07. I was shocked to hear that my father was slaying a dragon in his dream. Is this Journey to the West?
In the imperial garden, among the pavilions.
Wei Zheng woke up from his sleep and saw the black chess pieces killing everyone on the chess board. After thinking for a moment, he placed the two white pieces on the chess board.
"Your Majesty, I have surrendered."
"Your Majesty's ability to organize troops is far inferior to that of my veteran minister." Wei Zheng said truthfully.
"Hahaha! Wei Aiqing is good at chess..." Li Shimin is still somewhat confident in his chess skills.
"What time is it now?" Li Shimin asked the eunuch beside him.
"Your Majesty, it's already three quarters past noon." The eunuch replied respectfully.
"Oh? It's been three moments?"
Li Shimin stood up slowly, feeling relieved and said, "It's past three quarters at noon. What I promised to Lao Long is completed."
"Wei Qing's family, let's have lunch together."
"Old minister, I obey the order!"
After lunch, Li Shimin didn't stay with Wei Zheng much.
Wei Zheng took the initiative to resign.
Wei Zheng was walking on the way home, puzzled, "Why did your Majesty summon me to the palace with so much force today? I can't figure it out..."
"Is it really just a signal to the officials? Pay attention to the Wei family's signal?"
…
Not long after, Wei Zheng arrived home.
Wei Shuyu had just finished lunch, practiced calligraphy for a while, and walked towards his father.
"Dad, have you had lunch?"
"Well, I dined with His Majesty in the palace." Wei Zheng nodded.
"Dad, His Majesty summoned you so early, why is it?" Wei Shuyu began to inquire, so as to plan the next move.
"I had nothing to do. I had breakfast and then walked around the Imperial Garden together. We chatted a lot, but it was all about normal state affairs, and then we played chess... After lunch, we came back." Wei Zheng said to Wei Shuyu, who is such a big man.
The son did not hide anything.
Over the years, Wei Zheng has noticed Wei Shuyu's performance and knows how to measure it.
After hearing this, Wei Shuyu couldn't help but be a little disbelieving. He was summoned so early and so solemnly. "That's all?"
"that's it."
As Wei Zheng spoke, he couldn't help but think of an interesting thing, "I played chess with His Majesty for too long. I got tired, so I took a nap and had a dream."
"Dad, you are awesome! You can even fall asleep playing chess with the emperor..." Wei Shuyu raised a finger indifferently. This is okay. Dad is old, so it is normal.
"Dad, what did you dream about?" Wei Shuyu asked curiously.
"It's nothing, I can't remember clearly. I seem to have become some kind of official. They called me Cao from Wei, and then I killed a dragon." Wei Zheng said leisurely.
Wei Shuyu didn't care at first, but when he heard this, his eyes widened and his breathing became more rapid, "What? Dad... what did you say? You killed a dragon? They still call you Cao from Wei?"
Wei Shuyu's breathing became increasingly rapid, and his face was filled with shock and unbelief.
If someone said that he killed a dragon in his dream, Wei Shuyu would definitely laugh it off.
But my father’s name is Wei Zheng!
The 'dead memories' began to attack Wei Shuyu's brain crazily, and the famous book Journey to the West that he had read when he was a child kept popping up.
One of the things mentioned in it is that in Wei Zheng's dream, the soul came out of the body and killed the Dragon King of Jinghe...
Journey to the West says that Wei Zheng is the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty on earth, but he is also listed in the heaven, and his official position is the human Cao Guan!
Cao Guan is divided into Heaven Cao Guan, Earth Cao Guan, Human Cao Guan... Wei Zheng is the human Cao Guan!
Wei Shuyu was in a state of confusion, with constant roaring in his mind. He tried to ask again in a low voice: "Dad, what is that dragon... called? Do you know?"
Wei Zheng shook his head, his eyes were a little confused, and he fell into memories, "I can't remember clearly, it seems... it seems... what is the name of Jinghe... Jinghe..."
"Jinghe Dragon King?"
"Yes, Jinghe Dragon King!"
Boom! Bang! Rumble!
Wei Shuyu's mind was filled with turbulent waves and thunder. It was hard for him to accept his three views. His whole body trembled and he was dumbfounded. "How can he be called the Dragon King of Jinghe River? How can he be called the Dragon King of Jinghe River?"
"Shu Yu, what's wrong?" Wei Zheng asked with concern when he saw that his elder son was in a bad state.
"Dad, I'm fine. Maybe I caught a cold last night and didn't sleep well." Wei Shuyu spoke again, his voice was hoarse and difficult to pronounce.
"Caught a cold? Dad, go ask the pharmacy to boil some medicine for you. It's really cold at night in the dog days of summer in Chang'an." Wei Zheng said with concern.
"Dad, don't worry, it's okay. You have been tired for a long time, so you should go back to your room and rest as soon as possible. The child can go and order the pharmacy." Wei Shuyu was so confused that he urgently needed to find a quiet place to relax.
"Yeah, that's fine."
…
Wei Shuyu returned to his room, slammed the door, and immediately found a large piece of paper with dense relationship diagrams drawn on it.
Make good friends with the sons of military generals, make good friends with the sons of civil servants, the first five-year plan, the second five-year plan, the third and fourth five-year plans...
Three yuan in a row in life planning!
In life planning, I became a good friend of Li Zhi and followed Li Zhi to hang out.
The big paper is filled with Wei Shuyu's plans. This year is the seventeenth year of time travel. The three five-year plans have been completed, and the life plan of Lian Zhong Sanyuan is also proceeding in an orderly manner...
But today, my father's words shattered Wei Shuyu's outlook on life!
"What the hell...isn't it the Tang Dynasty? What the hell is this Journey to the West of Gods and Demons?"
"how so?"
Wei Shuyu has been studying hard for sixteen years. He is eager to make his mark on the political and historical stage. Only today did he find out...this...is actually Journey to the West!
Wei Shuyu's mentality collapsed.
From this point of view, it makes sense that Li Shimin summoned his father to the palace so early.
It must be the Dragon King of Jinghe who ran to the Dragon Palace and begged Li Shimin to stop his father Wei Zheng no matter what and not to let him go to the Dragon Slaying Platform at three quarters in the afternoon.
Li Shimin naturally kept his promise and summoned his father into the palace early.
But how could Li Shimin have imagined that Wei Zheng would actually have his soul come out of his body in his dream and kill the Jinghe Dragon King?
"Damn it, this is a conspiracy, it's a definite conspiracy, the Dragon King of Jinghe must die..."
This is Journey to the West, a journey to the West filled with immortals, saints, gods and demons!
Wei Shuyu was familiar with the classic Journey to the West in his previous life. No matter how you look at it, this Journey to the West is also a huge layout.
Journey to the West, to put it bluntly, is a new round of games between immortals and saints all over the sky. The Human Sect, the Chan Sect, the Jie Sect, the Western Sect, the Heavenly Court, the Underworld, the Dragon Clan of the Four Seas, and the Monster Clan are all involved in the game. They are playing chess... and the involvement is so wide.
…
Western religion should now be Buddhism.
In the Battle of the Conferred Gods, the two sects of Renchan and the Western Sect jointly defeated the Immortal Killing Formation and the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation. The masters of the intercepting sects suffered numerous casualties, and all of them were listed on the Conferred Gods List.
The Western Sect not only converted three thousand disciples of the Jie Sect, but also rebelled against Xuan and established Buddhism...
After the Great War of Conferring Gods, Emperor Xin of the Great Shang Dynasty burned himself in the Zhaixing Tower, and the Zhou Dynasty was established. The Human Emperor lowered his status and called himself the Son of Heaven.
After the Shang Dynasty, the human race no longer had an emperor.
The fate of the human race was divided and torn apart by humans, Chan, Buddha, Heaven, etc., and the three emperors of heaven, earth, and humans were even imprisoned in the Fire Cloud Cave.
This journey to the west is a game played by immortals and saints all over the sky. The spread of Buddhism to the east is essentially to plunder more human beings' luck.
As for the human race... they are just fish and meat on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered by others!
The current situation of the human race is miserable. There are many monsters and ghosts in Journey to the West. It is even more common to eat a few people randomly...
Not to mention...Shituoling.
According to the description of Journey to the West, "Shituoling Ridge is eight hundred miles straight and one thousand miles across, with a total area of more than eight hundred thousand miles in radius. It is like a mountain of skeletons and a forest of bones. There are human skins and rotten flesh everywhere. In the phrase "mountain of corpses and sea of blood"
It’s no exaggeration to describe it, there are three old monsters and more than 40,000 little monsters inside.”
That green-haired lion can eat a city with just one mouthful, and the people in the city become blood eaters...
When Wei Shuyu thought of this, his scalp felt a little numb, and he was very panicked. This was... the journey to the west where the heavens are filled with immortals, saints, gods and demons!!
