In the mythical Dragon Palace, why does the Dragon King like to use the slow-moving tortoise as prime minister?

There are three reasons: the status of turtles in the aquarium is relatively high, not as good as that of shrimp soldiers and crabs; Influenced by Emperor Xuanwu, the author of fairy tales thinks that turtle represents prime minister. The mother of one of the dragon king's children is a turtle, and the turtle prime minister is a consort, so it can be reused naturally.

First, the status of turtles in the aquarium is higher than that of shrimp, soldiers and crabs.

Since ancient times, turtles have been above others. You know, ancient divination used turtle shells instead of shrimp shells. At the same time, the tortoise also represents longevity and wisdom. The Dragon King must need many stars around him. Is the tortoise really unsuitable? Also, shrimps and crabs don't live long and often become human food, but turtles are different. People often can't catch them, and even if they do, they are released.

To put it bluntly, if the Dragon King went out to travel and came back to find that his prime minister, shrimps, fish and crabs, had been killed, he would not be depressed. And to know that the turtle is one of the four spirits, its position in the eyes of ordinary people is very high, as recorded in ancient China:

? A hundred rivers still belong to the giant sea, and a turtle dragon belongs to the scale interface. ? Second, the author of fairy tales was influenced by Xuanwu Emperor.

In fact, many friends don't understand why the Dragon King likes to appoint the tortoise as prime minister. You know, the tortoise moves very slowly. In fact, the reason is that the author of fairy tales was influenced by Emperor Xuanwu. You should know that Emperor Xuanwu was the prime minister of the Heavenly Palace in the eyes of the ancients. There is a tortoise and a snake in the image handed down by Emperor Xuanwu, so the tortoise is equal to the prime minister in the eyes of the people.

So every time I see the fairy tale dragon king, there must be a position of turtle prime minister.

The mother of one of the dragon king's children is a turtle.

According to myths and legends, the dragon king has nine sons, and one of them is Solo, who was born by combining the dragon king and the tortoise, meaning that one of the dragon king's wives is a tortoise, so the prime minister of the tortoise can also be regarded as a relative of the royal family and an appropriate consort. Nature has a different position in the eyes of the Dragon King and has a high degree of trust, so its official position is naturally important.
