In the imperial study room, Li Shimin chatted with Luo Zhang for a full hour before it ended, and after chatting for an hour, he still felt like he still had unfinished ideas!

Luo Zhang has said a lot today. Of course, most of the things are talkable and not important historical information. As long as you investigate, you will know that what Luo Zhang said is true!

Regarding Luo Zhang's statement and analysis of the situation to Li Shimin, Li Shimin looked at Luo Zhang with admiration. Originally, in Li Shimin's view, Luo Zhang was sleepy in court all day long and did not look like someone who cared about national affairs at all, but

Unexpectedly, Luo Zhang knew so much about state affairs, and some of his insights were even refreshing to him. This shows that Luo Zhang is extremely concerned about state affairs, and is not as indifferent as he appears on the surface. His usual appearance is deceptive.

Looking at Luo Zhang talking eloquently in front of him, Li Shimin felt a little guilty in his heart. It seemed that he had misunderstood him.

Luo Zhang didn't know what Li Shimin was thinking. After talking about business, Luo Zhang thought of something and said: "Your Majesty, you said before that someone reported me to you and said that I would not go to the Ministry of War to take up my post. It's not that I didn't go.

Ah, you have also seen that I am studying gunpowder day and night. In order to study gunpowder, even my wife is about to fall out with me. I have no time to go to the Ministry of War to take up my post. It would be an injustice to say that I don’t go to the Ministry of War to take up my post!"

Li Shimin couldn't help laughing when he heard Luo Zhang's words: "Yes, I wrongly blamed you for this matter. You don't have to worry too much about the Ministry of War. When you have time, you can take up your post. I will not restrict you."

Yes, but there’s one thing you can’t be lazy about, stay with Gao Yang if you have nothing to do!”

Luo Zhang couldn't help but nodded. Isn't this what a human being would say? I have worked so hard for you. If you wrongly accuse me again, it will be shameful.

After bidding farewell to Li Shimin, Luo Zhang left the palace and rode on his horse. Luo Zhang did not go home, but drove his horse towards the Ministry of War.

Didn’t you say that the labor and management did not go to take office? You actually sued His Majesty. Are you really treating the labor and management as easy to bully? I will go to the office today and see what you can do with the labor and management!

Luo Zhang curled his lips when he thought of Li Ji, Minister of War, he was also an old fox.

Generally speaking, most warriors don't like to play tricks and use their brains. They say what they want and do whatever they want. Naturally, they don't use their brains when fighting.

But Li Ji was different. He was also a warrior. He had a strong mind and was good at using tricks. He usually did not directly face the enemy on the battlefield. Most of them relied on strategies to defeat the enemy.

This is what Li Shimin values. A wise Minister of the Ministry of War is extremely important. After all, memorials are sent from all the military departments in the Tang Dynasty every day. He must help His Majesty identify the big and small matters one by one, and then classify them one by one. Urgent matters

Things need to be decided immediately.

If a rough guy were to handle this matter, wouldn't the Ministry of War be turned into a pot of porridge and people everywhere would complain?

Luo Zhang didn't have a close relationship with Li Ji on weekdays. When they met, they were just polite. I didn't expect that he would become Li Ji's subordinate.

When Luo Zhang came to the Yamen of the Ministry of War, he saw that there were many people coming in and out, but unlike the Ministry of Works, they were all craftsmen. The people coming in and out were all military people. Some people came out in high spirits, while others were dejected!

Luo Zhang knew at a glance that these people had returned to Chang'an from various places to report on their work. The happy ones were naturally those who had been praised for their good work this year and received promotions and promotions, while those who were dejected showed that they had not done well at first glance.

He was criticized for not being promoted to a higher official position.

You must know that the entire Ministry of War has jurisdiction over the world's troops, personnel transfer, evaluation and other matters, and the annual evaluation of military attachés is one of them.

Of course, although the Ministry of War has jurisdiction over the world's military attachés, it does not have the power to mobilize troops and horses. That power is only in the hands of Li Shimin.

After all, soldiers and horses are the foundation of an emperor's country. Only by having soldiers and horses in hand can he intimidate everyone. If the Ministry of War is given the power to mobilize, if someone in the Ministry of War has evil intentions, the emperor will not be able to do it.

To say that the Ministry of War is a department with real power, it is better to say that the Ministry of War does odd jobs and handles trivial matters for His Majesty!

Arriving in front of the gate of the Ministry of War, Luo Zhang looked around.

The Ministry of War is different from the Ministry of Industry. The yamen of the Ministry of Industry is very exquisitely decorated. The doors are all carved, not to mention the carved pillars in front of the door are even more beautiful. After all, the yamen is just a face. If it is not refined, how can it show the Ministry of Industry?

Craftsman's skill.

On the other hand, the Ministry of War does not have so many bells and whistles. It is simple, grand, and rough. The door is bare and the pillars are bare and bare. This was the first impression of the Ministry of War on Luo Zhang!

Seeing that Luo Zhang had been standing outside the door to watch, the guard guarding him naturally stepped forward and asked, "I wonder what important business this gentleman has come to the Ministry of War?"

Luo Zhang turned to look at the guard and said with a smile: "Me? I have nothing to do. I am here to take up my post!"

"Appointment? Are you Luo Zhang, Minister Luo?" The guard was surprised and hurriedly saluted Luo Zhang.

"Okay, no need to be so polite. From now on, we are all our own people. Take me to find Li Ji first, Mr. Li!" Luo Zhang said calmly.

"Yes, sir!" the guard said respectfully.

After the guard took Luo Zhang into the Ministry of War, news about Luo Zhang's appointment spread in the Ministry of War.

Luo Zhang was a man of great influence in the Tang Dynasty. Even though Luo Zhang was young, one could talk about his deeds for days.

For a time, the entire military department was in a commotion, and many people wanted to see what this influential man looked like.

In a government office within the Ministry of War, a middle-aged man with pimples on his face was reviewing the memorials on weapon wear and tear sent from various places. He only reviewed them for the first time, weeding out some that were not serious, and handed over the serious ones.

Mr. Li personally asked.

Just when he finished reading a book and stretched himself to take a sip of tea to continue, a young man wearing green court clothes ran in.

"Master Liu, Master Liu, it's not good, it's not good, then Luo Zhang is here to take up his post!" The young man ran into the room and directly told the purpose of his visit without waiting for the middle-aged man to ask.

"What? You said Luo Zhang came to take up his post? He hasn't come to the Ministry of War for such a long time to take up his post. Your Majesty, won't you punish him?" the middle-aged man surnamed Liu said with some displeasure.

"Um...I don't know about this little one. Judging from his appearance, there seems to be nothing wrong with him. He is now looking for Li Shangshu. I am afraid he will be here soon. I came to inform you so that you can do it early.

Get ready!" the young man said flatteringly.

"Well, you are right. We should make some preparations. I, Liu Tao, have been in this Ministry of War for more than ten years, and I have worked hard without any merit. The former right minister of the Ministry of War was transferred to another position. It was decided that I would take over, but who knew that he would be killed halfway? Luo Zhang came out and snatched away my right minister of war."

"Why? He's just a businessman with a little cleverness. How can he be the right minister of the Ministry of War? It's not just because he is His Majesty's son-in-law that he became the right servant of the Ministry of War! He's not even a hairy boy who still wants to be the right servant of the Ministry of War. Right Minister of the Ministry of War? Let's dream of his dream!" Liu Tao said with anger on his face. Due to his anger, the pimples on his face were shiny and looked very scary!

The young man stood and listened silently, not daring to say anything. This kind of fight between gods was not something he could get involved in. He informed Liu Tao of the news because Liu Tao had taken good care of him before, and he was also optimistic about Liu Tao's potential. He just got close to him. After all, if Liu Tao ascends to the top, he will also benefit. After all, Liu Tao's position still needs someone to do it. Naturally, he also wants to go one step further and sit in Liu Tao's position.

After venting his anger, Liu Tao felt better. After some pondering, Liu Tao waved to the young man and whispered something in his ear.

After hearing this, the young man nodded frequently to express his understanding. When Liu Tao finished speaking, the young man's eyes lit up and he said in agreement: "Master Liu, this is a wonderful plan. What if Luo Zhang becomes the right minister of the Ministry of War? Once we come up with this plan, we are afraid that In a few days, he won't be able to bear it anymore and will get out of here!"

"Hahahaha, yes, in a few days he won't be able to bear it anymore and will leave! He's still too young to fight with me," Liu Tao laughed!

In the yamen of Li Ji's Mansion of the Ministry of War, Luo Zhang Dama Jin Daodao was sitting under Li Ji, chatting with Li Ji.

"Master Li, I will be your subordinate from now on, so I have to take good care of my little brother!" Luo Zhang said with a smile, not showing that he was unhappy at all because Li Ji went to complain to His Majesty.
