King Jinghe was killed in the rain, and the king of the four seas flooded Chentangguan. Why is it okay?

In The Journey to the West, there is a Yuan Shoucheng who is good at divination. He gives advice to fishermen fishing in Jinghe River, so that fishermen can catch a lot of fish every day.

Fish is one of King Jinghe's people. He was very angry when he learned about it. He found Yuan Shoucheng and made a bet with Yuan Shoucheng on the number and time of rain.

The dragon king said:? When will it rain tomorrow? How heavy is the rain? ? The gentleman said:? It will be cloudy at dawn, thunder at dusk and rain at noon tomorrow, totaling 3 feet 3 inches 048 minutes. ?

The King of Jinghe is the god of clouds and rain in the sky. He thinks that even if it rains, the sky will pass by him.

But what he didn't know was that the Jade Emperor had a decree that the time and place of rainfall were exactly the same as that of Yuan Shoucheng.

King Jinghe changed the time and number of rain privately in order to win the bet.

In the end, King Jinghe broke the dogma and was beheaded by the Jade Emperor.

In The Romance of Gods, there was no noise in the sea, and Li Gen, a hag patrolling the East China Sea, and Prince Longwang were killed. The Dragon King of the East China Sea sued the imperial court, and later threatened Nezha by flooding Chentangguan. The end result was that Nezha died by cutting the bone and returned his father and meat to his mother.

Seeing this, you may be confused. King Jinghe was beheaded just because he changed the time and hours of rain, while King Sihai even drowned Chentangguan, hurting countless people to threaten Nezha. Why didn't anything happen? Why is the Dragon King so different from the Dragon King?

First, the question of rationality and irrationality.

God Nezha stirred the sea with mixed silk, which made the Dragon Palace shake. Whether Nezha was careless or intentional, it was Nezha who made the mistake before, so Hag Li Gen went ashore to check the situation, and Nezha killed the third prince of the Dragon King, Ao Bing.

This is a causal relationship.

But despite Yuan Shoucheng's accurate divination, he didn't directly find trouble with King Jinghe, but King Jinghe directly found trouble with Yuan Shoucheng, which can be said to be his own fault.

Nezha is on the irrational side, and the Four Seas Dragon King occupies the rational side, so Nezha and them are forced to die. Yuan Shoucheng has this right. King Jinghe committed suicide.

Second, the problem of complaining and not complaining.

When the Dragon King of the East China Sea learned of the tragic death of his son Ao Bing, he did not directly arrest Nezha, but said something to Li Jing: You gave birth to such a wicked son, and you just said that I was wrong. Since he confessed himself, only you can pass! If my son is in good condition, he is also a god; Hag Li Gen is also a royal pen; Do you think your father and son will kill him for no reason? Tomorrow I will play the jade emperor and ask your master for you!

The Dragon King of the East China Sea, including the Dragon King of the Four Seas, didn't think about handling things by himself, but wanted to complain to the Jade Emperor in the sky.

Therefore, whether the Dragon King of the Four Seas flooded Chentang Pass or forced Nezha to die, it's all right, thinking that they have reported to the Jade Emperor.

However, when the King of Jinghe had something to do, he did not report it to the Jade Emperor, but made decisions without authorization. Moreover, he also violated the jade emperor's will, which is definitely his own way to die.

If King Jinghe knew that Yuan Shoucheng had done so many things, he would go directly to heaven to complain to the Jade Emperor, or make a record. In the future, it was for Jinghe Aquarium, and the hours and points of rainfall were changed, just like saying hello in advance. Although the jade emperor disagreed, he said so.

In this way, although King Jinghe is guilty, he will not die.

If the Four Seas Dragon King directly floods Chentangguan without paying back the money, then Xiao Liu believes that the Jade Emperor will certainly deal with the Four Seas Dragon King like the Jinghe Dragon King.

Third, during the period of worship and westward journey, the status of dragons was different.

In the romance of sealing gods, there were no useful people around the jade emperor, which led to the battle of sealing gods and sealing gods.

He was a useless person around him. At that time, the dragon was the jade emperor's strongest fighting capacity. In order to protect them, the Jade Emperor turned a blind eye to their actions of seeking justice from Li Jing and Nezha. After all, it is a great evil to harm the people in Chentangguan because of Nezha.

During the westward journey, the deification was completed, and there were too many immortals around the jade emperor for him to deploy, and the dragon was nothing. They are still needed to make clouds and rain during the period of deification. However, after the deification, Buller Shen Zheng in Wen Zhong's works shouldered the heavy responsibility of making clouds and rain, and the dragon was dispensable.

When a person loses value, then his existence is dispensable.

Fourth, there are problems with willingness and unwillingness.

The Dragon King of the Four Seas sued Nezha, whether it was right or not, of course it was right.

But in the jade emperor's eyes, this is not an unreasonable problem, but whether you, as a subordinate, asked me what to do.

Although the son of the Dragon King of the East China Sea died miserably, he still put the Jade Emperor in the first place, instead of directly taking Nezha, he asked the Jade Emperor first, and then took Nezha.

However, King Jinghe knew that the Jade Emperor had an imperial edict. He did not ask the Jade Emperor for instructions and directly disobeyed the imperial edict.

In the jade emperor's view, King Jinghe is not looking for trouble with Yuan Shoucheng, but looking for trouble with him. How should he rule other dragon kings in the future?

The death of King Jinghe was his own fault, and the Jade Emperor set an example to save his dignity.
