The woman's voice was cold and noble, but it sounded a bit familiar.

Zhongli and Yelan turned their heads following the voice, and saw Yu Hengxing in a dark blue dress stepping onto the floating platform where they were.

The clothes on Keqing's body are light and magnificent. The necklace on her neck matches the ribbon on her wrist. The thin black silk on her legs is embroidered with light golden star and moon patterns, but she is holding a cold-light single hand. He held his sword in his hand, frowned, and looked at the people sneaking into the casting workshop with a worried expression.

Ye Lan couldn't help but clicked her tongue, secretly thinking that it was too bad, she didn't feel the fluctuation of elemental power when Ke Qing appeared just now. She thought that the other party must have been teleported in from other entrances and exits.

Although I don’t know whether Ningguang informed Ke Qing that she and Traveler and others would sneak into the Golden House to investigate the specific situation of Yinyuan Hall’s god-making plan, but with Ye Lan’s identity and position, she could not get along with a figure like Yu Hengxing in the Golden House. See, it's a bit strange.

After all, Ye Lan's work was only responsible for Ning Guang, and she did not have to follow anyone else's orders, especially since she was discussing with Zhong Li just now the possibility of Yu Heng Xing's family participating in the rebellion.

At this moment, the traveler had just grabbed Paimeng from the pile of molas, and was about to go over to meet Yelan. Unexpectedly, Paimon, who was holding his small pocket, saw Keqing walking slowly, and waved to him from a distance: " Miss Keqing, we are here!"

Yingmei took advantage of the moment when Paimon raised his hand, grabbed the little mascot's legs, turned it upside down and shook it vigorously.

Mora embryos kept falling out of Paimon's collar and hitting the ground with a crisp sound. It was only after he was sure that the little mascot was no longer hiding any Mora that did not belong to him that the traveler released his hands.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Ye Lan already said these are not Maura, so what if I take some..."

Paimon protested aggrievedly to the traveler, but the traveler naturally ignored little Paimon's quibbles, pinched the other person's soft face with a serious expression, and climbed onto the stone platform where Yelan and Zhongli stood: "It doesn't belong to you. Don’t take anything!”

At this moment, Yelan frowned and nodded towards the arriving travelers, rapidly weighing the pros and cons and the current situation. Keqing also did not speak, staring at Yelan who was supposed to belong to the same camp.

When she arrived, she seemed to have heard Ye Lan's doubts about the Yuheng family's position. Although she was a little unhappy, she was more surprised and confused.

Keqing was born into a prominent family, and many of her family members were high-ranking officials. They also controlled many of Liyue's lifeline industries. From this, she could also stand at a higher level and see the consequences for the people of Liyue after the Yan King Emperor came to power. Influence in all aspects.

The poor will hope that the emperor's policies will help them turn around, officials hope that the emperor's new policies will not affect their rights, and businessmen will make a fortune through the policies.

The family with the backing of previous Yuhengxings is one of the leaders, but based on Keqing's understanding of her three relatives, although they have the greed of businessmen, they are not hopeless fools.

Why did he become a target of suspicion when he came to Ye Lan?
"I didn't expect to meet Lord Yu Heng by chance in a place like this. It seems like tonight is a good day for a walk."

Ye Lan was the first to break the silence. She took two steps forward calmly, blocking Zhongli and the traveler behind her. "It will affect Yuhengxing's work, but I received a tip saying that there will be people here tonight. Unlawful assembly activities..."

Yelan knew that Keqing's mission was to lead troops to surround all the entrances and exits of the Golden House, but now this Yuhengxing appeared alone in the casting workshop, which was really a bit suspicious.

Keqing's face was cold and she interrupted Yelan's story.

"Yelan, it's time to change your informant."

"Although the banquet on the third floor of the Golden House has not been reported to the General Affairs Department, it is only a small-scale charity dinner to celebrate the victory. Even if there are traitors secretly causing trouble, the Yuheng family's movements have been reported to the Yuehai Pavilion's secretariat in advance. If you don’t believe it, you can go to the secretariat to confirm.”

Sure enough, Keqing heard her conversation with Zhongli.

Yelan sighed secretly in her heart, warning herself not to talk about the mission in public so easily, and thinking quickly in her mind about how to respond. "Of course I believe what Mr. Yu Hengxing said, but I also want to remind you that whether you are hosting or participating, acting in the Golden House without authorization violates the common agreement of the Seven Stars and Eight Gates of Liyue. What's more, Yuehai Pavilion now exists in name only. Report... …It’s just a formality.”

The power of that war lord is even greater than that of the Jue Yun Immortals. The location where the gun blade fell is still a wasteland and ruins, and even the Yuehai Pavilion's many years of archives and records were destroyed. Gan Yu and many resurrected offices Personnel are still working day and night to restore damaged important files and adapt to the new government execution and communication system.

Small matters such as event reporting will not even be brought to Gan Yu himself. Yue Haiting's secretary can approve it on his own, and no one can say whether any of these secretaries are members of the Yinyuan Hall or the Yuheng family. clear.

Contracts build bonds between people and also weave an intricate information network of aristocratic families.

"...Ye Lan, if Gan Yu hears what you said, she will probably be disappointed for a long time."

Keqing sighed, then crossed her arms, and answered confidently and neatly: "The golden house in the Seven Stars and Eight Gates Agreement does not include the third floor. The places involving the production, transportation, and storage of Mora are protected areas. The third floor was originally a sample exhibition area, specially used to receive guests from other countries.”

"Since it is not classified, there is no need to limit its use. Wouldn't it be good to earn more funds for the Golden House reconstruction project?"

After hearing Keqing's answer, Yelan was already confident and pointed with her chin to the corridor with golden water flowing in the distance.

"So, these two Molla production lines, which are obviously operating illegally, must have the operating permission of the Secretariat?"

Yu Hengxing was slightly absent-minded, and then he came to his senses and asked with slight confusion: "Didn't you start these two Molla production lines without authorization?"

Yelan looked at Keqing calmly, silently considering the possibility of the other party pretending to be stupid.

But from the perspective of the traveler, Ye Lan was speechless by Ke Qing and was unable to reply, and she remained silent with a guilty conscience.

Paimeng pushed the traveler with her little hand in confusion, but hesitated to speak. She didn't understand why everyone suddenly became suspicious of each other despite being partners in the same camp.

Ke Qing is an upright and upright person. Although she comes from a wealthy family, she hardly has the bad qualities of a wealthy child. She can even be said to be the most conscientious person among the current Seven Stars. Ye Lan knows that she will never be like her, so Deep down in my heart I still have some respect for this Yu Heng star.

But the problem is that although the behavior and attitude Keqing has shown over the years are enough to prove that she is a rare anthropocentrist in Liyue, this is inconsistent with the overall stance of the Yuheng family.

Ye Lan wasn't sure whether this was Keqing's true point of view, or whether her family needed a puppet who could hold such a point of view.

After all, Liyue's family members have received similar education since childhood. Personal preferences and self-will are trivial matters that do not need to be considered in the face of family interests.

The Liyue Family is a living entity formed by the union of countless such clan members. The division of labor is different based on the individual's bloodline, ability, and power. Since the family can fulfill anyone, it can also abandon anyone at any time.

Suppose that Ke Qing just happened to be assigned to play the role of Yu Hengxing.

Will she be the mastermind of this incident?If Keqing is told in detail about the Yuheng family's investigation, will she choose to maximize the family's interests and weigh Liyue's future and personal interests on the scales?

Yelan and Keqing were far from familiar enough to be honest. Faced with the possible consequences of making the wrong choice, Yelan rarely hesitated. (End of chapter)
