Chapter 73 72-Try
"She seems to want to invite you very much." Walnut blinked, "Does this count as a big win for me?"

"The person that even Qixing wanted to invite has now taken the initiative to join the Hall of Rebirth."

Jiang Qing nodded in agreement, "Teacher, you are right. Wangsheng Hall has gained a great advantage."

He rubbed his thumb and index finger slightly, looking serious, "Teacher, since I am so capable, do you want to give me some reward?"

"No!" Hu Tao raised her eyebrows slightly, with a bit of a sly smile, "I have taught you everything that the Wangsheng Hall can give you. It's you who can't learn it yourself."

"Yes, yes, I am really incompetent." Jiang Qing did not deny it.

Not to mention that he has fully grown up at his age, even if he started learning from a young age, Jiang Qing didn't think he could surpass Hu Tao.

Most of the time, hard work is just a way to validate talent.

Jiang Qing was not so pessimistic.

His efforts were really not at the level of working hard, such as burning the roof of a tree or getting up at the sound of the cock-crow.

Even if his talent is limited, he is definitely far from realizing his talent now, and he is not qualified to say that he is limited by his talent.

What kind of talent limitation is there... How can so many people reach the pinnacle of their talent? Most people don't even know what talent they have in their entire life, let alone pessimistically believe that they have already touched the pinnacle of their talent.

But for humans, Teyvat is indeed an environment where even if you make efforts, you may not necessarily get anything in return.

What's more, since you haven't paid much, it will be even more difficult to get any rewards.

"Hey, why do you always say that you are incompetent?" Hu Tao held her chin with both hands, "I don't think you are such an inferior person."

"Hey, teacher, that's not right." Jiang Qing said with a smile, "I said I was incompetent to find an excuse for my failure, but when others say I'm incompetent, it's a provocation and contempt."

Jiang Qing╮(╯▽╰)╭, "Some people out there really do say they are incompetent in advance, just to find a good excuse for the troubles that come later."

Jiang Qing didn't care about face. Once he felt he couldn't hold on any longer, he would naturally withdraw.

Walnut sighed, his brows and eyes drooping.

She hasn't been going out recently, and is waiting for Qixing's arrangements.

No matter how they discussed it, the Emperor's [Immortal Ancestor Transformation] must be handed over to the Wangsheng Hall for processing.

But when it will be delivered is an uncertain time.

In fact, until now, the Seven Stars have not acknowledged the death of the Emperor.

Although everyone had some guesses, since Qixing didn't say anything, they all pretended to be ignorant.

Liyue is in turmoil today.

The storm of the old man's hasty retirement finally showed its influence.

······
"Do you feel like we've seen this scene before?"

After returning home, Jiang Qing met Eula, who looked a little anxious.

She pressed Jiang Qing down on the chair, her expression serious. "It seems that when we were in Mondstadt, the whole situation suddenly deteriorated, and the development of things was no longer under anyone's control."

"Obviously, Mond had no problems at all before this."

Girl, you have discovered the blind spot, be careful that it may be treated as a bug and fixed.

Jiang Qing looked innocent, "What are you saying? I don't understand."

"Exactly. Don't you think Morax's death is strange?" She said anxiously. "I was just about to settle down. I came to Liyue because of the secret agreement, but I also valued the prosperity and stability of Liyue."

"As a result, I just dealt with the final matter here, and Morax died?"

Eula was distressed.

She was not a Liyue person, so she did not feel any grief over the death of the God of Rock.

She felt that her life was worth mourning.

They had just spent a large sum of money, with the help of Jiang Qing's betrayal and the relationship with the Wangsheng Hall, to resettle Lawrence's descendants. They were planning to start over and try to revive Liyue... and then Morax died.

died?

Where is the stability and prosperity of Liyue?

I just arrived and the God of Rock died right after?

Not only did He die, but He also left behind a huge mess to clean up - could you at least choose a suitable successor?

Eula was anxious.

"I don't have a second chance to make mistakes, and Lawrence doesn't have such an opportunity either." She stared at Jiang Qing with a burning gaze, "What do you think I should do?"

The reason why Eula panicked was that she no longer had any chance of failure.

The last forced choice almost cost Lawrence’s entire fortune, and now, everything Lawrence has is in her hands.

If she failed again, it would really be the end of Lawrence.

"Trust Liyue." Jiang Qing hesitated for a moment, but chose to be honest.

Anyway, Eula was not bad to him.

"it is good."

Eula let out a sigh of relief.

She seemed really relaxed, slumped down in the chair, her body softly leaning against the back, feeling relieved.

"You trust me so much." Jiang Qing teased softly.

"Of course I believe you." Eula said as a matter of course, "Since Mondstadt, you have done everything you promised me."

Especially the transaction with Keqing.

The secret agreement was thrown into her hands, and Eula knew very well what she could do with it.

It is absolutely impossible to do the same as Jiang Qing, who went through many twists and turns and achieved a better goal in an alternative way.

Jiang Qing was speechless.

What you promised must be done.

The most important thing in making a small investment to achieve great success is not talent but reputation.

A reputation that works well, a reputation that most people can trust.

But this is not quite right. After all, if he guesses wrong, he will not be trusted.

Is this also considered a kind of talent?
"What are you thinking about?" Eula asked softly.

She has been worried about this matter for a long time.

But Jiang Qing was also very busy before that.

Eula has always known Jiang Qing's desire for power.

If he didn't want this power, there was no need for him to accept his swordsmanship teachings, nor was there any need for him to establish a relationship with the Wangsheng Hall.

Because she knew this, Eula didn't want to disturb Jiang Qing at this time.

"Thinking about how to connect with Keqing is like entering Jean's sight in Mondstadt."

Jiang Qing said casually, "If nothing unexpected happens, the next seven stars should be led by this Yuheng Star."

There is no distinction of power among the Seven Stars; they are responsible for different areas.

But where there are people, there will definitely be disputes, and disputes will determine who is better.

Jiang Qing didn’t know what Keqing’s reputation was among the Seven Stars before, but he felt that Keqing was now qualified to be the leader of the Seven Stars.

"Because she was the one who first brought up Morax's death."

Of course, Eula is not stupid.

She was sitting opposite Keqing during the conversation that day and had some understanding of the Yuheng Star's ideas.

"In the past, such proposals would have been too stupid and unintelligent."

"But now, this kind of outstanding foresight is more suitable than any other person."

Eula shook her head again, "That's not right. Qixing might also intend to push her to the top."

Jiang Qing did not respond.

Liyue's rule tends to be based on divine right. At the same time, because gods really exist, the God of Rock himself holds a large part of the power.

He didn't need to talk about these powers, and in the past, if anyone in the Seven Stars needed them, they could apply to Ganyu for the scepter as long as the reasons were right, and then they could pretend to have the scepter.

But now the Emperor is gone.

Now that this power has become vacant, it is natural that it must be divided up.

Keqing should be the first ninja to bring this up.

This is in line with her past proposals.

If Keqing took her proposal seriously, then she must have considered how the people of Liyue should deal with these things once the Emperor died.

It is no exaggeration to say that Keqing must also know what Jiang Qing knows, and she may even know it better than Jiang Qing.

Because Jiang Qing only had a few months to think about it, and Keqing had the position of Seven Stars, many people were willing to serve her, and she had proposed this idea for several years.

If she had put in a little more thought, she would have been able to prepare better than Jiang Qing.

But this is just a hypothesis after all, and the conditions do not allow her to really predict the death of the emperor.
The reason why Keqing is able to take the position now is because the Seven Stars really need it and are really coveting this power.

Keqing came first, and if they lose, she will be the only one to bear the consequences.

There is no conspiracy or calculation.

Those who dare to be the first in the world can gain fame and power, but they must also bear corresponding risks and responsibilities.

There aren't too many conspiracies in this world.

When people are in Keqing's position, the possibility of exchanging interests is far greater than conspiracy.

"So you chose Keqing instead of Ningguang." Eula rubbed her cheeks, looking relaxed.

Among the seven stars, Ningguang's reputation is quite outstanding.

Because this person's life is quite legendary, starting from scratch and now standing at the position of Seven Stars, he is indeed worthy of being admired by the people of Liyue.

"You think too highly of me." Jiang Qing shook his head. "It's not that I want to choose Keqing, but given the current situation, I can only get in touch with Keqing."

"Originally, Keqing was the only one who tried to contact me."

Eula said lazily, "That doesn't mean that your current situation is worse than Mond's time."

"At least Mond was in prison at the time, and Jean wanted to use you for a simple inspection."

"Liyue is different. This country looks dangerous, but it doesn't seem that dangerous."

Even Eula noticed it.

If the dragon disaster involved the life and death of Mond, then the dispute between the immortals and a group of people led by the Seven Stars was nothing more than a minor issue.

At worst, everyone can just raise their hands and give power to the immortal.

They cannot tolerate the exchange of interests and will naturally give up their positions again.

It would be better if they could endure and learn.

A group of immortals who will not be corrupted by interests and have long lifespans serve as the top leaders. Even if there are any problems, they will be solved hundreds of years later.

The immortal is indeed worth dealing with, but it is definitely not a big deal that will subvert Liyue.

So Keqing still has a lot of time to try.
