Chapter 68: The Unity of Man and Horse

The three bells rang in the Jianzhang Palace, representing that today's court meeting has begun.

Those who were late and didn't arrive were not allowed to enter the front hall, unless they were summoned by Liu Che.

Liu Che sat on his imperial throne, overlooking most of the actual rulers of the Han Dynasty.

What he likes the most is this time of day, even Tian Wei, who looks the most unhappy and has the most opinions about him, can only stand far below him at this time.

The solemnity of the main hall, the bronze lamps of flying cranes, and the huge copper pillars coiled by flying dragons all show his noble status as an emperor.

"Long live Your Majesty."

"Sit down, all of you."

At this time, the ministers didn't have to kneel and bow when they saw Liu Che, but bowed to Liu Che.

is not like the Qing Dynasty in later generations, the royal government regarded the ministers as their own minions, first knelt down, and then all had to stand with their bodies bowed all the time.

After a long time when the spine is bent, people gradually forget that they are a person.

In the front hall, even if it is a four-hundred-stone councilor, he has his own seat, and he will not be so guilty when he participates in the court.

Liu Che had just come to the hall today and knew that Wei Qing was leading a horse, and now the horse was outside the hall.

Fortunately, thanks to Wei Qing's identity as the palace eunuch, these Lang officials and palace guards guarding outside the main hall are all their own people, and it is not a big problem to help Wei Qing take care of the horses.

"Servant Wei Qing, I heard that you brought a war horse to the court today?"

Wei Qing tidied up the hem of his clothes, then stood up and walked to the center of the hall.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister is indeed as His Highness said, bringing a war horse to the palace."

Although many people saw it before, they didn't know Wei Qing's intentions, but now that Wei Qing has admitted it verbally, the accusations are coming.

"Your Majesty, what Wei Qing did is really against etiquette.

It's a bit of grandstanding. ”

On weekdays, Liu Che attaches great importance to Wei Qing, and the ministers who are in the queen's vein have long been unhappy, but they can't have a seizure.

At this moment, they unanimously agreed that it was a good time to lash out at Wei Qing.

As everyone knows, what Wei Qing likes most about Liu Che is that he never goes to the harem to see Wei Zifu.

Liu Che grew up in the deep palace since he was a child, and he saw a lot of those relatives who always haunted his sisters and aunts.

On the surface, it is a family visit, but in fact, there is no one who is not talking about family and country affairs.

After being suppressed by the women in the palace for a long time, Liu Che naturally developed a deep disgust for this indirect or direct behavior.

Tian Wei is such a person, since he was a child, he went to the palace to find the queen mother when he had nothing to do, and all he said was how to put Liu Che in the position of the prince.

It seems that he is wholeheartedly for Liu Che, but when Liu Che sat in the position of emperor, he hated this behavior more and more.

Princess Guantao also entered the palace to see Chen Ajiao when she had nothing to do, she was the eldest princess, and Liu Che also tried to stop her.

As a result, there was such a Wei Qing, her sister was favored in the palace for several years, and she never saw Wei Qing go to the harem to see her sister.

The most important thing is that Wei Qing has the official position of Jianzhang Palace Supervisor, and it is Wei Qing's duty to wander in the palace, even so, Liu Che never saw Wei Qing see Wei Zifu.

Relatives who don't want to borrow the power of harem women are relatives worth reusing, aren't they?

"Hugh has to say that I think Wei Qing must have his own explanation, otherwise he would have violated my will by now.

Wei Qing said let's talk about it, tell me why you didn't experiment with the effect of the horseshoe in Shanglin Garden, ran back to Jianzhang Palace without authorization, and led a war horse to the palace.

If your explanation is not able to satisfy the princes and me, in the end I will punish you, don't say that I am ruthless. ”

Liu Che's ruthlessness can be seen, and he is biased towards Wei Qing in his heart, and he is unwilling to say more good things for Wei Qing.

"Back to Your Majesty, can you let the minister lead the war horse to the palace and demonstrate the minister's purpose today to Your Majesty."

Liu Che nodded, and then Wang Sui on the side immediately shouted loudly.

"Draw the war horse to the temple."

A moment later, a small yellow gate led Wei Qing's war horse up.

"I did as you wished, now show me how to show it."

Liu Che has confidence in Wei Qing, in terms of stability, Wei Qing, a twenty-year-old young man, is much stronger than those sixty or seventy-year-old immortals in the palace.

Wei Qing has always dared not offend anyone in the court because of his family, and even those with lower official positions than him are respectful.

With Liu Che's consent, Wei Qing turned over and got on his horse, and the war horse immediately paced in the center of the hall under Wei Qing's control.

Last night and night, Wei Qing had already mastered the skills of using stirrups, and today he was in the main hall to show off the superb riding skills obtained because of the stirrups.

I saw Wei Qing release the reins with both hands, and his whole body fell to the other side of the war horse's body, and then in front of everyone, he pretended to have a bow and arrow in his hand and made a fake gesture outside the hall.

This action is the same as what Zhang Yuan did last night, but now Wei Qing is the owner of the war horse, and the war horse is more obedient and docile.

When the officials in the main hall all grew their mouths, Wei Qing still didn't stop, he felt that this couldn't shock Liu Che.

After looking around at the ministers present in the main hall, Wei Qing locked his eyes on Gongsun Ao.

"Gongsun Ao Ke has a jade pendant, lend me a favorite."

Gongsun Ao, who is a native of Yiqu, has never seen this kind of riding technique, and when he was stunned, he heard Wei Qing calling for himself, so he subconsciously took off the jade pendant in his waist and threw it to Wei Qing.

After Wei Qing received the jade pendant, he threw it to the ground.

When everyone was wondering what Wei Qing wanted to do, Wei Qing grabbed the reins with all his strength, forcing the war horse to stand upright.

Wei Qing's whole body drooped down, and he reached out to pick up the jade pendant on the ground.

At this moment, he formed ninety degrees with the war horse under his crotch and the ground, when everyone thought that Wei Qing would fall off the horse.

The war horse neighed and returned to its standing position, and Wei Qing also returned to the horse with the help of strength.

waved the jade pendant a few times, and then threw it to Gongsun Ao.

"Your Majesty, how is the minister's riding skills?"

Liu Che was already a little stupid, he was not like other emperors, he didn't know anything about riding.

Liu Che, who has been pregnant with the Huns since he was a child, is more important to him than to study.

"Shocked, I now know that the riding skills of the servant are close to the unity of man and horse."

Hearing Liu Che's praise, Wei Qing laughed and then got off the horse.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister's riding skills have not reached the realm of the unity of man and horse, and the minister's ability to do this is just a night of practice.

Your Majesty, do you think that if our Han cavalry can be like the ministers, after a short period of practice, and have such riding skills, do we still need to be afraid of the Huns? ”
