He had actually thought about glassblowing a long time ago, but the quality of glass at that time could not reach the level he wanted, and this was the least important one, so it was always postponed.
Now, in order to make the forest tree house more beautiful and dreamy, he chose to put this matter on the agenda.
Glassblowing is actually not that difficult. It just requires a hollow iron pipe, one end of which is dipped into the molten glass from the furnace, commonly known as picking the material, and the other end is blown with the mouth.
Liu Tan asked the craftsmen to try it, and the blowing went very smoothly, but the shapes that came out were really different.
This is easy. You can ask the craftsman to make a mold and then put the molten glass into the mold and blow it.
Because they were used to make glass lampshades, Liu Tan simply asked these people to make more and replaced the entire palace with a batch of them.
The shapes of the palaces are usually simple, either round or square. Even if they have shapes, they are mostly flower shapes, such as lily of the valley.
Then Liu Tan's own bedroom and study were shaped like several panda heads.
The one for the tree house couldn't be so monotonous. In order to make it more lively and vivid, Liu Tan asked people to use a group of small animal models as templates.
For example, there are cats, rabbits, and even the shapes of little foxes and wolves, but these two are not placed according to their actual size, but are scaled down proportionally.
The shrunken little animals are quite cute. In addition, Liu Tan asked someone to get a bunch of broken evil gold. Most of these broken evil gold are fragments from the mining process. They can be polished and used as the eyes of the little animals. They should be more lively after being pasted on.
After this part of the lampshade was completed, Liu Tan was still a little dissatisfied when he received it. Because of the problems with the glass formula and craftsmanship, the glass was not transparent enough, had a bit of green color, and was not particularly thin.
However, after placing these lampshades on the candles, the green color is not too obvious when viewed at night, and it even becomes more lively because of the addition of broken evil gold.
This view is not bad. Liu Tan placed the lampshade on his desk and imagined the effect of placing these lamps on the ground in the woods and hanging them on tree branches. That scene should be quite nice.
As he thought about it, he sighed.
Lu Xuan, who was reading a book nearby, turned around and asked, "What's wrong? Did you encounter any problems?"
Liu Tan shook his head and said nothing. He just suddenly thought that he had done so many things to make Liu Che happy, and he had never been so serious even when chasing someone.
It was only after Lu Xuan spoke that he remembered that he had never chased anyone before.
In his previous life, he was a single man until his death. Not to mention pursuing someone, he didn't even have anyone he liked enough to take action against.
In this life, Lu Xuan had been chasing him from the beginning until now. He only needed to think it over and nod, and all the problems between them would be solved.
Thinking of this, Liu Tan turned to look at Lu Xuan, only to find that Lu Xuan was holding a book in his hand, but was looking at him seriously.
Liu Tan couldn't help but ask, "Why are you looking at me if you don't want to read a book?"
Lu Xuan answered seriously: "I'm afraid you'll be unhappy."
Lu Xuan never pressed Liu Tan to ask about things he didn't want to say, and he knew his limits very well. However, he was never as nonchalant as he appeared, so when Liu Tan didn't want to talk, he would usually carefully observe his expression.
If Liu Tan's expression looked really embarrassed, he would make inferences through various clues. If he could solve the problem, he would help Liu Tan solve it. If he couldn't solve it, he would try his best to make Liu Tan happy.
After hearing Lu Xuan's words, Liu Tan suddenly smiled. He leaned one hand on the desk and beckoned Lu Xuan with the other hand: "Come here."
Lu Xuan obediently put down his book and came over. Liu Tan pinched his chin and moved closer.
Lu Xuan originally thought he was going to kiss her, and just as she was about to cooperate, she heard Liu Tan ask, "Have you ever felt wronged?"
Lu Xuan paused, then looked up at Liu Tan with some confusion: "Huh?"
Liu Tan said lazily, "Have you ever felt wronged when you're with me?"
Lu Xuan was a little confused, but still answered honestly, "No."
After saying this, he may feel that this answer is not satisfactory, so he adds: "I asked for it, and I am satisfied."
Liu Tan asked again: "Even if we have limited time to meet each other each year, limited time to communicate, and are separated by a long distance?"
Lu Xuan's heart jumped into his throat when he heard this. He had been worried from the beginning that distance would become the biggest problem between him and Liu Tan. He was most afraid that Liu Tan's feelings for him would fade because they were far apart.
That's why he would run to the Northern Border Kingdom every now and then, but no matter how hard he tried, state affairs were not so easy to handle.
He glanced at Liu Tan cautiously and said, "After this battle is over, we should be closer. Then I will be able to visit you more often. Don't be unhappy."
Seeing that he was tense and seemed afraid of something, Liu Tan simply let him go and fell into Lu Xuan's arms. While playing with his hair, he said, "Don't think too much. I just feel a little wronged."
He had been standing there waiting for Lu Xuan to come towards him, which seemed quite unfair.
Lu Xuan felt a little more at ease as he hugged him, and whispered, "I'm willing."
Liu Tan paused, turned around, put his arms around his neck and kissed him.
Belts these days are a little hard to untie, Liu Tan thought dazedly as he moved closer to Lu Xuan. Just as he was about to turn over and sit on Lu Xuan, his foot hit the desk.
The glass lamp on the desk fell to the ground and shattered into pieces in an instant.
Liu Tan's feverish head was also cooled down by the crisp sound.
He turned to look at the glass on the ground, then quickly stood up and pulled Lu Xuan up with him, saying, "Be careful not to get pricked."
In fact, although the tempered glass craftsmanship here is not particularly good, there will indeed be no sharp edges after it is broken.
Lu Xuan hugged Liu Tan and sighed in his heart. He could only comfort himself that this place was not suitable, there was nothing here, and it was easy to get hurt.
Liu Tan's emotions came and went quickly. Because he had been exhausting his brain energy in the past few days, he returned to his bedroom that night and fell asleep immediately.
Lu Xuan turned his head to look at the stars in the sky outside, sighed deeply, and took the opportunity to hold someone who was about to fall off the bed in his arms.
The next morning, Liu Tan thought about what had interrupted him last night. He was still debating whether to continue when he received the news: the emperor's procession had already departed from Chang'an.
All of Liu Tan's romantic thoughts disappeared instantly. He said nervously, "Hurry up, hurry up, let's make a summary and then check everywhere!"
