Fairy Dragon Maiden

Chapter 56 The Death of the Fish Demon
Prime Minister Wei, do you remember beheading our Jinghe Dragon King in your dream?
After hearing this sentence, Lone Star was stunned, and remembered a fragment from "Journey to the West":

The city of Chang'an suffered from frequent droughts, and the Dragon King of Jinghe turned into a scholar to make a bet with a fortune teller. In order to win the bet, after accepting the imperial decree of the Jade Emperor, he deliberately changed the timing and number of rains.

After the Jade Emperor found out, he asked Wei Zheng, the "star of martial arts" to kill 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, trying to stabilize Wei Zheng, but Wei Zheng dozed off and swung his sword to kill the Dragon King of Jinghe in his dream.

In the game, it also rained, a heavy black rainstorm. Could it be that the rainstorm is related to this fairy tale?

Gu Xing was slightly stunned, and interjected to ask, "When was the Dragon King of Jinghe killed? Was it two days ago, before the game was maintained?"

The fish demon didn't answer Lone Star's question, but lowered his head.

Wei Zheng, on the other hand, stared wide-eyed in a daze, as if he understood the details, and asked, "You... are actually a monster in the Jing River. What is your relationship with the Dragon King of Jing River?"

"I am the concubine of the Dragon King of Jinghe, and I have been favored by the Dragon King many times. Prime Minister Wei, you killed our Dragon King, and other monsters dare not take revenge on you. I will make you pay for it!" The hoarse female voice said angrily.

"..." Wei Zheng was startled, his eyes widened and he took two steps back.

At this time, Tang Taizong stroked his beard and said, "What does it have to do with me if you want to kill Wei Zheng? The grievances and grievances are clear. I didn't kill you Jinghe Dragon King. Why did you attack the dragon chariot I was riding in?"

The hands of the fish demon were held back by the guards with knives, and they wanted to rush up to attack Tang Taizong, but they were suppressed by the guards with knives: "Of course you have something to do with it! Before the Dragon King was beheaded, there was a dream for you, and I asked you to do it for him." Pleading, but as the king of a country, you broke your promise, and our Dragon King was still killed by Prime Minister Wei."

Tang Taizong listened, glanced at Wei Zheng, and said: "I never broke my promise, and I helped the Dragon King of Jinghe. But that was the order of the Jade Emperor. No wonder the Dragon King of Jinghe was slaughtered by Prime Minister Wei when he disobeyed the god's decree and changed the rain without authorization." who."

At this time, Wei Zheng hurried forward and said to the fish demon: "Your Majesty is the king of a country, and he will never break his promise. It's all because of the bad ministers. His Majesty played chess with the ministers to delay the time to kill the Dragon King. The ministers played chess on the way." I fell asleep and killed the Dragon King in my dream. Please don't blame Your Majesty, it's for this humble minister!"

The fish demon didn't listen, and resentfully said: "Jinghe Dragon King died with resentment."

Seeing the murderous look of the fish demon, Tang Taizong stopped talking, stroked his dragon sleeves angrily, and turned around with his hands behind his back: "If that's the case, it's fine. Wei Zheng."

"My humble minister is here." Wei Zheng followed Tang Taizong, even though Tang Taizong turned his back to him and couldn't see him, he bowed humbly to the emperor from the bottom of his heart.

"The crime of attacking the monarch is unforgivable! I am a majestic Tang Dynasty, and the world is rich. If the neighboring small barbarian country knows that there are assassins who kill the monarch, but the monarch lets the assassin go, what is the king's prestige?" Tang Taizong said with a little anger.

"..." Wei Zheng's body was fixed, he had already vaguely guessed what order the emperor was going to issue, and his face was a bit unbearable.

"Kill that assassin." With his back turned, Tang Taizong shook his dragon sleeves, and Wang Wei was released to shock everyone.

Wei Zheng took a deep breath, and wanted to intercede, seeing that the beheading of the Dragon King of Jinghe was related to the two of us, so why not let the concubine of the Dragon King of Jinghe go?But the king's order cannot be violated.

Usually, he always advises the emperor not to do things that hurt the people of the world, but this time, he weighed the pros and cons, but he dared not persuade him. If the assassin is not killed, if the assassin comes back to attack the monarch in the future, then the monarch's life will be destroyed. Security is at stake.

This is a matter of the life and safety of the monarch, and it cannot be sloppy.

After thinking about it, Wei Zheng nodded, and with his thumb, he pushed the dragon-slaying sword out of the scabbard three inches, and stared at the fish demon.

When the fish demon heard the emperor said that he would kill it, it also became frightened.

Fear turned into anger, and the fish demon roared angrily: "After the death of the Dragon King of Jinghe, black rain fell overnight in Chang'an City, and then there was a famine in the city, and the people's food disappeared. It must have nothing to do with the ghost of the Dragon King of Jinghe. Your Majesty , if you kill me, if you don’t kill Wei Zheng to appease the Dragon King of Jinghe, you will wait for the whole city to starve to death!”

Wei Zheng was a little surprised. After thinking about it for a while, he felt that it made sense, so he looked at the monarch in fear.

Tang Taizong finally turned around, instead of looking at the frightened Wei Zheng, he stared at the fish monster's face and said, "Absurd! I will not kill Wei Zheng. You can straighten your clothes with a bronze mirror; use ancient history as a mirror, you can Know the ups and downs; use people as a mirror, you can see the gains and losses. I often use this method to prevent myself from making mistakes, but killing Wei Zheng, I will lose a mirror."

"Your Majesty..." Wei Zheng was startled, staring at His Majesty's face, his eyes were moist.

Tang Taizong was the son of destiny, and he didn't want to say anything more sensational. He looked at Wei Zheng majesticly and said, "Prime Minister, what are you waiting for, kill it quickly."

"Yes." Wei Zheng nodded quickly.

When the eight guards with knives pressed the fish demon on the floor, the fish demon raised its head in shock and shouted: "Dragon King, you have seen it too, continue to harm Chang'an City and let the people of Chang'an City starve to death! Let this monarch regret it!" The world he ruled has turned into this miserable state!"

In order to prevent the fish demon from continuing to talk nonsense, a red blade cut the head of the fish demon, and the last 50 blood points of the fish demon were emptied, turned into data streams and disappeared into the sky.

Wei Zheng sighed and put away the Dragon Slaying Knife. He used this knife to kill Jinghe Dragon King, and now he used this knife to kill Jinghe Dragon King's concubine. This knife was covered with blood, making him full of blood. guilt.

Tang Taizong, on the other hand, showed the vicissitudes of life, looked at the poor street that had lost its former style, and said silently: "As the king of the world, I will not watch the people starve to death. Let's move the capital to Luoyang in a few days. The people of Chang'an City together..."

"Moving the capital to Luoyang is a matter of the later Tang Dynasty. I think it's better to stay in Chang'an City if you are a former Tang Dynasty."

Hearing this, Tang Taizong turned around suspiciously. Seeing that it was Lone Star, he did not ask about the crime of disrespect to the king, but asked, "Why did you say that? You heard it just now. The Dragon King of Jinghe was beheaded by Prime Minister Wei in a dream That day, the bloody head of the Dragon King appeared in the Daming Palace. Chang’an City has become like this, and it must be the ghost of the Jinghe Dragon King.”

"Not necessarily, it is also possible that Long Shikong lost the golden bead?"

Gu Xing thought to himself that this mission didn't seem to be related to the gold beads, so he took out the gold beads from the inventory and showed Tang Taizong a look, but Tang Taizong dismissed them as if he thought they were ordinary gold beads .

"What are gold beads? Are you going to give them to me as a tribute? I don't like gold." Tang Taizong threw the SR weapon in his hand, the frost blade with back teeth.

The system prompt sounded: "Congratulations on getting the weapon SR Backtooth Frostblade presented by the emperor. The task rewards presented by the emperor are all top-quality products. Please keep them safe. The attached task reward is 500 gold coins."

A panel popped up in front of him, 500 gold coins flowed into the inventory, and the remaining gold coins became 1000.

"Ding" the system notification sounded again: "Congratulations! You and your dragon lady have been upgraded to level 6, with a maximum blood volume of +100 and a maximum attack power of +10."

When he looked at Tang Taizong again, Tang Taizong said: "You also helped a lot in blocking the assassins. I happen to be carrying a weapon in my hand, so I will give it to you as a reward."

Afterwards, Tang Taizong put his hands behind his back, and Wei Zheng led the crowd far away, and their conversation sounded from a distance:
"Your Majesty, how can you condescend to your dragon body? My servant will let someone enter the palace to bring out another dragon chariot to pick you up!"

"No need, I also have a schedule, hurry back to the palace and discuss with the ministers the plan to move the capital to Luoyang."
