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

Sang Hongyang didn't say much to Liu Tan, Liu Tan only gave a general idea, and he refused to say the rest even if he knew.

In fact, it was inappropriate for him to tell Sang Hongyang these things. If Liu Che hadn't personally ordered him, he wouldn't have had too much contact with Sang Hongyang.

It is not good for princes and kings to have too much contact with generals, and it is naturally not good to have too many contacts with such important officials.

When Sang Hongyang came, he was full of Buddha-nature, and he felt that he had no love in his life, and he was almost soaring in the daytime. When he left, he seemed to have found the true meaning of life again. rush.

After Liu Tan personally sent him out of the small flower hall, he looked at Sang Hongyang's back, made sure that he had left, then turned to Miao Rui and said, "Go and prepare a congratulatory gift, and congratulate Da Si Nong on paying respects to the prime minister."

Although in Liu Che's place, paying homage is equivalent to ringing the death knell, but on the bright side it is definitely a high promotion, even if Liu Tan is in the northern border country, he has to find a way to congratulate him, let alone he is in Chang'an now.

However, Liu Tan found it funny when he thought about it. He really had never seen any dynasty minister who avoided the position of prime minister like a snake and a scorpion.

Liu Che, a strange man in every sense.

After discussing the matter with Sang Hongyang, Liu Tan originally planned to live in the palace.

It turned out that he stayed in the palace for a day, and three groups of people came to the door in a row. The first group was the prince. Liu Ju's subordinates were promoted and sent some local products from his hometown. Some of them tasted good, so Liu Ju planned to give them away I went to give Liu Tan a taste, but I didn't expect that Liu Tan was not in the Palace of Suiyu.

So His Royal Highness asked someone to ask: "Why don't you live in the palace?"

Liu Tan explained helplessly: "The princes and kings should live in the palace when they enter the capital."

In fact, the princes and kings have no chance to enter Beijing, and there will never be any palaces in Beijing, at most they will buy their own houses.

The second group of people was sent by Liu Che. The next day was the small court meeting, and Sang Hongyang went to court for the first time as the prime minister.

Originally, everyone thought that Sang Hongyang might become haggard, because according to the usual practice, except for Liu Quyu, the other prime ministers would all look haggard on the second day of being worshiped.

In the end, I didn't expect that although Sang Hongyang looked ordinary, he was full of vitality.

Knowing that Sang Hongyang went to see Liu Tan the day before, Liu Che felt that it must have something to do with his son, so he sent someone to the Palace of Suiyu, and naturally found that he was not in the Palace of Suiyu.

After Liu Tan explained it to the little eunuch who was sent, the little eunuch also conveyed Liu Che's words: "Why do you run away from the palace and live here?"

Liu Tan had no choice but to explain again: "It is against the etiquette for princes and kings to live in the palace."

The third group was sent by Chen Ajiao. Although Liu Tan had told Da Changqiu the formula of the pearl mask and the method of applying the mask, Chen Ajiao was worried that something might be wrong and the effect would not be good. The son went over and continued to look at the people below.

Liu Tan explained that there was no problem, but Chen Ajiao was very arrogant and unreasonable: "If you don't come back, I will go to the palace in person, and I might as well live in the palace."

Liu Tan: ...

He really never expected that he could deal with Liu Shi and answer Liu Che, but he couldn't do anything with Chen Ajiao.

But it's normal, Liu Che and Liu Ju, as long as Liu Tan says "It's not suitable for etiquette", they won't say anything else.

Chen Ajiao, she...she is unreasonable!

Liu Tan had no choice but to go back to the palace. Originally, he wanted to tell Chen Ajiao that he would come to see her every day, so it was no different from him living in the palace.

Chen Ajiao said with a look of disgust: "Why is there no difference? The palace is so far away from Weiyang Palace, can you not get tired running around?"

Liu Tan: ...

His palace is right next to Weiyang Palace. The address that Liu Che personally asked at the beginning, and the place Liu Ju personally chose, was to allow Liu Tan to live closer when he came back. Fangdian is closer than some other palaces in Weiyang Palace.

Of course, there is no way to compare with Sui Yudian.

But in the face of these explanations, Chen Ajiao only said: "That is also outside the palace."

Liu Tan had no choice but to patiently say: "My son is already a feudal vassal, and it is against the rules not to return to the vassal for a long time now, we can no longer..."

Chen Ajiao waved her hand: "Don't worry about them, whoever says what is right, you tell the queen mother, it's really giving them face. When you are in danger, you will think of you, and now that the matter subsides, you want to drive you away? It's a good idea!"

Liu Tan choked, and wanted to say something, Chen Ajiao said again: "Okay, don't talk about unruly rules, where are there so many rules in Weiyang Palace, if you are already married, then naturally you have grown up, you can move out , what's wrong with you living in Suiyu Palace now? Or do you want to get married?"

Liu Tan resolutely shut up. Between marrying a wife and living in the palace, he resolutely chose the latter.

Chen Ajiao was a little disappointed and asked, "You really don't want to get married?"

Liu Tan responded in a low voice, he can be obedient in any aspect, but he doesn't want to be obedient in this matter.

Chen Ajiao said: "Even if you don't want to marry a wife, you should take a few people in the house, at least you can leave a queen."

Liu Tan said with a smile: "If someone like Liu Quyao is left behind, it's better not to."

Liu Quyu rebelled and even brought his brothers one by one. Those who participated naturally died. Even those who did not participate were deprived of their titles by Liu Che. Even Liu Sheng's bones were dug up and reburied. He was also deprived of his title. Since he is no longer the King of Zhongshan, he cannot be buried with princely ceremonies, but can only be buried in a random place again.

Chen Ajiao choked. This problem is indeed not easy to solve. Unworthy descendants are not a rare species, especially Liu Tan's son is also surnamed Liu, and there are not many people in the old Liu family who are as law-abiding as her son.

Of course, although Chen Ajiao felt that her son was very law-abiding, in fact, she knew that the only thing Liu Tan was law-abiding was that he never fought for power.

Seeing Chen Ajiao frowning, Liu Tan casually said, "What's more, the prince hasn't married yet."

To be honest, Liu Tan was almost dying of wonder that Liu Ju hadn't married the Crown Princess until now.

Chen Ajiao said that she is considered a grown-up only when she has a family. If the prince is young, it’s fine. Don’t worry, but the problem is that the prince is already 30 years old. Even if the crown ceremony has been held, in the eyes of many people, there is no marriage. Represents immaturity.

Not to mention that the prince has people in the house, those people the prince is happy to give a status to, and if he is not happy, they are nothing, and no one even treats them as serious people.

So even though the prince has several sons and is not too young, in the eyes of the public, he is still a single dog.

Chen Ajiao said very casually: "Your Majesty probably doesn't want the prince to repeat the same mistakes."

Liu Tan was a little surprised: "What?"

Chen Ajiao sneered and said: "Now that I am married to the crown princess, Liu Ju will ascend the throne in the future. In case this original spouse does not have a son, or Liu Ju doesn't like it, it will be very difficult to abolish it. The first emperor suffered from this loss, and he himself suffered too. Such a loss, of course I don’t want my son to suffer too.”

At the beginning, Liu Che and Chen Ajiao's marriage was mostly a combination of interests, and the two of them might have had some affection for each other when they were young.

After all, whether it is Chen Ajiao or Liu Che, the opposite sex who has been seeing them with similar status to them is each other, so it is normal to have a good impression.

It's just that this goodwill changes when it involves interests and power.

Emperor Jing asked Liu Che to marry Chen Ajiao. It must not be something in the legend. In order for Liu Che to become the prince smoothly, the two of them were not engaged when Liu Che became the prince. At that time, Liu Che was already the prince. How could it be necessary for a daughter of a princess to be the prince? help?

This marriage was largely to appease the Empress Dowager Dou who failed to achieve her goal. Of course, in Wang Meiren's view, she certainly liked the background of this daughter-in-law.

It's a pity that after various considerations, the result was such a grievance couple. Liu Che could abolish the empress, but Chen Ajiao couldn't make up with him.

Therefore, Chen Ajiao can only think about it once she is reborn, otherwise she will not be able to think about it for anyone.

Liu Tan didn't know how to start a conversation, and when he was racking his brains, he suddenly heard Chen Ajiao say: "Tan'er, while the queen mother is still here, remember to tell the queen mother what you think, the queen mother will try her best to get you whatever you want. Come."

Liu Tan's expression froze: "What is the mother saying? Now the mother should enjoy the son's filial piety. How can the son bother the mother?"

Chen Ajiao shook her head: "After what happened this time, the queen mother realized that she couldn't go back after all. No matter how well she maintained her eyes, she couldn't deceive anyone. How bright my eyes used to be..."

Liu Tan said decisively: "My mother's eyes are also very bright now."

Chen Ajiao is just feeling emotional for a while, women will always feel sad after realizing their aging, even if they are as proud as Chen Ajiao.

Liu Tan watched Chen Ajiao finish making the mask, and took a closer look, and it was true... No matter how delicate and smooth the skin is, or how graceful the figure is, the eyes cannot deceive people.

He carefully looked at Chen Ajiao's makeup, and always felt that something was missing.

He saw that the order of Chen Ajiao's makeup was indeed quite different from what he knew, at least the make-up part must be different, now only lipstick and blush can be allocated to the make-up group, not even eye shadow, Not to mention eyeliner... Hey, eyeliner!

Liu Tan finally thought of it. Eyeliner is a great addition to the eyes if it is painted well. He seems to have vaguely heard that eyeliner can make people's eyes look brighter, and eye shadow can also make makeup more three-dimensional. There's such a thing as shadows.

Liu Tan began to think about a very important question when he came out of Jiaofangdian—whether it is liquid eyeliner or eyeliner, what are their ingredients?
