Unlike the world without immortals that she had traveled to, there was no such thing as "road maintenance" here, and naturally there were no expressways.

In order to save time, Keqing bought a new horse in a small town, and then she and the Thousand Rocks soldiers who were accompanying her sped up and headed for Mondstadt.

evening.

Walking in the afterglow of the setting sun, after passing under the warm orange shade of the giant oak trees, a huge city standing majestically on a mountain in a lake comes into view.

The breeze brushed my cheeks, the neighing horses lowered their heads to nibble on the grass, and oak leaves fell on the back of my hands.

Looking at the city that was cast into amber by the setting sun, Keqing breathed a sigh of relief.

"finally reached."

Without any rest, she picked up the reins and drove the horse forward.

Two figures rushed towards Mondstadt and soon arrived in front of a bridge.

This is the only way to enter Mondstadt.

However, just as they stepped onto the bridge, their way was blocked by a group of pigeons.

In front of them, there was a little yellow-haired boy standing in the middle of the bridge feeding pigeons, just blocking their way.

Upon seeing this, the accompanying Qianyan soldier immediately rode his horse forward two steps and shouted at the child.

"Hey! That little brat, get out of the way."

"Who are you calling a brat?" The yellow-haired little boy turned around and glared at him angrily: "Do you know who I am?"

"Who?" Qianyanbing rolled his eyes. "The King of Mondstadt? The illegitimate son of the Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius? Or the Fatui Executor?"

Please collect and recommend. There will be another update in the afternoon. Usually there are two or three updates a day.

Section 3 3. Why are you wearing Qin’s clothes?

The more you say it, the more outrageous it becomes.

Qianyanbing, who was able to quarrel with a little brat, looked anxious.

that's the truth.

"Alright, alright, get out of the way. If you get hurt by the horse, don't blame me for not warning you."

His mind was now filled with thoughts of saving his own head and rushing into the city to treat Lord Yuheng. Of course, he didn't have the patience to argue with a little brat.

"Are you threatening me?!"

"So what?"

"Don't go too far, Liyue people!" said the little boy angrily.

Then he stretched out his hand, pointed at the Qianyan soldier, and closed his eyes.

Keqing on horseback looked towards him with interest.

"Uh-huh--!"

The little boy looked like he was going to do something. His cheeks puffed out, his face turned red, and he hummed for a long time.

Available in the next second.

With a bang, a fist as big as a sandbag landed on his head.

"Little Timmy, how many times have I told you not to feed pigeons on the bridge!" said an older man wearing the armor of the Knights of Favonius, rubbing the little boy's head.

Then, she lifted the little boy with one hand, touched her head with the other, and said to Keqing with a wry smile, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please forgive me, sir."

"That's how the brat is. Many people have reported him to the Knights for blocking their way."

"Many people have reported it, yet it's still not being dealt with?" Keqing asked.

This kind of inefficiency is worthy of being a free city-state.

"Well, that can't be said. The kid is not just feeding the pigeons on the bridge. He is just waiting for one of his relatives. Ah, forget it, I won't say anything. My Lord, please go into the city. It's getting dark."

The children playing on the bridge were just an interlude and did not delay Keqing for too long.

After handing the horse to the approaching Knight of Favonius, Keqing looked up at the city gate.

"Lord Yuheng, shall we go?" Qianyan Soldier on the other side also spoke.

"Don't you think it's a bit strange?" Keqing asked.

"Strange?" Qianyan Bing looked up at the city gate. Lord Yuheng, do you mean that there are mushrooms growing on the city gate?

If this is indeed strange in Liyue, then the gatekeeper must be punished.

But this is Mondstadt. Lord Yuheng, doesn't he know that this is the nature of the people of Mondstadt?

Of course, what’s strange about Keqing isn’t the mushrooms.

She is one of the seven stars, and this trip is also at the official national visit level.

Not only was there no welcoming ceremony for the host, but the people who arrived earlier on our side also didn't come out to greet us.

A child can be said to be ignorant, but the fact that these Knights of Favonius took a long time to tie up their horses is very telling.

The people from Mond seemed to be stalling for time, asking her to enter the city as late as possible.

But Liyue is not Mondstadt's enemy, and she is not a monster, so why would she do this?

After thinking for a moment, he shook his head and stopped worrying about it.

Keqing said nothing more and walked forward into the city.

there is always a solution to a problem.

She had been to more dangerous and bizarre places, so the brightly lit Mondstadt certainly didn't give her much to worry about.

The sun has set, but Mondstadt is even more dazzling.

The street lights and the chatting and joking passers-by complement each other, and the hawkers' cries and the clinking of wine glasses mix together, creating a lively scene.

He had only taken two steps when several Knights of Favonius came up to him.

"Lord Keqing, welcome to Mondstadt. Please forgive us for not having a welcoming ceremony. The Knights Templar are really short of manpower recently." The leading Knight of Favonius saluted and said to Keqing apologetically.

“It doesn’t matter.” Keqing shook her head, then said, “Take me to the Knights.”

"what!"

"What's wrong?" Keqing was a little confused looking at the surprised knight.

Is this a surprising request?

"Well, I suggest that Lady Keqing take a rest for a night and talk about it tomorrow. After all, it's not easy for you to come all the way here..." suggested the Knight of Favonius.

"Sir, what they said makes sense. Why don't you go and have a rest?" Qian Yanbing also agreed. It just so happened that he could go find a doctor in the same field to quickly check the sir's condition.

But Keqing shook her head.

"Take me with you. I have something important to discuss with your acting leader."

Seeing that the Knights of Favonius didn't respond, Keqing asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything inconvenient?"

When asking the question, he spoke with a tone of superiority and the pressure of a swordsman.

Sure enough, these knights who were only responsible for logistics panicked for a moment, and the leader nodded.

"Okay, okay."

Under the curious gazes of passers-by on the road, Keqing asked the Thousand Rocks soldiers to meet up with the large force that had arrived earlier, and went to the headquarters of the Knights Templar alone.

Qianyanbing seemed to have something to say, but was interrupted by Keqing's series of instructions such as counting items and checking on colleagues, and he forgot about it for a moment.

Walk through the central square with a beautiful fountain and go up the steps.

Keqing soon arrived at the door of the Knights' headquarters, where a dark-skinned Knight of Favonius with an eyepatch was waiting for her.

"Uh, we, Lord Kaia...sorry..."

"I heard that Ms. Margaret's cat is missing again. You should go and help." The knight said to them with a smile.

Then he looked at Keqing.

He performed a standard salute and said respectfully, "Captain of the Knights of Favonius, Kaia, on behalf of the Knights of Favonius and all the free people of Mondstadt, I welcome you."

"Seven Stars of Liyue, Lady Keqing of Yuheng Star."

Keqing nodded, and then said, "We encountered a thunderstorm on the way, which delayed us a bit. Sorry."

"It's okay, it's okay." Kaia smiled and waved his hand, then personally opened the door of the Knights' headquarters, stretched out his hand inside, and bowed to invite people in.

"Lady Keqing, please come in. Captain Qin is working in her office."

"Well, thank you."

After saying thank you, Keqing walked into the headquarters of the Knights Templar.

Then I saw many knights in logistics knight uniforms walking back and forth between the first and second floors, all with serious and busy expressions on their faces.

The first few Knights of Favonius who came to greet them did not lie. The Knights of Favonius were indeed short of manpower.

"You are Lady Keqing, right?!" At this moment, a delicate voice sounded in my ears.

Keqing turned her head and saw a silver-haired girl in a red and white maid outfit. Her voice was gentle and delicate, and her pupils were as clear as wine, reflecting Keqing's face.

"You are……"

The girl lifted her skirt and bowed her head.

"Noelle, the maid of the Knights of Favonius."

"Uh…hello."

Keqing had not systematically learned the etiquette of Mondstadt, so she didn't know how to respond and could only say "hello".

"Your Excellency, there is no need to be so polite." Noelle said with a smile, "Please follow me. The captain's office is over here."

Following a maid named Noelle, Keqing walked through the crowd and arrived at the door of the captain's office.

"I'll be waiting outside the door. If you have any requests, please call me." Noel said seriously.

Keqing nodded, then reached out and knocked on the brown wooden door.

"ah!"

Suddenly a strange sound was heard from inside, but it disappeared immediately.

Just when Keqing was wondering, a response came from inside the door again.

"come in."

This time, the voice was steady and calm, and Keqing was very familiar with it.

It came from the acting head of the group.

Keqing gently pushed the door open and walked into the office, and Noel immediately closed the door behind her.

This was not the first time Keqing came to the office of the leader of the Knights of Favonius, but the last time was two years ago.

After all, Liyue has seven stars, and she can't be the one to represent Liyue on diplomatic visits every year.

However, the layout of the office is no different from two years ago. Apart from books, there are office documents and some ordinary plant decorations. It is simple and clear.

The acting leader of the Knights of Favonius was still reviewing documents on his desk when they met, just like he had been two years ago.

However, Keqing frowned slightly, looked at the beautiful girl working hard at the paperwork, and asked.

"Why...are you wearing Qin's clothes?"

Chapter 4. I regret it

"Ah..." Captain Qin looked a little stiff for some reason.
