Chapter 130: Looking forward and looking back

Of course, just because Bai Qiyun doesn't act with Ying, it doesn't mean that Ying is the only one patrolling outside the city. In that case, the knights would be too careless.

As a task assigned by the top management, the Knights dispatched several knights responsible for patrolling the city to follow Ying.

However, considering their poor combat power, these knights are basically just leading the way and making up the numbers.

After arranging the follow-up actions, Kaiya felt a little relaxed watching the two people leave.

To be honest, it is great to have two capable and trustworthy helpers at this juncture.

In this way, he can take a good look at the city of Mondstadt under the surging undercurrent.

The captain of the cavalry looked across the square and landed on the luxurious hotel not far away, where there were envoys and fools from the solstice.

The Knights have made new moves, so how will the other party react?

Haha, that’s really exciting.

After taking a brief look, Kaia took steps again. He still wanted to lay out the series of plans he had just made.

But before crossing the gate of the Knights, Qin, who had just gone to the side to discuss matters with Schubert, came over holding her forehead.

Judging from the headache on her face, the outcome of the discussion may not be ideal.

"Acting Captain, what happened to that guy?"

Not being angry with Schubert doesn't mean that Kaia really doesn't care about him at all, but it just doesn't mean that he is making trouble all the time.

Qin couldn't help but get a headache when she mentioned that guy.

The golden single pony tail swung behind her, now like an old horse's tail, rough and tired.

"It's still the same problem. He's here to apply for the restoration of the Lawrence family's territory management rights."

Yes, that's right, as an old nobleman, Lawrence still has his own fiefdom. This is because his ancestors were the first to follow Barbatos to establish Mondstadt. Have you seen the huge statue of the God of Wind? That is the Lawrence family's.

What the mistress asked to be built is still standing here even though it has been thousands of years.

It is true that the Lawrence family had their faults, but they also had their initial glory, so when trying Lawrence, who had committed a serious crime, the Knights of the West Wind still left them with the last trace of dignity.

Only most of their territory was cut off, and the area near their manor was retained, but it could only be used for residence and not for business.

At first, due to the popularity of the Knights and the fact that the family business could still be maintained, the Laurence family just let it go. However, in recent years, the family's financial situation has declined, and there have been serious problems with the business situation, so that Schubert worked day and night.

Run to the Knights and want to restore the management rights of their family's territory.

The key point is that in addition to his whimsical ideas, his arrogant attitude is even more annoying to others. Only when Qin, who is also from a noble family, discusses issues with him, the other party is willing to listen to a few words.

But Qin was not qualified to revoke the punishment that year. The original intention was to use the fiefdom only as the residence of the Lawrence family. If she wanted to support herself, she would honestly support herself and work like other Mondlanders.

But I didn't expect the Lawrence family to be able to hold on so hard, and they had to support their servants for thousands of years without any loss.

I really don’t know whether it’s better to say that they value love and justice, or that they are stubborn and stubborn. They have forced themselves to keep servants for so many years just to keep themselves from being nobles.

As long as they fire some servants, they won't end up in the current situation. At least they can maintain the quality of life for several generations.

"But I have no way to respond to his request. You must know that it was Lady Vanessa and the first generation of knights who set this rule back then. If you want to overturn the decision now, it will go against the people in a sense.

It is my wish, and the current atmosphere in the city does not allow me to do so."

Facing her subordinates, Qin seemed much more relaxed than when she was communicating with Schubert just now.

She adjusted her shawl to make herself look more calm.

As the acting leader of the Knights, there are still requirements for appearance.

"In this case, we can only refuse him."

In fact, the Schubert incident itself was not a big deal, but Kaia couldn't help but feel scrupulous when she recalled the colleague who talked about "revenge" all day long.

Even if the other party said that she wanted to break away from the family chain, when considering Lawrence's affairs, who could really take her out?

After all, the blood in your body will never disappear.

"I have entrusted the patrols outside the city to the honorary knights. Recently, the matters within the city still require more attention from you, Captain."

Kaia once again left the matter to Qin with a natural look, but this time it didn't go as he expected.

"I may have something to do recently, and the Knights need you and Lisa to take more care of it."

The words of the acting team leader made Kaia raise her eyebrows unconsciously.

This...is interesting.

What kind of major event could make this always diligent leader put aside his official duties to deal with it?

If you think about it carefully, there is probably only one answer.

"The acting captain...could it be that he has to deal with the dragon disaster?"

Kaia deliberately lowered her voice to prevent others from hearing her.

Unexpectedly, the man in front of her could guess her intention in such a short period of time. Qin could only nodded with a wry smile.

These guys really understood her temperament clearly.

"If you know it, you can do more. The situation in the city recently is not peaceful."

Qin raised her white chin and gestured towards the Goethe Hotel over there, the meaning was self-evident.

"Don't worry, I've already made arrangements here."

Fools and all, Kaia has never let down his guard against each other.

The reason why he asked the honorary knight to leave the city just now was to lure out the group of guys lurking in the dark. Before the next dragon disaster comes, he wants to take a closer look at how many potential dangers there are in the city.

Just like the old saying in Liyue, lure the snake out of its hole.

————————

After bidding farewell to Ying and Paimon, Bai Qiyun got on the carriage at the door and drove towards Chenxi Winery where Diluc was.

"You really don't worry about your companions."

Since there was no one else in the cabin, Yandora floated beside Bai Qiyun and chatted with him.

"Are you talking about Ying? What she said should be fine. Don't forget that there are knights patrolling around Mondstadt. Even if there is any danger, it will be dealt with very quickly."

If they hadn't chased the man who stole the piano too far that night, they would have even assembled a whole team of West Wind Knights at the city gate to intercept him.

Perhaps he was also afraid of the strength of the Knights, so the man fled Mondstadt in such a hurry after he succeeded.

After dismissing Yandora, Bai Qiyun, who was bored, opened the curtains and went outside.

The turquoise waves continue to stretch on the ground. In this turquoise ocean, a quaint manor sits on it.
