"So I ask you to be the guest minister, not any other position. Only the position of guest minister is suitable for you."
Lei Dianshuo was a little silent. He didn't know for a moment whether it was better to refuse or agree.
Then, Ning Guang added another layer of weight, and she said:
"Mr. Shuo, didn't you also serve as an advisor to the Knights when you were in Mondstadt? In Liyue, it is just right for you to be the guest minister of the General Affairs Department."
That's true, but the advisor of the Knights and the guest minister of the General Affairs Department seem to be different things, right?
Lei Dianshuo struggled for a long time and couldn't help but look at Ningguang:
"why me?"
Ningguang replied with a smile:
"Mr. Shuo is knowledgeable and talented. He has just given me a lot of guidance and profound suggestions. Your guidance will help us in Liyue take fewer detours.
We in Liyue have no choice but to repay such kindness.
But Mr. Shuo is the god of thunder, and we Liyue have nothing to repay. We can only repay Mr. Shuo as mere guests.
Of course, I also hope that Mr. Shuo can use his identity as guest guest to give more suggestions to us in Liyue in the future. As one of the Seven Stars of Liyue, I, Ningguang, will definitely listen to me with an open mind. "
Lei Dianshuo was silent again. He really didn't know what to say for a moment.
This Ningguang's idea is almost exactly the same as Qin's idea when she hired herself as a consultant to the Knights.
I just wanted to win over myself, but I couldn't do it directly and blatantly, so I set up this so-called guest minister's identity.
Keqing, as the name suggests, has a respected status, but has no rights. He is a high-ranking person with little authority.
It seems very appropriate to give this kind of position to someone like Lei Ding Shuo. On the one hand, he can hold Lei Ding Shuo up high, and on the other hand, he doesn't have to worry about Lei Ding Shuo easily interfering in Liyue's national affairs.
Thinking of this, Lei Dianshuo couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this Ningguang was really good at calculating, using the position of guest minister, he tied his own god to Liyue's chariot.
Lei Dianshuo, who was speechless in his heart, wanted to refuse a little bit, so he smiled and said:
"I just chatted a few words casually at the wine table. Ningguang felt that the few words I chatted were useful to Liyue, so there was no need to be so serious.
Besides, being knowledgeable and so on... I think that guy Zhongli is more knowledgeable and talented than me. Why don't you hire him as a guest of the General Affairs Department. "
Ning Guang smiled calmly:
"I do have this idea, but unfortunately, Mr. Zhongli is already a guest of the Hall of Rebirth, and there is no way to serve as a guest of the General Affairs Department again.
In fact, if the Palace of Rebirth had not taken a step forward, with Mr. Zhongli's ability, he would not only be a guest of the General Affairs Department, but should be the chief guest of our entire Liyue Seven Stars! "
Lei Dianshuo really couldn't hold it back and complained involuntarily:
"Then you should simply nominate Zhongli as the new Rock King. I believe there is no one more suitable for this position than him."
Ning Guang smiled slightly, and his smile was a little playful:
"Having said that, Mr. Zhongli will definitely be angry if he does this."
Isn't it? After finally retiring, Zhongli was promoted to the top. It's strange that Zhongli wouldn't be angry.
After joking for a while, Ning Guang still did not forget his purpose and continued to look at Lei Dian Shuo and asked:
"Then, Mr. Shuo, would you like to accept the position of guest minister in my Liyue General Affairs Department? Ningguang sincerely invites you."
Lei Dianshuo put down his wine glass and thought about it seriously.
For Raiden Shuo, this matter must be considered carefully, because it is different from being an advisor to the Knights.
When she was invited by Qin to serve as a consultant to the Knights in Mondstadt, Qin didn't know Raiden Shuo's true identity.
What's more, Mondstadt as a whole yearns for freedom, its national policies are relatively unorganized, and the situation in the entire country is relatively simple.
As a consultant to the Knights in Mondstadt, there is not much to worry about. You can just do what you want without thinking too much.
But Liyue is different.
Liyue's overall national strength is stronger than that of Mondstadt, and its national conditions are extremely complex. It is now in an era of change from divine rule to human rule.
In such a complicated and changeable situation, as a foreign god like me, I have to be careful when I serve as the guest minister of Liyue General Affairs Department. It is not like being a consultant in Mondstadt, where I can make a decision with a slap on my head.
Looking seriously at Lei Dianshuo's thinking expression, Ning Guang understood that this was Lei Dianshuo's concerns.
So Ningguang spoke again and took the initiative to relieve Lei Dianshuo's concerns.
"Mr. Shuo, you don't have to think too much, I sincerely ask you to be the guest of the General Affairs Department.
And I can promise you that the position of guest minister is respected and not subject to anyone's jurisdiction.
In order to ensure that the position of guest minister is noble, Liyue Finance will hire you with a high salary. At that time, I will also give a special order that if there is nothing troublesome, no other staff will be allowed to disturb your daily life. "
Ningguang's words had reached this point, and his attitude was so sincere that Lei Dianshuo had no choice but to agree.
After thinking about it, Lei Dianshuo nodded:
"Okay, as a guest of the Department of General Affairs, I'll just hang on for now."
Hearing that Lei Dianshuo finally agreed, Ningguang couldn't help but smile.
However, immediately afterwards, Lei Dianshuo added a few more points:
"By the way, Ningguang, you don't want to make a big deal about my appointment as General Affairs Secretary. Just handle it in a low-key manner. The fewer people who know about it, the better."
Ning Guang nodded, indicating that he had taken note of it.
Lei Dianshuo continued:
"Since I'm a guest, it means I usually don't have much work to do, so I don't like anyone telling me what to do."
Ning Guang immediately straightened up his expression and made a righteous promise:
"Don't worry, Mr. Shuo, the position of guest minister is respected, and what you are worried about will never happen."
Lei Dianshuo nodded, quite satisfied with Ningguang's attitude, and then continued:
"Also, if you have any trouble, don't come to me. I came to Liyue mainly for tourism, not to solve your troubles.
Of course, as a guest, I do not shoulder all my responsibilities.
Ning Guang, and the other Liyue Seven Stars, if you have anything you don’t understand and want to know, you can consult me. As long as it’s easy to explain, I will tell you everything you know. "
What Ningguang wants is Lei Dianshuo's promise!
The position of Keqing is not originally a position that mainly deals with grand ambitions. Its responsibilities are still similar to those of a consultant.
Ning Guang went to so much trouble, what was the purpose of asking Lei Dianshuo to be his guest?
Aren't you trying to win over Lei Dianshuo?Aren’t you hoping to have someone you can consult if you encounter difficulties in the future?
This is what Lei Dianshuo wants, so even if he has agreed to be the guest, he still wants to ask Ningguang:
"Ningguang, why are you so obsessed with me? Even if Zhongli can't become the guest minister of the General Affairs Department, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can still consult him.
It doesn't mean that since this old guy has retired, you can't ask him for advice. "
Ning Guang smiled calmly, elegantly and generously:
"Of course this is the truth, but since Mr. Zhongli has chosen to retreat, I must respect his thoughts and will not disturb him unless necessary.
What's more, Mr. Shuo is the God of Thunder. He used his position as a guest to win over you, the god, but I made a profit.
Maybe, this is the most profitable business in my life. "
After all, she was Lei Dianshuo's friend. After achieving her goal, Ningguang became much more calm, and even bluntly said the word "win over".
Lei Dianshuo smiled helplessly and shook his head.
If he and Ning Guang were strangers, it wouldn't matter if Lei Dianshuo just walked away at this moment.
But who made Lei Dianshuo Ningguang’s friend?We are still close friends, but after being tricked by Ning Guang, Lei Dianshuo is still very willing to take this small loss.
Chapter 499 Ningguang rarely gets drunk once
But... thinking about it this way, Lei Dianshuo still felt that he was at a loss.
You see, he is a majestic thunder god. He is both an advisor to the West Wind Knights and a guest minister of the Liyue General Affairs Department. This is equivalent to being attracted by Mondstadt and Liyue. It is also equivalent to him, the thunder god, to a certain extent. It protected the two countries of Mondstadt and Liyue at the same time.
It was enough for him, the God of Thunder, to protect his own rice wife, but he also had relations with two other countries, and protected Mondstadt and Liyue to a certain extent.
Isn’t this a loss?If one god wants to protect three countries, he is certainly at a loss!
So at this time, Lei Dianshuo held the wine glass, took a sip of wine, and made calculations in his mind.
And Lei Dianshuo bluntly stated this plan in front of Ningguang:
“It’s a loss this time, absolutely a loss.
No, we can't keep suffering this loss. One day, we have to trick that guy Zhongli into Daozu and let him serve as the honorary official of Daozu shogunate. "
Listening to Lei Dianshuo's words, I don't know if he was talking to himself or not, Ning Guang next to him smiled the whole time and said nothing.
Ning Guang could definitely hear Lei Dianshuo's words. Her silence actually represented acquiescence.
By default, she agreed that their Rock King Emperor should serve in other countries.
In fact, even if Ning Guang disagrees, it is of no use.
What's more, on the surface, Emperor Yanwang is dead. The only person who may hold this honorary position in the Inazuma Shogunate in the future is Mr. Zhongli, the guest of the Rebirth Hall. What qualifications does Ningguang have to stop this?
In any case, the matter was settled like this, and now Lei Dianshuo has another guest position in the Liyue General Affairs Department.
This position actually suits Lei Dianshuo's taste. The status is respected, he doesn't have to worry about anything, nothing can concern him, and he can get a free salary.
At most, when Liyue encounters any trouble in the future, he, as a guest, cannot just stand by and watch, it's a trivial matter.
In this way, the main purpose of Ningguang's banquet with Lei Dianshuo today has been achieved.
Ning Guang was very happy that she had achieved her goal. She took the initiative to pass the wine bottle that Lei Dingshuo took and poured wine for herself and Lei Dingshuo in turn, allowing them to drink with each other in a nice atmosphere.
To be honest, the atmosphere in these Jade Pavilion restaurants is really good at this time.
Needless to say, the surrounding decoration is elegant and luxurious, and the innate conditions are very tempting.
Ning Guang is a rare beauty and a strong woman with great power.
With such a beautiful woman by his side, she also took off her usual tough disguise and became relatively soft, which inevitably made Lei Dianshuo's heart flutter.
Coupled with the achievement of the goal of condensing light, he became even more enthusiastic about Lei Dianshuo. It can't be said that he was obedient, but he basically went along with it.
So many conditions have been achieved, resulting in the current atmosphere between Ningguang and Leidenshuo being quite good.
Once the atmosphere was good, the two of them couldn't help but drink a few more drinks.
Lei Dianshuo's divine physique was there. Even if the wine they drank was from Liyue's Laojiao, the alcohol content was not low, but in Lei Dianshuo's eyes, it was just like that, and it was not drunk at all.
But Ning Guang is different.
At the beginning of the banquet, Ningguang drank three glasses of wine in order to express his respect and gratitude.
When the atmosphere got better later, after the goal was achieved, Ningguang drank a lot more when he was in a good mood.
Liyue Laojiao, who had a high degree of alcohol, kept drinking it. Even though Ningguang was good at drinking and had a good drinker, he couldn't help but feel a little tipsy.
Or should we say that if the wine is not intoxicating, everyone will get drunk?
The two of them drank glass after glass of wine. Lei Dianshuo could still keep his expression calm, but Ning Guang's face had turned red and his expression was confused.
Looking at the beautiful woman standing next to her, she looked like Liu Qingyao, her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were hazy. When the atmosphere was overwhelming, she couldn't help but lean on Lei Dianshuo.
Lei Dingshuo, whose head was still awake, was screaming in his heart that something was wrong.
If it had been anyone else, Lei Dianshuo would have been less polite and would have been expecting something to happen.
But condensation doesn’t work.
It's not a joke, it really doesn't work.
Ning Guang is one of the Tianquan Stars in Liyue, and he is basically the person with the highest status in Liyue today.
Lei Dianshuo can provoke Lisa from Mondstadt, and Ye Lan from Liyue, but he cannot provoke someone like Ning Guang.
It's not a status gap or anything like that, it's mainly a status gap.
After all, he is the Tianquan star, and if he offends the person who is about to take charge of a country, Lei Dianshuo will not look good to each other in the future, and it will be quite embarrassing to see each other again.
Therefore, before things could get out of hand, Lei Dianshuo decisively stepped back from the brink.
He pressed down the wine bottle that Ningguang wanted to pour again, and looked directly into Ningguang's eyes:
"Ningguang, you can't drink any more, you're drunk."
