dragon trainer

The next day, it was time for Rong You to take a big bath again.

The so-called great bath means that the dragon royal family transformed into a dragon body to bathe in the mermaid palace.Because the body of a dragon is generally huge, it is difficult for Shenlong to complete the whole cleaning process by himself, so hundreds of famous attendants are needed to serve him.Over time, the big mu itself has become a kind of ritual-like activity. Every time the emperor takes a big bath in the Mermaid Palace, that day will become a national non-statutory holiday.

"His Majesty is enjoying today, why are you still working?" People will use this reason as an excuse, and generally they don't work this afternoon.

Of course, after the emperor himself finished his bath, he was actually still working there...

Mermaid Palace.

Thousands of gold coins per milligram of spices are being poured into the pool without hesitation, creating a steaming mist.Outside the double curtain, attendants in snow-white uniforms knelt quietly on the cushions.

The door curtain moved suddenly, and the young emperor strode on the wooden floor, making a regular and steady sound.

He is communicating with his Acting Minister of the Exchequer (Fu Ding), his voice is serious and magnetic, with a rare lightness: "Of course, I know this is difficult, so I entrust you to do it. Fu Qing, I can't find anyone more competent than you anywhere."

Today's foreman bowed his head before the emperor, and while unbuttoning his coat, hinted that he should put down the communicator.

The foreman was actually thinking in his heart: The rumors are indeed true!Your Majesty still trusts the Fu family very much. It seems that the Fu family's favor will continue for at least two generations... Lord Fu Ding is indeed very resourceful.

The emperor then hung up the communication, took off all his clothes and put on a simple bathing cape, and then walked a few steps along the edge of the pool, looking for a place to enter the water.

The incarnation of the Shenlong is a dignified and sacred process, and each attendant bowed his head deeply, waiting quietly.

It was not long before they heard the murmuring of water, which lasted for some time, until the holy colossus was completely submerged.

His Majesty the Emperor—the black dragon, swimming beneath the surface of the water.

Still in the distance, everyone can see his slender and smooth figure, like a roll of silk and satin wandering wantonly in the water.After he turned over comfortably, the dragon's tail swayed gently in the mist, like a vigorous condor in the misty sky, and came to the pool in the blink of an eye.

Although Longchi is called a "Pond", in fact, the size of it can be called a "lake" for human beings, but it is still too narrow for His Majesty the Emperor, perhaps comparable to a swimming pool.

After he came to the shore, the dragon's head was lifted up from the water, and the rushing water snaked down from the dragon's horns and mane. A pair of dark dragon eyes were like black pearls washed by snow water.The pitch-black dragon scales look delicate and smooth up close, with each dragon's own unique texture on them, reflecting a cold and proud radiance everywhere.

The attendants lined up in two teams and stepped forward one after another.

At this time, another person suddenly came from outside the curtain, and only the sound of his steady footsteps could be heard.

A thought flashed through the foreman's mind like lightning: Who would dare to break into the Mermaid Palace without being notified when His Majesty is taking a bath?

The next moment, the emperor's laughing voice came from the pool: "Uncle Xiao Ming, what is the crime for peeking at the emperor's bath?"

Behind the curtain, Prince Ming's voice was deep and magnetic: "What's the crime for peeking at the Prince's bath?"

Hearing his voice, the foreman lowered his eyes again and continued to perform his duties in silence.

But the emperor couldn't help laughing twice, and jokingly said: "Under the whole world, is it the king's land? Your bathroom is also my site, why do you want to punish me?"

Prince Ming said: "Oh, it makes sense. Your whole body belongs to me, and the dragon body also belongs to me. Why do you want to punish me after just looking at it?"

The emperor stopped talking, as if he didn't want to continue to refute.Following the uproar, half of his dragon body leaned lazily on the shore, a dragon claw lightly grabbed the railing, and then the translucent inner eyelids closed upwards, showing his relaxed expression.

At this moment, the foreman noticed that a servant's movements were not in place, and was about to pat him on the shoulder when he suddenly saw a sharp cold light!

In the blink of an eye, no one had time to react. The attendant pulled out a short sword about eight centimeters from his sleeve, and rushed straight at His Majesty the Emperor by the pool——

There was a clang.

The Black Dragon Emperor tilted his head slightly, and leaned out from the pool. He shook off the water droplets on his body, and then gracefully stretched out his front paws, pushing the daring assassin down on the steps.

At this time, everyone in the Mermaid Palace was shocked beyond words. The foreman scrambled and scrambled to touch the highest-level alarm facility, and the electronic information was transmitted to the Forbidden Army at super-light speed in an instant... The guards guarding the gate of the palace kicked Come in!Fearlessly rushing in to block the black dragon, only then did he realize that His Majesty the Emperor had completely restrained the assassin.

His Majesty the Holy Emperor of the Galactic Empire was assassinated in the Mermaid Palace!The sky is falling apart, and the army is in chaos.

There were only two people who were not confused, Prince Ming came out from behind the curtain, frowned slightly, and said, "Xiaoyou?"

The emperor shook his mane inexplicably, the running water on his body had pooled by the pool, he flicked his dragon toe, casually turned the assassin over, and said, "What the hell...what are you doing here?"

The dagger didn't even pierce the dragon scales on his body, but left a very shallow scratch—Rong You didn't realize that he had encountered an assassination at all, but felt that the human being in front of him was stupid and pitiful.

However, the assassin convulsed from the huge psychological pressure, and wailed in a non-human voice: "The empire... can no longer afford a second emperor of holy mourning!" After speaking, he foamed at the mouth, and his vital signs declined sharply.

The emperor casually hooked this man and threw it in front of the imperial army, then retracted himself into the pool and said, "Everyone go out, it's fine."

After finishing speaking, Prince Ming showed some helplessness and amused expression, glanced at the door, found the back door of Mermaid Palace from behind the curtain and left.

Then the Minister of Royal Affairs ran in from the outside, and before he had time to stand still, he knelt down in front of Longchi with a plop, and shouted: "Your Majesty——!!!"

At the end of March, Emperor Da Mushi suffered an assassination.According to the emperor's oral instructions, the assassination was not announced to the public, and only the imperial army and the cabinet ministers knew about it.

But the emperor didn't realize the seriousness of this matter until the cabinet ministers pleaded guilty and knelt outside the palace for a long time; the military department placed three times the number of forbidden troops in the palace; death; all the attendants in the Mermaid Palace were detained pending trial; the Supreme Court of the Empire dispatched all senior officials to investigate the assassin...

Rong You felt that they were making a fuss out of a molehill, so he asked Prince Ming, "Is it necessary to be so serious? My scales are not injured, this cannot be an organized and premeditated murder, maybe that person is insane."

Di Ming said: "Your attitude belongs to your attitude, and the attitude of the courtiers should be correct. My opinion is similar to yours, but behind this incident may not be a simple assassination. The only sentence the assassin said puts the matter directly. Deducted to partisan struggle."

Rong You looked confused: "Is this a party dispute?"

"If you want to suppress things, deal with the two high-ranking members of the Jianai faction as soon as possible, no matter what the name is." Prince Ming said, "Partisan struggles have always only needed an excuse. If there is no excuse, they will create one themselves. Once it starts A group of demons are dancing wildly, it will not be easy to suppress it."

The emperor thought for a while, then sent the imperial scribe to start drafting the edict, and smiled casually in the gap: "I am really pitiful, someone wants to kill me, the first thing I have to worry about is my servant... Uncle Xiaoming, Don't you comfort me?"

"I see that you don't need to be comforted, but you have to find a way to suppress such a happy state of mind." Prince Ming said with a smile, "Is it so interesting?"

Rong You said: "It's very interesting! It's the first experience in my life! Why did it happen so quickly, I didn't even have time to think about it..."

Di Ming also laughed, reached out and flicked Rong You's forehead, and said helplessly, "Little guy."

Because of Prince Ming's foresight, the emperor prepared in advance to suppress the struggle between the Huaisheng and Jianai factions. This party struggle was still in its infancy, but it was strangled to death by the force from above.

As the assassin's identity began to be investigated, the Emperor himself was left alone, as he had to deal with the aftermath that ensued.

First of all, the ministers began to write letters collectively, asking the emperor to establish a heir... I wish Rong You could leave the dragon seed the next day after marrying his wife, and immediately have a normal and healthy baby dragon as the heir!Yes, there are only two requirements: normal and healthy!An emperor who can live well is already a qualified emperor!

Rong You still wanted to make trouble with them as he did last time, just delaying the time and not expressing his opinion.But this time the problem was too serious: his Minister of Royal Affairs almost wanted to live in front of his bedroom and hang himself every day.

Rong You couldn't laugh or cry, he could only listen to Fu Ding's suggestion, and said: "Zhen will pay attention, next year at the latest."

But what he will do "next year", he didn't make a promise...

The emperor's cleverness in this aspect has not been noticed yet.Compared with his indifferent and even annoyed attitude before, the officials are quite satisfied with his statement this time - after all, he is a young emperor, and he doesn't like to be talked about by his officials when it comes to family affairs. It can be regarded as the commonality of the Dragon Royal Family.

Once again successfully suppressing these troublesome courtiers, the emperor returned to the palace in a good mood, just in time to see his uncle Xiao Ming playing chess with Isidore, and felt that there was an indescribable indifference and romantic interest in this scene .

Rong You sat across from him and looked at him, her heart gradually calmed down, only an indescribable love was there, and she said, "I won't accept you for the rest of my life, okay? Just like my grandfather, I will adopt several nephews and nieces to come and raise them together. A most suitable successor."

Prince Ming turned his head, looked at the emperor intently with azure eyes, and smiled after a long time: "Okay."
