Carefree Prince In Tang Dynasty

A few days ago, when Li Xin expressed his intention to keep Situ Liang and Lu Daren in Chang'an, Situ Liang thought that Li Xin meant to take them for his own use. Unexpectedly, what he meant was to directly give the two of them an official position!

This is not the same as simply being used by Li Xin. It is simply the difference between a temporary worker in a private enterprise and a government servant. The difference in treatment and honor cannot be counted.

"My minister thinks," Li Xin said slowly, "the responsibility of Lu Daren and Situ Liang is to create more new tools for Datang. None of the existing official positions are suitable for them."

"So, what do you mean?" Li Shimin knew that the drama was coming.

The civil and military officials of the whole court were silent, not knowing what Li Xin wanted to say after laying the groundwork for such a long time. Chen Yin and Xiao Yu even looked at each other, as if they were asking each other: Do you know what this kid is doing?

Cheng Yaojin rested his hands in his hands and watched cheerfully.

As the saying goes, watching the excitement is not a big deal. He has been in a high position for not a day or two, so he naturally has some grasp and feelings about the atmosphere of the court debate. He knows exactly what kind of atmosphere is just quarreling and nothing major happens; what kind of atmosphere is life-and-death and easy to form feuds.

At least in the current atmosphere, it doesn't look like something big will happen.

What's more, how sinister is Cheng Yaojin's vision? Seeing His Majesty Li Er's cooperating questioning, how could he not know that the two thousand-year-old foxes, one old and one young, had premeditated?

No matter what the courtiers think, as long as His Majesty is on Li Xin's side, it's fine for Li Xin to say anything.

So what are you worried about? Watch a play.

As expected, Li Xin also lived up to expectations, and threw out a blockbuster: "Wei Chen suggested that a new department be set up for new talents like Lu Daren and Situ Liang, called the Department of Science. The basic official positions in the department are doctors, lecturers, researcher, professor."

The courtiers were dumbfounded. What the hell? Are you opening a new department? Do you think this is a fruit stand in the vegetable market? Just open one if you say open one?

Chen Yin was stunned. Xiao Yu also seemed shocked by this proposal.

Frankly speaking, when Chen Yin heard such a proposal, his first reaction was to oppose it. If anyone else dared to raise such a topic suddenly at the court meeting, he would stand up and scold him immediately. But this time, he forced himself to calm down and stood there without moving.

The reason is simple - because the person who is saying this now is Li Xin. What he said, right or wrong, was at least worth listening to.

"As the saying goes, if a worker wants to be good at his work, he must first sharpen his tools. However, our Tang Dynasty has never had a department that focuses on 'sharp tools'. Isn't this strange?" Li Xin said seriously, "Only when we really establish Such a department should arouse everyone's attention, only then can our Tang Dynasty usher in more artifacts like Quyuanli and human-powered waterwheels, and the lives of the people will be better."

Chen Yin was lost in thought. Xiao Yu frowned slightly, obviously thinking about the feasibility and necessity.

Except for the military officers who basically didn't speak much, most of the civilian officials showed some resistance at the moment. After all, opening a new department or something is not a trivial matter. Li Xin's words alone always make people feel that it seems a bit child's play.
