Liu Pan'er nodded, "Your Majesty appointed your father as the commander of the Northern Metropolis, commanding the armies of several northern provinces to resist the invasion of Beirong. Your father and I have been spending less time together and more often, and I want to go with him. ”

Li Dabao thought for a while and nodded, "The family has to be together, I understand." That's okay, I'll resign from Your Majesty tomorrow, I'll quit, I'm going to Sangcheng with you. ”

Hearing this, Liu Pan'er was stunned, "Dabao, that's a six-grade official, a serious official." How many scholars want to be a six-rank official after being admitted to the Jinshi, but they may not be able to become a six-grade official. ”

Li Dabao scratched his head, his eyes showing dependence, "But in the capital, I'm alone, I miss you." ”

Liu Paner was also reluctant to Li Dabao, but sometimes she was so helpless, loyalty and filial piety could not be both, and neither could the future and family affection, so Liu Paner looked at Li Yuanqing, "Husband, what do you say now?" ”

Li Yuanqing thought for a while and looked at Li Dabao, "If you want to go to the north with us, you don't necessarily need to resign." You are an official of the imperial court, and if you get married in the future, there are also benefits, and you can't give up easily. ”

This is similar to the fact that later generations were finally admitted to the civil service, and they are also the high-tech backbone of the yamen in the capital.

I don't want to do it, but I can't.

Children are small, they can't figure it out, they don't know how important it is, but adults can't help but plan for their children.

Li Dabao scratched his head and looked at his father, "Dad, you can help me think about how to get the best of both worlds?" ”

Li Yuanqing smiled and asked, "Have the craftsmen of His Majesty learned the production of those glasses and bells?" ”

Li Dabao nodded, "Yes, but the production of some key parts is still in charge of the people on my side." Especially the anti-opening device inside, which only my people will do. ”

Li Yuanqing smiled, "Do you remember when you were firing the glass before, were some of the stones burned into powder?" After getting wet, it becomes a hard bump again? ”

Li Dabao nodded again and again, "Yes, there are such substances, I didn't care about them at first, but later I found out that they are like stones." However, the attention at that time was on the glass, after all, the thing was beautiful and valuable, so I didn't pay too much attention to those powders. ”

"Dad, what's wrong? That thing is worth more than glass? No way? I don't think it's possible. The method of firing the glass has been given to His Majesty, and I am no longer involved here. ”

Liu Paner also understood Li Yuanqing's plan, pursed her lips and smiled, "I am born to be useful, everything in this world is useful." Think about it, if the powder is spread on the ground, is it not soaked in water? If it is smoothed, will it not be necessary to walk on the dirt road when it rains after it is paved on the pavement? Can this thing be used to build a house? ”

"There are so many things that you need to verify and develop. When you tell Your Majesty about these things, Your Majesty will arrange a new errand for you. There are many stones and sand in the north, which is just right for testing. In this way, you can go to the north with us, and you can continue to do things for Your Majesty, and you can continue to be an official, killing several birds with one stone. ”

Li Dabao, who was still sad, suddenly brightened up after hearing his father's reminder, "Dad, mother, I know what to do." I'll go to Liulifang tomorrow, collect the remaining powder, try to make it, and then tell Your Majesty that I need to adjust the proportions. ”

"When the time comes, I will be able to follow my father and mother to the north. In the past six months, I can miss you and my younger brothers and sisters. ”

Liu Paner quipped, "If you go to the north with us and leave the capital, you won't be able to see your fiancée often!" ”

When Li Dabao heard this, his face immediately turned red, "Mother, Dabao is still young, don't tease me." Besides, when I get married in the future, I will have a lot of time to spend with my daughter-in-law. I am running for the future in the future, and my father has also been entrusted with important tasks by His Majesty, and we will not be able to be together in the future. ”

Li Dabao's words moved Liu Paner and Li Yuanqing greatly.

"Okay, we'll let it be. The rest is up to you. Liu Pan'er said with a smile, "It's not early, you are also busy today, and rest early." ”

"Daddy, you should go to bed early." Li Dabao got up, saluted his father and mother, and left.

got a good way to leave with his father, Li Dabao was quite happy, and his steps were brisk.

When Li Yuanqing finished drinking the sobering soup, Liu Paner helped Li Yuanqing back to the room.

The somewhat drunk Li Yuanqing was like a koala, hugging Liu Paner so tightly that Liu Paner couldn't break free.

Not only that, Li Yuanqing is also troublesome, and the two big hairy hands are not honest.

This touch, that touch, but because of drinking, the body is not very good, and Liu Paner's body can't go up or down, and the evil fire in his heart has nowhere to vent.

Since Li Yuanqing didn't sleep, Liu Paner chatted with Li Yuanqing.

"You just told Dabao about soil and cement, do you want to promote the industrialization of Dazhou?"

Li Yuanqing may also know that Liu Paner is annoyed, so he no longer makes trouble, hugging Liu Paner, and deliberately pressing his thighs on Liu Paner's body.

"Whatever, anyway, I don't think the road is good, so I'll improve the road. There are not many bridges, so they will build bridges. People live for a lifetime, and trees live for a hundred years. We don't plan anything, but when we encounter it, we do it. ”

"Don't embarrass yourself, and find things to do for your children. That's nice, don't you think? Don't you want to make your life more convenient? ”

Liu Pan'er smiled, "Okay, just follow what you said." Anyway, there are so many things, little by little, to change life. ”

Individually, the couple closed their eyes, talked a lot, and fell asleep before they knew it.

Let's say that after Li Dabao went back, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep, so he wrote an excerpt.

However, he did not present it to His Majesty immediately, but went to Liulifang the next day, and collected the dust from the kiln, as well as some stones that had been burned into powder, into two carts.

Some of them were still small pieces, and Li Dabao had them all smashed into powder and then tested in his own backyard.

There is a courtyard at the back, which is far away, so it is not paved with bluestone slabs, and now Li Dabao is starting to try on it.

The powder was added with water and smoothed on the ground.

Li Dabao was worried that the bird would fall on it, so he asked people to set up a mat on it to cover it so as not to be destroyed by small animals.

Three days later, it was dried.

Li Dabao stood on it and jumped and jumped, and the ground was intact.

He splashed water again, and stood on it again, and although the road was wet, it was hard and would not sink.

After a few more days, the exposed cement surface cracked, so it needed to be improved.

came to such a conclusion, Li Dabao entered the palace with the fold.

Regarding Li Dabao's whereabouts, someone will report to Emperor Zhou Ping every day.

In the eyes of Emperor Zhou Ping, Li Dabao is a fortune boy, and there can be no accidents.

After learning that Li Dabao collected the dust, he was also quite curious, and Emperor Zhou Ping waited for Li Dabao to come to the door and report to him.

I didn't expect to wait for seven days.
