"promise!"
Meng Yi quickly led his guards to subdue Zhao Gao.
Following closely behind.
Ying Zheng then returned to the altar for offering sacrifices to Heaven.
His eyes glanced at Li Lin, intentionally or unintentionally.
This didn't give Li Lin any strange thoughts. At this moment, he just hoped that the Fengchan ceremony would end as soon as possible. The sun was too strong and was making him uncomfortable.
Back on the stage, Ying Zheng thought about the recent events and suddenly had a good idea.
"Gentlemen, the prosperity of my Great Qin Dynasty is inseparable from your strong support. I toast you all!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The crowd cheered again, and one by one they returned to their seats, raising their wine cups to toast the First Emperor.
"Now that I am performing the Fengshan ceremony to appease Heaven, I wonder if any of you have any auspicious omens or elixirs to offer as tribute?"
"Your Majesty, your humble general Wang Ben presents a rare auspicious unicorn that appeared in Fengxian County six months ago. Please enjoy it carefully!"

Upon seeing this, Wang Ben couldn't help but let a slight smile curl up at the corners of his mouth.
My father always told me to learn his art of diplomacy, and it seems I've learned more than half of it today. With this auspicious omen, who here can compare to me?
Wang Jian, who had never bothered to discipline Wang Ben, couldn't help but laugh. Clearly, he was quite pleased with his son's perfectly timed flattery.
Although the First Emperor and others were extremely busy with state affairs,
However, I have never seen the mythical beast "Qilin" before, only knowing a little about it from ancient books.
Now that I see it, I am secretly amazed.
But at that moment, a lazy voice suddenly echoed in his mind: "Ugh, these people are so old-fashioned! Or are the First Emperor and his ilk just bumpkins? Isn't that just a leopard? A Qilin? Does our Chinese mythical beast, the Qilin, really look so shabby?"
