Chapter 945: The Head of the Jinghe Long Wang

~4 min read 675 words

Qin Shubao and Xu Maogong stood outside the side hall where Emperor Li Shimin of Tang currently resided, their faces filled with anxiety, holding a bloody object in their hands.

The eunuch guarding the door looked at the bloody thing in Qin Shubao's hand and for a moment did not know whether he should report it.

After all, this object looked like an ominous thing at first glance.

However, the side hall where Emperor Li Shimin of Tang was currently staying was extremely quiet, so even if Qin Shubao shouted outside the door, Emperor Li Shimin of Tang could hear what he said very clearly.

Thus, Emperor Li Shimin of Tang spoke directly: "Why haven't you invited the two Generals in yet?"

Upon hearing the imperial decree of Emperor Li Shimin of Tang, the eunuch did not offer any obstruction and led Qin Shubao and Xu Maogong directly into the side hall.

At this moment, as Qin Shubao and Xu Maogong entered, Emperor Li Shimin of Tang noticed the bloody object held in Qin Shubao's hand.

After all, this object, let alone in the imperial palace, would be an extremely conspicuous presence in any place.

Therefore, Emperor Li Shimin of Tang had no way to avoid noticing it.

And as Emperor Li Shimin of Tang looked carefully at what the bloody object held in Qin Shubao's hand actually was,

he discovered that the object Qin Shubao was holding was not unfamiliar to him at all; he had even seen it just last night.

What Qin Shubao was holding was a dragon head, and this dragon head was the head of the Jinghe Long Wang.

Emperor Li Shimin of Tang was confident he would not mistake it; after all, he had only seen the Jinghe Long Wang in his dream last night, so he naturally had a clear impression of the Jinghe Long Wang's head.

Consequently, looking at the Jinghe Long Wang now reduced to just a head, Emperor Li Shimin of Tang felt extremely angry inside!

After all, he had already delayed Wei Zheng to such an extent, yet Wei Zheng had still found an opportunity to go to the Heavenly Court and behead the Jinghe Long Wang.

What followed was lingering fear, for a dragon king of the Jinghe aquatic tribe had perished just like that amidst a conspiracy.

Although Emperor Li Shimin of Tang was the noble Emperor of the Great Tang, his status was not much higher than that of the Jinghe Long Wang, and in terms of cultivation, he was entirely an ant.

Under such circumstances, if the Jinghe Long Wang could not be spared, how could Emperor Li Shimin of Tang, who was caught in the middle of the game and targeted by the mastermind behind the scenes, be certain that he could survive the schemes of such a mastermind?

"Greetings, Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live the Emperor!"

As soon as Qin Shubao and Xu Maogong saw Emperor Li Shimin of Tang, they bowed down directly.

"Speak, what is going on with the dragon head you are holding?"

"Your Majesty, at the hour of the horse today, a dragon head suddenly fell from the sky onto Qinglong Street. Your humble servant does not know what meaning lies behind this! Therefore, I could only report it to Your Majesty."

"If Your Majesty has been startled, your humble servant is willing to accept punishment!"

Qin Shubao told Emperor Li Shimin of Tang everything he knew.

After all, Qin Shubao was merely a mortal, so he had no idea about the matters behind this dragon head; thus, although he confessed everything he knew, he actually knew less than Emperor Li Shimin of Tang.

However, facing this scene, Emperor Li Shimin of Tang soon calmed down.

After all, as an Emperor who had fought his way out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and who had even launched a coup at Xuanwu Gate, Emperor Li Shimin of Tang could not possibly be timid. ===== CHAPTER 947 =====
