Dragon?

Chapter 18 Capture

There is a Taoist priest in Tianchen Temple, named Jiang Ningxu.

This man has silver beard and white hair, as if he can see through the world, but Li Zi is quite cunning.As dynasties changed, the Tianchen Temple in the suburbs was always hidden, and it was always praised by nobles and common people.

Concubine Jiang believed it, and seeing that the two were destined to have the same surname, she recognized Jiang Ningxu as a godbrother.

The words of the fourth prince caused Jiang Ningxu to be summoned to the palace urgently.

The reason why the emperor summoned this person was to listen to the "legend" about the beast that the fourth prince said.

When Jiang Ningxu heard that the fourth prince was rescued by the dragon, he couldn't hide his joy on his face, and shouted: "It's an auspicious sign, God bless me."

Emperor Zheng Yang frowned quietly.

The current emperor who holds power in his hands does not believe in those gods and spirits.

Right now, he can't tolerate anything beyond his ability to control. ——If someone with a heart uses these fuzzy things to deceive him...

Jiang Daochang brought a few boxes of ancient books from Tianchen Temple with him, and ignored the emperor's indifference.

Thousands of volumes of ancient books describe the same thing obscurely: the dragon is an ancient mythical beast that can bring blessings to the dynasty.It can choose the emperor, and it can stabilize the country; if you get it, you get the world.

"You said it as if I deserve this world." Emperor Zhengyang said with a half-smile.

If you don't answer this question well, you will lose your head.

No one in the world knows that Fu Zhengyang was originally a general of the generation who stomped on the head of the former emperor and plotted against his superiors.

If it is said that the world belongs to him, the blind heavenly way actually refers to a wicked person; if it is said that the world is not his, regardless of whether there is a heavenly way, whoever dares to say this must have a rebellious heart.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Ningxu bowed and made a big bow: "It's all fate."

Your heart is unpredictable.

These four words made the high-ranking emperor laugh.

The four princes were allowed to visit the sick, and the Yu Jiang family and Yu Jiang Ningxu, this crisis is considered to be over for the time being.

Explained in terms of divine beasts, the unreasonable things became reasonable.

Since it was saving people, why didn't the people take credit for it?The fourth prince escaped from danger, and quietly returned to the capital from the deep mountains...the reasons for all of this have been found.

The fourth prince's wound was not treated, and he hung out overnight outside the city gate.Now, seeing that he is fine, he really looks like a lucky man.

Jiang Ningxu met the fourth prince, and did not hide his intention of coming, and asked him to tell him the whole story of seeing the dragon in detail.

The more he listened, the more ecstatic Jiang Ningxu became: hard work pays off.The dragon, the dragon he had been looking for, was finally found.

……

This search was supported by the emperor and the Jiang family.

When Qiao Zhi was caught, he was deep in the mountains with a big straw basket on his back.

The current situation has been rehearsed several times in his mind these days, and when he actually encountered it, he was not so afraid.

——However, Qiao Dandan was in the straw basket.

He has been arguing with it frequently these days, and it doesn't listen to what he wants to do.

First of all, he should have ignored the matter of sending the little boy outside the capital, no matter what difficult body movements it made, no matter how much it chirped, as long as he didn't understand.

Save the boy, they will both die.

If Qiao Dandan was obedient, they might escape as soon as possible.But it just lingered at home and didn't leave. He said whatever he wanted, but it just wrapped its body around the sweet-scented osmanthus tree outside the door, tightly entwined.

"There will be osmanthus trees in the place we live in the future, and I will plant them for you." Qiao Zhi promised it seriously.

Long looked like he really liked the sweet-scented osmanthus tree.

He had no choice, "Dragon Sister", "Dragon Baby", "Dragon Good Egg", "Dragon Obedient", coaxing all kinds of coaxing in soft voices, the dragon cheekily accepted the good words, but the claws holding the tree trunk like a statue.

In the end, Qiao Zhi had to try to make it compromise with brute force.He hugged Pangpanglong, dragged it down from the tree, and stuffed it into the grass basket without any explanation.

Unfortunately, I still can't control the dragon's tail.

It stayed in the grass basket and sneaked towards home when he was not prepared.

"We will have a bigger and better home in the future. We'll live together. Come with me, okay?"

After running and chasing for several days, Qiao Zhi was physically and mentally exhausted.

It is surprisingly persistent, and the small broken thatched cottage is the fragrant bun in its eyes.

Qiao Dandan, like a child who was unwilling to leave home when he was about to go to private school.He didn't listen to what he said, but Chi Chi Chi kept screaming as if crying, and his willfulness was so head-scratching.

But he couldn't blame it, and he didn't blame it until he was caught up by the pursuers.

——It’s just that it’s still in the straw basket.

Feeling the approaching and dense footsteps, Qiao Zhi knew that he could not escape, so he let Qiao Dandan go.

A habit formed in a few days, Long Dekong ran away on the way home without looking back, and ran quite fast.

Let it go now, it should be able to escape the pursuers.After he was arrested, he made up some excuses and didn't tell the location of his home, and Long still had a chance.

Qiao Zhi tried his best to lead people away from home, but when he inevitably bumped into the pursuers... his empty straw basket suddenly became heavier.

He couldn't laugh or cry, just from the weight, he knew clearly——Longsha was back.

The straw basket swayed slightly because of its downward movement.

The obese body made by rich nutrition is not flexible enough to get under the bedding. The cover he prepared is properly applied and hidden, and it looks good. ——Well, so what did you do early?

The guard carefully compared the portraits several times.

The savior mentioned by the Fourth Prince seemed to be a young boy from the mountains.

Even so, no one dared to disrespect him.

Lowering his head in silence, as if he knew nothing, as if he was panicked, Qiao Zhi, who was protecting the tattered straw basket tightly, was ushered into the luxurious royal carriage.

The straw sandals were covered with mud, and the brocade cloth was stained. In his deeply covered black eyes, there was no wave.

In the sky above the capital city, the wind is surging, and there is a faint sign of a changing sky.

When the Seventh Prince of the former dynasty was killed and escaped from the palace, he never thought that he would return to the home where he was born.

This, the exquisite cage that ordinary people yearn for.

……

"found it?"

Concubine Jiang stopped pacing back and forth when she heard the information from below.

After the person came to report, her expression was a little more anxious than before: "Is it a human, not a dragon?"

"Don't worry." Daoist Jiang stroked his beard and said leisurely, "A dragon can transform a man."

"We've been looking for Long for so many years, and it's not like you haven't heard all kinds of false news... I told you not to tell Xian'er these things, I think he was terribly frightened when he was taken away, and was dazed! Concubine Jiang's eyes were filled with tears, she picked up a handkerchief and wiped it away, with a hint of blame in her words.

The Taoist priest picked up the tea and took a sip vainly: "In my opinion, what the fourth prince said doesn't seem to be false."

"Xian'er is a child, what do you know, and you are fooling around with him!"

Thinking of his sick child, Emperor Zhengyang quietly showed his distrust, and Concubine Jiang's chest hurt again: "The Holy Majesty's mind is hard to fathom, and you tell him about the dragon. Now it's all right, I found it." It's a person, and once we try it, we will be suspected by him again."

"You don't know something, it's best to tell the Holy Majesty about this."

"In this hunting, the fourth prince almost died. The Jiang family, which is favored by Gao Sheng, has already been tricked into the head."

After taking off the calm and breezy skin outside, even Concubine Jiang rarely saw Dao Changlu appearing.

What remains the same is her Taoist robes and fairy appearance, but her conversation is no longer unpredictable as before, pointing out the essentials for her very directly.

"The dragon can choose the emperor, and the fourth prince was saved by the dragon. If the sage believes in the existence of the dragon, and believes in the sign of the dragon, you know what it means..."

— what does it mean?

——Wang, the prince has not yet been established.

Concubine Jiang stopped pressing her hand on her chest, and her face became solemn for a moment.

"The key is, where to find a dragon, we have been looking for it for so long..."

"Yes, that person is." Jiang Ningxu interrupted her and said firmly.

After thinking about these words for a while, Concubine Jiang finally realized something: "You mean..."

"Well," he said bluntly, "that person must be."

Everyone has their own thoughts, and the room is silent.

Concubine Jiang's eyes gradually changed from hesitant to firm.

The tea gradually cooled, and Jiang Ningxu spoke again.

"Don't be too pessimistic. I didn't lie to you. Dragons can transform people. You should send someone to observe the recovered child."

As the Taoist priest, it is inconvenient to enter and leave the inner palace, so he cautiously explained: "As soon as there is any news, please send someone to inform me immediately."

Concerned about chaos, before leaving, he was still worried.

It's a big matter, Jiang Ningxu was afraid that Concubine Jiang and Jiang's family would conspire to exclude him, an idle Taoist priest, so he couldn't help asking again and again.

"You know, I am the only one in the world who has the magic weapon that can restrain the dragon."

Concubine Jiang was silent, looking at him a little strangely.

Seeing this, Jiang Ningxu felt that he needed to add something.

Concubine Jiang had the intention of seeing off the guests, so she suppressed her expression and finally nodded at him.
