Genshin Impact: The Glory of the Herrscher Shines on Teyvat

The Qianyan Army in front of Ningguang said angrily, "We found two very suspicious people! Their whereabouts were strange and suspicious! We wanted to catch them and interrogate them, but who knew they had accomplices to help us! We were caught off guard and several of us were injured! It's really hateful!"

Hearing this, Ningguang frowned. She had originally instructed the Qianyan Army to seal off the scene and search for suspicious persons as an excuse, but now it sounded like the situation was more serious than she had imagined. She had never thought that they would actually find the suspects. Moreover, these people were able to escape in full view of the public, so they were obviously not ordinary people.

After leaving the Jade Pavilion and coming to the Moon Sea Pavilion not far away, Ningguang tried to calm herself down. She knew very well that with the strength of the Rock King, ordinary people could not pose a threat to him at all. Not to mention that this assassination was so secretive that there were almost no clues left. Could it be that there was a powerful force behind these suspects?

Ningguang sealed off the scene mainly to control public opinion and protect the immortal ancestor's transformation. After all, the assassination of the emperor was no small matter. If it was not handled properly, it would likely cause panic and anxiety among the people. In addition, she also hoped that the matter could be properly resolved before a greater crisis occurred to prevent the situation from escalating further.

However, Ningguang felt a headache when she thought of this. She sighed secretly, why did such an unfortunate thing happen when she was presiding over the ceremony of inviting the immortals? I am afraid that at this moment, people are already talking about her. She couldn't help but worry whether this incident would affect her image and status in the hearts of the people of Liyue...

Ningguang picked up the teacup and took two sips, letting the warm tea flow down her throat and calming down her shock. She put down the cup, looked firmly at the Qianyan Army in front of her, and gave the order calmly and decisively:

"Immediately send someone to notify Ganyu and issue a wanted order for the suspect. At the same time, inform all Qianyan soldiers in the city to enter a state of martial law and block every passage in Liyue Harbor. No one is allowed to leave Liyue Harbor without clear notice!" Qianyan soldiers saluted respectfully, indicating that they obeyed the order, but there was a hint of hesitation in their tone. He hesitated as if he was having difficulty speaking.

Ningguang was keenly aware of this problem. She frowned slightly, with a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes. But she still said, "Just say what you want to say. There's no need to be hesitant."

After getting Ningguang's permission, Qianyan Jun finally mustered up the courage to tell Ningguang exactly what his subordinates had reported: "Lord Ningguang, according to my subordinate Qianyan Jun, the two escaped suspects were brought to Yujingtai by Miss Alicia and Miss Funina of the Fontaine Mission."

"Crack!"

The teacup in Ningguang's hand suddenly slipped and fell to the ground with a crisp shattering sound. The hot tea splashed everywhere like a fountain, but Ningguang had no time to care about these things at this time. She stared at Qianyanjun in front of her with a serious face and sharp eyes like a hawk, as if she wanted to see through every wave in his heart. Then she asked word by word very slowly and clearly: "Are you sure? Those two people were really brought to Yujingtai by them?"

Faced with Ningguang's strong reaction, Qianyanjun in front of him couldn't help but hesitate. He lowered his head slightly and hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted his teeth, nodded vigorously, and replied in a low but firm voice: "I can be sure that more than one of my Qianyanjun saw them appear together on Yujingtai." After saying this, Qianyanjun seemed to be relieved.

However, Ningguang frowned even more after hearing this answer. This was the news she least wanted to hear. She thought to herself that this matter was very serious. If it was not handled properly, it would most likely lead to a serious diplomatic dispute between the two countries. In addition, the other party's extraordinary strength was currently unsolvable. She stared into the distance quietly, lost in thought, and after a moment, she gradually came up with a plan in her mind.

Ningguang once again turned her gaze towards Qianyan Army. Her eyes became more calm and determined. Her tone was calm but with an irresistible majesty. She asked, "Is there any solid evidence to prove that these two people are related to this case?"

Although her words were brief, the pressure contained in them made Qianyan Jun feel nervous. He shook his head and then said, "No, they separated after arriving at Yujingtai together. After that, they stayed in the attic and did not go out. Besides, they cooperated with our questioning very well."

Ningguang finally relaxed a little after hearing the news, but she still looked solemn. She said calmly, "In this case, this matter must not be spread without solid evidence. You must warn those of your subordinates who know the inside story. If anyone dares to leak it, I will not let them off easily."

After hearing this, the Qianyan soldier's face turned serious. He immediately nodded and said that he would follow Ningguang's instructions. Then, he saluted Ningguang and left the room.

As the door slowly closed, Ningguang was the only one left in the room. She suddenly felt weak all over, as if all her strength had been drained away, and slowly collapsed into a chair. She raised her head and stared blankly at the beams, trying to calm her thoughts.

The death of the Emperor was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the ordinary people of Liyue. For Ningguang, it was like a pillar of support in her heart collapsed. However, unlike others, she could not vent her emotions through communication, shouting or even crying.

As one of the seven stars, she knew that she had to be strong in front of everyone and could not easily show her vulnerable side. Only by staying calm in times of crisis could she calm others.

Ningguang's heart was full of contradictions and pain at the moment. She silently endured the pressure and tried to free herself from her chaotic thoughts. She knew that now was not the time to be sad, and there were still many things waiting for her to deal with. She had to recover as soon as possible and move on.

Thinking of this, Ningguang patted her cheeks and forced herself to calm down. Now was not the time to rest. In addition to comforting the people in Liyue Harbor, there was something more important for her to think about, which was the upcoming questioning from the Liyue immortals.
