"Jinghe Dragon King did have this intention, but Yuan Shoucheng's divination skills were very good. The Celestial Court suddenly issued an imperial edict, requesting Jinghe Dragon King to rain tomorrow. The time on the imperial edict was exactly the same as Yuan Shoucheng's divination. Jinghe Dragon King was eager to win, so he secretly changed the time of the rain and violated the laws of heaven. As a result, the Celestial Court found out and he was beheaded," Cheng Yaojin continued.
"So that's what happened. But why did Jinghe Dragon King seek revenge on His Majesty?" Lu Huaming suddenly understood and asked.
"Jinghe Dragon King knew that he violated the laws of heaven, so he asked Yuan Shoucheng for help. Yuan Shoucheng calculated that Jinghe Dragon King would be beheaded by Prime Minister Wei Zheng at noon tomorrow, so he asked Jinghe Dragon King to seek help from His Majesty. His Majesty was grateful for Jinghe Dragon King's sincerity, so he summoned Wei Zheng to his palace the next day and kept him by his side. His intention was to stall for time so that Wei Zheng wouldn't have time to leave the palace to execute Jinghe Dragon King. Until noon, the two of them played chess. Wei Zheng was busy with state affairs and actually fell asleep on the table. His Majesty let him sleep and didn't wake him. Seeing that it was noon, His Majesty thought that Jinghe Dragon King had escaped and was relieved. Suddenly, he saw that Wei Zheng's forehead was covered with sweat and his expression was slightly anxious. His Majesty was afraid that the weather was hot and felt sorry for his virtuous minister, so he personally fanned Wei Zheng. At this moment, someone asked for an audience outside the palace. It was Xu Maogong, Qin Shubao, and the others who each held a dragon head and entered the palace. That day, I was also among them. That dragon head suddenly fell from the sky. After we discussed it, we didn't dare to not report it, so we came to report it to His Majesty. "Cheng Yaojin's face was full of reminiscence as if he was recalling the situation that day.
"Since Lord Wei Zheng didn't leave the palace, who killed Jinghe Dragon King?" Lu Huaming was surprised and couldn't help but ask.
Shen Luo also felt strange and looked at Cheng Yaojin.
"At this moment, Wei Zheng was also awakened. After apologizing, he said that he had killed the dragon in his dream. It turned out that although he was in front of you, he had left the palace in his dream. He rode a cloud and chased after the dragon with his sword. The Dragon King of the Jinghe River fled in panic. Wei Zheng was unable to catch up with him for a while and was feeling anxious. Fortunately, His Majesty fanned him. With the three cool winds from the fan, he was able to catch up with the evil dragon.
"So that's how it is." Lu Huaming nodded and murmured.
Shen Luo sighed silently. That Jinghe Dragon King had wanted to protect his own race. Unfortunately, he was too competitive and ended up in such a state.
"After the Dragon King of the Jinghe River was beheaded, his ghost was resentful and cast a spell to capture His Majesty's spirit to the Nether World. He said that His Majesty had promised to save him. However, instead of saving him, His Majesty helped Wei Zheng to kill him. He had broken his promise and wanted His Majesty to pay with his life. Although His Majesty helped Wei Zheng to kill the Dragon King of the Jinghe River, it was an unintentional act. Moreover, he was the ruler of the Tang Empire and had not reached the end of his lifespan. In addition, there was a master who cast a spell. Thus, the Nether World didn't detain him and quickly sent him back. In order to prevent the Dragon King of the Jinghe River from harassing His Majesty again, that master sealed the Dragon King of the Jinghe River somewhere in the Nether World, which is the place you went last time. Wei Zheng used the Golden Light Sword Formation to seal the head of the Dragon King of the Jinghe River in Chang 'an City. "Cheng Yaojin continued.
"What kind of master could seal the ghost of the Dragon King of the Jinghe River?" Lu Huaming asked in surprise.
He had personally experienced the strength of the ghost of the Dragon King of the Jinghe River. Even Cheng Yaojin might not be able to defeat it. Someone could seal it. Could it be an immortal?
"You know that master, too. He is the Nation Preceptor, Yuan Tiangang." Cheng Yaojin said solemnly.
Shen Luo raised his eyebrows. No wonder the Dragon King of the Jinghe River shouted to seek revenge on Yuan Tiangang before he left. It turned out that there was such a grudge between them.
He had lived in Chang 'an for so long and had heard people talk about this Nation Preceptor Yuan Tiangang several times. They said that he could see the past and the future and predict good and bad luck. He was like a god.
He originally thought that it was just a rumor spread by the common people. Now, it seemed that this Nation Preceptor Yuan was really a master.
"The Nation Preceptor looks sick, but he is actually so powerful!" Lu Huaming murmured.
"Don't talk nonsense! The Nation Preceptor's divine skills are beyond your imagination. If it weren't for him, our Tang Empire would not be as powerful as it is today. "Cheng Yaojin said.
"Yes, I know my mistake." Lu Huaming still had a trace of disbelief on his face, but he hurriedly admitted his mistake.
Cheng Yaojin was too lazy to pay attention to his slippery disciple.
"Duke Cheng, Senior Huang Mu, I have a question, but I don't know if I should ask." Shen Luo hesitated for a moment, but still cupped his hands and said.
"You don't have to be so polite. If you have something to say, just say it." Master Huang Mu smiled.
"In that case, I will say it directly. I wonder if the Nation Preceptor Yuan Tiangang has anything to do with that Yuan Shoucheng who divinates? With all due respect, that Yuan Shoucheng divined the location of the Jinghe River Aquatic Tribe for the old fisherman. I'm afraid that he has ulterior motives. "Shen Luo said.
"You are quick-witted. I also think so about this matter. However, Yuan Shoucheng disappeared without a trace after the Dragon King of the Jinghe River was beheaded. I have sent people to look for him, but they couldn't find any trace of him. As for this person and Nation Preceptor Yuan, it seems that they have nothing to do with each other. I once asked Nation Preceptor Yuan, but he said that he didn't know this Yuan Shoucheng. "Master Huang Mu said.
Shen Luo frowned. This matter was really full of doubts.
"This matter involves His Majesty. It's good that you two know about it. Don't let others know." After everything was said, Cheng Yaojin exhorted.
Shen Luo and Lu Huaming naturally agreed.
Then, Shen Luo saw that there was nothing for him to do, so he immediately left. Cheng Yaojin and the others seemed to have something important to discuss, so they didn't ask him to stay.
He quickly left the Tang government office and was about to stop a carriage to return to his residence.
"Shen Daoyou, long time no see." A crisp female voice came. A young girl in white stood in front of him. It was Ma Xiuxiu, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
"So it's Miss Ma. I haven't seen you for a long time. The Jubao Hall is worthy of being one of the three major chambers of commerce of the Tang Empire. You found this place so quickly." Shen Luo's pupils shrank slightly, and then returned to normal.
After advancing to the Soul Condensing Stage, his fear of the Jubao Hall had decreased a lot.
"Shen Daoyou showed great power in the east of the city and defeated the ghost of the Jinghe Dragon King. This matter has already spread in the city. My Jubao Hall has some connections, so naturally, I heard about it." Ma Xiuxiu didn't seem to feel the sarcasm in Shen Luo's words and smiled.
"I see. Miss Ma, why are you here at this time?" Shen Luo nodded slightly and then asked.
"Shen Daoyou, you are so forgetful. You promised to make the Memory Charm for me. Now more than a year has passed. Have you made any progress?" Ma Xiuxiu said with some dissatisfaction.
"I have drawn the Memory Charm. It's just that I have been busy recently and didn't send it to you in time. Please don't blame me." Shen Luo patted his forehead and then took out a yellow charm. It was the Memory Charm that he had drawn during this period of time.
When Ma Xiuxiu saw the charm, her eyes immediately lit up. She almost forgot herself and grabbed it.
