Shen Yi's brows jumped when he heard this light sentence of "stuff it into the military department".
because…
Because when he left Jiankang in the first half of the year, the emperor had made a cake for him, and the big cake was to transfer him to the Ministry of War as the head of the Ministry of War.
The head of the Ministry of War...is a sixth-grade official.
There are four departments in the Ministry of War, namely the Military Selection Department, the Staff Division, the Driving Department and the Arsenal Department.
Each department has a doctor as the chief officer, and the doctor's subordinates include two division officers, Yuan Wailang and the chief officer.
The chief officer is the lowest level among the officers of each department. There are two people in each department, which means that there are eight chief officers in the entire military department.
You must know that the Ministry of War is in charge of the selection of military officers, native officers, examinations and military system, training, recruitment, garrison, border defense, honor guard, imperial guard, evangelism, stable husbandry, ordnance, talismans, military registration, martial arts and other military affairs.
Administration can be said to have extremely heavy powers.

Even among the six bureaucracies, the Ministry of War's authority is not low, generally under the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Household Affairs.
This is because Chen's army was useless in the war.
If the military fights hard enough, the Ministry of War will speak louder, and maybe it will be ranked among the top three among the six.
The three ministers of the Ministry of War, that is, a minister and two ministers, may go out with the army whenever there is a large-scale war.
As for the entire Ministry of War, in addition to the three court officials, there are four lieutenants, four Yuanwailang, and the remaining eight chief officers!
If Shen Yi can become one of the eight heads of the military department, then although his rank has not yet gone up, he will gain real authority and status, and he will become a veritable middle-level official.
Even though he, the head of the Ministry of War, will most likely be sent to the coast for a period of time, but even so, this level of promotion is already outrageous for him, who was a new scholar last year.
But even if Shen Yi really became the head of the Ministry of War, it would not be considered a lucky move.
Because Mr. Shen has truly made contributions.
This time, he followed Li Mu to patrol the sea south. Whether it was the battle in Taizhou or the battle in Wenzhou, Shen Yi gained real credit, especially when Wenzhou faced the Japanese pirates head-on. Because the prince Li Mu was injured, he had to fight against the Japanese pirates.
The Japanese army was basically commanded by Shen Yi alone. This was clearly stated in Li Mu's memorial to the court.
With this kind of real merit, no one can say that he, Shen Ziheng, is lucky. If anyone dares to say it to his face, Shen Yi can point his finger at him on the spot.
But even so, Shen Yi was still a little excited. He forced himself to calm down, then lowered his head slightly and said: "If Your Majesty is in trouble, you can send someone from the Ministry of War to the coast to assist the Crown Prince. It does not have to be a minister..."
The little emperor glanced at Shen Yi and rolled his eyes slightly: "Since I promised you, I will not break my promise. You did a good job on your trip south. Those old guys from Zhongshu promoted you to the Ministry of War.
Those old guys in the book can't say anything. Just go home and wait for the news. It could be as soon as one or two days, or as slowly as three or four days, and my imperial edict will be delivered to your home."
"but…"
The little emperor looked at Shen Yi, changed the subject, and said with a smile: "But how should you arrange the errands of your newspaper office? Whether you should leave it to others or do it yourself, it all depends on Shen Qing."
Shen Yi's heart skipped a beat when he mentioned the Di Bao Si, and then he lowered his eyebrows and said, "The Di Bao Si is His Majesty's Di Bao Si, and I will obey His Majesty's arrangements in everything."
"What I mean is that you should not take up the position of Chief of the Dijing Newspaper Division openly. Otherwise, if you are in the Hanlin Academy, the Ministry of War, and also the Dijing Newspaper Division, others will make excuses for this."
When the little emperor said this, he had been looking at Shen Yi's expression. Seeing that Shen Yi's expression was calm, he continued: "But I also understand that you have spent a lot of effort on Di Newspaper Division, and Di Newspaper Division
We are also in the process of planning. If we remove you from the Di News Department at this time, you will feel uncomfortable."
"The new Di Di newspaper company may also come to an abrupt end."
The little emperor clasped his hands behind his back and said nonchalantly: "Besides, if you are doing things in the southeast, you will most likely be inseparable from the Di Reporting Department."
"So, what I mean is that on the surface, the Di Newspaper Division is handed over to Sun Jin, but in fact, it is what it used to be, and it will still be the same in the future. Sun Jin is only responsible for the printing and distribution of the Di Newspaper, and other matters are still handled by him.
Shen Qing, you are responsible until..."
With that said, the emperor looked at Shen Yi and said, "Until the anti-Japanese army completely wipes out the Japanese pirates along the coast, and I, Chen, have completed the coastal defense army, how about you hand over the errand of the Di Reporting Department?"
Hearing these words, Shen Yi breathed a long sigh of relief.
To be honest, Di Newspaper Division is still very important to him now.
Moreover, he had single-handedly run and planned the Di News Department. If he was kicked out and kicked out, then he would indeed feel very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the emperor, a great leader, was considered "understanding" and did not do such immoral things.
Shen Yi bowed his head respectfully to the emperor and said: "My lord, thank you for your kindness. I will definitely take care of your residence and report to your Majesty!"
"Um."
The emperor patted Shen Yi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "The Queen Mother just told me inside that she said that you and I, the monarch and my ministers, are of the same age, and maybe we will get along with each other for the rest of our lives."
"Do a good job."
The emperor smiled kindly: "I can't treat you badly."
It has to be said that the little emperor's professional quality has become higher and higher now, and he is becoming more and more comfortable in the profession of emperor.
Because he has begun to draw cakes habitually.
Mr. Shen quickly bowed and said: "My lord, I will do your best to serve the court and your Majesty!"
The little emperor stretched out his hand and yawned, then waved to Shen Yi: "That's it, that's it for today. You can go back and rest."
Shen Yi breathed a sigh of relief, bowed and left.
Shen Yi took several steps back before turning around and leaving.
At this time, the emperor had already sat on his dragon chariot. His Majesty the Emperor sat on the dragon chariot, looked towards the direction Shen Yi left, and then asked: "Gao Ming, what do you think of Shen Qi?"
Eunuch Gao stood on the right side of the dragon chariot, lowered his head slightly and said, "Your Majesty, I think this person Shen Yi..."
"He is a scholar who is not like a scholar."
The emperor glanced at him: "How do you say this?"
Eunuch Gao lowered his head and said: "What I mean is that although he studied and won the Jinshi, he doesn't have the sourness that other scholars have."
"I have met many scholars, and they all have a bit of a sour taste."
At this point, Gao Ming paused and continued: "It's as if Shen Yi went to study and take the exam purely because he wanted to be an official..."
The little emperor thought about it for a while, then smiled and said: "If you say that he is purely for being an official, it won't sound good, but adding the word "doing things" makes it easier to hear."
Eunuch Gao also smiled.
"My servant once sent someone to investigate Shen Yi. He almost died unjustly in prison a few years ago. Maybe it was because of that unjust imprisonment that he lost his rotten spirit and became more dedicated to progress..."
The little emperor said "Hey" but did not answer.
"We drove back to the palace and went to see the queen later. Her belly has gradually grown."
Gao Ming should bow his head respectfully.
…………
On the other side, Shen Yi, after leaving the palace, did not leave the imperial city. Instead, he went back to the newspaper office to take a look.
After staying at the Di Newspaper Division at noon, Mr. Shen changed out of his official uniform in his squad room and put on plain clothes, and left the imperial city. He first wandered around Jiankang City, and then went to Liquan
I walked around the building and looked to see if there were any good new books in Liquan Building that I could borrow.
After staying in Liquan Tower for an afternoon, when Shen Yi returned to Shen's house, it was already afternoon and evening.
In the backyard of Shen's house, the cook has already started cooking.
Mr. Shen first went back to the backyard to see his wife. After staying with her for a while, he went to his study to write a letter.
Mainly I wrote to the local newspaper branches to inquire about the situation.
Just when Shen Yi was writing a letter, Qing'er opened the door and walked in with hot tea in hand. She put the tea in Shen Yi's hand and whispered slightly: "Master, Ding Man is here. I asked outside if I could come in to see you."
one side."
Shen Yi stopped writing and stretched: "We are all acquaintances, how can we say this? Just bring him to the study."
Qing'er nodded and quickly brought Ding Man over.
I haven't seen him for a while. Timon's body has become stronger and he is no longer as thin as before.
After seeing Shen Yi, Ding Man first bowed and saluted. When Shen Yi asked him what happened, the former Jiangdu beggar lowered his head slightly and looked at Shen Yi cautiously.
"Sir, eldest brother wants to see you. Let me ask you if it is convenient to see him..."
