When Taoist Xue realized that he had gained a lot from his spiritual practice, Zhong Patou also left home with his wife and children and returned to his hometown.

Of course, in addition to the gifts he wanted to bring to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, Zhong Xingwen also prepared his luggage and the gifts from Taoist Xue. He would find an opportunity to find an excuse to leave after arriving at his father-in-law and mother-in-law's house.

The reason was also prepared, just as I said to my wife the day before, I went to see an old master.

Guan Xinrui and his party, who still knew nothing about what happened in the Haiyu County Government Office two days ago, had also arrived at the county seat of Beihai this morning.

After the carriage and its entourage entered the city gate, the hustle and bustle of the county town suddenly became apparent. Guan Xinrui sat in the carriage, holding the box and opening the curtain to look at the prosperity of the county town, and a smile could not help but appear on his face.

Although Haiyu County is not a small county and has its own lively and prosperous scene, it may be more of a psychological feeling and cannot be compared with the county town in Guan Xinrui's heart.

"Master, should we find a place to eat or go to the inn first?"

"Go to the Xinwang Mansion first!"

"yes!"

Guan Xinrui was in a hurry to get to the palace, so of course his men didn't dare to delay and went straight to Prince Xin's palace.

When he came to the county this time, Guan Xinrui, who was the magistrate of Haiyu County, had no intention of meeting his immediate superior, the county governor.

The Daegu Dynasty implemented a system of enfeoffment. Those who were enfeoffed enjoyed a portion of the tax revenue from the enfeoffed land but did not have much administrative power.

Beihai County is the fiefdom of King Xin, but King Xin usually lives in the palace in the capital and does not return to Beihai County often. After all, the capital is the real center of power.

When King Xin came back to Beihai County this time, he came to hide out. At the same time, he also came to see the situation of the fiefdom in the past two years.

After all, the blessed land of Beihai County was not just the basis for his extravagant enjoyment.

This morning, King Xin finished his breakfast and was drinking tea in the backyard while listening to a woman singing solo.

This woman is a famous actress in the county's big opera troupe, but no matter how famous or outstanding she is, she is still just an actress, and she dare not make the slightest mistake in front of the prince.

Although she only faced a few people, not counting the servants around the prince, she only faced the prince alone, but the woman's singing style and excitement level were no weaker than when she faced a large audience.

Of course, when one person sings an opera, there must be multiple people playing musical instruments, and the troupe leader is also waiting nearby.

After hearing the climax of the opera, King Xin put down his tea cup and applauded.

"Okay, good singing!"

At this time, a servant hurried over and whispered a few words in King Xin's ear. The latter didn't take it seriously at first, but after hearing clearly, he smiled and replied without waiting for the servant to finish speaking.

"County Magistrate Haiyu? A small magistrate dares to come directly to me and offer a holy treasure. Hey, just say no and send him away."

A small local magistrate is nothing and not worth seeing.

The servant quickly added something.

"Your Majesty, Guan Xinrui, the magistrate of Haiyu County, is Liu Yanchong's son-in-law. Are you really missing?"

After hearing this sentence clearly, King Xin immediately raised his hand.

This raised her hand to indicate that the woman who had been singing hard just now stopped immediately.

King Xin looked at the person who came to report and asked with a little surprise.

"Magistrate Haiyu is Liu Yanchong's son-in-law? When did it happen?"

The servant had no choice but to answer.

"It happened last spring, but Your Majesty, you were in the capital at the time. I heard that Guan Xinrui was ranked high on the gold list, and it was because he had no background connections, otherwise he would have been in the top three."

King Xin nodded slightly.

"Then you really should meet him and take him to the living room to wait."

"yes!"

After the servants left, King Xin of course stopped listening to the opera for the time being and sent several members of the troupe away.

When Guan Xinrui was brought into the palace, he happened to see the theater troupe leaving. He couldn't help but take a few more glances at the leading lady, and then went into the living room to wait.

This made Guan Xinrui somewhat nervous. He put the box on the coffee table in the hall and straightened his clothes.

After a while, King Xin came from outside. He was tall, half a head taller than Guan Xinrui, and his face was angular. He had a short beard on his upper lip and chin. He was smiling when he entered. Gives people a light pressure.

"Lord Guan, I was resting in the backyard. I came over when I heard you were coming. I wonder if Lord Liu is in good health?"

Guan Xinrui listened to the thoughts swirling in his ears. In his opinion, King Xin's straightforward question was his reality.

The other party didn't mention the so-called treasure, and he didn't ask about Guan Xinrui himself. In the eyes of the prince, Guan Xinrui was nothing, and only his father-in-law was worthy of concern.

Guan Xinrui stood up and saluted solemnly.

"I'm going to pay my respects to the prince. Thanks to the prince, my father-in-law may be in good health and have good food and lodging!"

"Oh, that's good, that's good, come, serve tea, come, Mr. Guan, please sit down!"

"Your Majesty, please!"

In fact, King Xin has been sizing up this magistrate of Haiyu County. He has to say that he is a talented person. He has a short beard and is somewhat elegant without official uniform at the moment.

When the prince sat down, Guan Xinrui did not sit down. Instead, he picked up the wooden box and explained his intention.

"My lord, in addition to paying homage to your lord's glory this time, I also have treasures that I want to present. Such treasures can only be owned by the True Dragon Royal Family!"

"Oh? What is it?"

King Xin was slightly puzzled. Guan Xinrui had deliberately kept it secret before. He knew that with his father-in-law's relationship, he would definitely be able to see the prince, so he said with a smile.

"This thing was obtained by our fishermen from Haiyu County in the sea. They are two dragon scales!"

As soon as these words came out, King Xin and the people in the palace around him couldn't help but look shocked. Many people even suspected that they had heard wrongly. Guan Xinrui continued to speak without waiting for others to ask.

"It is said that the wind in the sea changed on the day when Dragon Scale went out to sea. Before the sun rose, the fishermen's nets were already covered with bursts of glow. It was really unpredictable and magical. It is precisely because Beihai County is the fiefdom of the prince that there is Dragon Scale. Wait for the treasure to be born!”

King Xin frowned. What Magistrate Haiyu said was a bit ridiculous, but he dared to come here and make such a joke?

"open to take a look!"

"yes!"

Guan Xinrui gently opened the wooden box, revealing the black satin inside, and then peeled off the satin little by little, revealing the translucent light yellow scales inside.

King Xin did not stand up, but the servants next to him came over.

There were indeed two things in the box that looked like scales, but King Xin's brows did not relax.

"Is this a dragon scale?"

Wouldn't it be two glazed tiles?

"It's absolutely true. Please appreciate it first. Your Majesty will have his own way to prove it!"

King Xin looked at Guan Xinrui and reached out to pick up one of the scales.

The moment the fingers touch the scales, there is a slightly cold feeling on the fingertips, and a special breath seems to be transmitted back from the scales along the fingers, arousing a special feeling of swaying breath in the body.

King Xin was slightly startled, and he directly took the scales in front of him and looked at them carefully. Only then did he realize that the scales were not only very light, not comparable to ordinary colored glaze, but also the surface was flawless, even better than delicate white porcelain!

In addition, the scales are not completely hard and have a soft yet tough feel.

To be honest, even if it is not a dragon scale, just the details found during admiration are enough to show that this thing is a treasure.

What's more, the first feeling when I first bought it was so special. Even if I hold it in my hand, this strange feeling has not faded. It will become obvious when you feel it carefully.

This is a feeling of feeling a special aura, but King Xin is not a practitioner and cannot describe it.

Guan Xinrui didn't speak for the time being, just watching from the side. After all, it was the prince who was well-informed. Just by looking at his expression, he knew that the other party had taken a liking to this treasure.

After a long time, King Xin came back to his senses and looked at the other scale in the box, and then looked at Guan Xinrui.

"Master Guan, how can you prove that this is a dragon scale?"

Guan Xinrui had a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, we have to wait until dark. It would be better to have a basin of water then!"

"Does it have to be dark for so long? Why is that? Don't lie!"

Guan Xinrui didn't dare to neglect and hurriedly explained everything.

"Back to my lord, dragon scales will emit brilliant light in the dark, and they can even cause scale ripples in the water. The light emitted will appear as if the dragon shape is dancing around!"

"Oh, why night?"

King Xin nodded and looked at the people around him.

"Did you hear that? Go do it!"

"yes!"

Guan Xinrui probably thought about what the prince was going to do. Sure enough, it didn't take long for many people to come in carrying bamboo poles. Two bamboo poles were in a group with black cloth wrapped around them.

The servants of the palace used bamboo poles and black cloth to block all the light in the entire living room.

But the room did not become dark all of a sudden, because at this moment, the light on the dragon scales became obvious.

The servant who was about to light the lamp paused.

No matter King Xin or the guards and servants around him, they all had expressions of disbelief, and Guan Xinrui also stared at the dragon scales, no matter how many times he looked at them, they still felt so beautiful.

King Xin picked up both scales and looked at the treasure in the radiance at this moment. It was so flawless, better than bright jewels, jade, gold, silver and agate!

A basin of water was brought up and placed on the ground.

"Please also ask the prince to put the dragon scales in the water!"

King Xin nodded, and eagerly put a piece of dragon scale into the basin.

The next moment, the water in the basin slowly became turbulent, as if there was a tide composed of microwaves, and at the same time, there were indeed rippling streams of light shining out.

This stream of light is projected on people, on the surrounding walls and black cloth.

Obviously it cannot form a complete dragon, but this light text gives people the feeling that it is part of a giant dragon. This dragon is dancing in the nine heavens!

King Xin's eyes widened and he couldn't help but take a few deep breaths.

"Okay, okay, okay! Good baby, it really is a dragon scale, it really is a dragon scale!"

At this moment, when I think back to what Guan Xinrui said before, I don’t think it’s out of the ordinary but it’s particularly pleasing to the ears!

I have heard many legends and myths about monsters, but in reality, there are not many magical things. I didn't expect to see real dragon scales today.

Moreover, the feeling brought by holding the dragon scales in his hand also made King Xin extremely concerned!

The emperor is known as the Son of Heaven, and he is also known as the True Dragon in the World. Although they are both high reputations in the world, there is also a saying that leading people to control the world is like a dragon in the world.
