32 The recommendation is still asking for support, and I feel that no one supports it!!

At night, after Xi Xi finished serving Ji Xi and washing, Ji Xi lay on her side on the couch and studied a book in her hand. Xi Fei was also busy with the things at hand, so she remembered what she thought during the day, and was anxious about Xi Guocai.

Looking at Ji Xi, who was lying there at the moment, he estimated that he could almost discuss this matter with Ji Xi, walked to Ji Xi's side gently, and said tentatively: "Master Hou, Qi Heng invited the princes to a banquet to celebrate the victory in the first battle with Lu, and the biggest reason for the victory in this battle is that Qi Huan worships Xiang Guan Zhong. And now that my country is a direct vassal state under the Son of Heaven, how can I be slightly inferior in appointing talents? Besides, Hou Ye has always been bound by the power in the hands of the clan, so why not take advantage of this opportunity to cultivate his own power and cultivate wise men? ”

Listening to Xi Fei's words, it made Ji Xi interested, got up and put down the music in his hand, calmed his eyes, and pondered: "Madame's words are reasonable, my Xi country is a direct vassal state, if it is slightly inferior to other countries in terms of employing people, it will inevitably be laughed at." It's also that the power in the hands of my Xiguo clan is too great, it's time to cut it, and the talents in my hands are all my own, and my psychology is also down-to-earth. Merely...... This talent is also available but not sought, some time ago, I met a talented man, and he is really a dragon and phoenix among people, but it's a pity that Benhou is difficult to recruit. As he spoke, he shook his head and sighed, and his tone was inevitably a little regretful.

Seeing that Ji Xi was still thinking about Kazama to this day, Concubine Xi didn't laugh, and said tenderly: "Hou Ye still doesn't forget the Kazama envoy today, it seems that Hou Ye really appreciates Kazama's envoy." It's just that Kazama seems to be frivolous on the outside, but in fact his temperament seems to be arrogant, the king of Qi is kind to him, he will never turn his back on the king of Qi, this person Hou Ye can't get it. ”

Ji Xi also sighed, and said: "Yes, Ben Hou also knows that such a person must be chivalrous and courageous, if he was moved by me that day to join me, maybe I will not appoint him." Today, he left the old man so casually, and it is inevitable that he will leave me in the future. ”

Xi Fei looked at Ji Xi and smiled warmly: "It's good that Master Hou can see through that." ”

But in the next second, Ji Xi was a little sentimental, "I can see through it, but if I look around my country, there are still no talents, there is a shortage of talents, and it must be a mixture of fish and dragons to go to the people to find it, when will it take to identify Puyu?" ”

Xi Fei's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, smiled mysteriously, and said: "The folk talents will grow in the future, and I don't know the specifics, why doesn't Hou Ye choose them from the inside?" Once you know the roots, you can also study your knowledge. ”

When Ji Xi heard this, he made some sense, nodded and said, "Madam is reasonable, but who is suitable...... In Madame's opinion, who can afford to be virtuous? ”

Concubine Xi looked at the expectation in Ji Xi's eyes, and said with a slight smile: "If you choose among the young talents in my Xi Kingdom, the concubine thinks that General Yuan Hong is a good candidate." ”

"Yuan Hong?" Ji Xi heard the name, and the expression on his face was slightly hesitant.

Xi Fei continued: "The last time I saw General Yuan Hong, I felt that this person was extraordinary, although he was born as a military general, but he did not lose the grace of a wise person, and at the same time he had the agility of a military general, and the most important thing is that this person is a close friend of Hou Ye, with a stable temperament, not arrogant or impatient, he is really a first-class talent, what about Hou Yejue?" ”

Ji Xi raised her head, stared into Xi Fei's eyes, and with a playful tone, quipped: "Madame has really seen it thoroughly, no wonder I took a few more looks in the paddock that day, isn't it Madame, do you think Yuan Hong looks handsome, what other thoughts do you have?" ”

As soon as Xi Fei heard this, her face immediately changed greatly, and she immediately frowned, and said sharply: "Hou Ye, the concubine was originally within the palace walls, and she shouldn't have been involved in state affairs, but she was loved by Hou Ye, and she didn't blame her for sharing it, and she wanted to solve the problem for Hou Ye, but now Hou Ye actually said these words, which broke my heart." With that, he flicked his sleeves and was about to leave.

Ji Xi saw it, it was terrible, Xi Fei was really angry, hurriedly stepped forward to hug her, and didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, and hurriedly coaxed: "Madam, madam, don't be angry, I'm playing with you, where did you get so suspicious?" Ben Hou understands you, and he also knows Yuan Hong's personality, it's just a joke, don't take it seriously. ”

Ji Xi's joke made Xi Fei sad, Hou Ye was young and ambitious, but he couldn't last, the Son of Heaven was smart but his heart was not free, and he could share the pros and cons but it was difficult to preside over the overall situation, this is really a disadvantage, and it must be eradicated. Worried about Xiguo, a slight melancholy appeared on his face, and he sighed: "Master Hou, you are in a high place in the temple, and you must not say such jokes again, otherwise what will the clan think of it, and how long will the power of this Xiguo be held in your hands." ”

Ji Xi stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around Xi Fei and echoed: "Yes, yes." Listen to Madame. ”

Xi Fei pushed away Ji Xi's arm, looked at Ji Xi seriously, and said solemnly: "Master Hou, my recommendation of General Yuan Hong is definitely not a reckless idea. In this court, the clan relatives only saw each other colluding with each other, and traitorous courtiers abounded, but only General Yuan Hong was self-purifying, perhaps because he was born as a military general and had a proud temperament, but it was also in this way that he achieved his sensibility and righteousness, and he was the same on the outside. During this period of time, it can be seen that General Yuan Hong is consistent with his words and deeds, and now there is a shortage of talents, and the concubines think that General Yuan Hong can take this role. ”

Ji Xi sighed with a smile, grabbed his wife's snow-white jade finger, and said, "Zhai'er, I know." Yuan Hong is both civil and military, cautious in words and deeds, I know this, I had thought about promoting him before, but I was helplessly stopped by my clan relatives, and I couldn't respond for a long time, so I had to give up. ”

Xi Fei was puzzled, "Blocked?" ”

Ji Xi let go of the hand holding Xi Fei and slowly walked to the side, a lot of helplessness was difficult to confide, "This Xi country seems to be a marquis, but it is not a prince in power. I, the prince, only got half of the rights, and the other half was in the hands of the Xiguo clan. My parents died when I was young, and I was assigned to the territory of Xiguo, and my clan relatives assisted in ascending the throne, and I don't know how many years have passed, saying that it is still in power but only half of it has been returned, leaving the general decision-making power in their own hands, for the future, so many of the decisions of this Hou have been affected. ”

Xi Fei listened to the concealment in this, and really didn't know that there were these inside stories. No wonder it is impossible not to see Yuan Hong's virtuous ability with the intelligence of the Hou Ye, and this is the reason why he has not been sealed for a long time. I had heard that the iron door of the Xiguo clan was difficult to knock, but I didn't know that it was so heavy. But freezing three feet is not a day's cold, and thawing is not a day's work, and it is unlikely that you want to break this stubborn shackle in an instant.

In his heart, he was anxious for Ji Xi, and hurriedly said: "Master Hou, you are the monarch of this country, the clan relatives are just clan relatives, and you are the only one who makes the final decision in this country. ”
