So he directly put an end to the arguments of many ministers, asked them to prepare various precious gifts, and immediately transformed into human form again and came to Chang'an City to visit Yuan Shoucheng again.
Seeing his arrival, Yuan Shoucheng was obviously a little surprised: "What are you doing?"
Zu An asked his subordinates to carry the gift over, and then he bowed in admiration: "Sir, you are so clever and clever, I really admire you. I have offended you many times before, so I hope you won't take offense."
Many onlookers nearby still had an impression of him. Before, they were obviously bullish and wanted to smash Mr. Yuan's stall, but now he was arrogant and respectful. They all started making noises, and they felt that Yuan Shoucheng was awesome.
Yuan Shoucheng stroked his beard and smiled mysteriously: "Tomorrow has not come yet, how do you know that you have lost? You'd better come back tomorrow."
Zu An stared at him: "Sir, since you are so clever, how can you not know why I came here?"
Yuan Shoucheng was startled and didn't know how to answer for a while.
Zu An bowed sincerely again: "If you, sir, need a golden carp, I will send someone to deliver one to you every day from now on. If you are interested, sir, you are welcome to come to Shuifu Mansion as a guest at any time."
As Yasha said before, the reason why Yuan Shoucheng taught the fishermen where to lower their nets to catch fish was so that the fishermen would deliver a golden carp every day.
Seeing his enthusiasm, Yuan Shoucheng couldn't hold it any longer: "Your Excellency, you are serious. It was just a misunderstanding before. Let's not take it to heart. The Jing River is on the edge of Chang'an. Speaking of which, we can be considered neighbors. We need to move around more in the future."
yes."
"It's natural." Zu An agreed with a smile. The two chatted happily for a long time before saying goodbye and leaving.
After Zu An left, Yuan Shoucheng in the room put away his previous smile, and the boy beside him also changed, with various glows on his body.
The people outside the door who were asking fortune-telling questions seemed to have been stopped by time, and could not see the changes here at all.
The "boy" said in a deep voice: "You don't really want to be friends with him, do you?"
Yuan Shoucheng smiled slightly: "It's just a chess piece, how can we call it a friend or not?"
"But this time the Jinghe Dragon King was not fooled, and our plan was disrupted. What should we do next?"
Yuan Shoucheng said calmly: "The Dragon King of Jinghe wants to break out of the chess game, but it is not that easy. Those golden carps are the sons and grandsons of the dragon, and they are all candidates for succession. After a while, their bloodline in the Dragon Palace will be cut off. Besides, human nature
Greedy, those fishermen in the past knew the patterns of the appearance of fish schools, and in order to make more money, they cast the net to kill every household. If this continues, in a few years, there will probably be no fish out of ten in Jinghe Water Mansion. By then, he will be dead.
Being the Dragon King and guarding the land without any direction is still a capital crime. No matter what, he cannot escape his destined destiny."
In addition, the "boy" smiled when he heard this: "Such a great kindness, the Dragon King of Jinghe River is destined to have this calamity, so you can't blame us."
Let's say that after Zu An left Yuan Mansion, his face that had been smiling brightly just now suddenly became serious.
Of course he wouldn't think that the "apology" he just offered could really solve the problem. If there wasn't some kind of mysterious existence in that military advisor, and he hadn't read Journey to the West, and hadn't experienced all kinds of storms, he might really believe it.
The reason why we staged it like this is just to temporarily paralyze the man named Yuan.
He did not return to the Dragon Palace, but came to the vicinity of the palace and stayed at the nearest inn.
After nightfall, he directly left his body and performed the dream-entering technique.
The palace is protected by heaven. It is difficult for a being like him to enter quietly, but if you use the technique of entering dreams, you can guide Emperor Tang out.
This is the skill that the Dragon King of Jinghe comes with. Coupled with recalling some related plots, it is not difficult to think of this.
Speaking of which, although the Jinghe Dragon King is not very powerful in combat, the skills he possesses are quite magical, such as the art of transformation and the art of entering dreams. Even Zu An is a little jealous, and he does not know what will happen after leaving this body.
Do you still remember how to perform these spells?
Unknowingly, his soul had arrived outside the palace gate, and happened to see Emperor Taizong Li Shimin strolling out. Judging from his state, he was obviously in a dream.
So he stepped forward and saluted: "The Dragon King of Jinghe has met your Majesty."
Tang Taizong was startled: "You... you are the Dragon King?"
After all, he was also an emperor who was killed through a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. Seeing that the other party had no ill intentions, he gradually calmed down.
Zu An somewhat admired his magnanimity. He was obviously an ordinary person. This magnanimity could not be matched by many masters in the world: "Your Majesty is the true dragon emperor in the world. I can only be regarded as a dragon in one area of water, far inferior to your majesty.
"
Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty laughed: "The Dragon King is too modest. I wonder why the Dragon King wants to see me?"
"I do have a small matter that I would like to trouble Your Majesty. In recent days, there have been many fishermen fishing along the Jinghe River. It is normal for people to catch some fish and shrimps in order to make a living. But these fishermen don't know what is going on, and they always catch it.
He accurately found the location of the fish and was so greedy that he cast a net to eliminate every household. If things go on like this, there will be no fish and shrimp in the Jing River from now on, which is really not a blessing for the descendants of the Tang Dynasty."
Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was stunned: "There is such a thing. I know it. Tomorrow I will send the relevant departments of the DPRK and China to implement this matter. We must not waste all our efforts and leave a lifeless Jing to future generations."
river."
Seeing his expression, Zu An immediately knew that he didn't take him too seriously. After all, for an emperor, there were so many national affairs to deal with on a daily basis. It was really difficult for him to make a living as a fisherman in such a water area.
Be more attentive.
However, he was well prepared and continued: "Actually, these are small things, and I don't need to come here in person. It's just that those fishermen must catch a golden carp every day. Your Majesty, have you ever heard of the carp leaping over the dragon's gate?"
Tang Taizong nodded: "When a carp crosses the dragon gate, it can become a real dragon."
"Yes, these golden carps are actually real dragons in the future, and they are related to the dragon veins of Chang'an. Now that fishermen hunt them every day, it will inevitably affect the dragon veins of Chang'an and the fate of the Tang Dynasty." Zu An said solemnly.
As expected, Tang Taizong's face changed drastically, and he no longer responded in the formulaic way he had just said: "What, who is this demon secretly trying to destroy my country in the Tang Dynasty!"
No matter how high-sounding the emperor may be, he may not really care about the livelihood of ordinary people, but when it comes to the stability of his country, that matters more than anything else!
Zu An said in a deep voice: "I am the Dragon King in the water. I am bound by the laws of heaven. It is really inconvenient for me to interfere in matters on land, so I specially entrusted the dream to Your Majesty."
Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was originally a little confused about why he, the mighty Dragon King, was bullied by some fishermen. Hearing this, he no longer had any doubts. Instead, he sincerely thanked him: "Thank you Dragon King for telling me. Otherwise, I would still be kept in the dark. I will definitely know it."
Check this matter!"
Zu An smiled slightly: "Your Majesty is serious. Your Majesty is willing to help our Jinghe Water Mansion solve a big problem. In order to thank your Majesty, I specially recommend a strange person to your Majesty."
"Oh, I wonder who he is?" Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty suddenly became interested. Someone like the Dragon King of Jinghe should be considered a god. How could he be called a strange person?
"There is a fortune teller named Yuan Shoucheng on the West Street of Chang'an. This man knows the secrets of heaven and geography. Every time he tells people's fortunes, he always gets the right result. Your Majesty can ask him to tell you how much life you have left." Zu An replied.
Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was overjoyed: "Thank you Dragon King for your advice!"
You must know that for emperors, what else in the world can they not get?
The only thing they worry about is their own life span. Everyone wants to live forever, but the experience and lessons of the past generations make them know that this is impossible. If they can know the longevity in advance, many things will be easier to arrange, and it will not be a problem.
Because of the sudden death, something happened to the country.
After explaining everything, Zu An said goodbye to him and exited his dream.
In the inn outside the palace, Zu An opened his eyes. He didn't know what conditions this time-space slice had to meet to break the situation, so he could only solve all the problems as much as possible.
You cannot disobey the will of heaven and let yourself become an injustice.
The aquatic life of the Jing River cannot be hunted and killed by fishermen.
Of course, just doing this is not enough. You can't just let Yuan dig holes and defend yourself passively. You should also take the initiative to dig holes for him.
For example, he vaguely remembered that in "Journey to the West", the reason why Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was taken away to the underworld was not only because the Dragon King of Jinghe River complained, but also because he himself had run out of life.
Isn't the man named Yuan quite capable? Should he tell the truth to Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty?
If Tang Taizong knew that he was about to die, the investigation of those fishermen should have yielded results by then. After receiving the report and knowing that it was the man named Yuan who asked those fishermen to fish, what would Tang Taizong think then?
Do you think that this fortune teller is deceiving the public with his evil words, secretly using the hands of fishermen to cut off the dragon veins of the Tang Dynasty, and threatening that his life is approaching, and if he is not killed by then, he will not be able to bear the consequences of his bloody death?
Zu An didn't feel that such revenge was excessive. You should know that it was obvious from the beginning that Yuan was the one who set up a trap against him and was here to take his life. He was not the Jinghe Dragon King who jumped in stupidly.
After doing this, he was not done yet. He returned to the Water Mansion and quickly wrote a memorial in his own hand.
It was mentioned above that a large number of aquariums in the Jing River Basin have been fished abnormally in recent times. After investigation, it was found that those fishermen can accurately detect the places where fish schools change. No matter how they order the aquarium to change the direction of fish schools, those fishermen can accurately catch fish. Originally
I thought there was a traitor among the Shui Tribe, but I personally investigated and discovered that their information came from a fortune teller in Chang'an City. This person often leaked secrets from the sky, and he was sure to win no matter what he calculated. Especially today, he was able to know the rainfall in the heavens earlier than he did.
The imperial edict, when it rains, is not bad at all, which is really incredible.
As a little Jinghe Dragon King, he couldn't figure out the reason and didn't dare to speculate on it, so he could only report the situation truthfully.
From beginning to end, he never ignored the existence of heaven.
