, the Society's Office had already known this news a long time ago.

In the past, no one paid attention to the love story of these two people.

But now the Kujo family is in turmoil, and the love story of Kujo Kamajiro and Hiiragi Chisato instantly became the focus of the final episode.

The two companies had been cooperating before, and if they became in-laws, it would not be good news for the Society's Implementation Office.

"Their engagement is just a lead."

Kujo Sara said calmly, "Someone told me to tell you that he will frame Shinsuke Hiiragi and throw him into jail."

"The combined charges will ensure the complete downfall of Hiiragi Shinsuke."

"And Kujo Takayuki will be left outside."

This is a gift.

Kamisato Ayaka's smile was a little stiff.

The charge was not the key to determining Hiiragi Shinsuke's downfall; the key was whether someone with power above the two magistrates' offices was willing to take action.

Fabricating charges is not ability; being able to prove the charges is power.

The only people who have this kind of power in Inazuma are the general and the chief priest.

It's not Yae God's Son, and it shouldn't be Ming Shen either.

Kamisato Ayaka already knew who sent the gift.

"What does he want?"

The gift was a bit heavy, and Kamisato Ayaka didn't dare to accept it easily.

"He said that the society's policy is to take what one wants, and he will do so regardless of whether he accepts the gift or not."

"He wants to pass on a message to Lord Shebugyo and Lady Yaejinko."

Kujo Sara looked serious, "I want the Heart of God, and Sanbei will visit Narukami Taisha in person."
