Chapter 943: An Emperor Who Extremely Cherishes His Reputation

"Reporting to Your Majesty, it is almost noon."

The personal eunuch serving the Tang Huang Li Shimin replied immediately.

Upon hearing that it was almost the noon hour agreed upon with the Jinghe Long Wang, the Tang Huang Li Shimin thought to himself: 'It is almost noon; even if Wei Zheng wakes up now, I fear he will not be able to make it in time to supervise the execution of the Jinghe Long Wang.'

'It seems the Jinghe Long Wang's death tribulation has turned from danger to safety.'

Consequently, the Tang Huang Li Shimin prepared to wake the sleeping Wei Zheng, but just as he raised his hand, he thought:

'No, I do not know the methods of these immortals; perhaps they can reach the Heaven Realm in this extremely short time. I must be cautious. Very well, it is merely a bit of time; I will wake Wei Zheng after noon.'

The Tang Huang Li Shimin abandoned his previous thought.

However, his gaze had already fallen on Wei Zheng. At this moment, the Tang Huang Li Shimin saw at a glance that Wei Zheng's forehead was covered in fine sweat, and his features were tense, as if he were having a nightmare.

Seeing this, the Tang Huang Li Shimin thought Wei Zheng was under too much pressure, to the point that he could not even rest peacefully while sleeping.

So he took the feather fan from the eunuch's hand and fanned it gently beside Wei Zheng.

"The affairs of the Great Tang have indeed been pressed onto you alone, Minister Wei Zheng. I am personally fanning you to drive away the heat, which can be considered a small token of my heart."

The Tang Huang Li Shimin said this, but he had a little secret thought of his own.

Anyone who has ever dreamed knows that once one encounters something terrifying in a dream, it is very easy to be startled awake.

Thus, the Tang Huang Li Shimin did this with the hope that Wei Zheng would not wake up so quickly.

After all, the fact that Wei Zheng had fallen asleep at the desk showed that he, as a minister, was extremely exhausted. ===== CHAPTER 945 =====
