Chapter 470 A quick meeting (Part 2)

"Ouyang. Why did you do this?"

Gan Yu was a little confused by Ouyang.

She vaguely understood that Ouyang wanted to keep her to work.

But after firing her, he signed a contract with her using another identity.

She doesn't understand the significance of Ouyang's operation?

Ouyang took back the crystal in his hand and explained: "You protect Liyue because you signed a contract with Morax, but now that he wants to retire, this contract naturally has hidden dangers."

"Without restraint, I don't want you to just walk away in the future."

"I need you very much, and Liyue needs you very much, so I can't leave such a hidden danger of instability to Liyue and me."

need me

Gan Yu was a little embarrassed by Ouyang's eyes and words.

However, she asked again: "Of course I am willing to continue to stay in Liyue, but even if the emperor really wants to retire, then, as long as Qixing is willing to continue to employ me, of course I will not leave."

"It's different." Ouyang shook his head and continued, "The job of secretary at Yue Haiting is no longer suitable for you."

"Huh? Then what do you want me to do?"

"Secretary-General to the Prime Minister!"

“What is that?!”

Ouyang glanced around, looked at Ningguang and Keqing, then looked at Gan Yu again, explaining: "Liyue's power structure needs some adjustments."

"I propose to set up a department, the Liyue Prime Minister's Secretariat, with Gan Yu as the secretary-general, and transfer the supervision power of Yuehai Pavilion to the Prime Minister's Secretariat, and the authority is under the seven stars. In addition to military power, the other eight departments are subject to

Prime Minister’s Secretariat Moderation.”

"The positions of Qixing remain unchanged, but from now on all domestic government affairs will need to be submitted to the Prime Minister's Secretariat for approval before being distributed."

To put it simply, it was the position of Prime Minister of the motherland in the previous life.

The reason why Ouyang did this is very simple: to break the vertical management model of Seven Stars directly overstepping their authority.

Today's Seven Stars each control one or several departments within the Eight Gates, but their authority is not clear.

As for him, as a Tianshu star, he said he was in charge of taxation.

But what about in reality? Military power, internal affairs, taxation, and even diplomacy, intelligence and other aspects if he is willing.

This is of course nothing to those who are capable.

For example, Ning Guang, although it was very unpleasant to see her, Ouyang knew that she was an all-rounder!

But how many condensed lights will there be in Liyue?

What Ouyang wants is stability. Although he will not increase the authority of the Prime Minister's Secretariat to a high level at present, he will implement it thoroughly in the future.

The simplest explanation is that Ouyang is looking for someone who can fully represent him to manage Liyue.

Zhongli handed over power to Ouyang, and Ouyang handed over power to Gan Yu in disguise.

That's essentially it.

In the venue, Gan Yu was still thinking about the meaning of Ouyang's words, but Ningguang reacted immediately.

And as expected, Ouyang objected verbally.

"I object!"

Ningguang actually felt uneasy because she came to the meeting today and she wanted something from Ouyang.

But on this issue involving her own core interests, she didn't want to let it go in such a confused way.

"What you are doing is too radical and is not safe for Liyue!"

"That's right. Let's try it out first and connect it with my work content. You can continue as usual."

Um?!

Ouyang gave in so simply, which surprised Ningguang.

But she quickly realized that she had been fooled!!

Ning Guang looked at Ouyang with a calm expression, but he still didn't understand what he meant.

Ouyang deliberately raised the tone from the beginning so that she had no choice but to object.

Now that Ouyang has chosen to give in, he really can't continue to oppose it - if he continues to oppose it, he will offend others.

This made Ningguang extremely anxious, because no matter what, even if Ouyang gave in, this department still had not been abolished.

This is the point!

The existence of the Prime Minister's Secretariat will seriously threaten the interests of all Seven Stars in the future, and this is what Ningguang cares about.

She turned to look at Keqing, hoping that the other party would also object at this moment and strangle the signs of this power change.

But Keqing did not object directly as Ningguang thought, but asked after thinking about it.

"Ouyang, if the Prime Minister's Secretariat is fully implemented, what do you think about Qixing?"

"Seven stars"

Although it was Ke Qing who asked the question, Ouyang glanced at the direction of the light first, and finally explained to Ke Qing: "In general, my job remains unchanged, but at that time, the Prime Minister's Secretariat needs to coordinate

It’s just an arrangement.”

"Then all matters at home and abroad will be discussed by everyone as they are now."

"Of course, Liyue Seven Stars still respect the power of heaven."

This last sentence almost made Ning Guang jump up and curse Ouyang for being shameless.

Well said!

It is true that Tianquan is respected, but you, Ouyang, are the one who took over the power from Morax. Can I, Tianquan, still resist?!

Ning Guang, who was so angry, turned half of his body in his seat and turned away from looking at Ouyang.

She has already seen that it is impossible for Keqing to oppose Ouyang.

In this conference room, it seemed that the four people had their own interests and demands, but in fact, including herself, they all wanted something from Ouyang!

So she gave up. Since Ouyang had no interest in her at the moment, she just pinched her nose and admitted it.

Seeing that Ningguang and Keqing no longer objected, Ouyang turned to Gan Yu, who was still thinking.

"Miss Gan Yu, you don't have to rush to answer my question. You can continue to do your things these days. We will discuss this matter again after the ceremony of sending immortals is completed."

"I, I really need to think about it." Gan Yu nodded and agreed, but then she asked, "But didn't you say that the emperor is not dead? Why did you suddenly say that you want to hold an immortal ceremony?"

"It's enough for us and the immortals to know that Morax is not dead, but for the common people, there must be a result."

"Can't it be said that the emperor traveled far away?"

"Do you think the people of Liyue can accept the explanation that Prince Yan doesn't want Liyue and has gone on a trip?"

"Okay." Gan Yu wanted to refute, but felt that Ouyang was right.

The people of Liyue have had the emperor's existence engraved in their bones for thousands of years. If the people were told that the emperor was traveling and would not be in Liyue in a short period of time, the people would probably be noisy for a long time.

Especially when this short time is still equal to forever, this statement will also become a hidden danger for Liyue.

"Then who will handle this matter? Me?"

"No, I propose to give it to the guest of the Palace of Purity, Zhongli."

Zhongli?!

Gan Yu was slightly surprised by this familiar name.

It is said that Zhongli, who is the guest of the Palace of the Past, is a learned man. Maybe he is the right person to hand it over?!

Gan Yu wanted to ask more details, but seeing the silence of the other two Qixings, she did not speak again.

The atmosphere in the conference room became so quiet.

Ouyang took out a pocket watch and looked at the time. Only half an hour had passed. He was very satisfied.

"My work is almost finished, so do you have anything else to do?"

"One thing"

The one who spoke was Ning Guang.

She turned sideways, deliberately not looking at Ouyang.

As she spoke, she stretched out a finger and continued: "Beidou told me yesterday that there is something wrong with the ocean currents in the Guyunge waters. It is suspected that there are magical beasts on the bottom of the sea."

"Out of trust in Beidou's navigation experience, I am willing to believe her words, but the problem I am facing now is that if I order someone to investigate, it will definitely delay many businessmen's time to go to sea, and those businessmen will not be happy."

"But if there is no investigation, then if the matter is true, it will cause immeasurable losses to the safe trade of Liyue Port."

"Do you have any ideas?"
