As a good subordinate, it is best to bring only eyes and ears, not a mouth, say more and make more mistakes, and the misfortune comes from the mouth, Xizhi knows this truth well, so Liu Yuan has not seen him for two months, and he has endured it without asking questions, but seeing Li Li's obvious mood swings, he persuaded tactfully.

Li Lizhi can be said to be bitter and can't say it, he can't tell others that he was forced to bow by the overlord, these two months, Liu Yuan seemed to be missing, hid in the studio, and declared that he wanted to retreat, and once he was closed, he was two months, mysterious and secretive, not to mention what to do with him, it was difficult to meet him, not only that, but the emperor's banquet was also refused, even on the Shangyuan Festival, and he couldn't shrink like a turtle.

Do you really want to "eat" and wipe your mouth, as if nothing happened?

As soon as he thought about this, Li Lizhi was so angry, and while scolding Liu Yuan for being a bastard, he was dissatisfied with Liu Yuan's stupidity and irresponsibility, he didn't understand, why was he so willing to cooperate with him, and let him enjoy half of the share exclusively? He didn't expect that why would his mansion be located here and be his neighbor? He didn't expect that he, a woman in the boudoir, would often visit the door for nothing? He didn't know that he was reading his articles and psalms every night. Didn't he feel the love in his eyes and the affection in his heart?

Men love beauty, women also love beauty, love talents, love heroes, Liu Yuan is both civil and military, smart and capable, is the best candidate in Li Lizhen's mind, otherwise, he would not have catered to that day, and Liu Yuan could not get out of the princess's mansion alive, he could say that he took the first step, but after so long, Liu Yuan has not reacted, which makes Li Lizhen not angry.

Is it difficult, but you have to send it to the door yourself?

If you are someone else, you have to go to the court, listen to the official errand and take turns. If you don't report for a day, the officials of the Ministry of History will be looking for trouble, but Liu Yuan, the only outlier in the Tang Dynasty officialdom, not only does not have to go to court, but even the work can be handed over to others, and you can do whatever you want. Li Er didn't care at all, for him, Liu Yuan was studying in retreat, maybe there were some new inventions, such as the miniature carving technique used by Datang to transmit intelligence, the intelligence encryption technique, gunpowder, firecracker, big iron thunder and so on. Which one was not thought up by Liu Yuan in retreat.

Li Er also wished that Liu Yuan wouldn't waste his time too much on weekdays and do more research. Not only did he not pursue it. And let people not bother him, no, the dignified general, he has not been out of the house for two months, and his status is still as stable as Mount Tai.

"Well, Hongu has been in a bad mood lately. I don't want to fight. Li Lizhi pretended to say casually: "The General's Mansion, has there been anything new recently?" ”

New?

Xizhi's heart is like a mirror, Li Li is asking about new things, and what she actually wants to ask is. Regarding Liu Yuan's information, nine times out of ten, two of them are awkward, and then both of them are proud people, and no one will take the lead in bowing their heads, yes, it must be so.

"Princess" Xizhi hurriedly said: "I heard from the subordinates of the General's Mansion that General Liu's retreat seems to be related to the princess. ”

What the? Got the news out of this? Li Lizhi was so frightened that she was shocked, but she quickly pretended to be casual and said, "Why is the retreat related to the main palace?" ”

"I heard that those subordinates said that General Liu's retreat is to create a piece of jewelry, and this jewelry is based on the princess, made of gold, jade, and gemstones, and it is said that it is very beautiful, except for a little smaller, the others, like a princess model, everyone knows that this is a tailor-made gift from General Liu to the princess." Xizhi said all the things he knew again: "I heard that General Liu is very attentive this time, in the words of Second Mrs. Liu, with General Liu's craftsmanship, a piece of jewelry can be completed in about two or three days, the complex one is about a month, and the simple one only takes half a day, like the last time General Liu competed with others, it only took three days to complete a very outstanding work, and this time it took more than two months, which shows that he is extremely attentive." ”

This is to make a gift for myself, I have been hiding in the studio, my father does not go to the banquet, gives up the New Year, and does not go out on the Yuan Festival, just to make a special gift for myself?

For a while, Li Lizhi was stunned, and the full of indifference just now immediately turned into a thick sweetness, and her mood was like a sunny day after a rain, and the pretty faces of all living beings were like melting snow in spring, the chill faded and was replaced by a smile, and her eyes couldn't help but show a smile.

Even if he still has a little conscience

"This kind of thing, just listen to it, maybe it's just similar, but in fact, it's someone else." Li Lizhi pretended to say lightly.

Xizhi's mouth moved, and he didn't say anything after that.

Soon, Li Lizhi said again: "Xizhi, this palace brought back some pastries from the palace, if you can't finish eating, you can send one to Liu's mansion." ”

"Yes, Princess."

Liu Yuan, who was in retreat in the studio, didn't know how prosperous the Chinese New Year was, how bright the lanterns of the Shangyuan Festival were, and didn't know the transformation of Li Liqian's mind and attitude.

Eyes, the window of the soul, there is an ancient saying that the dragon and lion dances are in later generations, before the dragon and lion dances begin, there is a cinnabar ceremony, they firmly believe that the eyes are the most direct embodiment of the soul, and people-related paintings, artworks, this "eye" is the key to success or failure.

Liu Yuan put the semi-finished product under the magnifying glass, carefully rotated the angle of the eyeballs inlaid by white jade and black gemstones, this is a typical "white and black", the most suitable for the eyes, the surface looks, nothing special, if you look carefully, you will find that around the eyeballs, there are twenty-four slightly protruding a little, this is Liu Yuan's carefully designed twenty-four hidden buckles, once inlaid into the pre-chiseled twenty-four grooves, it will be firmly stuck, it is extremely difficult to take it down, this combination of prong inlay and bezel setting, It is Liu Yuan's original technique, jokingly called "Twenty-four Bridges Bright Moon Night", the advantage of this is that the traces of the mosaic are diluted to the greatest extent.

Good jade, crystal clear, like an eye, a cursory look, there is no problem, but under a closer look, I found that the traces of the inlay are too obvious, quite a bit of a sense of defeat, just like seeing a stunning beauty, but as soon as I get closer, this stunning beauty is a fox smell, then it is a big disappointment, the most beautiful thing, that is, "natural carving", just like later generations, plastic surgery is not natural beauty and nature, and after the jewelry is built, fine polishing is to dilute its traces and enhance the beauty.

A good master is naturally critical of his works, and Liu Yuan is no exception.

Liu Yuan's hand did not move at all, aligned the angle, and then pressed it lightly, a few almost inaudible 'clicks', the eyeballs suddenly set into the sockets, carefully looked at the angle of the inlay and the joint of the card position, Liu Daguan nodded with satisfaction, two words to describe: perfect, the angle is just right, not bad at all.

After setting one eye, Liu Yuan did not rest, and immediately carefully inserted the other eye.

"Whew" When both eyes were inset, Liu Yuan could finally breathe a long sigh of relief, and after two months of hard work, he finally blossomed and bore fruit, and once again completed a work that satisfied him: the goddess of Wushan.

The eyes are the windows of the soul, when the eyes have not yet been inlaid with the eyes, the "God" has been prepared, and the carefully carved eyes are inlaid with them, like the finishing touch, and suddenly give it a new soul, Liu Yuan feels that there seems to be the noble, beautiful and wise Li Lizhi standing in front of him, she is blessed, she is born beautiful, standing on the bluestone, naturally revealing that kind of elegant and calm temperament, which is unforgettable.

The face is delicate, the eyes are clear, from the eyes, ears, mouth and nose, to the nails and hair, Liu Yuan is sculpted lifelike, and the hair is completely exquisite, which can be described as extremely luxurious and meticulous.

It's perfect.

The goddess of Wushan, not bad, how can she be regarded as having been to Wushan with herself.

Looking at this satisfactory work, Liu Yuan smiled slightly, put it on the original case, took a small pu fan, and gently fanned the wind against it, and something surprising happened, only to see that a pair of wonderful eyes turned slowly, first turned to the left, and then slowly turned to the right, and the temperament also changed, from a solemn goddess suddenly became an amorous girl, when the eyes turned, looking forward to Shenfei, all kinds of amorous.

To be an excellent jeweler, to make a lifelike statue, that can be done, but for Liu Yuan, a top master, this is far from enough, the whole statue has been cleverly designed, carefully processed, hollowed out the abdomen, and set up a simple mechanical device, mainly using levers and gears to drive, and then using the silk that is difficult to find with the naked eye as traction, so that the eyes can turn left and right, the source of energy, is the clothes on the body, the long, hanging sleeves in the air, In fact, hundreds of pieces of gold as thin as cicada wings are synthesized, usually put together, as soon as a small switch is released, it will be loosened to form a small air outlet, driving a small windmill stored in the dark, so as to obtain energy, bring the eyeballs to turn left and right.

Of course, if you don't want to turn your eyes, just turn off the small switch.

One beauty, two styles, it can be said that it is wonderful, and Liu Yuan is also extremely satisfied with this.

Before I could savor it, there was a soft knock on the door.

"Who?" Liu Yuan said with some displeasure.

If you knock on the door a quarter of an hour earlier, then under distraction, you may not be able to set it badly, because those card slots are very tight, if you take them off, it is equivalent to having to redo twenty card slots, which is not only troublesome, but also may lead to the imperfection of the work.

"Young Master" Liu Quan's somewhat worried voice came from outside the door: "The little one doesn't want to disturb the young master, but the father-in-law in the palace came and said that the emperor has a decree and orders you to enter the palace immediately." (To be continued......)
