He came here this time just to say hello.

Does not involve queuing.

As soon as he left, Guo Fushan, the Minister of the Ministry of War, walked in with a large pile of documents from the Ministry of War.

Seeing this, Li Qiu hurriedly took over the stack of documents.

Then he couldn't help but sighed deeply.

"I said Lao Guo, what are you doing?"

"You took the lead in the rebellion as soon as I took office here, didn't you?"

Sometimes Li Qiu's way of thinking and speaking is very different from that of the ancients.

When he said rebellion, he was joking.

But what Guo Fushan heard was like thunder in Guo Fushan's ears.

"oops!"

"I said Li Qiu, Lord Li."

"You are now the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, and your status is quite different from before."

"Don't talk nonsense anymore!"

"If the censor listens to this and plays you and me again later, it will be troublesome then."

Seeing him like this, Li Qiu couldn't help but smile.

"I said, Lao Guo, look at you, you will be impatient if you make a joke."

"Also, don't you have to wait for me to deal with all the paperwork you brought here?"

Hearing Li Qiu's words, Guo Fushan was speechless.

Maybe the entire Tang Dynasty, he is the only one who dares to make fun of the word rebellion.

"You may not know, Mr. Li."

"Since the commander-in-chief went out, the post of Minister of the Ministry of War has always been vacant."

"In the first two months, even the eldest grandson resigned from the position of You Pushe."

"So the military department, which is short of people, is even more busy and difficult."

"During this time, Mr. Fang and I have been struggling to support us."

"Now Li Xiang, you are the right servant, it's great."

"Whether it's about military affairs or about the affairs of the Ministry of War, you know everything."

"I'm only a servant of the Ministry of War, but there are too many things that I can't control."

Hearing his words, Li Qiu couldn't help but glance at him.

Then, while processing the documents from the Ministry of War, he said, "Old Guo."

"You say you, it's been several years."

"You're still so timid."

"Since the Minister of the Ministry of War is vacant right now, then your minister of the Ministry of War is the acting Minister of the Ministry of War."

"You have been serving as the servant for so many years. In terms of qualifications and experience, who can compare to you?"

After hearing his words, Guo Fushan couldn't help shaking his head.

He wanted to say something, but when he thought about Li Qiu, he thought it was better not to talk about some things with Li Qiu.

At this time, Fang Xuanling at the side helped Guo Fushan and said a few words.

"Li Qiu, you may have forgotten that there are two people in the position of servant."

"In addition to Guo Fushan, there is also a servant named Ji Gang."

"So without a clear government order, it is impossible for Guo Fushan to monopolize the government affairs of the Ministry of War."

Hearing this, Li Qiu couldn't help but raise his head.

"Ji Gang?"

"Why have I never heard of this person?"

Fang Xuanling explained to him at this time: "This is Ji Gang."

"It was transferred from Yushitai."

"More than a year."

"I heard that he seems to be the son-in-law of the Wen family."

Guo Fushan couldn't help feeling anxious when he heard that Fang Xuanling had directly handed in the truth.

I thought of my Mr. Fang!

What do you say to this old man about this kind of thing?

If he provokes some troubles because of this, I am already stretched, and the struggling military department will not have to go through it!

But in any case, it was too late.

Sure enough, upon hearing Fang Xuanling's words, Li Qiu gave a light snort.

"The Yushitai?"

"Now any cat or dog can go to the Ministry of War to be a servant?!"

"Lord Fang, I don't know how much power my right servant has when shooting at the Ministry of War?"

Upon hearing Li Qiu's question, Fang Xuanling couldn't help but smile.

It's just a matter of seconds.

"Li Qiu, let's put it this way."

"Except for the appointment of the Minister of the Ministry of War and the Minister of the Ministry of War, you cannot directly make decisions."

"You can basically call the shots on everything else."

"For example, if you want to temporarily distribute power and arrange who will do what government affairs, these are all possible."

Hearing this, Li Qiu nodded.

"That's easy."

"Who is that, Lu Youcheng, help me draft a decree."

"Let Guo Fushan, the servant of the Ministry of War, act as Minister of the Ministry of War for the time being, and take charge of all the government affairs of the Ministry of War."

Hearing Li Qiu's words, Guo Fushan secretly groaned inwardly.

I'm really afraid of what's coming.

Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang, if this matter becomes serious, how will it end?

And at this moment, Shangshu Youcheng Lu De frowned, and said to Li Qiu neither humble nor overbearing: "Master Li, you just took over the position of Shangshu Youpushe today."

"I'm not familiar with the government affairs and officials of various departments."

"The Minister of the Ministry of War, Ji Gang, is quite experienced in the court."

"He is from a noble family again, and his teacher is from a famous family."

"Even the prime minister, Mr. Xiao, favors him a lot."

"Master Li, with your appointment, Guo Shilang is directly in charge of the entire military department. I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public."

Hearing Lu De's words, Li Qiu was almost annoyed.

"Heh, from a noble family, and a teacher from a famous family?"

"Can it be eaten as a meal?"

"Still able to fight?"

"He is an official from Yushitai who came to serve as the Minister of the Ministry of War. I suspect that he has never even been to the battlefield!"

"After you reminded me like this, I remembered something."

"You add one more thing to me, and order Ji Gang, the servant of the Ministry of War, to go to the front line of the Western Regions for training."

"When the battle is over, when Commander Li Jing returns, when will he come back with him?"

"As for whether you can convince the public, it has nothing to do with you, Mr. Lu."

"You just draft the decree for me."

Chapter 708

Lu De's face was stern at this time, and his eyes were full of disdain.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Li, I can't agree with such a decree."

"You should draft it yourself."

Listening to his words, Li Qiu's eyes flashed sharply.

He has been in the army for a long time, and he has long been accustomed to the atmosphere of prohibition in the army.

It was the first time that he was rejected by his subordinates in such a way for such a matter of duty and a natural order.

Then, Li Qiu looked at Lu De with sharp eyes.

"If I remember correctly, Shangshu Youcheng is Zuo Youpushe who handles daily government affairs?"

"Now I ask you to draft a government order for me, but you refuse?"

Lu De looked at Li Qiu with a hint of provocation, and then chuckled.

"Hehe, Master Li, I am Shangshu Youcheng, a majestic fourth-rank official handpicked by His Majesty, not a domestic slave in your mansion."

"I also have my own government affairs, things."

"You can't tell me what to do, what should I do immediately?"

"Drafting this decree as you said, I'm sorry, I don't want to do it for a while."

"If you feel uncomfortable, it can also be understood that I am busy with work and don't have time to do the thing you explained."

Seeing the conflict between Li Qiu and Shangshu Youcheng Lu De, Fang Xuanling on the side looked worried.

He really didn't expect that this Lu De, relying on himself as the core of the Lu family, would have nothing to fear.

Dare to openly challenge Li Qiu like this.

This is Li Qiu, who is very different from other officials.

Did he forget what happened to Qinghe Cui's just now?

And Guo Fushan, the servant of the Ministry of War, was even more anxious and couldn't help stamping his feet.

He wanted to persuade him, but he didn't know how to persuade him in the current atmosphere.

At this time, the anger in Li Qiu's heart seemed to be uncontrollable.

Staring at Lu De, he asked again word by word: "I'll ask you one last time."

"Will you do or not do this decree that you were asked to draft?"

Facing Li Qiu's incomparably fierce aura, this Lu De also gathered all his strength.

"I'm sorry, but I won't do this decree requested by Mr. Li."

"If you feel dissatisfied, my lord, you can go and sue me to your Majesty."

"But I still want to remind you, Mr. Li."

"You can sue me today, and you can sue others tomorrow."

"But you can't sue all the officials in this Shangshu Province."

"At that time, His Majesty will only think that you are incompetent, Mr. Li, and you will not be qualified for the position of You Servant."

"A good word of persuasion, I hope Mr. Li will think twice."
