When Li Rongrong heard the good news brought by Fusu, a hint of surprise and emotion flashed in her eyes.
"Fusu! You actually did something great without making any noise."
"I originally promised you that I would make all the people of Qin worship you. How can I ignore your contribution to Qin just because of the relationship between us?" Fusu chuckled and was sincerely grateful to Li Rongrong in his heart.
Without her, the Qin Dynasty would have certainly ended up like that in history.
"Rongrong, you don't have to be polite to me. The enfeoffment ceremony will be held in a few days, and I will come to take you to the palace in person."
"Okay, let me think about it..." Li Rongrong agreed verbally, thinking in her mind how she should appear that day.
Although she is not an immortal in name only, she still has to pretend when it is time to do so.
…
Time is the least valuable thing, and the day of becoming an immortal will soon arrive.
The sun shines all over the earth, and there is peace inside and outside Xianyang city.
...
...
Li Rongrong was dressed in elaborate and gorgeous clothes, with fluttering sleeves, like a fairy descending from the earth. Her hair was carefully braided into a complicated bun, dotted with pearls and gems, adding a bit of nobility and mystery.
Fusu had been waiting outside the door for a long time. When he saw Li Rongrong coming out, his eyes lit up and he exclaimed sincerely: "Rongrong, you are so beautiful today."
The two of them rode in a gorgeous carriage and slowly drove towards the Xianyang Palace.
Along the way, the common people stopped to watch and talk about it, all of them were full of curiosity and admiration for the immortal who was about to appear.
After arriving at the Xianyang Palace, Li Rongrong was led into a magnificently decorated palace.
This is where the enfeoffment ceremony was held. In the center of the palace there was a high platform with a golden altar on which were placed the tablets of the ancestors of the Qin Dynasty and the jade seal symbolizing the imperial power.
Various precious sacrificial items are placed around, and the air is filled with a faint fragrance.
With the sound of a melodious bell, the ceremony officially began.
Qin Shihuang was wearing a black dragon robe and sitting on a high platform, looking majestic and solemn.
He stood up slowly, his eyes swept across everyone present, finally stopping on Li Rongrong, a hint of admiration and expectation flashed in his eyes.
"Today, I am holding a ceremony to confer immortals here, with the aim of having the immortals worship the Great Qin. I will sculpt the immortals into a Great Qin ancestral temple to be worshipped by generations." Qin Shihuang's voice was deep and powerful, echoing in the palace.
After Qin Shihuang finished speaking, the entire palace fell into solemnity.
He walked down the platform slowly with steady steps, and every step seemed to carry the majesty and power of an emperor.
He walked to the altar, gently stroked the ancestral tablet with his hands, his eyes shining with reverence for his ancestors and expectations for the future.
"Since I ascended the throne, I have been seeking the art of immortality, hoping that the Great Qin could last for thousands of years and last forever. Today, I am fortunate to have the help of the immortal Li Rongrong. This is a blessing for the Great Qin and for me as well."
Qin Shihuang's voice was deep and magnetic, and his words seemed to have a kind of magic that made everyone present feel excited.
As Qin Shi Huang finished his words, a melodious music sounded. It was the most solemn sacrificial music in the Qin court.
Amid the music, a group of palace maids dressed in gorgeous costumes slowly walked into the palace, holding various sacrificial items in their hands and walking in light and orderly steps.
They placed the sacrificial items around the altar, each of which shone brightly, as if it was a symbol of the prosperity of the Qin Dynasty.
Qin Shihuang stood on the platform again, holding a long sword in his hand, the sword blade flashing with cold light. It was the weapon he used to conquer the world and also the symbol of his power.
He raised his sword high, with the tip of the sword pointing straight to the sky, as if to cut through the sky and resonate with heaven and earth.
"In the name of the Son of Heaven, I offer sacrifices to the heaven and earth and our ancestors. May heaven and earth protect our Great Qin, and may our ancestors bless our descendants." Qin Shihuang's voice echoed in the palace, and every word he said was filled with strength and determination.
He swung his sword, and the sword light was like a dragon, cutting through the air, as if he was talking to the heaven and earth, conveying the wishes and hopes of the Qin Dynasty.
At this moment, the sky outside the palace suddenly changed.
The originally clear sky turned gloomy, covered with dark clouds and roaring thunder.
But what was surprising was that these dark clouds did not bring wind and rain, but instead condensed into mysterious patterns, as if the gods between heaven and earth were watching this sacrificial ceremony.
The people in the palace looked up at the sky, their eyes filled with wonder and awe.
They knew that this was the response of heaven and earth to the Qin Dynasty, and an acknowledgement and blessing of Qin Shihuang's sacrifice.
At this moment, a bright light flashed across the sky, and just as everyone closed their eyes, a woman in a gorgeous fairy dress slowly walked out of the light. She was Li Rongrong.
Li Rongrong's appearance seemed to brighten up the entire palace.
The fairy dress she wore was glittering and colorful, as if it was woven from clouds in the sky. Her hair flowed down like a waterfall, and each strand exuded a faint luster.
Her face was extremely beautiful and divine, as if she was a fairy descending from the heavens, making everyone present feel fascinated.
She took lotus steps, and each step seemed to be on the clouds, light and graceful.
There was a faint fragrance emanating from her body, which was the scent of immortals, and it made people feel relaxed and happy when they smelled it.
Li Rongrong walked to the altar, raised her hands lightly, palms facing upward, as if receiving spiritual power from heaven and earth. Her eyes were tightly closed, with a pious and sacred expression on her face.
As she moved, the air around her began to become softer, as if even time had stopped at this moment.
At this moment, the jade seal on the altar suddenly emitted a dazzling light.
In the light, the jade seal slowly rose and hovered in the air, as if to express respect and welcome to Li Rongrong.
Li Rongrong opened her eyes, and there was a determined light in her eyes.
She gently stretched out her hand, and the jade seal automatically flew into her palm. She held the jade seal tightly, as if she was receiving the inheritance and blessing of the Qin imperial power.
"I am Li Rongrong. I wish to protect Daqin with my immortal body. I wish Daqin will prosper and last forever."
Li Rongrong's voice was clear and pleasant, but full of strength and determination. Her words seemed to have a kind of magic, making everyone present feel excited, as if they saw the glory and hope of the future of Daqin.
As Li Rongrong finished speaking, the atmosphere in the palace reached a climax.
I originally thought that the immortal in the legend was just a trickster, but now I couldn't help but kneel down on the ground.
Not to mention the other people who were already convinced, they expressed their respect and gratitude to Li Rongrong.
They knew that with Li Rongrong's help, Daqin's future would be even better.
After the people knelt down one after another, their faces were filled with excitement and awe. They began to talk in a low voice, and their voices were filled with endless gratitude and expectations for Li Rongrong.
An elderly man raised his head tremblingly, tears glistening in his eyes: "I have lived to such an old age, and today I finally saw the immortal appear with my own eyes. I have no regrets in this life! With the protection of this immortal, our Great Qin will surely be able to enjoy peace and prosperity."
