I was engaged in infrastructure construction in the Han Dynasty [Transmigration Book]

When Jiang Chong looked over, Liu Tan didn't know why he saw hope in his eyes.

Could it be that this guy still expects himself to save him?

Oh, yes, he gave himself a gift, and he gave it not lightly.

Liu Tan has reason to believe that the gifts Jiang Chong sent were all rewarded by Liu Che. Of course, those specially marked royal gifts will not be given, but other things are not impossible.

Liu Tanxin said that he was so capable of cheating the prince that he couldn't save him.

If the target is changed from the prince to the prince after being rescued, wouldn't Liu Tan be very dangerous?

For an extremely superstitious person like Liu Che, is it useful to explain to him that witchcraft does not exist?Useless!

Liu talked about it, and finally said: "I found this thing by accident, and I don't know exactly why. At first, I thought it was an accident. After many attempts, I finally confirmed that the quicklime can indeed be used." Let the water boil."

Liu Tan felt that he couldn't explain to Liu Che what chemistry was and what the reaction equation of quicklime and water was. Then again, Liu Tan didn't even remember the reaction equation. How could he explain it to Liu Che?

Fortunately, Liu Che didn't really want to pursue the truth. After knowing that this was not a symbol of immortals, he was very disappointed. It was just that the anger at being deceived was greater than the disappointment, which was not so obvious.

Liu Che leaned on the back of the throne and said lazily, "Jiang Chong, can you hear me?"

Jiang Chong bowed down and said, "This minister is so confused that he mistakenly thinks that...the minister is guilty."

"Oh? Then how do you think I will punish you?"

When Liu Tan heard this sentence, he glanced at Liu Che reflexively. From this sentence, he was keenly aware that Liu Che seemed...not so angry with Jiang Chong?

Although it was indeed scary just now, it looks much more peaceful now.

Facing Liu Tan's confusion, Liu Che did not explain.

No matter how he told Liu about this matter, Jiang Chong wasn't entirely to blame?

Jiang Chong was different from Luan Da. Luan Da was an alchemist from the beginning and used some alchemy to deceive him, while Jiang Chong saw some miraculous phenomena and believed that there was a vision in a certain place, which should be a precursor to the birth of immortals.

But Liu Che went to see it excitedly after hearing what Jiang Chong said. Not only did he watch it by himself, but he even brought many people to see it. Well, Mrs. Gou Yi and Liu Fuling were among the many people.

After all, the place with auspicious omens is not far from Chang'an, so he simply took his wife and son out for a walk.

Thinking about it now, at that time, let alone Jiang Chong, even he and everyone with him didn't realize that this was actually a phenomenon that could be replicated.

Everyone can only see that after it rains, the clouds and mist in that place are transpiring, as if a fairy came to the world in the mist.

So if Jiang Chong said that he didn't know about it, it would be quite credible.

Of course, there is also Liu Che's habit of face control, he still likes Jiang Chong, so he is willing to give Jiang Chong a chance.

Jiang Chong was a little relieved when he heard Liu Che's words, and immediately said: "I invite you to go to the Western Regions, and I am willing to pay for my merits!"

When Liu Che heard that he was going to be sent to the Western Regions, he couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Oh? Why do you have to go to the Western Regions if you have made a mistake?"

Jiang Chong immediately said: "A mission should be made according to changing conditions. Take the enemy as a teacher. If things are not in harmony, it is better to make plans first."

Liu Tan was not surprised after hearing this, that's what Jiang Chong said in history.

After Liu Che heard this, he subconsciously looked at Liu Tan. The last time Liu Tan asked to escort Danyang to Wusun, he said the same thing.

I have to say that both Liu Tan and Jiang Chong actually captured Liu Che's acupuncture points.

Although the big man is now showing a shrinking state, trying not to conflict with the Huns, but in fact Liu Che has been eager to fight the Huns.

Now there is a situation between the big Han and the Xiongnu where the enemy retreats and the other advances. One side will shrink and the other will gain an inch. Now it is the Huns who are making an inch.

But Wei Qing and Huo Qubing's victories were too brilliant, and it was precisely because these two men were so capable that every time they set out for an expedition, as long as their subordinates were obedient, it didn't matter how brilliant their subordinates were, this resulted in the two of them disappearing After that, the generals of the Han Dynasty showed a state of fault.

Liu Che wants to select another person who is capable of leading the army to fight in the Western Regions.

In fact, if Liu talked about it, the current big man may not have good generals. Of course, it is fine to compare with Wei Qinghuo Qubing. If such a person can be found casually, how can he be famous forever?

But it's not bad to train them well at the middle level. The most important thing is not to be afraid of failure.

It's a pity that with Liu Che, it becomes impossible to fail.

In Liu Tan's eyes, Jiang Chong is definitely not suitable for leading troops to fight, because this person has bad intentions, and it is difficult for a person with evil intentions to become a famous general.

But Liu Che felt that Jiang Chong was a talent to make, at least he could see this, and he was already better than many people.

Liu Che wanted to cultivate him, and felt that being an envoy to the Western Regions was a hard job and could be regarded as punishment, so he said, "Well, it just so happens that Princess Danyang is about to marry Wusun, so you can go with her for a while, and then go to the Western Regions."

Liu Tan:? ? ? ? ?

He looked at Liu Che in astonishment, this...according to the route of Zhang Qian's envoy to the Western Regions, going to Wusun would not be the same route.

If Jiang Chong were to follow him to see off his relatives, Jiang Chong would at least have to make a big detour before returning to the right path.

Liu Che ignored Liu Tan's astonishment, waved his sleeves and said in a somewhat dispirited voice, "Let's all retreat."

Liu Tan came and left with a dazed expression, feeling that the emperor's mind is really you don't guess.

After leaving Weiyang Palace, when Liu Tan was about to transfer to the harem, Jiang Chong bowed to Liu Tan and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for saving your life."

Liu Tan was taken aback for a moment: "How did I ever save you?"

Jiang Chong stood up and said, "If His Highness hadn't said that he discovered it by accident, I'm afraid His Majesty would really think that the minister is deceiving His Majesty."

Liu Tan: ...

He couldn't answer these words, in fact he didn't know what to say other than that.

Otherwise, how to explain that he, a prince, suddenly knew that quicklime and water can generate heat?

Whose prince is free to play with quicklime, not to mention the prince, I am afraid that the richer family may not even have seen quicklime.

Liu Tan coughed lightly and said, "The authenticity of this matter lies in the heart of the Jiang audience. Father believes that you are innocent. I hope you will not let father down."

Jiang Chong Suyan said: "Your Highness taught, I will never forget it!"

Liu Tanxin said when did I educate you, I was warning you not to engage in feudal superstitions in your free time, otherwise you will be exposed by me!

However, at this time, Jiang Chong may not have the ambition to kill the prince. Now he may just want to climb up by any means, hoping to get more power and property.

As if it's not nice to convict someone for something they haven't done yet.

Thinking of this, Liu Tan said softly, "Since my father has agreed, please go back and prepare carefully. It may be okay to have a large team all the way to Wusun. Afterwards, I have to bear it myself when I go to the Western Regions."

Jiang Chong immediately said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I have already made preparations. To be honest, even if there is no matter today, I will ask Your Majesty to send me to the Western Regions."

Liu Tan is not quite sure whether what Jiang Chong said about preparing for the future is true or not, but since he said it, let's just believe it.

Of course, it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, anyway, Jiang Chong is going to Wusun with him, if Liu Tan really thinks this person is restless, there is always a way.

In Chang'an, he was tied up, and when he was on the road...it was not difficult for a person to suddenly fall ill and die suddenly.

As long as his hands and feet are clean, Liu Che will not have to investigate thoroughly just for Jiang Chong.

Of course, if possible, Liu Tan didn't want to go this far. Even if he wanted to kill him, he hoped that Liu Ju would do it himself. After all, the disaster of witchcraft had nothing to do with him.

Liu Tan put this matter behind him, and when he returned to the Palace of Suiyu, he began to plan to invite Liu Che to see the cement road.

The cement road was just for Liu Che to see something new, the emperor couldn't make a trip all the way just to see it, right?

Liu Tan thought about it, and his manor seemed to be nothing unusual, unlike the small bridges and running water built by others, which were all kinds of exquisite, what Chen Ajiao gave him was, and it is still what it is now, so it’s okay to invite Liu Che to watch the scenery .

As for singing and dancing...it seems to be average, at least in Liu Tan's opinion, and the only person he entertained with singing and dancing was Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan's reaction... I really don't want to mention it.

Liu Tan rested his chin and wrote and drew on the table for a long time with some headaches, only to find that the only thing he could do was make fuss about eating.

Thinking of this, Liu Tan sighed. He himself felt that he seemed quite boring, and he didn't know what he was messing around all day long.

Forget it, just eat what you eat, um, but you can’t have too many new things, it’s better to have just one or two, in case Liu Che doesn’t like it and thinks it tastes bad, there are other things to eat.

While thinking, Liu Tan listed a series of dish names on the paper, and after finishing writing, he thought he was a dish name applicant.

Although there is a lot of writing, there is actually too little that can be done here.

There are many dishes that rely heavily on seasonings, especially chili peppers, but these days, chili peppers do not know where to grow freely. Liu Tan vaguely remembers that chili peppers seem to have been brought from America.

Now Dahan actually has spicy condiments, but in fact, the taste is still different from that of chili, and the taste cannot be produced.

Some dishes are not particularly dependent on seasoning is also possible.

Liu Tan finally ordered three flavors of dishes. One looks simple but takes a lot of time and ingredients. Well, there is no cabbage these days, so we can only use big green vegetables instead. It’s okay, wait until the final plate. Just make it look better.

Then came the pork ribs, but the ribs had to be lamb chops. These days, nobles don’t eat pork very much, because pork has a strong smell. Before Liu Tan was a bit greedy for pork, he asked someone to get a portion.

The chef in the palace, among other things, should be regarded as the highest level in this dynasty.

Liu Tan tasted it after finishing it... how should I put it, it basically cured his problem of greedy pork.

So now basically chicken, duck, beef and mutton are eaten more, oh, when eating beef, you have to restrain yourself, and you can't publicize that cattle are an important production tool, and the slaughter of cattle is forbidden among the people.

Then there are refreshing fruits. Liu Tan wanted to make a fruit salad on a whim. Although there is no salad dressing at this time, and even the origin of the salad dressing may not have been produced yet, this thing is actually quite easy to make, but it is necessary It is egg white sugar and white vinegar.

The taste of this one may not be as good as the one with various additives added in later generations, but it is still fresh, right?

Liu Tanshun also added this, and finally he even listed a simple version of pudding.

After he finished it, he glanced at it and started writing the recipe.

But as he was writing, he was a little confused. This thing... how can he write it?

Generally speaking, western food and western pastries have specific ratios, but for Chinese food, apart from the basic ingredients, there is always only one other thing, the right amount!

This is very difficult. There are many things he knows when he does it himself, but how to tell others?

In the end, Liu Tan rolled up his sleeves and ran to the kitchen very simply—although he didn't do it himself, he could direct it!

However, this command encountered difficulties at the beginning-the production of salad dressing requires the use of white vinegar.

But white vinegar... where is it now?

The author has something to say: Liu Li speaks outrightly: How can you do things like trying dishes by yourself?
