Unparalleled Concubine

Li Xin narrowed his eyes and smiled happily.

"Thank you for your care, servant."

Around noon, Xie Jun brought four people over to see Li Xin. These four people were Yuanwailang, the doctor of the official department, and Yuanwailang, the doctor and Yuanwailang of the Ministry of Treasury. Li Xin needs to get to know him himself.

Among these four people, the youngest one is also in his 30s, and most of them are officials in their early 40s or 50s. After seeing Li Xin, a brat, they were stunned for a moment, then bowed their heads and said, "Go on!" Officer, I have seen Li Shilang."

Yuanwailang, the staff secretary, named Qian Sheng, is the youngest among the four, only 32 years old, and he is also the one who knows how to make money. After meeting Li Xin, he did not address him as Minister, but respectfully Said: "Wailang Qian Sheng, the official secretary, has met Lord Hou."

Li Xin glanced at him with great interest, walked up to this person, and chuckled: "This is the Ministry of War. You don't need to call me title, just call me Li Shilang."

Qian Sheng lowered his head and said in a flattering voice, "Although I'm here and don't do anything, I've heard about Lord Hou's great achievements early in the morning. It's a great blessing for me to be able to work under Lord Hou."

Li Xin chuckled: "Mr. Qian is being polite."

Originally, there was no position of Yuanwailang in the six departments, but the doctor was too busy alone, so he could only add a deputy, so he was called Yuanwailang, which meant that he was out of quota.

This is also the original meaning of the title "member outside".

Li Xin smiled lightly and said, "Ms. Li has gone back to his hometown for more than half a year, and he doesn't know anything about the Ministry of War. Except for the laborers, can you show me around?"

Qian Sheng was overjoyed, and directly left his boss, Fang Silang Ding Huai, and walked in front of Li Xin to lead the way.

Li Xin put his hands behind his back and followed Qian Sheng.

The other three officials were left behind, staring blankly at each other.

Chapter 384 Old Friends

The most important thing in the Ministry of War is of course the Military Selection Division. Even Li Xin is jealous of this yamen, but he now knows very well that he cannot get the Military Selection Division.

Even if Xie Jun handed over the military selection department to Li Xin because of "standing on the wrong team", Li Xin can't play it right now.

This position has too much authority. The promotion and relegation of military officers, the dispatching of officials, and the assessment are all decided by the military selection department. It requires a lot of contacts, experience, and sophisticated handling methods to deploy in the center. Xie Jun This kind of "veteran military department" who has worked in the military department for more than ten years can do a job with ease. Li Xin plunged into it, but his eyes were smeared, and he let the doctor of the military selection department fiddle with him.

Secondly, there is no reason for the right servant to choose a military officer.

Then the remaining few tasks are easy to choose.

Although the Department of Driving and the Department of Treasury are rich in oil and water, Li Xin went to the Ministry of War not to make money, but to achieve better development in the future.

So he took the Staff Party Division and the Treasury Department Division.

The official party is in charge of map, military system, city god, garrison, simplification, conquest, etc. The so-called power of conquest is just a name, and the most important ones are map map and city defense.

Theoretically speaking, even the city defense of the capital city is under the jurisdiction of the official department, but the city defense of the capital city is managed by the Imperial City Army and Horse Division, and the Ministry of War cannot intervene.

For Li Xin, the most important thing in this job is Kanyu map, Kanyu map is also a map. The Great Jin has accumulated a lot of map data for more than a hundred years since the founding of the country, especially after the unification of the world 30 years ago, from the Southern Shu and the Northern Zhou Li Xin moved back a large amount of map data from the capital of the country. These materials were all lost in the official department. If someone could sort them out and refer to the geographical knowledge of later generations, Li Xin could get a detailed map.

Because Li Xin still doesn't know whether this world is the earth or not.

As for the Secretary of the Treasury Department, it is easier to understand.

The Kubu Division is the place in charge of weapons. All military weapons and armors in the Jin Dynasty have to go through the Kubu Division. In the past, Li Xin's Zhu Rongjiu was also sent to the northern border through the Kubu Division as military supplies.

With this role, Li Xin can slowly start to transform the military equipment of the Great Jin Dynasty, but this is a later story, he needs to gain a firm foothold in the Ministry of War first.

Qian Sheng, a member of the staff, is the first step for Li Xin to stand firm.

Flatterers are certainly annoying, but this kind of person is not without disadvantages. For example, for Li Xin now, Qian Sheng can let him quickly understand the operation process of the military department and the personnel relationship between the top and bottom of the military department.

All day long, Li Xin stayed in the Ministry of War. As the current second in command of the Ministry of War, he just followed behind Qian Sheng, watched and asked questions, without expressing his opinion.

Each of the six imperial courts is an extremely large yamen, which is many times more complicated than the straight up and down yamen of Habayashi Wei. It will take at least a month for Li Xin to get familiar with the Ministry of War. OK.

In the afternoon and evening, Li Xin left the Ministry of War.

Qian Sheng trotted all the way, followed behind him, bowed and bowed: "Master Hou arrived at the Ministry of War for the first time today, and the officer has already ordered someone to prepare a banquet in the Ministry of War. Please Master Hou, please do me a favor."

Inviting your boss to dinner is one of the best methods since ancient times.

Li Xin shook his head and said with a smile: "Thank you, Yuanwai Qian, for leading the way today, and let Qian Tan know a lot about the Ministry of War. In the future, I will trouble Yuanwai Qian to teach me, but I still have something to do, so I don't need to invite you to dinner. Wait. In a few days, I will hold a banquet at home, and invite Yuanwai Qian to come over for a meal."

Qian Sheng was overjoyed and bowed again and again.

"Your Majesty, you are being polite. This is what a subordinate official should do. I will definitely pay a visit sometime later."

........................

In the next ten or so days, Li Xin's life will be very regular. After practicing boxing in the morning, he will go to the Ministry of War to report on time, and then stay in the Ministry of War for a whole day.

These tactics must be learned.

Although Li Xin has the identity of a time traveler, he did not specialize in studying history in his previous life, and the history of this world is very different from that of another world, so Li Xin is far from enough to understand and integrate into this era.

Before encountering major events, he needs to absorb as much knowledge of this world as possible.

Although the most important purpose of apprentice Ye Cheng is to make a name for himself, but since old man Ye is willing to teach, Li Xin has no reason not to learn, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

If it was Hou Jingde, he would get advice from Old Man Ye if he sold his wife. This guy would not hesitate to tie up his wife and three or four concubines and sell them on the street.

So Li Xin still studied very hard.

More than ten days passed in a blink of an eye, and it was the first day of August in the first year of Taikang.

The first, tenth, and twentieth days of every month are the days of the Grand Court Meeting. On this day, all officials in the capital, whether civil or military, will gather in the palace for a meeting to discuss major issues.

Li Xin is no exception.

Early in the morning, Li Xin changed into a servant's court uniform. After breakfast, he touched Zhong's small head, and said with a smile, "Have a good time at home with your sister Chuqi, don't be naughty, in a few days We're going to send her back."

The little girl gritted her teeth: "Is it okay not to send sister Chu Qi back?"

Although the two little girls were several years apart, they got along pretty well these days, and Zhong Xiaoxiao gradually became more cheerful, not as closed as before.

Li Xin shook his head and said: "Your sister Chu Qi's mother is still waiting for her at home, send her back first, and pick her up to play with you after a while, okay?"

"it is good."

After talking with the little girl, Li Xin went out on his horse and arrived in the imperial city not long after.

This is the second time he participated in the Dachaohui, and it was also the first time he participated in the Dachaohui during the Taikang Dynasty.

As soon as Li Xin arrived at the gate of Weiyang Palace, he heard hearty laughter.

The tall Hou Jingde strode up to Li Xin and patted Li Xin's shoulder heavily.

"Brother Li, I haven't seen you for a long time!"
