A young woman next to them, holding a child, had hope in her eyes: "Yes, the immortal has come, and will surely bless our child to grow up healthily, and will be able to contribute to the Qin Dynasty in the future."
"That's right. This year, our family harvested more food than in the past five years. We also have cotton-padded clothes and warm beds... All of this is thanks to the immortal."
A farmer in coarse cloth clenched his hands in excitement and said, "Yes, if it weren't for the immortal, my son would still be building the Great Wall at the border."
"I heard that immortals have the ability to reach the sky. Now we can live a better life!"
Li Rongrong stood on the altar, taking in all the gratitude and discussion. Although she had seen the sacrificial scene through the mirror before, it was completely different when she experienced it in person.
At this time, Qin Shihuang also walked down from the platform. He walked to Li Rongrong and bowed to her respectfully, his eyes full of gratitude and respect.
"My Immortal, you have given so much to my Great Qin, and I have no way to repay you. From now on, you will be the guardian immortal of my Great Qin, and you will be worshipped in the ancestral temple for generations."
Li Rongrong didn't expect this to happen, and quickly dodged the ancestor's gift.
She could accept gifts from others, as she had been pushed to this position. But if she accepted the gift from this old ancestor, it would shorten her life, okay?
"Your Majesty, you are welcome. This is what I should do. I am willing to protect the Great Qin with my immortal body, and write a glorious chapter for the Great Qin together with Your Majesty."
...
...
At this moment, the sky outside the palace changed again.
The dark clouds dispersed, and the sun shone on the earth again. A rainbow spanned the sky, as if it was painting a beautiful blueprint for the future of Daqin.
Everyone present was shocked by the sudden beauty. They all looked up, with indescribable excitement and awe in their hearts.
"Look, the immortal has appeared!" The common people of the Qin Dynasty pointed at the rainbow excitedly, their voices trembling, as if that was the most direct response from the gods.
Qin Shihuang looked at the gorgeous rainbow with a gleam in his eyes.
He turned to Li Rongrong again, his tone full of unquestionable firmness: "My Immortal, your arrival is a blessing for the Great Qin and all the people in the world. I will use all the power of the country to help you realize your wish and build the eternal foundation of the Great Qin."
Li Rongrong had mixed feelings. She was not originally from Daqin, but now she had the opportunity to come to Daqin, and by chance she became the "guardian immortal" of Daqin.
She must let the ancestors of the Qin Dynasty live a modern life.
"Your Majesty, although I was not born here, now that I am in this situation, I am willing to do my best to contribute to the prosperity and stability of Daqin."
"However, the real power comes from the hearts of the people. I hope Your Majesty can continue to sympathize with the people and implement benevolent policies so that we can achieve long-term peace and stability."
Qin Shi Huang was slightly startled when he heard this, then nodded in approval: "What the immortal said is very true. I will definitely keep it in mind, put the people first, and work together to create a prosperous Qin Dynasty."
As Qin Shihuang finished his words, the atmosphere around the altar became more harmonious and solemn.
The rainbow in the sky seemed to become more vivid and dazzling, as if crowning the dialogue between the monarch and his subjects.
Just then, a breeze blew by, bringing the fragrance of flowers and soil, making people feel relaxed and happy.
Li Rongrong closed her eyes and felt everything around her. These strange visions were all prepared by her, using a lot of scientific methods.
What about pinhole imaging, projectors, making rainbows in small areas, etc.
Fortunately, Daqin had just started nine-year compulsory education and there weren't so many physics and chemistry experts, otherwise she wouldn't be able to perform these little tricks.
After the ceremony, the crowd still did not disperse. Li Rongrong stood beside the altar, looking around calmly.
It seemed as if everything was an ant, not worthy of His attention.
Li Si and Chunyu Yue, who had been compiling textbooks together a few days ago, were already sweating profusely.
They originally thought that the person next to Prince Fusu was just a knowledgeable confidante, so they did not ask any more questions out of courtesy.
Who knew that she was the immortal who had been helping Daqin.
This level of horror is as outrageous as if Qin Shi Huang suddenly told them that they were also princes of the Qin Dynasty. It is hard to imagine.
The more they thought about it, the more the officials who had met Li Rongrong sweated.
Li Rongrong naturally had no idea what they were thinking, and was seriously playing the role of an immortal who was compassionate and indifferent.
At this moment, a voice as gentle as jade sounded in her ears: "Immortal, your actions today are truly admirable."
Li Rongrong turned around and saw Fusu walking towards her with a smile.
Although she didn't know what Fusu was doing, it had been a long time since she heard Fusu call her like that.
Perhaps it was because it was in public, or maybe Fusu wanted to try something new.
With an idea in mind, I immediately started to play with him.
She smiled slightly and said, "Master Fusu, you are too kind. I am just trying my best to do something for Daqin."
Fusu shook his head slightly and said, "No, your wisdom and courage have surpassed ordinary people. I have never seen someone like you who can protect the Qin Dynasty with the appearance of an immortal and sympathize with the people with the heart of a mortal."
Ahhh, this serious look really makes me want to pounce on him.
How could Fusu be so good at boasting, especially in public?
Li Rongrong felt shy, but her expression did not change. She said, "Master Fusu, you are a true gentleman. You care about the world and the people. Although I was not born here, I deeply admire your character."
The two men smiled at each other and stopped the business compliments that no one else could get into.
Fusu suddenly suggested: "My Immortal, why don't you let me take you to a place where you may see something interesting."
Li Rongrong asked curiously: "Oh? What place is it?"
Fusu smiled mysteriously and said, "You will know when you go there."
As he said this, he turned and walked towards the steam car parked nearby.
This is a steam car made by Gong Shujia combining modern technology. It looks simple yet modern.
Li Rongrong looked at the car with surprise and
She had seen Fusu drive a steam car before, but the style of this car was very similar to her modern one.
Fusu opened the car door for her and said with a smile, "Please come in, Immortal."
Li Rongrong smiled and nodded, then got into the car.
As the steam car started, it slowly started moving.
Compared to the speed of modern sports cars, she prefers this slow steam car.
It makes people think of a passage involuntarily.
In the past, transportation was slow, and a lifetime was only enough to love one person.
She turned her head to look at Fusu standing beside her. With the gentle breeze, bright moon, and graceful trees, he was the man she loved.
However, there were dark circles and fatigue in his eyes that could not be concealed. Fusu was able to develop the Qin Dynasty to this point in the shortest time, which really showed that he managed his time to the greatest extent.
She wished she could split one day into three days, but even so, he could always find time to accompany her.
Thinking of this, Li Rongrong couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth, and her heart felt a tingling pain in her heart.
Fusu, who was operating a slow steam car beside her, saw her out of the corner of his eye and smiled as well.
