The Bad Girl's Quick Transmigration System: Traveling Back and Forth

Chapter 299: The Splendor of the World - Elena Temporarily Acting as the Holy Lady of the Roman Cath

After the Pope's assassination, how to deal with the Roman Catholic Church became a thorny dilemma for Shanshan and Elena. After careful consideration, Elena offered her opinion: For now, the Roman Catholic Church's existence should not be denied. After all, unlike Islam, the Roman Catholic Church's doctrines are relatively less stringent, making it difficult for ordinary people to fully integrate into state rule. However, the Roman Catholic Church's teachings are well suited to persuading the people to believe in God and accept their fate. This philosophy, thus, could help consolidate the Roman Catholic Church's long-term rule over the region. Therefore, it would be wise to wait until Han culture gradually takes root and becomes deeply ingrained in the local population before considering abolishing the Roman Catholic Church.

With this in mind, Yu Shanshan and Elena jointly planned and held a grand and solemn succession ceremony. During the ceremony, Elena seemed to be the reincarnation of the legendary goddess Athena, emanating an awe-inspiring radiance. Her otherworldly demeanor and wisdom earned her the respect of numerous believers, and she was hailed as the new generation of Saint. From then on, Elena shouldered even greater responsibilities—not only properly governing the people, but also guiding and educating the devout believers.

Thanks to Elena's wise and gentle measures, many people who had been forced to flee the war returned home. They felt the stability and hope brought by the new regime, believing they could live a peaceful and happy life. Elena, with her exceptional leadership and mastery of religious affairs, quickly restored social order and gradually prospered the economy. Yu Shanshan, in turn, enacted the national and people-benefiting policies of road construction, irrigation, and other projects passed down by Xiao Mingyue, and instructed local officials to strictly implement them. Soon, prosperity returned to over 13 million square kilometers of land, surpassing even its former glory.

In that ancient country ravaged by war, the land is devastated, the former prosperity has turned into ruins, the people are displaced, and the dark clouds of pain cover every inch of land.

Princess Elena, now a Saint and ruler of the Roman Curia, concurrently serving as Minister of Works and Left Prime Minister of the imperial court, was a leader who governed the country through culture, facing the people with a broad mind and a warm heart of compassion. This leader, filled with compassion, stepped forward in these difficult times. She understood that the wounds of war required wisdom and compassion to heal. Thus, she enacted a series of wise and gentle measures, spreading like a spring breeze to every corner. Those driven from their homes by the war, hearing of the new regime's benevolent deeds, felt a spark of hope, and they began returning home one after another, their eyes filled with longing for a better future.

Elena not only diligently sought to appease the people, but her mastery of religious affairs also contributed significantly to social stability. In a country characterized by diverse faiths, religion deeply influences people's spiritual lives. Leveraging her profound understanding of religious doctrine, Elena deftly resolved conflicts between different faiths, fostering harmonious coexistence among people of varying faiths. Thanks to her efforts, social order was quickly restored. The lively cries of vendors once again echoed in the markets, the streets were filled with laughter, and the economy gradually prospered amidst this stable environment.

Meanwhile, far away, Yu Shanshan shouldered a heavy responsibility. The policies Xiao Mingyue had passed down, such as road construction and irrigation projects that benefited the nation and its people, were like a timely rain, nourishing the parched land. Yu Shanshan, fully aware of the importance of these policies to national rejuvenation, dared not slack off. She immediately promulgated them and demanded strict implementation by local officials.

Thanks to the concerted efforts of officials at all levels, once-barren roads began to be widened and repaired, creating smooth thoroughfares connecting towns and villages. This not only facilitated travel for the people but also facilitated the flow of goods. The construction of irrigation facilities brought new life to the parched land, allowing crops to thrive and providing a solid material foundation for the people's lives.

As roads and irrigation systems continued to improve, Yu Shanshan decided to further develop education. She convened scholars from around the country to compile standardized textbooks covering science, history, culture, ethics, and more. Schools sprang up across the country, and the sounds of children reading aloud filled the streets.

Elena, in an effort to enhance religious culture, organized artists to create exquisite religious murals depicting God's love for humanity and his advocacy of goodness. She also held large-scale religious events, attracting people from surrounding areas to exchange ideas and learn, further expanding the local religious influence.

Seeing the remarkable results of education, Yu Shanshan then set about promoting commercial development. She established large markets, encouraged merchants from all over the country to trade, and established fair business rules to protect the rights of both buyers and sellers. A variety of novel goods converged here, making the city even more prosperous and bustling.

Elena and Yu Shanshan occasionally get together to exchange experiences. The two complement each other. Under their governance, this land that has experienced many vicissitudes of life has become more prosperous, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and a picture of prosperity slowly unfolds.

In just a few years, this vast land, covering over 13 million square kilometers, has undergone tremendous transformation. Gone are the days of decay, now permeated with prosperity. New buildings are rising, commercial activity is flourishing, and culture and the arts are flourishing in this thriving soil. The people live and work in peace and contentment, their faces filled with happy smiles.

Elena, Yu Shanshan, and Xiao Mingyue—they, like brilliant stars, shone with unique brilliance in the history of the world. In their own ways, they dedicated their wisdom and strength to their country and its people, writing a magnificent legend of governance, a story passed down through generations, inspiring future generations to tirelessly strive for the prosperity of the court and the happiness of the people.
