The next day, Wei Qing was still sleeping in the mansion when he received a summons from the chamberlain, and Liu Che wanted to summon Wei Qing in the Dragon Pavilion.

After receiving the summons, Wei Qing was very surprised, what is the place of the Dragon Pavilion?

Dragon Pavilion is the place where the Han Dynasty enshrined the emperors of the past dynasties, and it was called Zongmiao according to later words.

Not everyone can go to the Dragon Pavilion, in the Western Han Dynasty, only the three princes and nine kings can enter the Dragon Pavilion when the emperor sacrifices to the sky, Wei Qing has never entered, and Li Guang has only been to Emperor Jing and Liu Che twice when they ascended the throne.

Mysterious, highlighting the extraordinaryness of the Dragon Pavilion.

And since Liu Che ascended the throne, there is no precedent for summoning his subordinates in the Dragon Pavilion.

This was a solemn moment, Wei Qing changed into the red tassel armor, and his heart was ...... worried.

"General, where are you going?" Ruoyao was about to go out, but saw Wei Qing just at the door.

Wei Qing frowned and swallowed the words back to his lips, but after taking two steps forward, he still said: "Ruoyao, you, you, forget it, it's better not to go." ”

"Where?" Ruoyao asked weakly.

Wei Qing lifted his spirits, straightened his back and said, "Dragon Pavilion! ”

Dragon Pavilion, very serious, the grand palace is mighty and domineering, just like Liu Bang's domineering spirit when he founded the country, from small to the pavilion three hundred steps in turn, the majestic stone guards on both sides of the steps.

Wei Qing exhaled deeply, he knew that today's day was unusual.

After three hundred steps, Wei Qing came to the main hall, and a smell of incense came to his nose.

Wang Qilin and two Yu Lin Guards lined up on both sides of the Dragon Pavilion.

"General, Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time." Wang Qilin saw that the old leader Wei Qing was coming, and hurriedly greeted him.

Wei Qing was in a nervous mood, and he really didn't know how to describe it, so he took off the sword on his waist and handed it to Wang Qilin.

Wei Qing's move of handing over the sword happened to be seen by Liu Che in the main hall, so he laughed loudly: "Hahaha, no need, I allow you Wei Qing to bring the sword into the hall." ”

After hearing this, Wei Qing felt a big deal in his heart, but his approach was still without a sword, he turned around and walked towards the hall, and when he arrived at the hall, he arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the Dragon Pavilion is the lifeblood of my Han Dynasty, and the minister will not dare to die!" ”

"Hahaha." Liu Che let out a long laugh after hearing this, and then quickly stepped forward to help Wei Qing up.

Wei Qing looked up, Han Gaozu Liu Bang was in the middle of the Dragon Pavilion, and on both sides were Liu Ying, Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty, Liu Gong, former Young Emperor Liu Gong, Liu Hong, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Qi, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, spanning more than a hundred years.

Wei Qing looked around and immediately bowed to the ground three times.

"Wei Qing, I asked you to come to the Dragon Pavilion today just to let the ancestors and ancestors take a good look at you." Liu Che changed his words and continued: "You are handsome, I want to worship you as a general!" ”

Yes!

Wei Qing was suddenly frightened, this matter is a matter of heaven and earth, pay attention, it is to worship the general!

In the history of the Western Han Dynasty, there were only two people who were worshiped by the emperor as generals, one was Liu Bang's general Han Xin in order to fight the world, and the other was Wei Qing, the general, and the rest of the generals or military commanders were appointed in accordance with the official system.

"Your Majesty, the minister just did what the minister should do, and there is no military merit worthy of His Majesty's love so much, I am sure that Your Majesty will take back his life." Wei Qing's hands were trembling, and his heart was trembling.

The glory of being a general is the peak moment of becoming a general, but Wei Qing has also read the story of Han Xin, the founding general, and the height is unbearable, and the things behind will be out of control.

"Wei Qing, you are proud of the Han and ashamed of the Han, if I don't worship, I will be sorry for the ancestors and ancestors." After Liu Che finished speaking, he looked at Liu Bang in the main hall: "Emperor Taizu was besieged by Baiden back then, shame." ”

Wei Qing absolutely can't be this general, so he repeatedly excused himself in his heart: "Please take back your majesty's order, if your majesty must worship, then the minister can only disarm and return to the field." ”

Liu Che was very embarrassed after hearing this, stepped forward to help Wei Qing, and patted Wei Qing on the shoulder and said, "Okay, if I really didn't see the wrong person, then I will discuss this matter with the three princes and nine secretaries." ”

Wei Qing firmly arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to discuss this matter, the ministers can't be so loved, and according to the military merit system, the ministers can't even get a marquis of ten thousand households, how can the general?" ”

Wei Qing is right, just now, his military exploits are really not as good as the marquis of Wanhu, let alone the top general.

Liu Che walked forward thoughtfully, with a smile on his face, and turned his face and said: "Zhang Ou's military merit report has come out, I have already reviewed it, and if it is implemented accordingly, the Tiger Ben Army will make a great contribution." ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has one more thing to do." Wei Qing felt that he should no longer hide the matter of King Cumin.

Of course, Liu Che knew what he was going to report, so he took the lead and said: "You're talking about Powell, the king of cumin, do you think to kill or not?" ”

Of course, Wei Qing advocated not killing in his heart, but in order to prevent some people from talking about things, he said: "Your Majesty, the soldiers are only responsible for capturing them, please make a decision." ”

After coming out of the Dragon Pavilion, Liu Che and Wei Qing went straight to Weiyang Palace.

The three ministers of civil and military affairs on this matter are already waiting.

Liu Che sat on the dragon chair, looked at the civil and military ministers on both sides below, and said, "I have good news for you, Wei Qing not only repelled the Huns in this battle, but also captured Powell, the king of cumin. ”

This is the first time that this news has been revealed, and all the civil and military officials showed surprise after hearing it.

Gongsun Hong and Wei Qing, the head of civil officials, looked at each other, and the two understood each other.

"Tell me, what to do with King Cumin?" Liu Che really wants to ask for everyone's opinions.

Imperial Doctor Zhang Ou was the first to stand up and arch his hand: "Your Majesty, such a thief should be cut with a thousand knives. ”

"Yes, kill it."

"If the Hu people don't kill, it will be difficult to appease the hatred of my Han people."

The officials after Zhang Ou all advocated the killing of King Cumin and his nobles.

The basis for Zhang Ou's first statement was that the military minister Shan Yu's old mother, son, and brother captured by Wei Qing in the Battle of Longcheng were all killed by Liu Che, so Zhang Ou judged that he advocated killing.

Prime Minister Gongsun Hong came out and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks it's inappropriate, it's best to keep it." ”

Gongsun Hong's words immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of most ministers.

In this way, around killing or not killing, the court was divided into two groups of people with Prime Minister Gongsun Hong as the non-killing faction and Imperial Doctor as the killing faction.

Obviously, there are more people who support the imperial historian Zhang Ou, and Zhang Ou even came up with a strategy of telling the people of the world to decide, because he knows that the people hate the Huns the most.

Facing the disputed civil and military officials, Liu Che looked at the taciturn Wei Qing on the side and asked, "Wei Qing, how do you think this matter should be handled." ”

Wei Qing still decided to let Liu Che decide by himself, so he said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, the minister is stupid, and he really doesn't know whether to kill or not." ”
