Legend has it that during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, the King of Jinghe changed the time and number of rain without authorization in order to bet with others. The Jade Emperor decided to kill him. After divination, he found Emperor Taizong, who promised to save him. As a result, Emperor Taizong failed to save the Dragon King, who was beheaded by Wei Zhi. From then on, the Dragon King went to the palace every night to ask Li Shimin for his head, and Li Shimin was awakened by the Dragon King every night and couldn't sleep.

Later, I called two generals, Qin and Weichi Gong, and stood guard outside the door every night. Strangely, the two generals came, but the Dragon King didn't. Emperor Taizong thought he couldn't be allowed to stand guard every night, so he came up with a way to order people to make two mahogany figures according to the appearance of Qin and Weichi Gong, paint them and put them at the door, not to mention that the Dragon King would never go again.
