When Li Er heard the last word, the corners of his mouth began to curl up unconsciously. When Li Ke saw this, he knew that Li Er understood.
"Ke'er, you mean..."
Li Ke shook his head quickly and said
"No, no, I didn't say."
Looking at Li Ke who kept shaking his head, Li Er nodded with a big smile and said to Wang De next to him.
"The decree is announced that Kong Aiqing will teach the prince how to teach him well, and he will give him a hundred bolts of silk, ten thousand gold, and a pair of Ruyi jade.
The prince Li Ke is smart and eager to learn, smart and alert, and is endowed with..."
Li Er didn't say anything, but turned around and asked
"Ke'er, is there anything you want?"
Li Ke thought for a while and said
"Why don't daddy give me some craftsmen? I also know a formula that can leave ink on metal."
Li Er nodded with great satisfaction and said
"Okay, give the craftsman a hundred, and you can go and be the supervisor yourself another day."
Li Ke quickly knelt down
"Thank you dad for the reward."
Looking at Li Ke leaving, Li Erda's face, which was originally full of smiles, immediately became serious and said in a cold voice.
"The fourth person is not allowed to know about the conversation between me and Ke'er today, otherwise, he will be killed without mercy."
Wang De was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground and said tremblingly
"Old slave, take orders."
Li Ke was a little carried away when he walked out of Liangyi Hall. After all, not everyone can get Li Er's big smile. At the same time, he also began to think about the future.
"For now, at least until that little brat Li Zhi has not ascended the throne, I am still safe. Now hug Li Er's big thighs more, and then hug Li Zhi's thighs. Not to say it is foolproof, but at least I won't die.
As for ink and paper, let's wait until we have time. Suddenly, I'm lazy, so I'll just get up and live a carefree life. "
Nearly three months passed in such a peaceful life. When he woke up in the morning, Li Ke clearly felt the slightest chill coming from his body.
Taking a deep breath, the cold air entered the lungs, and then slowly exhaled, it was extremely comfortable.
After doing a few stretching exercises, Li Ke smiled and said to the strong man next to him
"Old Zhao, let's start."
Zhao Hu smiled and nodded, picked up a wooden stick and threw it to Li Ke, and then the two began to sparring. This practice lasted for an hour, and they did not stop until Li Ke was panting from exhaustion.
Wang Xi saw the end here and quickly wiped Li Ke with a warm towel to prevent Li Ke from catching the cold.
"Your Highness, the hot water is ready. You should take a bath first, otherwise you will catch a cold."
Li Ke nodded, turned to Zhao Hu and said
"Okay, Lao Zhao, you should go back first. It's getting cold now. I will practice by myself from now on. When spring comes, you can practice with me."
Then he turned around and said to Wang Xi
"Give Lao Zhao 50 guan, and let Lao Zhao's family have a good year."
After hearing the thump, Zhao Hu knelt down and gave Li Ke a hard knock.
"Thank you for your humble position, His Highness the King of Shu."
Li Ke helped Zhao Hu up and patted Zhao Hu's arm. He originally wanted to pat the shoulder, but he was too small to reach it, so he had to make do with patting the arm.
"Okay, don't kneel down all the time. If you want to thank me, just guard the palace and your father. These are all given by your father, so take them with peace of mind."
"I am humble enough to defend His Majesty to the death."
Li Ke didn't say anything more, just turned around and returned to the palace.
Although Li Ke lived like a salted fish in the past three months, he made full use of the one hundred craftsmen Li Er gave him.
The craftsmen taken from Yan Lide, Minister of Industry, were all master craftsmen with clean family backgrounds, no background and excellent skills.
Look at the tables and chairs in the palace, the exquisite tea sets on the tea table, and the roasted tea in the porcelain jar that is about to be successful...
And there are still many things that are still being produced. Those four or five years of Douyin are not in vain, especially the videos of Li Ziqi, Nan Xiang and Peng Chuanming.
No, just after Li Ke came out of the shower, Wang Xi ran in
"Your Highness, Lou Laosan is here and said that the ink pad you requested has been made."
Li Ke's eyes lit up and he quickly ran to the main hall. When he arrived, he saw an uncle in his fifties standing in the corner of the main hall. Seeing Li Ke's arrival, he quickly wanted to step forward to salute, but was stopped by Li Ke. Got it
"Uncle Lou, has the ink clay been made?"
Lou Laosan smiled and took out a delicate metal box from his arms and handed it to Li Ke
"It's been made, but I don't know if it's like His Highness said. It won't solidify in winter, won't lose oil in summer, won't rot due to water intrusion, and won't leave traces when burned. It can be preserved for hundreds of years without fading."
Li Ke opened the lid, and a fresh fragrance came out. Li Ke nodded with satisfaction.
"Not to mention other things, this appearance is worth hundreds of dollars. As for whether I can do what I said, we will know if we try it."
After saying that, he took out a newly made private seal from his pocket. The seal was red in color, extremely bright, and translucent. If it were placed in the hands of knowledgeable people in future generations, they would definitely recognize that this is the famous Shoushan Stone. It is also the top-quality Dahongpao chicken blood jelly.
After some experiments, although it is not exactly the same, it is not too far apart, so Li Ke put the ink pad away and said to Wang Xi
"Wang Xi, take Uncle Lou to get one hundred strings as a reward."
Without waiting for Lou Laosan to refuse, Li Ke continued:
"This money is not given to you alone. It is shared among the craftsmen under you so that everyone can have a good year."
After Lou Laosan left, Li Ke stretched
"Ah ~ Wang Xi, is the stove I asked you to prepare ready?"
"The slaves are all ready."
Li Ke nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand
"Go, call a few more people, take all the things I prepared, and go to my mother's place. It's the beginning of winter today. Let's make some food for my mother and give her some things by the way."
In Ganlu Hall, Li Erda and Empress Changsun are chatting.
"Your Majesty, I see that you seem to be paying a lot of attention to Ke'er recently."
Li Er patted Empress Changsun's little hand and said with a smile.
"Ker, this kid has helped me a lot recently, so I should pay more attention to him."
Li Er wanted to laugh when he thought of Li Ke's recent clumsy performances, such as walking up and down in front of him and then casually throwing down the formulas for making paper and ink, and the tea sets, tables and chairs given to him like treasures. Anyway, the way to give things is as childish as possible.
Wang De, who was standing aside, seemed to remember how frightened he was when he opened the formula that day. Now that he thinks about it, his legs are shaking.
At this time, a young eunuch ran in, said a few words in Wang De's ear, and then left.
Wang De thought for a while and walked to Li Erda and said
"Your Majesty, the people below just came to report that His Royal Highness the King of Shu seems to have come up with a lot of good things, and he took them all to Concubine Yang."
After hearing this, Li Er smiled and said to Queen Changsun
"Mr. Guanyin, how about we join in the fun? I'm very curious about what Ke'er made."
Empress Changsun was naturally willing to go. After all, she also wanted to know what Li Ke had done that made her husband, the emperor, obsessed.
