Chapter 518: The Advice of the Rock King
"So, what's the matter? What do you want from us, the guest official?"
Walnut asked curiously, and then immediately reminded: "Let me make it clear first, we have something important to do when we go out today!"
"It's just a side job helping Xiangling taste the food."
[The tone of the first sentence seems to be a treasure. 】
[Hu Tao almost wrote on her face that she didn't want to let him go.]
[Haha, Hu Tao doesn't want to let Zhong Li go at all.]
[Serious business: refers to promoting the Wangsheng Hall in Sanwanbugang.]
"Do it, do it. It can't be about the Wangsheng Hall, right? We are celebrating the festival now." Paimeng said a little worriedly.
"There are births, deaths, and aging during festivals, so don't make a fuss."
Walnut said calmly.
Then, looking at Paimon's panicked expression, she laughed and said, "Oh, I was just kidding."
"I just thought that today was a nice day, so I came out to see the street scene and promote my business."
After that, Hu Tao stood up and said, "You guys chat, Xiang Ling and I will go to the boss's place to have some tea."
"Zhongli, just remember to look for me when you're done."
【My wife is so cute. 】
[Walnut, you are so cute! 】
[Promoting that kind of business during the New Year is worthy of Ning. 】
[《Publicity Business》]
"Okay, Hall Master, walk slowly."
Zhongli nodded to Hu Tao and watched her leave.

After Hu Tao and Xiang Ling left, Zhongli said:
"Since you, Jun Bai, came here with them, I guess nothing serious happened."
"Yeah, that's right, you guessed it right."
Xiaojun Bai nodded: "I just came here to ask you, will you come to the dinner this year?"
"If I remember correctly, this year's dinner is after the fireworks display, right? Then I'm free."
Zhongli nodded slightly.
"Which year did I not schedule a dinner party after the show in Liyue Harbor? I know you want to celebrate the Lantern Festival with Hu Tao."
Xiaojun Bai crossed his arms and said.
"As for us..."
Ying and Paimon explain Keqing's situation to Zhongli.
"Yu Hengxing is upright, intelligent and hardworking, and is a pillar of society. However, everything should be done in moderation, and health is the most important thing."
Zhongli folded his arms across his chest as he pondered.
"Zhongli, do you have any way to persuade her?" Ying asked.
Paimon also said expectantly: "Yes, yes, you always speak in a reasonable way, she should listen to you!"
Zhongli pondered and said:
"If I were the Rock King, I would be able to convince her to some extent."
"But now I am a guest official, and I have to consider my status."
[It means that even if Lord Yan comes in person, he may not be able to persuade him. ]
[《It seems to make sense》]
[Even if the Rock King came, he could only consider it a little...]
"Besides, Yuhengxing and I are not very familiar with each other. If I give him advice and lectures without permission, it will only cause disgust." Zhongli shook his head.
"...With Keqing's personality, what the Emperor described is entirely possible." Gan Yu nodded.
"Um……"
Ying pondered, and then his eyes fell on Xiaojun Bai: "Although the emperor is no longer the emperor, the marshal is still the marshal."
"I wonder if the marshal comes forward..."
Jun Bai pointed at Zhongli and said calmly, "I'm not as reasonable as Zhongli, and it might backfire."
"And it's not like I haven't seen someone like Keqing before."
"Once such a person takes on something, he will definitely try to do it to the best of his ability, and basically will not consider his own feelings."
"In this respect, she is very similar to You Meng."
"Do you remember the mural in the Purple Star Palace? It's the one where the God of Destruction faces Marshal Tianfeng and Emperor Yanwang."
Paimon nodded: "I remember, I remember. At that time, I thought that was Ziweixing's intention to seize power."
[To be honest, I am the same. ]
[So what is the symbolic meaning of that mural? It’s been so long that I’ve forgotten it.]
Xiaojun Bai explained:
"That mural was carved by You Meng himself."
"The meaning is: One day, the God of Destruction will take over the responsibility of protecting the people from the hands of the gods."
Zhongli nodded slightly:
"The God of Destruction, the God of Destruction. Meaning: Any existence that threatens the stability of Liyue will be destroyed by the God of Destruction."
"That's why Miss Youmeng named Ziweixing's divine form the God of Destruction."
"To achieve this goal, Miss Youmeng is willing to sacrifice her life."
"The same is true for Yuheng Star. Once she has determined a goal, she will not relax until it is achieved."
“This is a fact that will not change no matter who says it.”
"So facing the challenge head on is not an easy task, and this is the worst option."
Zhongli looked at Ying and said, "We might try to use indirect methods."
"If you have a story that can move her, you can incorporate your message into it."
【Master Zhong really understands the ways of the world. 】
[With 6000 years of experience, he can easily master the ways of the world. 】
[So this is a show to mock Keqing for working overtime?]
“If you draw from life, you will resonate with people.”
"Talking about people and things close to you can achieve twice the result with half the effort."
Ying immediately understood and nodded, "Understood. We will ask someone who is familiar with Keqing."
Paimon still looked confused.
Gan Yu suddenly realized, "As expected of the Emperor."
"The traveler really understood it very quickly."
"Go find some materials. If you're willing, I can also help with some suggestions. Once you have the idea in place, you can tell the story to Yuhengxing through your own mouth." Zhongli said.
Jun Bai looked at Ganyu and said, "Isn't it too much trouble? Isn't the person who knows Keqing best here?"
"I think Ganyu can be used as a personal example."
"I?"
"I?"
Ying and Ganyu asked the question at the same time.
Ying was puzzled by Zhongli, wondering why she was the one who came to persuade Keqing.
Ganyu wondered to Junbai why she was the one to speak out.
Zhongli explained to Ying, "Yuhengxing has a relationship with you. As for the candidate, you are the most suitable."
Jun Bai also said to Ganyu:
"Don't you often work overtime? If I hadn't reminded you, you wouldn't even have thought about finding some help or taking a break."
【It really hits the nail on the head. 】
[Ganyu Legend Mission 2, Ganyu goes home to visit her family on vacation, and then the entire Yuehai Pavilion works around the clock...]
[Note: Ganyu is usually equipped with more than ten secretaries to assist in her work. They are there to assist rather than share the burden.]
[Keqing is just an acquaintance in the official version, but in the second version, she often plays the role of the main wife or the main character. ]
[Is Zhongli acting as a matchmaker to arrange marriages? 】
[Zhongli: I'll give you a chance, but you must use it!]
——Digression
