Chapter 358: Released as an Official (Part 1)
When Zhang Nan drove a steamer and started to circle around the open space in front of Tai Chi Palace, everyone present had different moods.
Mo Zu watched Zhang Nan drive the steamed car made by Momen and began to circle around the open space. Mo Zu felt indescribable. He was very calm, but at the same time he was also very excited, because Momen was finally able to make a comeback and once again be able to return to everyone as Mozhe.
What the ministers were thinking was that they could go up and experience this steamed car at any time, because this car that could run by themselves without a horse still looked very powerful.
Especially Cheng Yaojin, watching Zhang Nan drive a steam car around the open space, looking like he scratching his head, and wished he could kick Zhang Nan down and experience it himself.
Kong Yingda's mood was very complicated. On the one hand, Kong Yingda was surprised that Momen could really do the trick of running without a horse. On the other hand, Kong Yingda was a little unhappy. Momen returned to the court so easily. Although the Momen now only went to the Tiangong Department to use its remaining heat, Kong Yingda still felt a lot of dissatisfaction.
Relatively speaking, Comrade Li Er has to be much more calm, because this steaming car is indeed not a rare thing for Li Er, because Li Er's Harley is much more advanced than this steaming car.
It can be said that everyone present had their own thoughts. Zhang Nan kept walking around for five or six times before driving the car back in front of everyone.
After parking the car, Zhang Nan asked someone to take a basin of water, then turned on the boiler that was still burning charcoal, and handed over a basin of cold water. Although the steamer was successfully made, another very important problem was exposed. The steamer was made too small and the seats were very close to the boiler. This is a very big safety hazard, and the heat dissipation of the boiler was also a big problem, so Zhang Nan would not joke about his life. He drove about a few laps and got off the car.
When he walked to Li Er, Zhang Nan smiled and bowed to Li Er, saying, "Your Majesty, I'm so impressed. With the steamed car made by Momen as an example, our Tiangong Department of Tang Dynasty will only develop better and better in the future. I believe that in the near future, this steamed car will become a very ordinary tool for transportation."
When Li Er heard Zhang Nan say this, he did not break his promise. He waved his hand and said, "Where is the master of the Mo Sect?"
When Mo Zu heard Li Er call it, he immediately stood up and said, "The grass is here."
"Today, Momen has made contributions to the steaming car in the Tang Dynasty. If you have any contributions, you will have to reward it. Mozu, the leader of the Mo family, made great contributions to the manufacturing of steaming car. Therefore, I decided to let Mozu be the Minister of Tiangong Shi, and be promoted to the fourth rank. I hope that Mozu, you can take your Momen and continue to contribute to my Tang Dynasty." Li Er said with a smile.
When Mo Zu heard this, he was overjoyed and immediately changed his words and said, "I, thank you, the emperor."
As the saying goes, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, scholars and officials are a general term for ancient Chinese bureaucratic and humanistic intellectuals. This is an elite social group, and the origin and imperial examinations are the institutional guarantees for their formation.
Although some people regarded fame and fortune as a fame and fortune in ancient times, they were a minority after all, otherwise they would not have left any mark in history books. For the ancients, only being an official was the ultimate goal of life. Even if they became an official, even if they were a big official, they would have become the highest class of scholars in ancient times.
Mo Zu was born in a poor family and was also a white man. Today, when he came to meet Li Er, he won a fourth-rank official position. This was a step to reach the sky, and Mo Zu could not be displeased.
"Okay, this steaming car, Qingquan, you can bring it back to Tiangong Ministry. What I want to see is not this steaming car, but to see more things. Do you understand?" Li Er said.
"Don't worry, yourselves, after the work is over today, I will immediately prepare for the selection of scientific researchers and technical personnel of the Ministry of Heavenly Engineering." Zhang Nan said.
"Well, okay, let's scatter the court. Today's scattering ceremony is a bit different. It's still a scattering ceremony outside this Tai Chi Palace, haha." After Li Er said that, he turned around and left with his hands behind his back. Liu Bing quickly shouted: "Retreat the court."
After hearing this, all the ministers returned to their respective jobs. Kong Yingda took the initiative to walk to Mo Zu and said to Mo Zu with a smile: "I wonder if Mo Zu can come to the humble house to enjoy his face?"
Although Mo Zu did not know Kong Yingda, Kong Yingda was the leader of Confucianism after all. Mo Zu naturally wanted to know him, so he said, "You are polite, please."
Kong Yingda also made a "please" gesture, and then the two left together.
Everyone left, but Zhang Nan did not leave because Zhang Nan wanted to tell Li Er about letting him go out in advance. After all, this matter is a big deal. If Li Er did not let Zhang Nan go, it would be unlikely that Zhang Nan would want to make a big profit in the coal business.
Without taking a few steps, Zhang Nan followed Li Er's steps. Zhang Nan shouted behind him: "Your Majesty wait."
When Li Er heard this, he turned his head and found Zhang Nan following him. He asked strangely: "Qingquan, do you have anything else?"
When Zhang Nan heard Li Er ask him, he said, "There is something, but the emperor should find a place to sit down and talk slowly, because this matter is more troublesome."
Li Er looked at Zhang Nan in confusion, but did not ask much, but continued to walk forward with his hands behind his back. Zhang Nan followed Li Er honestly. After Li Er and Zhang Nan both arrived at the imperial study room, Li Er sat on the chair, picked up a cup of tea that the palace servant had just brewed, took a sip and asked, "Tell me, what's going on is so mysterious."
"Emperor, I ask the emperor to find an excuse to release me as an official at that time." Zhang Nan said.
Li Er was about to swallow the second sip of tea into his stomach, but when he heard Zhang Nan say this, Li Er was choked.
"Ahem, what did you say?" Li Er took out his handkerchief and wiped his mouth, asking in shock.
The ministers have always sharpened their heads and squeezed into Chang'an City, because Chang'an City is the political center of the entire Tang Dynasty. No matter how big the officials are outside, it is useless because they cannot reach the core of the Tang Dynasty's political circle, but why can they still run out?
"I said, "Your Majesty, please let me go, like a way." Zhang Nan repeated his words.
