Luo Zhang did not expect that there were people as smart as him in the Tang Dynasty. He actually learned how to turn around and gave the memorial to the people below to review. Luo Zhang naturally wanted to get in touch with such smart people. He might also be a time traveler. Woolen cloth.
Luo Zhang thought about this problem at the beginning of time travel. If he can time travel, maybe others can come through time travel. How happy it would be to meet a fellow villager in this unfamiliar place. At least he's no longer alone!
Little did he know that the answer Li Ji gave him disappointed him.
Cheng Yaojin! Unexpectedly, the smart man turned out to be Cheng Yaojin. This was really beyond Luo Zhang's expectation!
"Uncle Cheng also served as the right minister of the Ministry of War? Did he really do this?" Luo Zhang said with a speechless face.
"Of course, this matter is nothing new. His Majesty even found out about it in the end, and fined him a full year's salary. After that, he was transferred to Zuowu Guard as the commander-in-chief!" Li Ji explained road.
"I've never heard Uncle Cheng talk about this. I'll definitely talk to him someday and discuss my experience as the Right Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War!" Luo Zhang said with a smile.
Li Ji rolled his eyes and said, "If you imitate him, get out of here as soon as possible. I don't want a subordinate like Cheng Yaojin. That's not a subordinate, that's a master!"
"Hahaha, who is the master? It's quite lively from what you say!"
Just as the two were talking enthusiastically, a middle-aged man in Tsing Yi walked in at the door of the government office.
"Pharmacist, why are you free to come here today? Do you have something to do?" Li Ji looked at Li Jing curiously and asked.
"It's okay, so I can't come? After all, I'm also the Minister of War. Today I heard that Luo Zhang was coming to take office, so I came to see him!" Li Jing smiled and looked at Luo Zhang.
"Look at him? You should first ask him what he did when he took office. I don't know what His Majesty thought. He brought him to our military department and became the right assistant minister. Isn't this a trick on me? You should wait until you are deacons. It's okay to come!" Li Ji complained loudly.
"Oh? What did Luo Zhang do to make you so angry? You really need to ask!" Li Jing said and looked at Luo Zhang, obviously asking about Luo Zhang's reason!
How could Luo Zhang have the intention to say this? He was also confused. Li Jing was also the Minister of the Ministry of War? Li Ji is also the Minister of War? From what they say, is there anyone else who is the Minister of the Ministry of War?
Is the Minister of War so worthless? Can you set up a whole bunch?
Seeing Luo Zhang in a daze, Li Jing coughed and said, "Luo Zhang, what's wrong with you? Don't you want to talk to me?"
"Ah! Oh, what? Mr. Li Jing, what did you say?" Luo Zhang came back to his senses and looked at Li Jing.
"What were you thinking about just now? You look confused?" Li Ji interjected.
"Master Li Ji, you are the Minister of the Ministry of War, right?" Luo Zhang asked.
"That's right, what's wrong?" Li Ji looked at Luo Zhangdao strangely, wondering why he was so crazy about asking this question.
"Then Mr. Li Jing is also the Minister of the Ministry of War, right?" Luo Zhang looked at Li Jing and said.
"Yes, what's wrong?" Li Jing looked at Luo Zhang and replied!
"This... you are all Ministers of the Ministry of War? How come there are two Ministers of the Ministry of War?" Luo Zhang asked curiously.
"Hahahahaha!"
Li Ji and Li Jing looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
"Don't laugh, what's going on? Do you think there are more Ministers of the Ministry of War?" Luo Zhang asked.
"Let Li Ji tell you about this." Li Jing sat down and poured himself a glass of water, not wanting to say more.
Li Ji smiled and said: "The most special yamen in the Tang Dynasty is probably our Ministry of War. As you know, we old guys are all following His Majesty to conquer the world. No one is weaker than the other, but when it comes to Feng When I was an official, there were only so many official positions, and there were even fewer positions that could match the merits of old guys like us, and among the many positions, the best was the position of Minister of the Ministry of War, so many people took a fancy to it."
"At that time, His Majesty was also troubled by this matter. Whoever was appointed as the Minister of War would make the remaining people dissatisfied, because no one would obey anyone else and felt that they were more suitable for the position of Minister of War than others. If His Majesty had chosen someone else, he would have been dissatisfied. I think His Majesty is partial."
"So this matter was debated for a long time, and no Minister of the Ministry of War was elected, until one person suggested that since everyone disagrees with anyone, why not just one person be the Minister of the Ministry of War for a period of time, so that everyone can be the Minister of the Ministry of War! "
"This method has been approved by most people, so now you can see that there are many in the Ministry of War. By the way, your uncle Qin Qiong is also the Minister of the Ministry of War. He just fell ill some time ago and has not come to take up his post!" Li Ji gave a detailed report Luo Zhang explained.
Luo Zhang was sweating on his forehead after hearing these words. He originally thought that he was the third in command of the Ministry of War and felt that he was very great and majestic, but now it seems that this is a hole dug for him by His Majesty.
He's still the third in command, and I'm afraid even a dozen or so senior leaders won't be able to take his turn!
Where is the Ministry of War? This is simply a sanatorium for the elderly. A bunch of old guys gathered together to serve as ministers of the Ministry of War. This has not been recorded in history. This is the first time Luo Zhang has heard of it!
"Okay, what are you talking about? Luo Zhang, you haven't replied to me yet. What did you do to make this old guy Li Ji so angry?" Li Jing interjected.
"Me? I didn't say anything. It's just that Mr. Li Ji said that I didn't want to imitate him. He insisted on imitating Cheng Yaojin. He said that if I imitated him, he would tell me to get out!" Luo Zhang said aggrievedly.
"You want to imitate Cheng Yaojin? Hahahaha, if you imitate him, I'm afraid you will really piss Li Ji to death!" Li Jing burst out laughing.
"He is not studying, he has already done it. Cheng Yaojin was lazy and let the people below him correct the memorials on their own. Luo Zhang, on the other hand, set a precedent on the first day he took office and let the people below him correct the memorials on their own. Isn't this nonsense? "Li Ji complained.
"There's nothing we can do about it. There are so many memorials piled up before. I have to watch them for days without eating, drinking or sleeping. Who can bear it?" Luo Zhang also said Qu Dao.
"There are so many? It's impossible. I've always asked Liu Tao to help me look at it. If His Majesty hadn't asked you to be the right minister of the Ministry of War, this position would have been his. He is an old man in the Ministry of War!" Li Ji was a little confused! road.
"Haha, what else is there to say? Liu Tao must be unconvinced and wants to give Luo Zhang a blow and scare Luo Zhang away so that he can take over!" Li Jing said clearly.
"Confused, how can he change His Majesty's decision? This Liu Tao is really stupid. I will talk to him in a minute!" Li Ji frowned.
"Lord Li Ji, there is no need to be like this. It's just Liu Tao. It's not worthy of you, the Minister of War, to take action. I can solve it myself. If you take action, others will think that I am too useless!" Luo Zhang said with a smile.
"Hey, you are quite confident. Well, you can solve this problem yourself and I won't help you. Don't come to me to complain if you can't solve it. That's useless!" Li Ji also laughed! .
"By the way, Li Jing, you haven't said what you are here for today. Are you really here to congratulate Luo Zhang on taking office? You are not that kind of person!" Li Ji turned to look at Li Jing and said. The two have known each other for many years. Naturally he understands their respective temperaments, so he doesn't believe Li Jing's lies!
"Who said I didn't come to see Luo Zhang? I really came to see Luo Zhang today!" Li Jing said with a smile.
"Huh? What does Mr. Li Jing want from me?" Luo Zhang also became confused.
"Dingfang, come in!" Li Jing shouted toward the door.
I saw a burly young man with a handsome face striding in, clasping his fists at Luo Zhang and Li Ji and saluting: "Su Dingfang, a humble official, has met these two adults!"
Su Dingfang? Luo Zhang was slightly startled when he heard the name.
This is a general at the level of the God of War, and he is indeed Li Jing's apprentice. Luo Zhang wanted to get Su Dingfang under his command before, but after thinking about it later, he decided not to let him go. After all, Li Jing, an old fox, would not let him go so easily!
"No need to be polite!" Li Ji said with a smile. Obviously he knew Su Dingfang!
"Did you call him here for something?" Li Ji looked at Li Jing and asked.
"In this Northern Expedition, His Majesty has issued an edict, and Fang is destined to follow Luo Zhang and obey Luo Zhang's arrangements. I am sending him here!" Li Jing said in surprise.
"What? His Majesty asked Su Dingfang to follow me?" Luo Zhang said in surprise.
"Of course, otherwise how could I be willing to let Dingfang leave my side? You must know that this Northern Expedition is a good opportunity to gain military merit. If you follow me, you can get a lot of military merit!" Li Jing said rather unhappy, feeling that His Majesty was hindering Su Dingfang. future!
"Hahahaha, Mr. Li Jing, you can rest assured. Su Dingfang will definitely win more military honors than you by following me. I can guarantee you this!" Luo Zhang thought about why His Majesty asked Su Dingfang to follow him, and The guarantee he made with Li Jing was not a blank check, it was real!
