Chapter 56: Unknown Things Under the Sea

Faced with this almost miraculous scene, Ying Zheng was shocked.

Subconsciously, the words spoken by that person from later generations emerged in his mind.

Created the world, created humans, created the moon, and brought down flood disasters...

The Eternal God...

At this moment, his heart was filled with doubts. Even he himself was not sure whether believed in the existence of God or not. Perhaps he was half-believing and half-doubting...

Just as he was shocked, Li Si also reacted.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!" Li Si shouted happily, "Your Majesty is blessed by God!"

Others also reacted quickly and followed suit to flatter him.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty..."

Deafening cheers of congratulations echoed across the mountain peaks.

No matter if this was a coincidence or a truly auspicious omen, it would be right to congratulate His Majesty, the ministers thought as they shouted.

Of course, they were still very surprised and suspicious about this auspicious sign, and some even thought it was a miracle.

Hearing the loud shouts in his ears, Ying Zheng came back to his senses, and facing the congratulations from his ministers, a smile appeared on his face.

Especially since this might be a miracle, he felt even better.

Qin Shi Huang followed his ministers' words and laughed arrogantly.

"I am appointed by heaven!"

Li Si quickly echoed, "Your Majesty is the one who has been chosen by Heaven. Your Majesty is the orthodox one!"

Others quickly followed suit and shouted, "Your Majesty is the one who has been chosen by Heaven. Your Majesty is the orthodox one!"

Ying Zheng was in a good mood.

As they shouted, netizens also started discussing in surprise.

"Brother Zheng said that we are appointed by heaven. Why does this sentence sound so familiar?"

"Mandated by Heaven, May You Live Long and Prosper? The words engraved on the Imperial Seal and the Heshi Bi?"

"Fuck!"

Netizens were shocked.

Some people even said, "Could it be that this is how the words on the imperial seal came about?"

After these words were spoken, a group of netizens were surprised again.

When they mentioned the imperial seal, they thought of something.

The familiar figure Brave Niu Niu said, "The Imperial Seal, or simply the Imperial Seal, was carved by Li Si, the Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty, at the order of the First Emperor, using the Heshi Bi. It is the proof of the legitimacy of the emperors of all dynasties in China."

"It is four inches in diameter, with five dragons intertwined on the top. On the front is engraved the eight characters of 'Received the Mandate from Heaven, Long Live and Prosper' written by Li Si, as a token of 'the imperial power is granted by heaven, and is legitimate and orthodox.'"

"After the Qin Dynasty, successive emperors have regarded this seal as a symbol of authority, treating it like a treasure and a national treasure!"

"They think that if they get it, it means they are appointed by heaven, and if they don't, it means their luck has run out. Anyone who ascends the throne but doesn't have the imperial seal will be ridiculed as a fake emperor."

After these words were spoken, netizens took a deep breath when they connected the matter with the current situation.

Brave Niu Niu continued, "However, the Imperial Seal should have appeared earlier. But why can the Imperial Seal represent the mandate from heaven..."

"Could it be that it is related to the auspicious celestial phenomena at the moment?"

"Does it represent the approval of Heaven?"

Although he said this, some netizens were still shocked and thought it was possible.

Su Qi, who was peeking at the screen, was speechless again.

It took some time, and with the end of the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, Ying Zheng went down the mountain with his ministers in a happy mood.

But just when he was in a good mood, before the rain had gone far, a heavy rainstorm suddenly came.

boom!

Thunder and lightning.

Everyone was horrified, especially when someone said that Mount Tai could have a flash flood that could wash away people and animals.

The wind is howling.

Woohoo~

Ying Zheng quickly got off the carriage and hid under a big pine tree with his men.

The downpour was slightly blocked by the treetops, and it eased his pain.

However , everyone, including him, was confused.

Why does it suddenly rain heavily?

If it were any other time, it would be nothing, but at this moment, not long after the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the sky ended, the meaning was different.

Is God to blame?

Li Si, who was soaking wet, remembered the original official in charge of sacrifices who had expressed his opposition to building the road to Mount Tai.

He told Li Si that the reason why there was no road on Mount Tai was simple: the emperors of all dynasties who went up the mountain to pay homage would choose to walk to show their respect to the Emperor of Heaven. They would never even think of taking a car, which was a blasphemous act to God...

"Is it possible that the heavens are blaming me..."

After he told Ying Zheng what had happened, Ying Zheng looked up at the sky which was covered with dark clouds, strong winds and heavy rain, and his happy heart was suddenly overshadowed.

He was puzzled here, and netizens were also puzzled.

"According to the Records of the Grand Historian, when Qin Shi Huang finished his sacrifice at the top of the mountain and was coming down, there was indeed a sudden strong wind and heavy rain..."

“Is this a natural phenomenon?”

One netizen was unsure, "The climate change on Mount Tai is abnormal, so it should be normal to have heavy rains?"

They wanted to analyze it from a scientific perspective, but faced with the presence of God, they were uncertain for a moment.

Was this really the hand of God?

If it was really God's hand...

Looking at the weather with dark clouds, howling winds and heavy rain, they couldn't help but sigh.

Control the weather and bring down heavy rain?

Is this the power of God?

The elites who recorded intelligence in various countries hesitated and wrote another line.

god

Suspected to have the ability to control the weather at will...

Su Qi naturally noticed what the netizens said and couldn't help but look innocent.

"what did I do?"

“Is it a sin to be a bystander?”

Faced with the blame that fell on him inexplicably, Su Qi claimed his innocence.

The wind and rain came and went away quickly, and they died down in just half an hour, fully demonstrating the unpredictable weather in Mount Tai.

However, Su Qi knew that it was normal weather, but Li Si and others were not clear about it and were somewhat suspicious.

For a moment, the good mood that had been caused by the auspicious sign before was suddenly dissipated.

After conferring the title of Fifth Officer on Song Shu for his meritorious service in protecting the emperor, Ying Zheng, after a little tidying up, returned to his base in embarrassment with his civil and military officials.

The Confucian scholars of Qi and Lu naturally noticed Ying Zheng and others who returned in embarrassment.

On the surface, nothing happened, but in private they all started to laugh at him.

There were even rumors that Qin Shihuang's Fengshan ceremony was blocked by heavy rain and he did not receive the approval of heaven!

"Fuck, these people!"

"nonsense!"

Netizens were extremely angry when they saw the mocking Confucian scholars in the video.

Just then, a prompt sounded.

[Time passes... Twenty-three days pass in the blink of an eye...]

The picture flashed by quickly and then stopped on a deep blue ocean.

Countless netizens wondered why the camera shifted to this place.

Then it wasn't long before they were shocked.

In the picture, there was only an area where the sea water was surging.
