Chapter 931: Friendship, Accountability, 2-System

"The goal of the war faction is to disrupt the peace talks and keep the war going. Yesterday, after the decision to negotiate peace was made, I sent guards to the negotiation site in advance to confirm the situation there. There should be quite a few war factions among those guards who have infiltrated the team. They may want to attack the soldiers of the Tianling Bugyo who will definitely come here in advance, or suddenly attack on the day of the negotiation."

Coral Palace Xinhai said to Jiang Yi.

Although Feimu Village will also participate in the peace talks, Jiang Yi will not be present, and the gods of both sides will not interfere.

So, when the war hawks got the news, they seemed to feel that they had an opportunity to disrupt the peace talks.

"I cannot take the new guard to the neutral zone, as that would arouse the vigilance of all parties... I also don't know how many naval soldiers are involved in this plan... After arriving, if I replace them at the last minute, there may be a situation where no one can be trusted."

Coral Palace Xinhai reflected on his mistakes.

This was the second time she failed to win people's hearts.

"It has happened, and I will think about countermeasures."

"Those soldiers certainly made mistakes, but the fault is not entirely theirs. No matter what, I will find a way to save their lives..."

Jiang Yi sat up straight: "Are you asking about my attitude?"

He knew that Coral Palace Xinhai was not asking him to take action, but was asking about this matter. If those soldiers had offended him and framed him, he could punish them, but could he spare their lives?

This has nothing to do with whether she believes in the mercy of God, but is the attitude of a witch.

With the gods, everything is no longer decided by her alone.

"As for mortal matters, you can make bold decisions!" Jiang Yi said, "Today, I will also tell you about my divine ways!"

"What is the way of the gods..."

He expounded on his ideas as a god and immortal.

Coral Palace Xinhai listened carefully.

……

Day three.

Coral Palace Xinhai imagined many situations in the negotiations and wrote them down as tips.

Then, he visited Himiki Village alone as a representative of the sea.

The village chief Washizu and the new shrine maiden Hanasari came to greet them.

There is only one purpose for this meeting, which is to reach a consensus that Bayun Island and Kaiji Island are allies, first to gain benefits from Tenryo Bugyo, and then to have internal discussions.

The village chief arranged a house for Xinhai of Coral Palace.

Jiang Yi accompanied Coral Palace Xinhai to visit Feimu Village. At the same time, he stood beside the narrow space of Wuxiang Blade and used talismans to transform into two rainbow bridges, connecting Tengdou Fort and Feimu Village, the two places on the Bayun Island.

May the two places be on good terms!

The two men visited the soldiers at Tengdou Fort again.

After returning to Himiki Village, they looked up at the bones of Oropus together, and offered sacrifices to the great sea god under the head of the snake god.

There are also ancient war relics on Bayun Island.

It was a war where it was hard to tell right from wrong.

After one night, we arrived at the neutral zone of Nashikinada.

Peace talks finally arrived.

Ying and Paimon followed.

Many representatives from Himiki Village and the "present-day god priestess" of Kaijima Island faced Kujo Sara, the representative of Tenryo Bugyo, together at the venue for the tripartite talks.

The surrounding sea and shogunate soldiers were standing on both sides with guns.

But Himimura did not bring any guards.

He only brought a hundred ghosts secretly - the wild skeleton.

"Long time no see, Kujo Sara. The last time we met was on the battlefield." Coral Palace Xinhai greeted him first.

"Yeah, we suffered a lot at your hands back then..." Kujo Sara responded in a chatty tone, then looked at Ying and Paimon, "By the way, why are you guys here too?"

"Come and witness this peace talk." Ying said.

Kujo Sara nodded and looked at Washizu: "I apologize on behalf of the shogunate for what happened to Himeki Village, but if you want to take Yaebi Island away from the jurisdiction of the shogunate as requested by Himeki Village... I will not back down!"

"Well, Lord Kujo, why bother with the pleasantries? Let's get straight to the point!" Washizu bowed without being humble or arrogant.

The former village chief was no longer a soldier of the shogunate, but a follower of Mingshin.

The Council of Elders had already prepared the bottom line for the peace talks.

Coral Palace Xinhai nodded in agreement.

"Okay! First of all, it's the issue of maritime jurisdiction. During the war, we restricted the activities of fishermen from Kaijima in the waters of Naruto-Kamikaze Island..." The three of them sat down, and Kujo Sara spoke solemnly.

"We are planning to officially lift the restrictions now, but they need to pay taxes according to the tax laws of our Narukami Island before they can bring their harvest back to Kaiji Island."

Coral Palace Xinhai did not refute this proposal.

But he made a request: "However, people who fish near Mingjin Island need to be protected by the Tenryo Bugyo. If they suffer any losses due to public security issues, the Tenryo Bugyo must come forward to resolve it."

Kujo Sara also nodded and agreed to this.

Both parties included this matter in the agreement.

"Taxes from Himiki Village..." Kujo Sara looked at Washizu.

"No! Please, Lord Kujo, please change it to Yamenjima..." Washizu looked serious.

For Hime Village, paying some taxes is just a token of their gratitude to the shogunate. The purpose of the tax collection is to maintain the operation of Yakiniku Island, worship the gods, and build the island.

The negotiations between Kujo Sara and Washizu were not going well.

The shogunate could not even think of collecting taxes on the grain produced from the fields gifted by Lord Bodhi Myoha.

Then, there is the issue of building a shrine to worship the shrine maidens in Himi Village.

Kujo Sara received some advice from the general on this matter and was somewhat relaxed.

"The next issue is the exchange of personnel and the affiliation of the permanent troops. In the past, whether our people went to Haizhi Island or Haizhi Island people came here, they would be interrogated." Kujo Sara began to talk to Coral Palace Xinhai again. "The end result is that there is less and less communication between the two sides, and few merchants are willing to do business across islands."

Facing people from both sides at the same time, she still acted in an orderly manner and maintained the face of the shogunate.

"Now that the war is over, I propose that the Society Bugei select some businessmen to be in charge of business and trade on both sides." No one from the Society Bugei came, so this matter was considered to be the decision made by Tianling Bugei on his own.

"Business and trade require a give and take. Merchants from both sides must participate, and it cannot be left entirely to the society." Coral Palace Xinhai refused.

There is a difference between public and private, even if She Fengxing has a connection with Jiang Yi, it is not allowed.

Kujo Sara responded: "But as far as I know, Kaijima is in urgent need of various supplies. It would be a good thing for you to let the company to coordinate the distribution."

Coral Palace Xinhai looked calm: "Supplies are in short supply, we naturally have ways to alleviate it. Haizhi Island is rich in products, and there are many merchants from other places willing to come here."

Kujo Sara thought of Jiang Yi, Tianzang, the treasure of heaven. If the gods intervened and provided supplies, Haizhi Island would not be afraid of supply shortages.

It seems that this proposal will not go smoothly again.

She sighed slightly in her heart. She never thought that the invisible jailbreaker she first met at the Town Magistrate's Office, who she thought was an alien with a special lightning element and powerful swordsmanship, would become Inazuma's god!

This was beyond her expectations.

Coral Palace Xinhai said: "Besides, this matter should be discussed with us by the Kamisato family. The Tenryo Bugyo... probably doesn't have the authority in this regard."

She kind of wanted to meet the Kamisato siblings.

Although Jiang Yi is a celestial treasure, he is not a god who can help without limits. He will only grant everything when there is a real crisis or a disaster that is difficult for mortals to resist.

Next, Kujo Sara talked with Washizu.

A few more topics passed.

"In that case, let's talk about public security. I want the public security forces of Kaijima to return to the jurisdiction of Tenryo Bugyo." This is a very wishful decision, but isn't that what meetings are for? Kujo Sara doesn't just represent herself.

Coral Palace Xinhai flatly refused.

"Nothing is impossible. The Tenryo is in charge of Inazuma's public security, and it is impossible for him to always allow Kaijima to be an exception..." Kujo Sara knew that now was the best opportunity to completely enshrine Jiang Yi as a god on Kaijima and announce it to Inazuma.

Unexpectedly, the words fell.

There was a sudden commotion on Haizhi Island, and the armed soldiers roared and rushed forward.

"You despicable Kujo family, you colluded with the Faints and wanted to take away everything from our Kaijima!"

Several Coral Palace soldiers were emotional.

Seeing this situation, the shogunate troops rushed forward with guns raised.

Washizu protected the people of Himiki Village and watched silently.

Ying stepped forward to stop both parties.

Paimeng looked at the treasure bag in the heart of the Coral Palace and hurriedly opened it. He felt dizzy and had no idea which tactic to use now.

Coral Palace looked at the expressions of the shogunate soldiers over there, and his heart gradually calmed down.

"So..." She looked at Kujo Sara and seemed to understand something.

Coral Palace Xinhai ordered the rebel soldiers to retreat.

Kujo Sara suspended meeting

……

At this moment, above the clouds in the sky.

Jiang Yi and Ying looked down side by side.

Kujo Sara is questioning the shogunate soldiers.

"The Fatui did approach the shogunate's soldiers, wanting to continue their cooperation and continue the war against Kaijima." Ying said, "Although they didn't agree, they also ordered the Fatui to go to Kaijima to cause damage..."

"So, the negotiation advantage comes to Haizhi Island." Jiang Yi responded.

"The Revenge of the Fatui... Never mind, Kujo Sara will take care of it." Ying shook his head.

Looking down, the peace talks continued.

Kujo Sara felt pity for the group of people involved in the tragedy in Himiki Village. But at this moment, he was also facing Kaijima, which had turned its negotiation disadvantage into an advantage and was blessed by heaven, and he lacked confidence.

We can only apologize first and then continue the negotiations.

"...Of course I believe that Miss Kujo can handle this matter. But since the Tenryo Bugyo cannot work together, it is hard for me to entrust the security of Kaijima to you." Coral Palace Xinhai said.

"The same goes for Yashima Island!" Washizu followed.

Kujo Sara was unable to refute the harm posed by the corrupt leaders within the shogunate.

All I can say is: "Let's put this issue aside for now. After the Tianling Bughang has finished its rectification, we will discuss it in detail. Regarding the issue of merchants, I will also discuss it with the She Bughang so that both parties can participate..."

Find a staircase and quickly skip this matter.

Then, move on to the next topic.

heaven,

Jiang Yi and Ying were also discussing this.

"Orobas was indeed killed for this body. But I have granted permission to the people of the Coral Palace to continue offering sacrifices in the name of the Great God of the Sea so that it can enjoy sacrificial offerings." Ying looked at the Sea Priestess below.

"Now the Coral Palace destroyed the Narukami branch and rebelled against the shogunate. As the present-day miko of the Umiji Omikami, she must take responsibility."

This is the face of God.

"Since you are revered by them as the second-generation god of the sea, what do you think..." Ying said.

"As for the punishment, it should be. Haizhi Island should rebuild the Mingshen branch." Jiang Yi said, "As for the other punishments... let's discuss it..."

He felt that if he didn't discuss it beforehand, if Coral Palace Xinhai met General Thunder, he would most likely be struck by a sword.

In addition to the issue of punishment, the two also talked about the system.

Kaijima and Yamashima must nominally respect the shogunate and Inazuma as one country.

But they can govern themselves and implement a system different from that of Mingshen.

This is a concession.

For the moment the sea is only autonomous.

At the same time, the crossing of Bayun Island was allowed.

Otherwise, according to Ying's idea, the rebellious Coral Palace would not be let off so easily.
