Genshin Impact: The Glory of the Herrscher Shines on Teyvat

Although Hu Tao had been brought into the General Affairs Department by Keqing, she did not receive any special treatment. She was simply called aside to receive individual instruction from Keqing.

"Master Hu Tao, considering the great contributions that your Wangsheng Hall has made to Liyue for dozens of generations, I hope you can answer the questions honestly and actively cooperate with the investigation. Please tell me the truth. What exactly made you say this?"

Faced with Keqing's serious and righteous questioning.

Hu Tao first chuckled, then rubbed her hands together and said with an embarrassed look: "Oh my, Master Keqing, what is our relationship? Why are you so rigid? In fact, it was all because I was confused for a moment and fell victim to that villain's scheme!"

Seeing Hu Tao's attitude, Keqing couldn't help but frown, and then she rebuked him in a more stern tone: "Master Hu, please correct your attitude! This is the General Affairs Department. No matter how close our personal relationship is, once we step into this place, there will be no mercy! Now, immediately explain to me clearly what the so-called "being deceived" is all about!"

After seeing Keqing's attitude, Hu Tao's originally cheerful expression instantly disappeared, and was replaced by an angry face: "I have always thought that I am very smart, but I never expected to be deceived by that bad woman! She told me that Ganyu is the coconut sheep, otherwise why would I go to Ganyu to ask for coconut milk?"

Keqing was skeptical when she heard Hu Tao's words. She frowned and said with a doubtful tone, "Master Hu, you are no longer young. Do you need others to tell you what coconut milk is? Besides, the so-called coconut sheep is a myth. How can you believe it so easily?"

Seeing that Keqing was doubting her, Hu Tao felt that she had suffered a great injustice. She hurriedly argued loudly and told Keqing the details of her conversation with Alicia that night.

"That's how it happened... I finally chose to believe her! And Keqing, you might as well think about it carefully, does Ganyu really have a pair of horns on her head?"

At this moment, Ganyu brought Zhongli to the door of the General Affairs Department and happened to hear the whole process described by Hu Tao.

When Ganyu heard Hu Tao say that she had goat horns on her head, she couldn't help but reach out and touch her head. Then she turned around and asked Zhongli with a puzzled look on her face: "Mr. Zhongli, do you think my horns really look like goat horns?"

The corners of Zhongli's mouth twitched slightly, and he secretly complained in his heart. He really didn't know how to answer this question.

After all, Ganyu was raised by Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun, so she could be considered his junior. If I were to say that it looked like a sheep's horn, it would probably hurt Ganyu's self-esteem; but if I insisted that it didn't look like a sheep's horn, it would be a bit of self-deception.

Ganyu didn't get a response from Zhongli for a long time, so she sighed helplessly, then gently opened the door and led Zhongli into the house. Keqing and Hutao, who were still wondering whether what Hutao said was true or not, also came back to their senses because of the movement at the door.

Keqing: "Ganyu!"

Hu Tao: "Zhongli guest official!"

When Hu Tao saw Zhong Li, she quickly ran to him, grabbed his arm and said, "Guest Zhong Li, I made a mistake, you have to help me!"

After Keqing greeted Ganyu, the image of the Coconut Sheep lingered in her mind. Her eyes involuntarily drifted to Ganyu's head, and then she nodded secretly. It was indeed a resemblance!

After Ganyu saw Hu Tao again, she no longer had the anger she had before. After all, she had already learned that Hu Tao had been deceived, so naturally she couldn't blame her for this. However, some things still had to be made clear.

"Master Hu, I heard everything you said outside. Considering that you were indeed deceived and are underage and a girl, I will not pursue this matter."

After hearing what Ganyu said, Hu Tao patted her tablet and breathed a sigh of relief. Just as Hu Tao was about to thank Ganyu, Ganyu continued.

"But there are some things I feel I need to make clear to you. First, I have never heard of such a creature as the 'coconut sheep'; second, the horns growing on my head are not sheep horns. Of course, the most important thing is that no matter what the reason is, you must never do such rude things again in the future!"

Hu Tao nodded in agreement when she heard this. After Gan Yu agreed, Zhongli led them away.

Gan Yu watched the two go away, then turned to look at Keqing, with her hands on her hips, and said angrily, "Keqing, how could you take the initiative to bring Master Hu to the General Affairs Department without informing me in advance? Fortunately, you knew how to judge the extent this time and did not make a big mistake."

Although Keqing, the nominal boss, was criticized by her subordinates, she did not get angry. The reason was actually quite clear - if you really want to look into it, it is probably difficult to determine who can really give orders.

Besides, this incident was indeed caused by Keqing's failure to follow the rules.

So Keqing could only scratch her head and apologize to Ganyu first, and then explained: "Actually, I saw that you were busy, so I wanted to help you deal with it. Besides, I was afraid that you would be embarrassed to say it."

Ganyu blushed slightly after hearing this, and realized that Keqing meant well. As for her previous reminder to Keqing, it was also out of her duty. As the general secretary of the Seven Stars, Ganyu has the responsibility to monitor the Seven Stars.

That said, Liyue's administrative structure is indeed quite unique. At the top is the Geo Emperor, but he usually does not get involved in day-to-day affairs. Generally speaking, decisions are made by the Seven Stars and then reviewed by Ganyu in the Moon Sea Pavilion.

Once approved, the document will be forwarded to the General Affairs Department and eventually to the Eight Gates for execution. Similarly, if there is a problem with a subordinate department, the information will still be first passed to Ganyu in Yuehai Pavilion. After screening, important matters will be submitted to Qixing for decision.

It can be said that Yue Haiting or Ganyu plays a core role in connecting the upper and lower levels, which is why she is so busy. It is not that there are no other people who can help Ganyu share the work. For example, when Ganyu was on vacation, she temporarily asked someone to take over for a day, but if she wanted to replace him for a long time, it would be impossible.

After all, the matters involved in this position are extremely complicated and important, and not just anyone has the ability and qualifications to handle them.

As for the reason for the formation of this system, it was naturally because the Emperor wanted to prevent possible corruption among the Seven Stars, so he deliberately embedded Ganyu into it to check and balance the power of the Seven Stars. So to be honest, Ganyu is the real uncrowned king of Liyue.
