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

Liu Tan glanced at Lu Xuan, although Lu Xuan looked quite normal at this time, but Liu Tan seemed to see that his ears were drooping, and he was very disappointed.

When returning to the main hall, Liu Tan pinched Lu Xuan's face, Lu Xuan took his hand, took advantage of the opportunity to bow his head and kissed the empress while the empress was not paying attention, then stood up straight and bid farewell.

Liu Che and Chen Ajiao didn't want to keep him for anything.

After Lu Xuan left, Liu Tan had no choice but to move the hot pot that he was going to eat with him to add a supper for the empress and prince.

In fact, Lu Xuan was not wronged when he left, because not only him, Liu Ju was sent back by Liu Che after eating supper.

Liu Ju originally thought that he could stay, but unexpectedly, he was sent back like this.

Liu Che thought very simply, if Liu Ju would not go, who would preside over the court?

After the emperor and empress were settled, Liu Tan remembered a very important thing while lying on a relatively unfamiliar bed - the ice sculptures only look good when the sun comes out.

However, the time of today's grand ceremonies is generally before the sun has fully risen, and everyone has already arrived.

Liu Che stayed with him...he had to go back if he couldn't see the ice sculpture tomorrow.

So why did he have to stay?

Since Liu Che stayed, of course he had to watch the ice sculptures during the day before leaving, so in the first half of the next day's court meeting, everyone was basically reporting some unimportant things to the prince.

In fact, the first day of worship is to bring everyone back to their senses. After all, post-holiday syndrome does not only happen after the holiday.

The next day, Liu Tan accompanied the empress to look at the ice sculptures again. I have to say that the ice sculptures in the sunlight are not necessarily more beautiful than yesterday, but the reflected light is obviously more magnificent.

Especially this ice sculpture has many different views in one day.

And this time they didn't have to go to the scene to see it. The windows of Liu Tan's palace had been replaced with transparent glass, so it was interesting to sit in the room and watch the ice sculptures outside being dyed in various colors by the sun.

Liu Che stayed until Chen Shi and left. He still wanted to show his face at the court meeting, but before he left, he said that he would come again.

Chen Ajiao simply stayed in the palace for a day.

In the past, she felt that her son's palace was too spacious, and the furnishings were not gorgeous enough, so she always felt that her son was a little wronged living in the palace, so she always wanted Liu Tan to stay in the palace. At first, she was worried that Liu Che would not Agreed, and later with Liu Che's acquiescence, Chen Ajiao simply refused to let Liu Tan go.

But after arriving at the palace today, she found that Liu Tan had a lot of interesting things here, especially some semi-finished products made by him, which looked very interesting.

Not to mention her, even Liu Che thinks the Northern Palace is interesting.

As a result, Lu Xuan stayed in his palace for several days in a row, looking at the courtyard wall of the palace in the northern region every day, almost turning into a watchdog.

However, no matter how much the Empress Dowager liked Liu Tan, as the weather got warmer day by day, it was time for Liu Tan to pack up his things and prepare to leave.

Before leaving, he designed an underground palace for Chen Ajiao.

The underground palace is not very high, about five or six meters high. It is basically a place for Chen Ajiao to place various ice sculptures. He even divided the underground palace into several different parts and turned it into an ice sculpture amusement park.

There is no way, things like underground palaces are a bit unlucky these days, and it is not suitable to make them into other amusement places. Since they exist for ice sculptures, they should be made into various ice sculptures.

Liu Tan chose dried flowers for all the flowers and plants inside, and there is no need to use dried flowers. Not to mention that there is no light below, no flowers will survive well. Even if there are flowers that can adapt to complete darkness, they can't stand the temperature.

During this process, Liu Tan even made ice flowers, using different dyes for different parts, and finally glued them together with water, which is not difficult.

Liu Tan wrote down all his ideas before leaving, but many of them have not been tested, but it doesn't matter, anyway, he can try it after returning to the northern border country, if he can write again.

It is said that communication is inconvenient these days, but it definitely does not include his communication with Chang'an.

So before the Manchu civil and military couldn't bear it anymore, Liu Tan took the initiative to write a letter requesting to return to the vassal.

Liu Che was naturally reluctant to part with him in every possible way, not to mention Liu Che, even Liu Zheng was very reluctant to part with him.

So after reading his memorandum, Liu Che called him into the palace and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Huo Guang must have arranged the spring plowing a long time ago, and you can't do anything when you go back now."

Liu Tan said: "The civil and military patience of the Manchu Dynasty is almost at its peak. It's better for Erchen to leave before they are ready to force Erchen to leave. Otherwise, it will be ugly to be recorded."

After he finished speaking, Liu Che subconsciously glanced at Sima Qian who was at the side. Sima Qian was writing with his head down, but after feeling the emperor's gaze, he raised his head and glanced at the emperor, his father and his son.

Liu Tan immediately said: "Those who record history should maintain fairness. Since it happened, it is natural to write it down..."

But before he finished speaking, Sima Qian said softly: "Your Highness, don't worry, I don't have enough paper at home, some things are not worth remembering, so I won't remember them."

Liu Tan:? ? ?

God is not enough paper!

However, even if Sima Qian wanted to release water for him, Liu Tan did not intend to stay.

In Chang'an, he was just tossing and tossing, eating, drinking and having fun. It sounds like he can often come up with new gadgets, but after a long time, the whole person may become useless, and there is only a little vision left.

Although he likes to make money, what he likes more is to let the common people make money, revitalize the economy, and make everyone's life better.

Anyway, since arriving in the northern border country, his hobbies have become like this.

Liu Che and Liu Ju could only sigh, and agreed to his request.

But since he met Sima Qian, Liu Tan couldn't help but ran to Sima Qian's mansion to meet him before leaving.

Sima Qian was obviously very surprised when he heard that Liu Tan had come, so he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Your Highness, if you have something to do, you can just call your ministers over, why do you need to come here in person?"

Liu Tan said with a smile: "You have a lot of things to do, and I'm an idler, so I'll take a trip every now and then."

Sima Qian immediately gave him the first seat, and Liu Tan sat down and said, "I'm not going around with you, I just came here this time to ask if you can write the biography of Huo Zhi?"

After hearing this, Sima Qian said immediately: "The official has not written it yet. Princess Yi'an woke up the official with a blow to the head, and the official..."

Liu Tan interrupted him and said: "Princess Yi'an... I don't have a long-term vision on this matter, so what's wrong with Huo Zhi? Why look down on Huo Zhi? If there is no Huo Zhi, the country can only be like a stagnant pool of water, without vitality. Now the prime minister is here Running around for the goods, it can be seen that the goods are not a bad thing, you should write or write."

Sima Qian's eyes lit up when he heard it: "Your Highness thinks it should be written?"

Liu Tan nodded seriously: "It should be written."

This can not only be used as a reference for future generations, the most important thing is that it can also become a very, very important historical material. It has very important reference value for the study of the economy of the Great Han Dynasty, and Sima Qian's history books can be regarded as a model for future generations. He wrote the history of future generations Only recorders will follow suit and write it down. If everyone can be guided to write it down, practitioners who study history in future generations will surely lose two hairs.

When Liu talked about this, he couldn't help sighing, seeing how much he was thinking about the teachers and students of future generations.

The only thing that is not sure is that the world he lives in should be regarded as a story, and I don't know if it will have an impact on future generations.

Sima Qian seemed to be greatly encouraged, looked up at Liu Tan and asked: "Then... If the lower official writes it down, can I ask Your Highness to correct the mistakes?"

Liu Tan paused: "This... I may not have the ability."

Sima Qian admired him very much, and he also respected Sima Qian very much. His "Historical Records" has been passed down through the ages, and Liu Tan... How can Liu Tan compare?

Sima Qian immediately said: "Your Highness is too self-effacing. If you can't do it, no one in this world will be able to write about it. If that's the case... don't write this article."

Liu Tan:? ? ?

Why are you threatening people?

He had no choice but to say: "Even if I say it, it's just a family's opinion, just take a look at it."

Well, it's best not to affect Sima Qian's position too much. Of course...if it can influence him to treat Zu Long better and be merciful...that would be good.

When Liu talked about this, he couldn't help thinking about whether he could have a little influence on Sima Qian through the biographies of Huo Zhi.

As for the relationship between the Zulong and the cargo colonization... that is very related. The unified currency and weights and measures are all closely related to the cargo colonization.

Thinking about it this way, helping is not a bad thing.

After Liu Tan helped Sima Qian strengthen his confidence, he left his mansion.

After Liu Tan returned to the palace, Miao Rui followed up and whispered, "Your Highness, the lady sent someone to bring His Highness Seventh here."

Liu Tan froze for a moment: "What?"

Miao Rui looked at him carefully and said: "The lady said that it would be better for the Seventh Prince to follow His Highness."

Liu Tan was startled. He just said casually in a moment of sympathy before, and never thought that he could really take Lao Qi away, but now this is... Really let him retire Qi?

It's not surprising that Chen Ajiao agreed with him, except for the crown prince, Chen Ajiao couldn't handle it, Chen Ajiao wished that all the other princes would not be allowed to stay in the palace.

His mother was worried that other princes would take his place in Liu Che's heart.

However, Liu Tan didn't think it mattered. If he was so easy to be replaced, what was he doing all these years?

He asked someone to bring the Seventh Prince over to have a look. Children are naturally sensitive, and when they saw Liu Tan, they couldn't help grinning foolishly, and even reached out to hug him—in the entire palace, Liu Tan was indeed treating him The kindest person ever.

The other palace people either looked down on him or ignored him, even Chen Ajiao only played with him on a whim, basically as a pet.

Liu Tan asked, "Is there anything else besides the Seventh Prince?"

"Some clothes of the Seventh Prince are also sent, as well as those who serve him."

Liu Tan hesitated for a while, and decided to go to the palace to ask. He didn't want to ask Chen Ajiao, but Liu Che.

It is impossible for Liu Che not to know about the fact that the Seventh Prince was sent out of the palace, so he needs to ask Liu Che what he thinks.

After Liu Tan entered the palace, he met Liu Che smoothly without waiting.

At that time, Liu Che was processing paperwork, and even Prince Liu Shi went back to do his own work.

Liu Tan originally wanted to wait for Liu Che to finish his work, but unexpectedly, as soon as he sat down, Liu Che threw the paperwork in his hand aside, and asked while cleaning his hands, "Are you here for the matter of Lao Qi?"

Liu Tan responded immediately: "Yes, father...do you really want me to take Lao Qi away?"

Liu Che said indifferently: "If you like it, take it away."

Liu Tan was a little dazed: "But he is the prince."

Liu Che said: "Anyway, I have to leave sooner or later. At worst, I will send him back when he is older. I will just give him a fief."

Liu Tan: ...

To be honest, Liu Che cared more about his horse than Lao Qi.

Liu Tan also couldn't figure out why Liu Che was so indifferent to the seventh prince, but he couldn't get to the bottom of it, so he just said: "But the old seven has no name until now, so he can't keep calling the seventh prince, right? The name is not good enough, it should be given the name by the emperor."

Liu Che seemed to have just remembered this matter, and said casually, "Let's call him Liu Ku."

Liu Tan:? ? ?

Is this a name for your son?

Although in many cases, ancient people may not always use words with good meanings when choosing names, but they usually combine them to make the meaning of the name better.

For example, when you go to a sick person, you have a better wish.

Liu Ku... the word Ku in the single name is really not a very good meaning.

Liu Che’s naming of his sons is actually pretty good, why is it okay even if it’s Liu Tan, a person who shouldn’t exist in the first place?

Liu Tan took a serious look at Liu Che's expression, and in the end he didn't talk nonsense with Liu Che just because of his name.

The Seventh Prince's name was thus decided.

When Liu Tan went back, he happened to see Lu Xuan playing with Liu Ku, and Lu Xuan was calling Liu Ku to call the emperor, Liu Tan couldn't help but pat him and said: "Children can't say such complicated things at first!"

Lu Xuan asked casually: "Did you go to the palace to ask for the name of the Seventh Prince? What is it?"

Liu Tan said: "Bitter, the single name is bitter."

Lu Xuan was a little surprised after hearing this: "Huh?"

Liu Tan said very calmly: "Yes, Father has high hopes for him, and hopes that he can become a patient and persistent person in the future."

Lu Xuan's face was full of question marks: "Did I hear it wrong? Or did you say the words differently?"

Liu Tan squinted at him: "You are not good at learning, read more books. Although suffering has other meanings, it also means patience and hard work. For example, hard-working and hard-working, do you think about it?"

Lu Xuan thought about it for the same reason, then smiled and said: "It seems that I really don't read enough."

Liu Tan patted him on the shoulder. To be honest, he was lying, because Liu Che really didn't feel any expectations from Liu Ku.

This is Liu Tan trying to win respect for Liu.

But what is even more strange is that after others knew that Liu Ku was thrown by the emperor to the King of the Northern Territory, the entire government and the public were quiet, and no one came out to object, so Liu Tan was allowed to take Liu Ku away!

The day Liu Tan left could be regarded as a great gift from the city. When his bicycle frame was going out, the common people crowded the road to watch him, and Liu Ju brought a bunch of officials to send him out.

Although not all civil and military officials were brought out, it still made Liu Tan a little uneasy.

He couldn't help but leaned close to Liu Ju and asked, "What's the situation? Why are there so many people? It's His Royal Highness who gave the order?"

Liu Ju said with a smile, "They came willingly."

Liu Tan was dumbfounded: "I'm not familiar with them."

Are these people cheating him?

Liu Ju tilted his head and whispered, "They don't ask to be familiar with you, they just ask you not to trouble them."

Liu Tan: ...

Looking back, these people seemed to be really sending off the plague gods, and they all had very happy faces, which made Liu Tan a little puzzled. He didn't have trouble with anyone when he was in Chang'an.

Liu Tan left with doubts all over his head. Chang'an officials looked at his back with tears in their eyes - the King of the North was fine, but he easily stepped on the minefield of the emperor and the prince if he was not careful. It was not easy.

Compared with the officials from Chang'an, the officials from the Northern Borderlands were very enthusiastic, and they all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Liu Tan's frame—it can be regarded as returning.

I haven't seen him for a year, and Liu Tan didn't feel unfamiliar when he saw Huo Guang. The main thing was Huo Guang... or that Huo Guang. After meeting and asking hard, he asked, "What's your Highness's plan next?"

Liu Tan pondered for a while: "Let's plant the land first."

Huo Guang:? ? ? ? ?
