Genshin Impact: The Glory of the Herrscher Shines on Teyvat

"Bai Wen, are you sure the information above is true? The Water God's followers wrote a story and published it in Liyue. This may be the most incredible thing I have heard in recent years."

Ningguang held her forehead helplessly, speechless about Alicia's behavior.

"It is absolutely true, Master Ningguang." Bai Wen said seriously, "And as far as I know, the people from Feiyun Chamber of Commerce have already handed over the manuscript to us. If there are no problems on our side, we can start printing and publishing directly."

Ningguang pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, then bring it to me first. I want to see what kind of storybook this Water God's follower can write."

"Okay, Master Ningguang, please wait a moment."

Soon after, Bai Wen handed the manuscript to Ningguang. Ningguang took the manuscript and read it carefully...

After a long time, he took a deep breath and closed the manuscript. The good news was that the novel was very well written, and the military strategies and political measures involved were also worthy of study. The bad news was that Ningguang did not find any problems with the content of the novel.

This also means that Ningguang has no way of finding out the other party's purpose.

"Are there any further actions from those people in Fontaine?"

After hearing Ningguang's question, Baiwen pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Those Fontaine people asked Mr. Zhongli of Wangsheng Hall to contact some figures in the literary world. It seems that their purpose is to ask them to help promote the event. Apart from that, they have not taken any other measures."

"At first our intelligence system didn't pay much attention to this matter. Later, the news of this book spread more and more among the people, and Miss Ye Lan went to investigate. However, she didn't find any problems. It seems that the other party really just wants to make this novel a big seller."

“No matter what, we still cannot let our guard down,” Ningguang said. “Send someone to keep an eye on those Fontaine people. Report any abnormalities to me immediately.”

Bai Wen nodded and replied, "Yes, Master Ningguang."

Ningguang still has great confidence in Ye Lan's ability, but she still feels a little uneasy. Could it be that the Water God's followers went to such great lengths just to publish a novel? Is there some conspiracy behind this?

However, there is no other information to support it, so it is difficult to judge. The only thing to do is to send someone to keep an eye on it and wait and see. Just as Ningguang was upset about something beyond her control, another confidant, Baixiao, walked into the room.

"Lord Ningguang, Lord Ganyu wants to see you for something important,"

"Let her in." Ningguang said.

A girl with goat horns on her head and dark circles under her eyes walked into the room and saluted Ningguang.

"Ganyu, what is it that requires you to come to me in person?" Ningguang asked.

"Your Excellency Ningguang, not long ago, an envoy from Fontaine came to Yuehai Pavilion and submitted a diplomatic application to Liyue. The gods and followers of Fontaine want to visit Liyue during the Summoning Immortals Ceremony. According to them, they want to reach some commercial cooperation with Liyue."

Ganyu's voice was gentle, yet filled with fatigue that was difficult to conceal.

Ningguang frowned slightly, thinking that this Water God's family member was really restless. First she published a book, and now she was coming to visit. What on earth was she trying to do?

"I understand. I need to think about this matter. You should go and rest first, Ganyu." Ningguang looked at Ganyu's tired expression and said with concern.

"It's okay. Yue Haiting still has some work to do. I'll rest after I finish it."

Ganyu nodded and left the room.

Ningguang leaned back in her chair, lost in thought.

His own intelligence showed that the Fatui of Winter had been in unrest recently, and had been making frequent moves recently, seemingly planning some conspiracy.

This series of events made her feel that an invisible pressure was approaching Liyue.

She had to think carefully about Alicia's visit. You know, as a follower of a god, she is definitely not an ordinary person, and her identity and status are very important. And she chose to visit Liyue at such a sensitive time as the Immortal Invitation Ceremony. There must be a hidden meaning behind this.

It's impossible that he came here in person to promote his own storybook, right?

The Ceremony of Inviting the Immortals is one of the most important ceremonies of Liyue every year, which is related to the future fate of the entire country and the relationship with the gods. At this critical juncture, any disturbance may lead to unpredictable consequences.

Therefore, she needs to carefully consider this visit from all aspects. First of all, she needs to understand what is the purpose of Alicia's visit? Is it a simple friendly exchange, or is there another purpose? If it is the former, then it is naturally the best; but if it is the latter, she must be prepared in advance to prevent unexpected events from happening.

But after a while, Ningguang smiled silently.

During the ceremony of inviting the gods, the Rock King Emperor will come to Liyue. Not to mention the god's followers, even if the Fontainebleau Water God himself came, the invincible Emperor would protect Liyue. Therefore, the possibility of the other party causing trouble at this special time is not high.

Could it be possible that a cricket like Alicia could assassinate the Emperor?

Thinking of this, Ningguang's worries were alleviated a little.

She decided to send someone to contact the envoy from Fontaine first to learn more about the details of Alicia's visit.

At the same time, she also instructed her subordinates to keep a close eye on the movements of the Fatui to prevent them from taking advantage of the situation.

After making up her mind, Ningguang let out a breath, leaned back, sat back in her chair, feeling the dull pain in her head from thinking for so long, and spoke to Baixiao who was standing beside her.

“Send someone to inform Ganyu and tell her that I agree to Alicia’s visit to Liyue during the Summoning Ceremony.”

“Also, prepare the reception well and make sure this god’s follower can feel the hospitality of Liyue.” Bai Shi received the order and withdrew.

Ningguang rubbed her temples and said to herself, "I hope everything goes smoothly..."

Back then, Ningguang was a little girl of humble origins and low status, but she possessed extraordinary wisdom and courage. In the ever-changing business world of Liyue, she relied on her own tenacious fighting spirit and outstanding talents, overcame countless hardships and obstacles, and in just over a decade, she ascended to the throne of the richest person in Liyue and became a respected Tianquan Star.

However, she is probably the only one who knows the hardships and tribulations she has experienced along the way. The days of sleeping in the open air and working day and night were filled with endless pressure; she had to stay vigilant at all times when facing the open and secret attacks of her competitors; and every decision was as thrilling as walking on the edge of a knife... All of these witnessed the ups and downs of her growth process.

Even though she now holds a high position and has become the most respected and powerful Tianquan Star among the Seven Stars of Liyue, she still cannot relax.

Behind the seemingly prosperous and bustling Liyue Harbor, there are countless crises and challenges. As a Tianquan Star, she shoulders the responsibility of maintaining the peace of Liyue and protecting the well-being of the people.

Every decision and every action concerns the future of Liyue and the life and death of thousands of people.
