After making a decision, Li Ke left the palace first, and Huo Gang and they were waiting outside.

Called Huo Gang over, and Li Ke had a conversation with him outside the gate of the imperial city.

"Today's court meeting is over, and Datang's system will be restructured." Li Ke said.

Huo Gang looked at His Highness with some doubts, he didn't know what His Highness was telling him to do this.

"The main thing is to split some departments, refine the functions of the six departments, and hand over professional people to professional things to do, so that the efficiency of the Tang Dynasty can be increased." Li Ke opened his mouth and said, just like the appearance of these departments today, this means that many squires will definitely become Shangshu in the future, and the positions in various departments will naturally add a lot.

"Among the new twelve departments under Shangshu Province, there is an intelligence department, the full name: Datang National Central Intelligence and Security Department, you should know the tasks performed by this department, and my father handed over this department to me, because Datang had no experience in this area before, so I am ready to hand over this department to you, and you will serve as the Shangshu of the intelligence department." Li Ke said seriously.

Huo Gang was stunned, he had always been by Li Ke's side, but speaking of which, he was only eight years older than Li Ke, as Li Ke's guard commander, Huo Gang naturally knew everything about Li Ke very well.

He paused for a moment, and immediately thought of the importance of this department, the Intelligence Department, as the name suggests, is in charge of the intelligence work of the whole country, and how much intelligence has been brought by Yuelai Commercial Bank from all over the Tang Dynasty over the years, of course he knows that not to mention the whole country, just those in Chang'an City, almost can't escape His Highness's ears and eyes.

And now, since this department has been established, it means that the Datang official is also going to start carrying out intelligence detection, and the intelligence department of Yuelai Commercial Bank will definitely not be able to hide it at that time, and if you go in, it means that these things can still be hidden.

Huo Gang instantly understood his importance! The importance of oneself to His Highness! Although he didn't want to leave His Highness's side, because there were so many things to learn from His Highness.

But now His Highness needs him! He was needed for this position.

"Yes! The minister understands His Highness's painstaking efforts, and the minister will do his best to live up to His Highness's expectations. Huo Gang directly bent down and saluted.

Li Ke was stunned for a moment, what painstaking work? But he didn't think much about it, and he had prepared some words of persuasion, but now it seems that he is worthy of being the commander of the guards beside him, and this consciousness is high.

It saves myself some tongue.

"By the way, the Ministry of Intelligence must be poor and white, you directly transfer the backbone you think from Yuelai Commercial Bank to fill this department, especially some spy on the foreign intelligence of neighboring countries, and give them the identity of intelligence officers of the Datang Intelligence Department, so that even if they die, they are also contributing to the country." Li Ke thought for a while.

Huo Gang's eyes lit up, he understood His Highness's thoughts, and he immediately spoke: "Yes, then our entire department will be able to operate soon, and it will not delay the work of Yuelai Commercial Bank, Yuelai Commercial Bank has a lot of reserve supplementary strength." ”

"It doesn't matter if it's delayed or not, their current position doesn't need to change much, and as an intelligence officer, it's normal to have some disguised identities." Li Ke nodded.

"I see." Huo Gang admired it in his heart, worthy of His Royal Highness, in this case, isn't Yuelai Commercial Bank equivalent to the intelligence department of the Tang Dynasty? In this way, some of the actions of Yuelai Commercial Bank in the future will naturally be more convenient.

"Yes!"

"In addition, after these personnel are classified as members of the intelligence department, their monthly money will not be reduced, but these monthly funds will be recorded separately for the time being and will not be released to the public." Li Ke thought about it, a newly established department could have tens of thousands of more personnel in an instant...... It's kind of outrageous.

It is easy to make these gate valve families and ministers vigilant, first make a separate account, record these things, and after the eldest brother succeeds to the throne in the future, the court gate valve family and other aspects must be dealt with, and then throw the bill to the eldest brother.

Anyway, now that the treasury has no money, and the army needs to pay for the restructuring of the army, these tens of thousands of people are just counted directly, and no one will find out at all, so it is better to keep a separate account when the time comes.

"Yes!" Huo Gang's expression was serious, he understood everything.

"Let's go, I'll take you to meet my father now." Li Ke said.

"Yes!"

With Huo Gang, Li Ke re-entered the palace, for the intelligence department of the Tang Dynasty, if Li Ke remembers correctly, there is such a force in history called the bad guys, and the commander of the bad guys is called the bad guys.

But in Datang for so many years, especially Li Ke's current strength, he knows very well that Datang does not have this department, and there is no name for bad people, if there is, Li Shimin would have told him a long time ago, but Lao Li didn't say it, it must be no. However, Li Ke can probably estimate something, and the records of later generations are that the Tang Dynasty has such an intelligence department or a government servant in handling cases.

It's just that there is no exact record, the Tang Dynasty lasted for nearly three hundred years, and many departments were not established in the Zhenguan Dynasty.

Zhenguan years after years of foreign wars, the number of wounded and retired government soldiers is very large, and a large part of these government soldiers in history have become officials in various places, and so on to the Li Zhi period, these government soldiers who have won countless military exploits can be said to be all over the Tang Dynasty, through these government soldiers to build a bad people is very simple, but also a logical thing.

Among the government soldiers, after leaving the army, there are also many people who have no land at home, or who have become bachelors, and there are many people who have become the lowest level of the city, and these people are the natural recruits of bad handsome.

took Huo Gang into the Liangyi Palace, and to Li Ke's surprise, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, and the eldest grandson Wuji were all here.

"Erchen has seen his father." Li Ke saluted Li Shimin.

"Chen Huo has just met Your Majesty and all the princes." Huo Gang also saluted everyone.

"Who is this?" Li Shimin looked at Huo Gang behind Li Ke and asked.

"He was the commander of Erchen's guards before......" Li Ke opened his mouth to introduce, he was just about to say in detail that Huo Gang was very good at this aspect, and then Li Shimin directly interrupted Li Ke's words.

"Oh, that's the intelligence department you picked out, right? Young is a little younger, but following you for so many years, I must have learned a lot of knowledge in this area, and he is also very familiar with you, you can give him guidance if you have nothing to do, okay, I am approved, the next court meeting will directly appoint him as the secretary of the Ministry of Intelligence, and he will build the Ministry of Intelligence. Li Shimin said directly.

Li Ke paused, although he didn't know why Li Shimin blocked it, but since his father didn't let him say it, he didn't say it.
