The Moon Palace and Laurel were created using the Director section of the All-Star System, combining special effects skills with previously purchased illusion skills to achieve this effect.
Ling Xiao had carefully considered the identity of Chang Xi, the Moon Goddess. It not only fit the requirements of the mission in the arts but also possessed a certain degree of fame.
The sun and the moon shine together, and since ancient times, they have occupied an extremely high position in human civilization.
This noble and potentially prestigious identity ensures that Ling Xiao can change her story and stance at any time during her next encounter with King Ying Zheng of Qin, and also makes it easier to alter the script!
Yes, script changes. In Ling Xiao's words, which memorable films or dramas haven't had their scripts changed?
Her grasp of people's hearts isn't top-notch, at least not as good as her former teammates.
Ling Xiao must leave himself some leeway in order to deal with Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of a unified China, with ease.
Ling Xiao sat on a tall tree branch by the river, gazing at the military camp not far away, and smiled slightly excitedly at the system:
"Wouldn't it be thrilling to perform a play in front of China's first emperor that would never be exposed?"
System: A lazy system who's currently introverted, doesn't want any excitement, and just wants to complete tasks peacefully.
…………………………
In the days that followed, Ling Xiao, with the system at her back, put on a luxurious version of wilderness survival, monitoring Wang Ben like a psychopath every day.
This continued until the army entered Xianyang.
Ever since he had that dream, Wang Ben has been completely distracted, spending his days looking at it over and over whenever he has nothing to do.
The writing on his palm could not be washed away, not even with water or expensive washing spices, and it did not fade in the slightest.
In addition, he interrogated the guards outside the military tent that day and confirmed that no one had entered or left the tent.
Wang Ben couldn't help but believe that he had indeed run into the Moon Goddess Chang Xi.
My mouth tasted bitter and indescribable.
The moon goddess is asking too much of people.
It was astonishing that He directly informed him that he needed to make a treaty with the King. Did He not consider that Wang Ben himself was a general of Qin, and how could he be qualified to make a treaty on behalf of the King?
Perhaps it wasn't unexpected, Wang Ben thought to himself, "It's just that immortals don't care about the joys and sorrows of mortals, they only care about whether their goals have been achieved."
However, Wang Ben had no choice but to report that the Moon Goddess had already appointed the king to make a covenant with her.
Otherwise, well, when the Moon Goddess comes to demand the fulfillment of the agreement, he'll lose his life.
Suddenly being assigned a dangerous task that could cost him his life, anyone would feel resentful, and Wang Ben was particularly resentful.
He carried this feeling throughout the awards ceremony and the celebratory banquet; outwardly he smiled, but inwardly he was cursing.
It wasn't until King Zheng of Qin met privately with several important ministers that Wang Ben suddenly grabbed his head and knelt on one knee.
"Your Majesty, I am guilty."
Surprisingly, the other officials showed no surprise when he knelt down.
Wang Jian, Wang Ben's father, was even more pleased, because although the war against Wei was a great victory, the diversion of water to flood Daliang had caused countless deaths and injuries among the people.
During the pre-Qin period, people valued harmony with nature, and such behavior by military generals was considered too bloody, which drew criticism from many.
The son was fortunate not to be blinded by his achievements and knew that admitting his fault was the best course of action.
King Zheng of Qin was at the height of his power and prestige, and he didn't take it seriously when his beloved general suddenly apologized.
“What crime have you committed, my dear minister? Wei and Qin are enemies, not friends. This is a war of annihilation. If you hesitate and have too many concerns, I will hold you accountable.”
As he spoke, he looked at Wang Ben with encouraging and appreciative eyes, "Minister Wang has made a great contribution!"
Wang Ben almost shed tears. The king had no idea why he was crying. Once he made the decision to flood Daliang, he had never regretted it.
Most importantly, the Moon Goddess Changxi is utterly inhuman!
Okay, He wasn't human to begin with.
"That's not what I meant," Wang Ben said solemnly, kneeling down on both knees.
"On my way to Xianyang, I suddenly dreamt that I was walking on white clouds, hearing celestial music, and actually entered a magnificent palace in the moonlight—"
He finally couldn't help but let his eyes redden slightly, seemingly filled with regret. "In the Moon Palace, the goddess Chang Xi danced, and I was captivated by her. After Chang Xi finished dancing, she actually told me some news."
"Wait, Wang Qing, are you sure you're not talking nonsense?"
Ying Zheng's expression was indifferent, and his deep gaze, carrying the pressure of an emperor, was fixed on Wang Ben.
"Your subject dares not speak recklessly," Wang Ben continued.
"The Moon Goddess said that for the past hundred years she has been in charge of the affairs of demons and evil gods in the human world, and that the Qin Kingdom will unify the world within ten years. Therefore, she is preparing to make a pact with the King to help the Moon Goddess drive away the demons and evil gods."
"How can I believe your empty words, Wang Qing?"
That being said, when Ying Zheng heard that the Qin state had unified the world in ten years, even his breath quickened for a second.
Furthermore, if it truly is the Moon Goddess descending to earth, then what about that unformed thought in his mind...?
Mentioning this, Wang Ben raised his chin with a smirk, "There is still evidence."
With his palm open, several large characters came into view. Li Si's eyesight was not very good, and he had to stretch his neck forward to see them clearly.
He chuckled inwardly, thinking, "What kind of evidence is this, these few words?" He glanced at the old general Wang Jian beside him, thinking, "Why does the Wang family always like to smear themselves? Their tricks are quite novel."
The next second, Wang Ben told the group that the handwriting had suddenly appeared after he woke up that day, and that it had been confirmed that it was not done by anyone around him.
"...it hasn't faded at all in over ten days," Wang Ben said confidently.
Silence reigned all around, as everyone waited for Ying Zheng to speak.
A moment later, he said, "If what you say is true, Lord Wang, the Moon Goddess Changxi has already decided to make a pact with me to jointly subdue the demons and evil gods of the mortal realm."
When Ying Zheng spoke, he glanced at Wang Ben indifferently, making Wang Ben's head almost droop down to his crotch, because he didn't know when he had made a pact with the Moon Goddess.
Although he only believed four-tenths of the Wang family's loyalty, it was only because of their loyalty.
Ying Zheng also decided to be on high alert. Fortunately, all his capable ministers were present, and they prepared to discuss how to receive the Moon Goddess Chang Xi.
Li Si was eager to try and was about to quote classical texts when Wang Ben interrupted him again:
"Your Majesty, I actually have another crime to commit."
Wang Jian was thinking that he should have strangled the boy as soon as he was born, so that he wouldn't harm the Wang family now.
Ying Zheng, however, didn't care and gestured for him to continue.
"I flooded the Great Liang. According to the Moon Goddess Changxi, I accidentally broke a corner of the seal of the ancient evil god Xiangliu, so—"
Wang Ben glanced hesitantly at his king and said cautiously, "The Moon Goddess Changxi may be coming to see Your Majesty soon."
