Prime Minister Wei, do you remember killing the Dragon King of Jinghe in your dream?
After hearing this sentence, Lone Star was stunned and remembered the fragments of Journey to the West:
Chang'an City suffered from drought repeatedly. The Dragon King of Jinghe turned into a showman to bet with a diviner. In order to win this bet, after accepting the imperial edict of the Jade Emperor, he deliberately changed the timing and number of rain drops.
After the Jade Emperor discovered it, he asked Wei Zheng, the "Wuqu Star", to cut the dragon. The Dragon King of Jinghe asked Li Shimin for help in his dream. Li Shimin and Wei Zheng played a game of chess together to stabilize Wei Zheng. Unexpectedly, Wei Zheng dozed off and killed the Dragon King of Jinghe in his dream.
In the game, there is also a rain, a black rainstorm. Is it possible to say that the rainstorm is related to this fairy story?
Lonely Star was stunned and interrupted: "When was the Dragon King of Jinghe killed? Was it two days ago, before the game maintenance?"
The fish demon did not answer Lonely Star's question and lowered its head.
Wei Zheng, however, stared blankly, as if he knew something about it, and asked, "You...... Are a demon in the Jing River. What's your relationship with the Dragon King of the Jing River?"
"I am the concubine of the Dragon King of Jinghe River, and I have been favored by the Dragon King for many times. Prime Minister Wei, you killed our Dragon King, and other demons dare not take revenge on you. I must let you pay for your life!" The fish demon angrily said with a hoarse female voice.
"......" Wei Zheng was shocked and stared back two steps.
At this time, Emperor Taizong stroked his beard and said, "What does it have to do with me if you want to kill Wei Zheng? There is a clear distinction between gratitude and resentment. I didn't kill the Dragon King of Jinghe. Why did you attack the dragon chariot I was riding on?"
The fish demon's hands were held back by the sword guard. He wanted to attack Emperor Taizong, but was held down by the sword guard: "Of course you have a relationship! Before the dragon king was beheaded, he dragged a dream to you and asked you to intercede for him, but as the king of the country, you broke your promise. Our dragon king was killed by the Prime Minister Wei."
After hearing this, Emperor Taizong glanced at Wei Zheng and said, "I didn't break my promise and helped the Dragon King of the Jinghe River. But that was the will of the Jade Emperor. When the Dragon King of the Jinghe River disobeyed the divine order and tampered with the rain, it was no wonder that the Prime Minister of Wei killed him."
At this time, Wei Zheng hurried forward and said to the fish demon: "Your majesty is the king of a country and will never renege on his promise. It's all because of the poor minister. Your majesty played chess with him to delay the time of killing the dragon king. He dozed off on the way and killed the dragon king in his dream. Please don't blame your majesty. It's because of the poor minister!"
The fish demon refused to listen and said angrily, "The Dragon King of Jinghe died with resentment."
Seeing that the fish demon was murderous, Emperor Taizong stopped talking. He stroked the dragon sleeve angrily and turned around with his back and hands: "In that case, let's call it a day. Wei Zheng."
"The minister is here." Wei Zheng followed Tang Taizong. Even if he could not see him with his back to him, he bowed humbly to the emperor from his heart.
"It's an unforgivable crime to attack the monarch! We are a big Tang Dynasty and a rich world. If our neighbors know that an assassin killed the monarch, but the monarch let the assassin go, where is Wang Wei?" Tang Taizong said with a little anger.
"..." Wei Zheng must have vaguely guessed what order the emperor was going to give, and his face was a little impatient.
"Kill the assassin." Tang Taizong turned his back and shook the dragon sleeve. Wang Wei released the assassin to shock everyone.
Wei Zheng took a deep breath, and wanted to plead with him, saying that the killing of the Dragon King in Jinghe had something to do with both of us, so let go of the concubine of the Dragon King in Jinghe? But the king's order must not be violated.
At ordinary times, he always advised the emperor not to do things that hurt the people of the world. But this time, after weighing the advantages and disadvantages, he did not dare to persuade him. If he did not kill the assassin, if the assassin attacked the monarch one day, the monarch's life would be in jeopardy.
This is a matter concerning the safety of the monarch's life. It should not be careless.
After thinking, Wei Zheng nodded, pushed the dragon slaying sword out of the scabbard three inches with his thumb, and stared at the fish demon.
When the fish demon heard that the emperor wanted to kill it, it also became frightened.
Fear turned into anger, and the fish demon roared: "After the death of the Dragon King of Jinghe River, it rained black overnight in Chang'an City, and then there was a famine in the whole city, and the food of the people disappeared. It must have nothing to do with the ghost of the Dragon King of Jinghe River. The emperor, if you kill me and don't kill Wei Zheng to appease the anger of the Dragon King of Jinghe River, you will wait for the people of the whole city to die of famine!"
Wei Zheng was a little surprised. After thinking for a while, he thought it was reasonable, so he looked at the monarch in fear.
Finally, Emperor Taizong turned around and instead of looking at Wei Zheng, who was afraid of him, he stared at the fish demon's face and said, "Absurd! I will not kill Wei Zheng. With a bronze mirror, you can straighten your clothes; with ancient history as a mirror, you can know the ups and downs; with people as a mirror, you can see the gains and losses. I often use this way to prevent myself from making mistakes, but if I kill Wei Zheng, I will lose a mirror. "
"Your Majesty..." Wei Zheng was shocked and stared at his majesty's face with wet eyes.
Emperor Taizong, the son of Heaven, did not want to say more provocative words. He looked at Wei Zheng with dignity and said, "Prime Minister, what are you waiting for? Kill it quickly."
"Yes." Wei Zheng quickly nodded.
When eight guards with swords pressed the fish demon on the floor, the fish demon raised its head and shouted: "Dragon King, you can see it, go on harming Chang'an City, let the people of Chang'an City starve to death! Let the monarch regret that the world he ruled has become such a miserable situation!"
In order to prevent the fish demon from talking nonsense, a red blade cut the head of the fish demon, and the last 50 points of blood of the fish demon were cleared, which turned into a data stream and disappeared into the sky.
Wei Zheng sighed and put away the dragon slaying knife. At first, he killed the King of Jinghe with this knife. Now, he uses this knife to kill his concubine. This knife is stained with blood, making him full of guilt.
Tang Taizong, however, looked at the poor street that had lost its former demeanor and silently read: "As the king of the world, I will not see the people starve to death. In a few days, I will move the capital to Luoyang and take the people of Chang'an City with me..."
"It was the later Tang Dynasty that moved its capital to Luoyang. I think it would be better for you to stay in Chang'an City as a former Tang Dynasty."
Hearing this, Emperor Taizong turned around doubtfully. Seeing that it was a lone star, he did not ask about the crime of disrespect to the king. He said, "What's that? Just now you heard that the Dragon King of Jinghe River was beheaded by the Prime Minister of Wei. That day, the bloody head of the Dragon King appeared in the Daming Palace. Now Chang'an City has become like this. It must be the ghost of the Dragon King of Jinghe River."
"Not necessarily. Maybe Dragon Space lost the golden bead?"
Lone Star thought that this task was not related to the gold bead, so he took the gold bead from the item list and gave Tang Taizong a look. However, Tang Taizong ignored it and seemed to think it was an ordinary gold bead.
"What is a gold bead? Are you going to pay tribute to me? I don't like gold." Tang Taizong threw the SR weapon in his hand, the back tooth frost blade.
The system prompts the sound: "Congratulations on getting the weapon SR Back Tooth Frost Blade presented by the emperor. The task rewards presented by the emperor are top products, please keep them properly. The attached task reward is 500 gold coins."
A panel pops up in front of you, 500 gold coins flow into the item list, and the remaining gold coins become 1000.
The "Ding" system beeps again: "Congratulations! You and your Dragon Lady have been upgraded to Level 6, with maximum HP+100 and maximum attack power+10."
When looking at Emperor Taizong again, he said, "You have helped a lot to stop the assassins. I happen to have a weapon on my hand, so I will give it to you as a reward."
Later, Emperor Taizong, with his hands behind his back, and Wei Zheng led the crowd in the distance. Their voices of dialogue came from afar:
"Your Majesty, how can you condescend to your dragon body? I will send someone into the palace to take out another dragon chariot to pick you up!"
"No, I also have a schedule. Hurry back to the palace and discuss with the ministers the plan to move the capital to Luoyang."
