Starting from the Western Han Dynasty

Chapter 64 Emperor Liu Che’s unknown anger
Queen Wei quietly retreated, and Emperor Liu Che started to play with the small gold brick again. What made him depressed was that even as an emperor, he had never seen such dazzling gold.

After a while, the great craftsman arrived.

"Wei Chen sees His Majesty!"

Liu Che looked at the master general who was kneeling below, frowned, and said lightly: "Excuse me, Aiqing, let's look at this thing, is there any problem?"

Chuntuo on the side immediately picked up a small gold brick, walked down the steps, and handed it to the master craftsman.

When the master craftsman saw it, his face was full of astonishment. He looked around and looked carefully. After a while, he shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, the quality of this gold is very good. I wonder which master craftsman made it?"

"No problem?" Liu Che frowned.

The master general felt something strange in his heart, and after looking at it carefully for a moment, he looked at the emperor Liu Che: "Your Majesty, the gold that I have passed through is countless. Looking at it individually, there is no problem and the quality is very good. But if you have to dig deeper, , we can only use fire to see."

Liu Che said: "Someone has tried burning it with fire. I just want to ask you, can you make such gold?"

"This..." A thin layer of cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the master general.

"If you can, you can, if you can't, you can't. Why are you hesitating?" Liu Che seemed a little unhappy.

The master craftsman was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt down and said, "Report to your majesty, I may not be able to make gold of this quality."

"Okay, I understand." For some reason, Liu Che felt even more depressed when he heard that the master craftsman could not make such gold.

Chuntuo immediately winked at the master craftsman who was about to be the master. The man knew what he meant and immediately retreated.

As soon as Master Jiang came out of here, he met Sang Hongyang.

"Great Farming Order!"

Sang Hongyang looked at it and felt strange: "Why are you so panicked? What happened?"

The master general took a deep breath and told what had just happened. After Sang Hongyang listened, he immediately said: "Do you know why your majesty is unhappy?"

"Why?" The master general looked strange.

Sang Hongyang smiled and said: "Because this kind of gold was refined by Marquis Anyang. It was first given to the nobles of Changmen Palace, and then to Mrs. Wei, but it was never sent to His Majesty, but you You can’t make this kind of gold, do you understand what I mean?”

"Ah?" The master general was shocked: "Anyang Marquis holds such a high position, why doesn't he understand..."

"Huh?" Sang Hongyang suddenly raised his eyebrows, and the master craftsman immediately fell silent, bowed to him and retired. At this time, Zhang Tang came from a distance. After seeing Sang Hongyang, the two of them looked at each other. He smiled and went to see Emperor Liu Che side by side.

"The Zhuo family's daughter has been living with Marquis Anyang for many days. She has been unable to get the salt for purification and the new iron smelting furnace. Do I need to personally take care of these matters?"

Liu Che's displeasure had already shown on his face.

Sang Hongyang smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, for some reason, your noble lord has been involved in these matters, which has made things more complicated..."

"How could a lowly member of the Zhuo family meet Gillian?" Liu Che could hardly control his anger.

Sang Hongyang cupped his hands and said: "Reporting to your majesty, the noble man accidentally discovered the daughter of the Zhuo family who was living in the Marquis Mansion of Anyang. After talking with her, we found out what the daughter of the Zhuo family wanted to do. The minister has been unable to decide whether to advance or retreat. I just heard that the nobleman intends to get involved in the salt and paper business..."

Liu Che's anger immediately disappeared: "So, does Gillian know about what I planned with the Qing family?"

"The noble man doesn't know, but that Zhuo's daughter can speak the right words, and the noble man can't help but feel moved."

"Go to see Anyang Hou and ask him to come forward and solve the problem."

When the emperor mentioned "Anyang Hou", his face could not help but become cold.

"The minister obeys the order!"

Sang Hongyang resigned obediently.Liu Che looked at Zhang Tang on the other side: "How is the investigation of Han Anguo's matter going?"

On the night when Wei Shaoer arrived at Anyang Hou Mansion, he did not see Huo Qubing, nor did he see Huo Qubing the next day.

Li Huan couldn't hold himself back, so after finishing the lecture on the third day, he planned to ask Li Gan to go find Huo Qubing.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Sang Hongyang arrived and planned to cancel.

"See the prince!"

Sang Hongyang bowed his hands in a gesture, and Li Huan naturally returned the gesture.

"I don't know why the great farmer's order came here." With something in his mind, Li Huan certainly didn't have time to accompany Sang Hongyang around.

"Your Majesty, you are very straightforward. I am here, firstly, about Zhuo's daughter, and secondly, to inform you about a major event."

Li Huan was shocked: "How could a mere daughter of the Zhuo family disturb you to intercede for her?"

"Your Majesty, do you know that this daughter of the Zhuo family has a husband whose ancestors were warriors who fought for Emperor Gaozu?" Sang Hongyang smiled slightly.

Li Huan was even more surprised. Does this mean that the guy named Sima Xiangru hasn't shown his face yet?Doesn't this mean that what Sima Xiangru wrote can be done by himself... ahem, what can I say, he is the original author.

"I really don't know this, but leaving the salt purification and papermaking skills to Zhuo alone is definitely not a wise move." Li Huan's tone revealed unquestionable affection.

"Is it because a noble person is involved?" Sang Hongyang's smile was strange.

Li Huan thought for a moment and said, "I'll make tea and ask the farmer to order a taste."

"I value the fields more, how about walking and talking with Junhou?" Sang Hongyang pointed to the plowed fields in the distance with a smile on his face.

Li Huan nodded and walked side by side on the field ridge with Sang Hongyang.

"Speaking of which, the Lord must also know that I am here with a mission."

Li Huan trampled to death a small insect crawling on the field ridge, with an indifferent expression on his face: "If you can convince that person, even if you ask me to give the Zhuo daughter the papermaking skills, I think it's totally fine."

Sang Hongyang smiled slightly: "The prince also likes to move mountains to suppress people?"

"It was you who first moved the mountains to overwhelm people." Li Huan pointed to the distance: "Is the design of the ditches in my field good?"

"It's amazing." Sang Hongyang smiled and said: "Junhou, you should find a way to persuade the nobleman, this matter can only be handled by the Zhuo family."

Li Huan touched the tip of his nose and thought about how a few years later, Emperor Liu Che suddenly ordered that salt and iron be nationalized and private businesses were not allowed to operate.

This kind of thing was more exaggerated than cutting leeks, but no one dared to criticize it at all; but it instantly raised huge wealth for the Han Empire.

Sang Hongyang has now begun to cast a net. From this point of view alone, the layout is indeed far-reaching.

But... how do I convince Gillian?

Li Huan patted Sang Hongyang on the shoulder, pointed to the distance and said: "After dinner at this time, the noble man will take a walk along the path full of flowers and plants. As long as you can convince the noble man, you will let me hand over the papermaking skills." It’s okay to give it to Zhuo’s daughter.”

When Sang Hongyang saw the graceful figure on the flower path over there, his face was so frightened that he trembled several times.

Li Huan smiled bitterly and said: "So you see, this is impossible to say. The noble wants to do this, but you want to cast a net. How can you prevent the noble from becoming a fish in your net?"

"Please give me some guidance, Sang Hongyang will be grateful!"
