Although the undercurrent on Dao's wife's side is spreading, it has not yet reached Liyue.

Although there have been some changes to the national lockdown order, such things are very minor and will generally not be discovered unless someone pays special attention to Inazuma's situation.

The country has been locked away for too long, so long that some people have even forgotten this country...

At this moment, in the Hall of Rebirth.

After having a very warm meal, Ningzhe realized that today was not an easy day.

According to the custom of the Palace of Rebirth, today should be a day for people to burn incense, bathe, and worship their ancestors. Just like the story Ningzhe showed before, the Hall of Rebirth began in ancient times, and a tradition has been circulating since then - every day

At this time, the Rebirth Hall will be closed for a day to cultivate one's moral character, get rid of idle things, and communicate with the ancestors.

That's why... seniors would choose to go to the Rebirth Hall at this time to see if their hearts are sincere, right?

As a person who has been recognized, Ningzhe naturally participated in this traditional festival, and went through the entire process with Hutao (except for bathing).

To be honest, although Ningzhe's current family status is second to none in the entire Liyue Port, if we talk about their background, even if they include sister Ningguang, they are far behind these ancient families.

The two siblings, Ningguang and Ningzhe, have only been successful for a few decades. Even though they have reached the top position in Liyue Port, their origins are still ordinary Liyue people. Therefore, Ningzhe has never experienced this kind of thousand-year inheritance.

The tradition of the family.

When Ningzhe saw the tombs of past masters of the Rebirth Hall enshrined in the hall, that indescribable emotion suddenly surged into his heart.

Hu Tao said that every leader of the Palace of the Past has no regrets when he leaves. They often achieve the ultimate in what they should do... At the boundary between life and death, there is never any leader of the Palace of the Past.

, because they will not stay in this world.

Therefore...the names engraved on these spiritual tablets enshrined in the hall are very imitated, and can only be seen vaguely as they are.

After going through these procedures, Ningzhe seems to have completely integrated into the big family of Shengshengtang.

It was actually different from what Ningzhe had imagined. He had always thought that once a family with a history of thousands of years encountered a traditional festival, it would be very cumbersome and complicated. But after actually experiencing it, he found that it was not cumbersome at all. Those rules

The rules and regulations may seem very rigid, but in fact they are very convenient and smooth.

Aristocratic family...

How far had the Alchemist family declined back then that they could be overthrown so easily?

But those things are old news.

After completing a series of things, it was already getting late... It was impossible to take Hutao out in front of these elderly people, so Ningzhe bowed slightly to the seniors in a very cool and unrestrained way, with sufficient etiquette, and Shiran.

left the Hall of Purity.

Of course... before leaving, Ningzhe also quietly transported the small gifts he brought back from Mondstadt to Hutao's room using wind elements... Ahem, he didn't see the specific structure of the room clearly, he just

The things are just placed in the second drawer on the left hand side of the bed.

...

Inside Yunhai Bookstore.

Jiang Guo sat back down on the chair where he was lying very calmly, holding the book "The Heroes of the Three Kingdoms" in his hand and flipping through it casually.

This book was written by an unknown author. Although the book itself is very famous, because the author could not be found, the book was eventually included in the "Historical Literature Area" in the form of an "ancient book".

However, Jiang Guo, a former Privy Councilor in gray, knew very well who those anonymous people were.

Do all talented people like to play this kind of behavior of opening trumpets?

More than half of the good words and sentences in "The Outline of Ancient Poetry" were written by anonymous authors. In other words, Ningzhe wrote nearly 300 very high-quality poems in it, but he did not log in under his own name.

..

If this was written in his own capacity, Ningzhe would be a giant figure in the entire Teyvat literary world, not to mention being an honorary member of the Liyue Writers Association.

But...well, it doesn't matter, it has nothing to do with him anyway.

"Three heroes fought against Lu Bu, burned Red Cliff, and defeated Maicheng... Why are these stories so real despite being obviously fictional historical novels?"

As he flipped through the pages, Jiang Guo became fascinated by the stories inside.

Those countries, forces, and characters... definitely did not appear on the continent of Teyvat, but the content in this book is so real, as if they had actually lived...

Is this the writing style of a top writer?

Just when Jiang Guo read the chapter "Defeat Maicheng" and that Master Guan was about to be beheaded, a man in black suddenly appeared next to him.

"Yo? It came so quickly. I haven't even finished the book yet..."

Jiang Guo was not surprised at all by the appearance of this man. He threw away the "The Heroes of the Three Kingdoms" in his hand, and the book fell into the hands of the man in black. At the same time, he said: "This book

The book is what they are trying to connect with this time...I used some means to confuse the guy who came to respond. I estimate that I can buy four hours, and I will leave the specific symbol deciphering work to you."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Guo paused for a moment, and then said: "The guy who came to get information is Daotsuma, so we should pay attention to this..."

Hearing this, the man in black nodded very seriously, and then put the book away.

After hesitating for a moment, the man in black finally said: "Master Shaokang, are you really not going to participate in this investigation?"

"I have to remind you...according to the formal procedures, I am no longer a member of the Privy Council, so it is better not to call me [Shaokang]."

Jiang Guo stretched out very lazily, and then lay back down on the chair with a snap.

"yes..."

The man in black bowed slightly, then used a movement technique, and disappeared in the next second, as if he had never appeared.

After the man in black left, Jiang Guo's eyes gradually darkened.

[Shaokang] was his code name when he was the "Gray Coat" in the Privy Council. At that time, he was the most promising person to succeed Yunfu and become the next "White Coat". It was a pity that Yunfu died in the Auxerre Rebellion, and he himself

Also poached...

Fortunately, the Privy Council has almost fallen under Tianquanxing's sect, so it will be easier to do things in the future.

After investigating part of the truth about the Ning family's tragedy that year, Jiang Guo has completely understood... that kind of thing is not something ordinary people like them can get involved in. It was the right decision for Ning or to let go at that time.

But... now that his boss Ningzhe has been involved in the whirlpool, he has to make some plans.

Um?

Suddenly, there was a burst of noise on the street outside the door, and it sounded like a big shot had arrived at the bookstore.
