Starting from the Western Han Dynasty

Chapter 90 Excited Liu Che
Before the team left Shu County, a group of more than [-] people changed their clothes and left the team quietly.

Zhang Qian looked around for a long time on his horse, then shook his head slightly and sighed.

Gan Fu didn't understand what he was thinking: "Ziwen, what's wrong with someone who serves the country and the people like you?"

"Of course there is nothing wrong with people who serve the country and the people, but just because people live in this world, serving the country and the people does not necessarily mean they will live well."

Zhang Qian turned to look at Gan Fu: "I think you should understand what I mean."

Gan Fu chuckled: "So what? With Junhou's current status, who can easily shake him? Do you think a person like Junhou, who grew up in the northwest, can really develop better ships?" "

"This is not an issue we care about. After the autumn harvest, we will be heading north. This is an issue we should be concerned about."

"Then will the lord follow us in the Northern Expedition?" Gan Fu suddenly looked forward to it: "It would be a pleasure to be able to serve as a soldier under the lord."

"Who can say clearly?" Zhang Qian suddenly said: "I always feel that it is a disaster for the king to keep Zhao Xin's wife and daughter by his side."

"How about I wait until the prince comes back and when we go hunting in the mountains and forests, I can find an opportunity to shoot cold arrows and kill these two cheap maids?" Gan Fu was very bold.

"Forget it, put away your bad idea. Is Junhou one of those people who is easy to fool?" Zhang Qian shook his head: "Let's talk about it in the future. If these two women really stay at peace with Junhou, they will naturally have nothing to worry about. Live a good life, if there are any other bad intentions, even if I really try to anger the princes, I will find a way to get rid of them."

Looking around, the repaired road was much more pleasing to the eye than when they came. Zhang Qian touched the watch hidden in his sleeve and felt a little heavy.

Gan Fu leisurely hummed a strange tune outside the Great Wall. He did not have the slightest objection to the fact that he was born in the Huns, but he had to follow the Han army to kill the Huns.

Because the Huns themselves like to kill Huns, and the only ones they don't kill are women and children.

After Emperor Liu Che read Li Huan's memorial, he remained silent for a long time for some unknown reason. Chuntuo thought that something big had happened, so he stood aside and did not dare to express his anger.

"Get the map of rivers in the world..." Liu Che had just finished saying this, and the expression on his face became strange, but Chuntuo had already accepted the order and was about to retreat.

"That's all, no need." Liu Che stood up, "I want to go to Anyang Houfu to visit."

Chun Tuo hurriedly ordered the car to drive, but Liu Che waved his hand: "Don't be so troublesome, Zhang Qian is already waiting for me to come over there, just in plain clothes."

At the beginning of Liu Che's accession to the throne, he most liked to go out and play in stealth in the name of Cao Shou, Marquis of Pingyang. At that time, Cao Shou was not dead yet, and he was the emperor's good brother-in-law.

But now that Cao Shou has passed away, Cao Xiang, the Marquis of Pingyang who inherited the title, no longer has much in common with Liu Che.

With something in his mind, Liu Che felt that time passed very slowly.

"Your Majesty wants to see the flowing water built by the Marquis of Anyang?" After hearing Cuihua's report, Gillian also felt a little strange. She didn't know how many times she had seen the water division map drawn by Li Huan, and she always felt that it was ordinary.

"Reporting to your honor, this is what the Taizhong doctor just said." Cuihua bowed obediently.

Gillian stood up and glanced at the westward sun: "I heard someone said that when Li Huan went to the Yangtze River, he asked Zhang Qian to bring back a memorial to present to His Majesty, Xiao Cuihua, do you know Anyang? What did Hou write?"

Cuihua blushed and lowered her head even lower: "Reporting to the nobleman, I don't know about it. Although the lord has sent back letters, most of them are commonplace words, and he never said what purpose he has for going to the Yangtze River." ." Gillian smiled and said: "Why are you blushing? Okay, go and give the order to clear everyone out and ask Huo Qubing to arrange the soldiers on guard."

"Replying to your noble lord, when I came to report, Dr. Taizhong had already asked General Huo to send people to clear the place. At this time, the soldiers were already standing under the eaves."

"Zhang Qian does things safely..." Before Gillian could finish her sentence, Da Changqiu rushed in in a hurry: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty has arrived!"

"go!"

Gillian stood up and trotted downstairs, followed closely by Cuihua and Da Changqiu.

Da Changqiu took a look at Cuihua who was foolishly following on the side, and immediately ordered in a low voice: "Silly girl, don't follow!"

Only then did Cuihua stop, hurriedly went to Bai Zhi, and discussed in a low voice, what kind of meal should be prepared for the emperor Liu Che in the evening.

When Gillian found Emperor Liu Che, he was sitting with Huo Qubing, crouching down to look at the newly dug ditch.

"There is a layer of stone paving here, but Anyang Hou said that if a material called cement is made, it will not be so troublesome to lay stone slabs."

Huo Qubing seriously introduced Emperor Liu Che.

Liu Che stretched out his hand to touch the clear water flowing in the ditch, and was a little surprised: "Is this water hot?"

"Of course it's hot." Gillian came forward, "There is hot spring water on Lishan Mountain. I heard that there was a poem written by Marquis Anyang. What's the name of the hot spring water that washes away the sludge, and the waiter lifts her up weakly?"

Liu Che felt Gillian's soft and fragrant body pressing against his back, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Huo Qubing pretended to notice Gillian and clasped his fists in salute: "See you, noble one."

"No need!" Gillian slid off Liu Che's back.

Liu Che walked into the house and looked at the hot spring water passing under the house. A strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "No wonder Marquis Anyang said that the hot spring water washes away the fat, and the waiter lifted him up weakly, but he was quite able to enjoy it?" Are all houses like this?”

"Reporting to Your Majesty, all the houses in the Marquis of Anyang's mansion are like this. The houses where the savages who came down the mountain live are not designed with such hot spring water. According to what Marquis Anyang said, the temperature inside the house can be guaranteed even in the coldest winter months."

Gillian laughed playfully: "The Marquis Anyang understands life...but why is Your Majesty interested in looking at the ditch?"

"Let Zhang Qian in." Liu Che turned around and sat down on a chair. Huo Qubing responded and quickly withdrew. After a while, Chun Tuo and Zhang Qian came in together.

"See Your Majesty, see Your Honor!"

"Excuse me." Liu Che said calmly: "Please tell me in detail, what exactly does Marquis Anyang think?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Marquis of Anyang believes that if water transportation is opened up all over the world, it will be an extremely rich income for me, a big man, and there will be no need for the court to waste any more money. Naturally, merchants will take part in it and form a large-scale water transportation. At that time, the court will only need to collect generous taxes."

When Liu Che heard this, he couldn't help laughing. He turned to look at Gillian, who was sitting on the chair with him: "Now, do you know what Marquis Anyang wants to do?"
