Before Liu Chang could ask Fan Kuai more questions, he was kicked out by Han Xin. The two of them seemed to have something very important to discuss.
After Liu Chang left Han Xin's mansion, he felt that this incident was a bit outrageous.
Although his father did give Han Xin good treatment and even allowed him, a former traitor, to freely visit his friends in the capital, this did not mean that other princes and kings could come to visit Han Xin. It was one thing for Han Xin to take the initiative to visit him.
, but taking the initiative to visit Han Xin is one thing.
Is Fan Kuai really not afraid of arousing his father's fear? Maybe he was simply sent by his father?
Liu Chang thought about this matter. After returning to Jiaofang Palace, he naturally told his mother about Fan Kuai.
But what Liu Chang didn't expect was that Empress Lu was not surprised. She interrupted Liu Chang's tirade and coldly told her: "You must not tell anyone about this matter."
Although Empress Lu didn't say any more threats this time, Liu Chang was still frightened. After all, Empress Lu said it very seriously this time. He had long known what would happen if he angered his mother.
Liu Bang had two hobbies in his daily life, one was to hold banquets with his family, and the other was to hold banquets with friends.
Therefore, today is definitely Liu Bang's happiest day, because today's banquet includes his family and even his friends.
When Empress Lu led Liu Chang to arrive late, Liu Chang was surprised to find that this banquet was completely different from the previous ones. The family was no longer together as in the past, with Liu Bang sitting at the main seat and the two groups of people separated.
Kneeling and sitting on both sides of him, his expression was serious and solemn.
On the left side of Liu Bang, there were many people sitting who Liu Chang didn't know. There were only three people he knew. One was the man he bumped into at the Changxin Palace. He seemed to be named Zhou Chang or something.
One is his master Han Xin, and the last one is Fan Kuai.
Han Xin was still smiling and talking to the person next to him, but the moment he saw Liu Chang coming in, the smile on his face disappeared. With a dark face, he turned his head and pretended that he didn't see that.
Silly boy.
On the right side of Liu Bang, they were all acquaintances. Madam Qi did not come today, and neither did the eldest father or mother. They were the princes, second brother, Ruyi, fourth brother, and fifth brother, sitting in order of age.
On the right side of Liu Bang, everyone looked serious, with their heads slightly lowered, showing their respect for the founding ministers.
But this atmosphere was ruined after the arrival of Liu Chang.
"Master! You are here!"
"Master! I'm here!"
Liu Chang waved his hand vigorously, and Han Xin gritted his teeth in pain. The man beside him who looked very kind and kind couldn't help laughing, and even patted Han Xin's shoulder lightly. Liu Chang felt that this man must have a very high status.
Because he has never seen any minister dare to treat Han Xin like this.
Empress Lu sat next to Liu Bang, but Liu Chang could only sit at the end of the table.
Because the youngest son Liu Jian is still a baby, Liu Chang can only sit in the last seat... who makes him the youngest.
Liu Chang sat in his seat and looked at Liu You beside him, "You are here too."
"Um."
"Why did my father suddenly hold a banquet? Why is there nothing to eat?"
Liu You was trembling and didn't know how to reply. Liu Hui, who was sitting on the other side of him, winked at Liu Chang and shook his head to tell him to stop talking.
After everyone arrived, the ministers stood up, and the kind uncle at the head began to say some "toast words" that were half-understood. Liu Chang thought that they were probably toast words, but they were just long-winded words anyway.
For a long time, Liu Bang drank with his ministers, but here at the prince, only Liu Ying was qualified to get up and drink.
This was the first time that Liu Chang hated the banquet. There was no good food and he couldn't mess around with his brothers. He seemed to be listening to a song. Just when Liu Chang was about to fall asleep, several soldiers came in from outside the palace.
They were holding something. When Liu Chang saw it, he was immediately happy. Isn't this the textile machine I made?
Is today's banquet just to reward me?
For once, Chang Liu guessed correctly.
In fact, Liu Bang had already demonstrated the loom in the court meeting. During the court meeting, Liu Bang boasted that this was specially made by his youngest son for the sake of the people in the world. He said that although his youngest son was the youngest among his sons,
It's useless, but it still has such thoughts.
His words blew this naughty son to the sky. Although Liu Bang did not say it in front of Liu Chang, he was indeed very proud as a father and proud of his son's shocking achievement. Of course, he did not forget to put gold on his face.
, According to him, it is thanks to his father that Liu Chang has such a benevolent heart and such practical ability.
As for why he is so naughty...that is his mother's problem.
Because Liu Chang was too young, Liu Bang decided to hold a big banquet, which could also be used to reward Liu Chang for his contribution. By the way, he could brag in front of his friends. After all, there was no need to be so restrained at the banquet. Although Liu Bang was in the court meeting
He was never polite, used profanity frequently, and even told dirty jokes from time to time, which made several Confucian doctors' scalps go numb. The historian's hands were trembling and he was gnashing his teeth. Labor and capital are those who write history, not pornographic novels.
"Chang! Come here!"
This seemed to be the first time Liu Bang called his name instead of Shuzi.
Liu Chang suddenly jumped up and walked quickly to Liu Bang's side. Liu Bang also stood up, pointed at Liu Chang, and said: "Even my youngest son has the common people in mind. If you want to benefit the world, you all must work harder!
"
"only!"
The banquet finally officially started. Someone brought delicious food, musicians were playing, and the ministers were chatting. Liu Bang laughed and drank with them. Liu Chang was pulled aside by Liu Ying. It could be seen that Liu Ying was really
is very happy.
"Brother! You did a great job!"
"Mozi said: In ancient times, people did not know how to wear clothes. Their clothes and leather belts were not light and warm in winter, and they were not light and smelly in summer. The sage king thought it was unfavorable, so he pretended to teach women and cure silk and hemp.
, Feng cloth and silk are considered to be people's clothing. For the method of clothing, in winter, it is made of silk, which is enough to be light and warm; in summer, it is made of silk, which is light and warm enough. This is the only way to stop it. Therefore, the saints use it as clothing.
It is enough to suit the body and skin..."
"From this point of view, anyone who can clothe the world can be called a holy king. I will definitely be such a holy king in the future!"
Liu Ying started a long speech again. Liu Chang was confused and couldn't understand what he was talking about. He only understood that the other party was praising himself, so he gave a polite smile to express his gratitude.
Every time Liu Ying tortured Liu Chang, she would be rewarded, and this time was no exception. Liu Ying took off a piece of jade from her waist. This was the jade Liu Ying had worn since she was a child, and it was also the jade she liked to wear the most.
He gave this piece of jade to Liu Chang.
After surviving a round of torture, Liu Chang hurriedly escaped and returned to his brothers while Liu Ying went to talk to the ministers.
"Ha, benefit the country and the people~~"
Liu Chang squinted at Liu Ruyi and said loudly.
"It's just a small way. The descendants of the royal family can govern the world with their own abilities. Compared with the upright benevolent government, you are just a small way. You are addicted to the small way, but you don't even know the basics of agriculture, mulberry, industry and commerce. In the future, you will become a prince.
, will cause more damage than your current small achievements."
Liu Ruyi said disdainfully.
Liu Chang's first reaction was whether he should report to his father. His father was so happy now. If he heard Liu Ruyi's remarks that poured cold water on him, Liu Ruyi would definitely be beaten, right?
Liu Ruyi noticed the way Liu Chang looked at Liu Bang and suddenly stretched out her hand to pull him aside.
"You're pretty good...well, pretty awesome..."
After Liu Ruyi surrendered, Liu Chang showed off to Liu Heng and Liu Hui in turn. Liu Heng nodded calmly, while Liu Hui gave a gift. He couldn't afford a gift like Liu Ying, so he could only give it to Liu Ying.
There is a wooden figure as big as a palm. The wooden figure is very realistically carved and looks like a majestic general. Liu Chang likes it very much, even more than Liu Ying's gift.
Next, he naturally wanted to show off to his master.
Han Xin had been pretending not to see him, deliberately chatting with the people around him, but when Liu Chang came up to him, staring at him closely with his big eyes flashing, Han Xin could not turn a blind eye and turned around.
, I don’t know why, but he got inexplicably angry when he saw Liu Chang like this, can’t you be more serious?
But there are many people here, and the scholar-bureaucrat's restraint restricts him from getting angry.
"Master, I didn't lie to you, I made that machine!!"
"That's great, good boy." Han Xin had a fake smile on his face, and he gently performed the filial piety of a master and a disciple with Liu Chang.
Liu Bang was really happy. Soon, he drank too much. He pulled Liu Chang and shouted loudly: "I can't give you a title, but I can promise you one thing, no matter what."
, just say it!”
Liu Chang hesitated for a moment and asked, "Can we do three things?"
"Hmm...Okay! Tell me, do you want me to kill a cow for you? Or do you want to demolish my new pavilion? Even if you don't want to study, you can do it! Anything can be done!"
"Anything is okay?"
........
"Someone is coming!"
At the construction site of Changle Palace, donkey carts slowly came here. A man who looked like a high official stood on the cart and shouted: "Your Majesty's gift! Specially sent carts and horses to help you transport stones! This cart
There is also some meat and clothes, come and collect them one by one!"
A group of ragged craftsmen looked at the soldiers driving in fear. When they heard the official's words clearly, in an instant, everyone knelt on the ground and cried loudly, "Your Majesty is kind! Long live your Majesty."
!”
.......
Several carriages were slowly driving out of Chang'an. On the carriages, a group of craftsmen belonging to the Shaofu Shangfang Mansion were excitedly holding letters from their families. They finally got a four-month vacation. After leaving home for a few days,
Years later, they were allowed to go home and meet their families. They wiped away their tears and laughed and cried.
...
In the Jiaofang Hall, Liu Bang sat awkwardly in front of Queen Lu.
"Jiaofang Palace is my residence...then is it necessary for me to stay here for three days?"
