Chapter 498 Nine Tails Makes Trouble in the Imperial Capital
suddenly.
"Boom"
The dark sky was torn apart by a bolt of lightning, like a crack in the sky.
Huge thunder exploded over the Imperial Capital, causing the ears of people on both sides of the Imperial Capital River to buzz!
September thunder resounds across the sky.
This is the first thunder in the imperial capital in September.
This is also the first thunderbolt since September entered the imperial capital in countless years, and it can't help but make people think a lot.
at this time.
"boom"
Eight more dragon tails emerged from the water, shining with golden light. They frantically beat the water waves in the Imperial River, causing endless wild waves to surge in the Imperial River!
Wild waves!
Wild waves!
"The dragon with nine tails?"
An old Confucian scholar woke up from the shock and shouted excitedly: "It's the legendary golden dragon!"
"Oh my god, it's a dragon!"
"Is this dragon going to survive the tribulation here and ascend to the immortal world?"
"Is he just like the weird lady from Jixia Academy back then?"
"Is there really a fairyland in heaven?"
At this time.
Xiao Huang, the deputy chief of the Imperial City Department, had already rushed over. Looking at the nine golden tails in the river, his expression changed greatly: "Pass the news to the palace and let the company make a decision!"
"Send an order to the Imperial Navy to kill this water monster!"
Next to him, the old Confucian scholar shouted: "Sir, you can't kill me!"
"This is the divine dragon. It is the auspicious sign of my Daxia Empire. It is the national beast of my Daxia Empire. You cannot kill it!"
Deputy Dusi Huang's eyes narrowed and he shouted sternly: "This is not a divine dragon, this is a water monster. If anyone says it is a divine dragon, they will be killed without mercy!"
"yes!"
The experts from the Imperial City Division shouted sternly: "Shout the important words three times, this is a water monster, a water monster, a water monster, not a dragon!"
"Whoever dares to speak nonsense will be killed!"
Murderous intent soars into the sky!
At this time.
In the Imperial River, the fishermen who fell into the water finally woke up from the fright after taking a few sips of water, and shouted for help in the rough waves: "Help!"
They looked at the golden body under the water with horrified faces, and were horrified to death: "It's really a dragon!"
"It's a real dragon!"
"Boom"
Thunder continued to explode over the Imperial River, and to match this scene, lightning danced wildly in the dark clouds, like a silver dragon, echoing the golden dragon in the water!
The scene is horrifying!
In the water, the golden water monster created whirlpools, causing the fishermen to float in the water and unable to reach the shore!
If they weren't good at water, they would have turned into corpses!
What’s even more strange is that the golden water monster did not attack the drowned fishermen, but allowed them to cry for help in the water, making the whole scene even more eerie and terrifying!
"Help!"
The fishermen looked horrified: "Save us quickly!"
At this time.
The archers from the Imperial City Department and the patrol camp have arrived, and each warrior is drawing his bow and setting an arrow.
Imperial City Secretary Huang Deputy Dusi said solemnly: "The target is the tail of the golden water monster, be careful not to hurt the fishermen, let go!"
"Swish swish"
The arrows shot out with cold light hit the golden dragon's tail one after another. They were very accurate and not a single arrow was shot randomly!
"Ding Ding Dang Dang"
On the scales of the dragon's tail, there was a sound of gold and iron that made one's scalp numb.
But none of the arrows broke through the dragon's scales. They were all bounced into the water, which did little harm to the water monster!
Deputy Chief Huang looked solemn: "Quickly enter the palace and report to Your Majesty that a water monster has appeared, and the adults in the enshrinement palace need to take action!"
"yes!"
suddenly.
The nine golden dragon tails sank into the water.
The huge golden body that was looming in the water also sank rapidly and disappeared at an extremely fast speed.
At this time, the boats on the water began to rescue people!
That is at this time.
The thunder in the sky disappeared and the dark clouds began to dissipate!
The water waves in the Imperial City River gradually became smaller.
At this moment.
A piece of dragon scale shot out of the water and landed on the shore, with three words "King of Yangzhou" written in blood on it.
"Whoosh"
Li Si, the current head of the Taoist school, rushed over. Looking at the Imperial Capital River that was slowly calming down, he beat his feet and chest: "It's too late!"
Then, he looked up at the sky with a thoughtful look in his eyes: "Is this water monster causing the thunder in the sky?"
"Or did the water monster borrow the power of thunder at this time?"
"If it took advantage of the thunder in September, how would it know that thunder would fall from the sky in the imperial capital today?"
He couldn't figure it out: "Vice Dutong Huang, what do you think about this matter?"
Deputy Chief Huang said with a humble face: "The views of the Imperial Master are the views of a humble position!"
That's right, Taoist leader Li Si also has another identity, that is, the national preceptor of the Daxia Empire.
Li Si: ""
"Then what do you think of those three words on the dragon scale?"
Deputy Dusi Huang handed over the dragon scale and said: "The view of the Imperial Master is the view of a humble position!"
Li Si glared at him angrily: "Is this how you became the deputy chief of the Imperial City Division?"
"On weekdays, if your company asked you for your opinion, would you answer in the same way?"
Deputy Chief Huang had a charming smile on his face: "Our company is wise, powerful and intelligent. There is no need to ask for the opinion of a humble official!"
"Master National Preceptor, you have studied the great ways of heaven and earth, and you are knowledgeable about the past and present, and your wisdom is as holy as a saint. The things that can make you confused are unsolvable confusions for a humble person!"
"You are humble and stupid, please punish me, the Imperial Preceptor!"
Li Si put away the dragon scale and ordered the Taoist masters around him: "My master will return to the observatory immediately to study this dragon scale, and then deliver it to His Majesty himself!"
"Go down to the river and see if you can find any useful clues!"
"If there are any clues, send them to the secret room of the observatory immediately!"
"yes!"
Li Si glared at Deputy Dusi Huang: "Let's go!"
Deputy Dusi Huang looked respectful: "Congratulations to the Imperial Master!"
Shortly after.
Rumors spread in the imperial capital that there was something dirty in the East Palace of Daxia, so two consecutive princes were deposed.
So, God was furious and sent a real dragon to stir up trouble in the river of the imperial capital. He left a message on the dragon's scales to tell the world that only King Xia Bao of Yangzhou could sit firmly in the East Palace and become the new crown prince!
So, the whole city was shocked!
at this time.
In the Royal Study Room of the Imperial Palace.
Emperor Xia had been staring at Prime Minister You for a quarter of an hour. The look in his eagle eyes was complicated and unclear, which made Cao Wei's scalp numb and panicked!
He asked weakly: "Your Majesty, did I do something wrong?"
Emperor Xia shook his head: "No! You are not wrong!"
"It's my fault!"
Emperor Xia's tone was very light!
After hearing this, Cao Wei found it difficult to breathe.
He swore to the yellow-faced woman at home that the emperor's words seemed to be spoken to a dead person.
"Plop"
Cao Wei was so frightened that his legs weakened and he knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, if I have done something wrong and accepted the punishment, please make it clear!"
Gradually, endless anger surged on Emperor Xia's face: "Cao Wei, I have always thought that you have the merit of serving the dragon, so I have always asked you to assist the crown prince, and let you sit firmly in the position of right prime minister. I have treated your Cao family well." Bar?"
Cao Wei said cautiously: "Yes!"
"Your Majesty's kindness to the Cao family will never be forgotten by Cao Wei!"
Emperor Xia then asked coldly: "Then how dare you go behind my back and assassinate Xiao Jiu?"
"If Xiaojiu dies in Erlong Mountain this time and cannot return to Huangzhou, what will happen to the millions of untouchables and refugees in Huangzhou?"
"How can I explain this to Concubine Qin?"
"Assassinating the prince is a crime of conspiracy!"
These words let Cao Wei know that Xia Tian was still alive and that his action had failed!
His heart fell into an abyss!
However, he still had the last straw: "Your Majesty, it was not my idea!"
Emperor Xia's eyes were filled with murderous intent: "Whose idea was that?"
Cao Wei raised his head tremblingly and said seriously: "Ancestor Zongheng!"
