Carefree Prince In Tang Dynasty

Chapter 677 Conferring Official Positions

"Grassman Lu Daren pays homage to His Majesty!"

"Craftsman Situ Liang pays homage to His Majesty!"

The two fell to their knees with a plop, and respectfully bowed to the great Li Er Majesty. They never imagined that they could really have such a close contact with the emperor once in their lives. Although I have to say, since they came in, they didn't dare to look up at what His Majesty Li Er looked like.

"Look up and let me see the faces of the two of you." Li Shimin said.

Lu Daren and Situ Liang did not dare to defy, and slowly raised their heads.

"Is this the meritorious minister of my Tang Dynasty?" Li Shimin praised with a smile, "Not bad."

Jiang Yushu, one of the servants of the Ministry of Rites, took a step forward, holding out an imperial decree and said: "Lu Daren, who made great contributions to the invention of the human-powered waterwheel, was hand-picked as the winner of the first Zhenguan Award, with a bonus of 500 guan as a token of encouragement. Situ Liang, who invented 'Wooden Wing' has meritorious service, and is listed as the winner of the Zhenguan Award along with Lu Daren, with a bonus of 500 guan. This is my honor."

Lu Daren and Situ Liang were no longer stupid at this time, they both bowed down to thank them, apparently a servant had taught them what to do in advance, so as not to embarrass themselves when they really went to the palace.

After receiving the imperial decree, Lu Daren and Situ Liang exchanged glances without leaving a trace, and they both saw an emotion called "excitement" in each other's eyes.

Who were they originally? It's just the people at the bottom of the Tang Dynasty, the so-called Tian Shelang. But where are they now? Surrounded by courtiers, the emperor sits high above the court.

This huge gap makes them seem to be in the clouds.

They never thought they would have such a day. But now, because of their talents and the appreciation of Chu Wang Li Xin, they have such an unprecedented opportunity. They couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion.

At this moment, Li Xin stood up straighter. Cheng Yaojin gave him a meaningful look.

Based on Mr. Cheng's understanding of Li Xin, this kid is probably going to do something.

Sure enough, Li Xin straightened his clothes a little, then stepped forward and said: "Sometimes I will play."

Li Shimin nodded expressionlessly and said, "Speak."

Li Xin cleared his throat and said: "I heard that if a country wants to be strong, it must allow talented people to give full play to their talents. Lu Daren and Situ Liang, the two of them can invent such a practical tool to effectively improve Isn’t the life of the common people in the Tang Dynasty regarded as talented people? How can they just reward them with money?”

He paused, and said: "Wei Chen thinks that they should be given a chance to stay in Chang'an, so as to give full play to their abilities and benefit the people of Tang Dynasty."

Li Shimin raised his eyelids and said, "You mean to reward them both with official positions?"

"It's not a reward." Li Dao said, "It's their ability that deserves an official position."

Li Shimin didn't get entangled in this, but asked in cooperation: "Then, what kind of official positions do you think is appropriate to confer on the two of them?"

When Situ Liang and Lu Daren heard this, their hearts beat fast, and they couldn't believe their ears: the prince is not lying, and the prince really wants to keep the two of them in Chang'an on business!

Lu Daren is alright, he is a bit dull by nature. Situ Liang had to bite his lower lip tightly to keep himself silent, so as not to jump up and say "any official position is fine, as long as it allows me to stay in Chang'an to do research".
