The surrounding situation is extremely bad for Xu Ji, but Xu Ji has a lot of opportunities, the first thing that needs to be solved urgently is to establish his intelligence source, although Bo Cai did not accompany him this time, but Xu Ji still brought a few capable members of the shadow, Xu Ji does not expect that he can fully control the size of Luoyang's actions, the only thing he needs is to have enough intelligence support in the face of certain situations.

Of course, this is not an easy thing, Luoyang is not as complex as Chen Liu, the complexity of the imperial capital is really a little complicated, the laying of the shadow is really a lot of obstacles, the trouble is not only this, because Xu Ji has no foundation in Luoyang, so he has to be careful in everything, and even these actions must be hidden from Liu Hong, otherwise it is difficult to say whether it will cause the dissatisfaction of His Majesty the Emperor, as for Yuan Shao, the great enemy, Xu Ji has not yet had a good way to solve it, and he can only take one step at a time.

The next thing is very simple, after the West Garden became an army, it was natural to start regular training, because the West Garden has been very lively in recent days, except for Xu Ji's first battalion, each department is busy training soldiers and preparing military affairs, and Xu Ji's battalion is as calm as ever.

However, there is an old saying, the so-called tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, although Xu Ji only wants to spend this time quietly, but this obviously does not depend on him, this is just the third day when he was recruited by Liu Hong as a concubine, and some people talked about it, the reason is very simple, the soldiers under Xu Ji have never been trained, and only the camp under his command in the West Garden is always quiet.

Even Liu Hong specially sent Jian Shuo to inquire about this matter, and Xu Ji's answer was very brief: "When the military parade is completed, everything will be known, and the minister will never dare to make a mistake." He will live up to His Majesty's expectations. Liu Hong is naturally skeptical, and Xu Ji is sixteen years old after all. It's really hard to reassure, but Liu Hong can't force Xu Ji to do anything. After all, the situation that he made a few days ago can't be slapped in the face by himself now, so Liu Hong can only choose to trust Xu Ji.

And Xu Ji is of course not without action, at least he has secretly begun to manage his relationship in Luoyang, there are always some people in Luoyang who are neither He Jin's faction nor the eunuchs' party, of course, most of these people are firmly on the emperor's side, these people are Xu Ji's potential objects to woo, and most of these people have a fairly high reputation and prestige, Xu Ji knows very well that intersecting with these people is also a kind of protection for himself. To some extent, these people are Xu Ji's umbrella.

And Xu Ji has two advantages in approaching these people, first of all, he is a concubine, and secondly, he is a disciple of Sima Hui, don't look at Sima Hui's embarrassing status in Yingchuan, but this old gentleman is an unscrupulous Confucian, any scholar is to be respected, and as the only disciple recognized by Sima Hui, Xu Ji also easily contacted these people through this layer.

Among them, the most worthy of intersection is undoubtedly Cai Yong, but Xu Ji soon had to say goodbye to this great Confucian, and Cai Yong has been falsely accused for repeatedly offending the eunuchs. He was convicted of exile. It's not that Xu Ji doesn't want to speak for Cai Yong, it's just that although he has a high status now, he has no real power, and there is a vague handwriting in this matter, Xu Ji is really not sure that he can save Cai Yong from Zhang Rang. Of course, the more important thing is that it is useless for Xu Ji to save Cai Yong, as long as Cai Yong is in the ten permanent servants for a day, he will not be able to live in peace for a day, and Cai Yong himself understands this very well.

Even Xu Ji asked Cai Yong about this. Cai Yong's answer made Xu Ji extremely admired: "If the eunuchs are not removed, the Han will not be safe." Cai Yong is a scholar, and martial arts cannot save the country. I have to fight hard, it doesn't matter if I succeed or not, I just want to be worthy of my heart! Although this is idealistic, Cai Yong's bearing is still quite admirable, if the civil officials have such a temperament, they may not necessarily get to the point where they are now, but Xu Ji just thinks about it.

And Cai Yong's trip to Shuofang this time can be regarded as a light car, only with an old servant and a cart of books, Cai Yong's wife died early, and there is only one daughter under his knees, Cai Yong is of course reluctant to let his daughter accompany him to Shuofang to suffer from the cold, Xu Ji suggested that he send his daughter to the palace to be taken care of by Yining, Cai Yong of course will not refuse this suggestion.

First of all, the palace is safe enough, and secondly, this time it is probably the eunuch's idea to deal with himself, of course Liu Hong doesn't want to deal with Cai Yong, in Liu Hong's eyes, although this old guy doesn't speak very well, but there is absolutely no need to doubt his loyalty, if he really can't stop him, he will never let Cai Yong really exile Shuo Fang.

Xu Ji's help is not all selfless, first of all, Cai Yong's high expectations should not be underestimated, although he can't use it, he can borrow some of it, and the reason why he put forward this suggestion is purely Cao Cao's request for him, the relationship between Cao Cao and Cai Yong is really not shallow, and Xu Ji can also see that this guy is afraid that Cai Yong's daughter has some other thoughts, but Cao Cao really can't help Cai Yong, but Xu Ji can, first of all, Cao Cao has no identity and power to participate in this matter, Xu Ji is different, after all, the horse is half a royal family, Mo Xiao looked at such an identity, at least Cao Cao couldn't take Cai Yong's daughter by himself, and Cai Yong's relatives were not many for a long time, so there may be a lot of people who can save Cai Yong's daughter at first glance, but now only Xu Ji can be saved.

It is also because of this that Cao Cao owes Xu Ji a favor, although helping Cai Yong is indeed good for Xu Ji but has little effect, and he also risks offending the ten permanent servants, these Cao Cao of course knows the Tao, and Xu Ji still helped the most, so Cao Cao's favor can only be recognized, not to mention that Cao Cao is really grateful to Xu Ji.

But this is also an indescribable debt, Xu Ji can see that Cao Cao is interested in Cai Yan, but depending on the age, there is no possibility of an accident between the two, not to mention that with Cai Yong's love for Cai Yan, he will never let his daughter marry this Cao Cao who already has a wife, so Cao Cao can only send it empty with full feelings. As for Xu Ji, he really doesn't have any ideas about this little girl, he is a little quiet, Cai Yan is also quiet because of his life experience, this is inevitably too respectful to get along, Xu Ji doesn't want his life to be like this in the future, so he likes Yining, the girl's personality jumps out, just to reconcile Xu Ji's too quiet life. The reason why Xu Ji helped was more because of sympathy, how innocent the little girl was, there was no need to be implicated in suffering.

As for Yining. Xu Ji will arrive in Luoyang for half a month, but he still hasn't seen each other, it's not that he doesn't want to. is really set by the rules, Xu Ji really wants to know how the girl will react after knowing that the person she wants to marry is Xu Ji. But it's destined to be gone.

After sending Cai Yong away and Xu Ji's life began to calm down again, Yuan Shao finally learned to be obedient after suffering Xu Ji's several losses in a row, and he didn't come to the door to find trouble for several days, but Xu Ji was even more distressed, Yuan Shao made it clear that the carriage and horse were waiting for the opportunity, once he showed his feet, what was waiting for him would inevitably be Yuan Shao's thunderous attack, which might be fatal.

So when Xu Ji saw that Yuan Shao's side was quiet, he immediately started his own actions. The relationship between the eight lieutenants of the West Garden is far more complicated than imagined, Yuan Shao has the ability to let Chun Yuqiong come out to do things for him, Xu Ji naturally has a way to provoke others to find trouble for Yuan Shao.

And Xu Ji's goal is very simple, that is Feng Fang. Speaking of Feng Fang, I have to mention his identity, he is the son-in-law of the eunuch Cao Jie, Cao Jie's bad deeds are not to mention, since the first year of Xiping, this person has been in power, and his relatives are all high-ranking officials, and Feng Fang is taking advantage of this to enter the official career, and now although Cao Jie is dead, his power is also very prosperous. Feng Fang was also able to enter the West Garden through the afterglow of Cao Jie. To be honest, Xu Ji was really shocked when he saw this information, this Feng Fang, who didn't seem to be capable, had a lot of background, but it was precisely because of Cao Jie that Feng Fang's reputation was extremely poor. That's fine, it's just that Feng Fang not only has a bad reputation, but his behavior is even more disgraceful.

If it weren't for Cao Jie's loyalty to Liu Hong back then, Feng Fang would probably never be included in the West Garden, but such a person would also be best used. This is undoubtedly good news for Xu Ji.

In terms of origin, it can be said that today's ten permanent servants can be regarded as characters in the same vein as Cao Jie. It's just that Xu Ji is quite disdainful of Cao Jie, and this person's level is probably more than one grade lower than Zhang Rang. But emotion is emotion after all. Xu Ji quickly put his mind back to provoking the relationship between Feng Fang and Yuan Shao.

Feng Fang has also restrained a lot since Cao Jie's death, so it is not easy to use any tricks to force him to fight against Yuan Shao, I can't say that this guy has more to gain than he gains by biting back, and it is obviously not easy to provoke, Feng Fang is just acting and being criticized, but it does not mean that he has no brains, and it obviously takes a lot of effort to provoke.

And the other Zhao Rong is much more difficult to deal with than Feng Fang, this one is clean, and there is no bad deeds to follow, and he is promoted like himself, speaking of which he and Xu Ji are relatively similar, but Zhao Rong's background is not like Xu Ji, Zhao Rong is from a family. And the last one who can be used by Xia Mou, Xu Ji flipped through the information sent by the shadow, and it seems that he can't see why this person can enter the West Garden, before this, this is a real civil servant, the former counselor, but now he is the left captain of the West Garden, what is Liu Hong's intention to put Xia Mu in the West Garden, Xu Ji really didn't understand, it is not so that Xia Mu can persuade the rest, right?

Based on the three pieces of information sent by the shadow, Xu Ji also calculated that the power of the eighth lieutenant of the West Garden was subordinate, Jian Shuo was the official force directly under Liu Hong, and Yuan Shao was faintly the second seat in the West Garden, Chun Yuqiong was his person, and Cao Cao now owed himself a favor, and it was impossible for Yuan Shao to turn his face with him, but he couldn't count on him to help. Xia Mu is neutral, but I am afraid that he will be biased towards himself, after all, he is a colt and the real controller of Liu Hong in the West Garden, but it is difficult to say whether this person can help him as a civil official. Zhao Rong is worth wooing, but Xu Ji is not sure if he is working for himself, if Zhao Rong is loyal to Liu Hong, it will not play a big role, but it is still worth thinking about. And Feng Fang was obviously the only choice to block Yuan Shao for himself.

After figuring out this, Xu Ji immediately started to act, but Xu Ji did not go to Feng Fang for the first time, so the intention of relying on Ah was too obvious, and Xu Ji was the first to visit Yuan Shao under the banner of visiting his colleagues.

The intention is very simple, a look at the reality, Xu Ji is very sure that his age has confused Yuan Shao to the greatest extent, he never thought that this series of actions were all from his handwriting, it is estimated that Yuan Shao is now trying to find out the person who gives advice to Xu Ji. But it was in vain.

And Yuan Shao was of course very surprised by Xu Ji's arrival, of course Yuan Shao would not believe that Xu Ji couldn't see the hostility he had already expressed, so why did Xu Ji come here? Of course, Yuan Shao was not worried about Xu Ji's actions, this was the imperial capital. Even if Xu Ji did something to himself in the West Garden, he couldn't get out of it, so it was absolutely impossible for Xu Ji to destroy his future. So Yuan Shao is not worried about this.

But in this way, Xu Ji's arrival is even more suspicious, Yuan Shao doesn't think that Xu Ji is really here to visit. The enemy only needs to strike and does not need to be treated as such. But no matter what Yuan Shao thought, Xu Ji had already arrived, he still had to receive it, and he also wanted to see what Xu Ji wanted to do.

Yuan Shao was still a little surprised when they met, Xu Ji really just said some polite words, Yuan Shao replied casually without itching or pain, in his opinion, Xu Ji must have something to do, so he has been waiting for Xu Ji to make a move, but Yuan Shao can't wait. After a few casual words, Xu Ji got up and said goodbye. This was really beyond Yuan Shao's expectations, but it was impossible for him to leave Xu Ji down to ask, so Yuan Shao watched Xu Ji leave his big tent inexplicably.

Of course, Yuan Shao couldn't imagine that the real purpose of Xu Ji's trip was just to probe Yuan Shao's tone, but this was also an unexpected gain, Yuan Shao was shocked by Xu Ji's hand, and he pondered for a long time. But in the end, there was nothing to gain, of course, this will become Yuan Shao's laughing stock, not to mention.

Xu Ji's next stop was to meet the main goal of his trip, that is, Feng Fang. To be honest, Xu Ji hates Feng Fang very much, whether it is how he treats people or how he behaves. But it is this kind of person that may be more troublesome to deal with, because they will always use some unconventional methods, Feng Fang can give Xu Ji a headache, so it must not make much difference to Yuan Shao, and this is also the reason why Xu Ji has to come after working hard to endure his dissatisfaction with Feng Fang.

Xu Ji was able to convince Feng Fang without preparation. Provoking is a very profound course, and it is even more difficult to provoke people like Feng Fang.

This is also the first time Xu Ji has seen Feng Fang, in fact, except for Cao Cao and Jian Shuo. The remaining few members of the Xiyuan Army can be regarded as first acquaintances, and Jian Shuo has already seen them in Yingyin last time. Although Xu Ji didn't like this old guy's yin and yang weirdness, his status and power in the West Garden were greater than his own. As for Cao Cao, old acquaintances and colleagues are enough to explain the relationship, not to mention that Cao Cao still owes Xu Ji favors, so he is naturally not a stranger.

And the reason why Xu Ji didn't choose to visit Cao Cao first was just because Cao Cao didn't care about the order, but others didn't have to, Jian Shuo didn't have time to return to the West Garden in recent days, so Xu Ji also saved a lot of effort. Of course, the most important reason is that Xu Jihe knows very well that Cao Cao will not give him any great help, and he can remain neutral, Xu Ji is already grateful. Others may not know the Tao yet, but Cao Cao is actually the most difficult person to deal with among the eight people in Xiyuan.

Feng Fang was also very surprised by Xu Ji's arrival, they didn't have any old feelings: "Could this be the military captain, what kind of wind blew you here?" The compliment in Feng Fang's words was not concealed at all, and Xu Ji also replied with an indifferent smile: "Ji is only the first lieutenant of Xiyuan, and the title of horse is not appropriate now, after all, there is no fixed number, General Feng should not torture me." Xu Ji's words were not only modest but also very face-giving to Feng Fang, according to his military rank and official position, Xu Ji was bigger than Feng Fang, not to mention Xu Ji's identity as a concubine, and Xu Ji gave Feng Fang face, and this person immediately understood that Xu Ji was about to be close.

To be honest, Feng Fang really has no reason to refuse, Xu Ji is now the hottest new star in Luoyang City, and Liu Hong's holy decree Xu Ji's identity instantly soared. Originally, as one of the eight captains of the West Garden, this was already an extremely prominent thing, and now it is the princess who is married, and it is clear that Liu Hong is extremely optimistic about Xu Ji, so everyone knows that it is absolutely right to tie up this little horse. But there is no chance, not to mention that this new colt stays in the West Park military camp all day long, not to mention that this person is the identity of the colt, and many means to please Lu will not be used. And people have this identity at this age, is there anything missing? Therefore, there are many people in Luoyang City who want to convince Xu Ji, but they have no chance.

And now in front of Feng Fang is Xu Ji's intention to get close to him, which is simply a surprise for Feng Fang, he even saw the opportunity to replicate the glory of his father-in-law, which has to follow Xu Ji's relationship to the current emperor, so isn't Feng Fang one step to the sky? So Feng Fang immediately changed to a more polite attitude than before, and even a flattering appearance.

Of course, Xu Ji is happy to see such a thing, Xu Ji is still thinking about how to provoke the relationship between Feng Fang and Yuan Shao, and now it seems that it may not be so troublesome.

Of course, this is also because Xu Ji has not made any public moves in Luoyang City in order to avoid more trouble, and now according to his fiery level, as long as he says what he wants, there are a lot of powerful people and families in Luoyang City who are willing to find it for Xu Ji.

Of course, it is fortunate that Xu Ji has always kept a low profile, so Liu Hong is relieved, a normal sixteen-year-old boy has long been unable to find the north in the face of such a temptation, and his son-in-law is not only unmoved at all, but even does not leave the West Garden at all in the camp, which almost makes Liu Hong dream with a smile, Xu Ji's appearance gave him great hope, this poor boy seems to be really a fast son-in-law of Chenglong given by God.

But this is really wronging Xu Ji, he is just to avoid more trouble. However, the current situation is slowly beginning to favor Xu Ji, which is something that Xu Ji is happy about. (To be continued......)
