Xu Ji didn't stay in the palace for a long time, even if Liu Hong seemed to have a lot of hopes for him, but for Xu Ji, this was obviously a bit beyond what he could bear, as a man, Xu Ji knew very well that he didn't promise what he couldn't do, so he didn't promise anything to Liu Hong.

After the seal ribbon was in hand, Xu Ji immediately went to the Zhijinwu Mansion, he was also very curious about what trouble He Jin had set up for him, and he also wanted to see how bad the mess left by the villager in Zhang Rang's mouth was. But to be honest, Xu Ji actually cares more about Zhang Rang, how did this guy be able to turn the important position of Zhijin Wu into his own person before, the so-called villager Xu Ji will believe it, this is just Zhang Rang found a more reasonable explanation, I am afraid that the real situation is more complicated than he thinks, then the Northern Army must be a trip to troubled waters, although he should not have such a complaining mood after taking over this trouble, but Xu Ji still can't help but feel a little unhappy in his heart, The position he set foot in is no longer a game of strength between the two sides, and Zhang Rang, that is, the eunuchs of the Ten Standing Servants, must be counted.

But no matter what, since Xu Ji has taken office, he knows very well what he needs to do, and he is no longer worried about these things, these soldiers of the Northern Army are enough for Xu Ji to worry about, and then take a step back and say that at least for the time being, these forces will not make much action against him, and the most important thing is that Xu Ji is actually not so afraid of He Jin, and his opponent on the surface is only this uncle who is not so bright-minded.

However, Xu Ji obviously underestimated the trickiness of the Northern Army, and when he arrived outside the Zhijinwu Mansion, he saw Le Jin arguing with the soldiers guarding the Zhijinwu Mansion with an indignant face. Seeing that the momentum is almost about to start, where does Xu Ji dare to let Lejin do it in this place? This is outside the imperial city, and once there is any trouble, it will be in the hands of He Jin, so Xu Ji hurriedly shouted: "What is the noise here?" ”

Le Jin turned around and saw that the anger on his lord's face had subsided slightly, so he quickly stepped forward and saluted: "Lord, when I came, I said that I was the new Zhijinwu, but these bastards said that the position of Zhijinwu has been vacant for more than ten days, and it is necessary to say that my subordinates are scoundrels!" Xu Ji smiled bitterly and comforted Le Jin: "It's also to blame me for not explaining, I just got the seal of Jinwu from the palace, these soldiers are also considered to be loyal, you are angry." Let's talk about it first. ”

After saying this, Xu Ji stepped forward and said to the soldier at the door: "I don't know why you can recognize what is in my hand?" With that, Xu Ji opened the burden wrapped in the seal of the Jinwu Seal. These soldiers from the Northern Army naturally did not fail to recognize this thing, and when they saw this seal, of course they did not dare to make a salute and said: "Could it be that Lord Horse?" The villain has eyes and does not know Mount Tai, and hopes that the horse will forgive his sins. It's just that the Jinwu Mansion has been quite turbulent recently, what proof has the horse brought? Only the ribbon. I'm afraid the villain can't be released yet. ”

Xu Ji immediately had a dark path in his heart. Although this is just a trivial matter that disgusts Xu Ji. But it was really uncomfortable, but fortunately, Xu Ji had already made all the preparations, and immediately took out the holy decree from his arms and chuckled: "I don't know if this thing may prove my identity?" ”

This holy decree was just handed over to Xu Ji by Liu Hong. And the reason why Xu Ji asked for such a holy decree was also to make a foolproof strategy, but he didn't expect that this would be useful immediately, and the soldier who looked like a small colonel unfolded the holy decree and knew that it was true, who would dare to joke with the holy decree outside this imperial city? In fact, he already believed it when he took out the Jinwu seal ribbon when he beat Xu Ji, but when he heard that his future Shangguan was a young man who was a horse before the crown, there were quite complaints in the northern army, but they were soft-spoken, so they could only give Xu Ji a dismount in this way. But it seems that this new deacon Jingo may not be so easy to deal with, as can be seen from his preparations.

But even with a thousand thoughts in his heart, the little school didn't dare to slack off, hurriedly handed back the holy decree to Xu Ji, bowed and said, "My lord, please." "It's pointless to say anything at this time, I'm afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction with the horse master, and then I won't have to trouble myself every day? When Xu Ji heard this, he turned around and beckoned to Le Jin: "Wen Qian, come with me." ”

Hearing this, the little colonel's face with his head lowered was even more bitter, this guy who looked like a ruffian in the rivers and lakes was really the entourage of the horse master, this good gentleman as the saying goes, it is difficult to prevent the villain, and the horse master is probably not the idle time to find his own trouble, but this one is probably difficult to say. But now it's so that the colonel can only accept it, of course, the colonel is only a little worried but not afraid, although the combat effectiveness of the northern army lives up to the past, but the tradition of unity is preserved in one line, so he definitely doesn't have much to suffer, at least this kid has nothing to do with himself. With such thoughts, the little colonel peeked at Xu Ji and turned around and raised his head and said, "My lord, please come with me, the lobby is here." ”

Of course, he didn't have any good intentions, he already had a plan, once he asked him to lead the way, he must be trusting Zhijinwu, but the Northern Army was planning to give this new official a dismount, and this matter was not so simple to pass.

Although Xu Ji's face did not change, the vigilance in his heart was raised in an instant, this little school offended himself, and it was obviously not normal to lead the way for himself so diligently, the fault was that he wanted to let him go, that is, there were still many interesting things waiting for him. However, Xu Ji was also very curious about what these Northern Army soldiers wanted to do, were they not worried about the revenge of their own Jinwu? Or maybe the soldiers simply don't take themselves seriously.

However, these speculations did not affect Xu Ji's actions, he pretended not to know how to turn around and said to Le Jin: "Wen Qian, in the future, remember to restrain your temper when you are on an errand in the Northern Army, this is not Xiyuan, let alone the group of soldiers you brought out, remember?" "Le Jin was quite incomprehensible when he heard it, he didn't do anything wrong, he suppressed his temper at the door of the Jinwu Mansion and didn't do anything, how could this own lord blame himself, but when he looked up at Xu Ji, Le Jin immediately understood, this was acting, Xu Ji was obviously making a look at him.

Although Le Jin was a little confused, he still replied in a low voice: "Yes, my subordinates remember." Xu Ji nodded with satisfaction and turned back to the little colonel who led the way in front of him and asked, "Why haven't you arrived yet?" Is the Jinwu Mansion really that big? When this little school heard that Xu Ji wanted to be happy, he was still relieved, but when he heard Xu Ji's words, he was immediately frightened, this horse master was really a little out of the way. He turned around quickly about this unrelated matter, so he could only turn around and arch his hand and say, "The horse is in front." ”

Xu Ji didn't frown when he heard this, and the little school's heart jumped immediately, didn't he see something? In this instant, he rushed to the end of the matter and thought about it again and didn't find anything wrong with him, but what Xu Ji said next made him breathe a sigh of relief: "In the mansion, I am the ruling Jinwu, just call me an adult, the name of the horse, Hugh has to mention it again!" ”

Xiao Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to laugh at the same time, Xu Ji's words couldn't help but mean something deliberate. You're a colt. Isn't this identity not being talked about by others? But this can be regarded as an attitude, even if the colonel is not smart, he can see that Xu Ji's real meaning should be that there is no difference in status in the army, and not mentioning this means that Xu Ji is going to be official.

At this time, the front had already arrived at the door of a hall, and the little colonel stopped and bowed to Xu Ji and said, "My lord." This is where the office of the executive is located. Adults came early. You can also catch up with the dots. The villain also needs to be on duty. He retired first. After saying that, he turned around and left, the pressure in his heart was really a little big when he faced Xu Ji, this new deacon Jin Wu didn't look old. But he was quite scheming, and he even had a feeling that Xu Ji had seen through him, so he didn't want to stay longer for a moment after the matter was done.

And Xu Ji, who was behind him, chuckled at his back as he left in a hurry, and said to himself: "Maybe it's a manufacturable material, but I'm afraid it needs to be sharpened." And Le Jin, who was beside him, asked with a puzzled face, "What did you say, lord?" Who still needs to be sharpened? ”

Xu Ji shook his head and replied: "It has nothing to do with you, Wen Qian, get ready, this group of bastards of the Northern Army is probably going to give me a dismount, and my face depends on you." Le Jin showed a fanatical smile on his face when he heard this, and then said: "The lord can rest assured, Le Jin will definitely make them look good, hum, dare to provoke me to embarrass the lord, these bastards are tired of it." "Le Jin is really angry, and I think that I will probably endure it this time, I can't imagine that Xu Ji's words mean that I can still be angry, this is really something that Le Jin is happy to do, I have been holding back in Xiyuan for too long, don't look at the last time I was acting with He Jin, but the guard battalion under his command didn't get a chance to make a move, he had itchy hands.

Xu Ji just smiled when he heard this, didn't say much, but turned around and entered the hall in front of him, there was a plaque hanging above the lobby, and the font on it was obviously from the hand of a famous artist. Xu Ji whispered: "Brave and fearless? How many people in the Northern Army can still do it now? Worthy of the predecessors. ”

After Xu Ji finished speaking, an unfamiliar voice came from behind him: "Oh? Then I want to ask adults what it means to be worthy of their predecessors? When Xu Ji heard this, he turned his head and turned his head to stand at the door behind Lejin, a big man with a dark face and long hair that reached his chest, and he had a playful smile on his face, seeing Xu Ji turn his head to look at him, he didn't panic and continued to speak: "If your lord can't give a satisfactory answer, I think the soldiers of the Northern Army in the camp will not be able to accept you, right?" ”

Xu Ji raised his eyebrows and smiled: "I didn't ask you what your official position is?" The big man bowed and saluted: "The arsenal orders Cheng Wei Yu and Wei Zhongjue to see the lieutenant." Xu Ji smiled, and did not deny the name of the lieutenant in Wei Yu's words, the reason why Wei Yu called Xu Ji a lieutenant was because Zhi Jinwu was the first lieutenant, and he deliberately called it with this name to make it clear that Xu Ji wanted to make it clear. But Xu Ji, who is not a good-looking character, immediately sneered at each other: "Arsenal Lingcheng? I don't know how I have the identity to question Ji Jinwu here? The dignified Northern Army enjoys the best treatment of soldiers from all over the Han Dynasty but has no combat power, I am ashamed of this, could it be that Wei Zhongjue takes this for granted? ”

And Wei Yu was ridiculed like this, but still replied calmly: "Since the resignation of the previous Zhijinwu, his subordinates have temporarily taken charge of the affairs of the Consulate General of Jinwu, and on the basis of this article, his subordinates think that they are qualified to ask for an explanation for the officers and soldiers of the Northern Army." As for what the adults said, I'm afraid I don't know about the horses, the northern army has lost the attention it had at the beginning, and the northern army has not had new recruits for several years, and there are many veterans in the army who still stick to it. ”

Xu Ji smiled disdainfully and said, "Ling Cheng deceived me into not knowing about the military or did I think Xu Wenlie had never led the army?" Is it reasonable to keep veterans in the battalion? The Northern Army is so famous, is it that no one wants to join? Slippery world! This is absolute, Xu Ji said that he was not alone in his incomprehension. Even Liu Hong is puzzled by these problems.

Wei Yu didn't get angry when he heard Xu Ji's words, but just said calmly: "How much can we get after the general's hands have passed the food and salary issued by the imperial court?" In the past few years, all the recruits have not been assigned to the Northern Army, so I'm afraid adults don't know about these situations, right? Of course, it is clear that veterans can't stay in the battalion, but without these people, where will we have the manpower to patrol the imperial city and garrison the imperial city? ”

Xu Ji was silent, he didn't guess so, but he didn't expect He Jin to dare to do such a thing under Liu Hong's nose, which can also explain why He Jin's soldiers are well-equipped, I am afraid that the things that were originally allocated to the Northern Army have been filled by He Jinzhong, and the original Zhijin Wu is Zhang Rang's person, I am afraid that Zhang Rang is also deliberate. This matter is obviously He Jin's big deal. But he didn't expect that Zhang Rang had already cleared the original Zhijinwu before he could do it, so he left this big trouble for himself.

It's easy to solve, but how to eliminate the resentment of these Northern soldiers? I'm afraid that I, the ruling Jinwu, will have to be put into this black pot for my predecessor, and the resentment will be transferred. He is no more. Naturally, he became the target of a new resentment. And under such circumstances, I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to deal with the affairs of the Northern Army. And Le Jin, who saw Xu Ji falling into deep thought, couldn't help but speak: "What is your identity to talk to my family master like this?" Is it the fault of my family master that the Northern Army has been defeated so far? You don't make sense to talk about it! ”

Wei Yu turned his head to look at Le Jin and smiled and said, "That's right, this is not the fault of Lord Concubine, but since he is the ruling Jinwu, he is responsible for the Northern Army." This is the duty of the ruling king, and the head of your family, as the ruling king, naturally has to clean up this mess. Le Jin wanted to say something more, but Xu Ji had already raised his hand to stop him, Xu Ji looked at Wei Yu and said: "Okay, since this is the case, these things will be handed over to me, if I can solve these problems, Wei Lingcheng, can you guarantee to restore the old Northern Army?" ”

Hearing Xu Ji make such a guarantee, Wei Yu was not ready to embarrass Xu Ji anymore, to put it bluntly, these disgusting Xu Ji's practices were still because the soldiers of the Northern Army were unwilling, and their former prestige had fallen to the point where they were now, how could they accept it? But the successive Shangguan continued to disappoint them, so they almost lost the last trace of confidence and patience for the ruling Jinwu, until the appearance of Xu Ji, for them as a concubine Xu Ji is probably the most promising hope, if another person comes to the northern army will one day perish in such a situation, and at that time, no one can save it.

"As long as the adults can do it, the Northern Army will never live up to the expectations of the adults." Wei Yu's words were loud, and Xu Ji stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and said, "You go and get busy, I'll go to the palace to see Your Majesty." Wen Qian, you will follow Wei Lingcheng, and everything will be at his command. After saying that, Xu Ji walked out of the door, and Le Jin behind him looked dazed, didn't his own master say that he would do it? Why did you say a few words to listen to this guy yourself? Le Jin really didn't understand the stakes, so he was a little stunned for a while.

Wei Yu had a solemn face, and said unceremoniously that all the hopes of the Northern Army were pinned on the slightly thin shoulders of this young man, and now only this horse in Luoyang can solve the dilemma of the Northern Army. But what can he do with an arsenal? Even Zhi Jinwu didn't dare to offend He Jin or the eunuchs, let alone him.

But Wei Yu is unwilling, what kind of prestige is the existence of the Northern Army? The prominent Imperial City Forbidden Army has already switched to one of the two sides, and it is much better to resign than to be angry in the Northern Army, but Wei Yu refuses to admit defeat, and his pride does not allow him to give up this prestigious army like this!

But Wei Yu is afraid that he doesn't know what to do, although Xu Ji agreed to him, but for Xu Ji, this is also not a simple matter, and he can't do anything with He Jin, not to mention what He Jin eats, can he still expect him to spit it out? This is obviously unrealistic, and Zhang Rang will definitely not pay attention to himself, so Xu Ji is not telling a lie when he enters the palace, he must inform Liu Hong of the current situation of the Northern Army, and whether he can get those materials can only depend on whether Liu Hong really attaches so much importance to the Northern Army.

To be honest, Xu Ji hates the feeling that this kind of thing is out of control, but now he is really powerless, and the materials are easy to say, but the recruitment of new recruits must be approved, otherwise he will be guilty of complicity, Xu Ji doesn't dare to play so big.

Thinking of this, Xu Ji couldn't help but sigh, this dismount was really a surprise, although he didn't do it, but the result of what he was going to do next was probably not as simple as fighting, but if Liu Hong firmly wanted to keep the Northern Army, he must have to support it, which was obviously against He Jin's plan, so he would naturally offend He Jin even more.

However, there are things to do in life and things not to do, seeing the only glimmer of hope in Wei Yu's eyes, Xu Ji still decided to help with all his might, don't forget that as long as he hugs the Northern Army, it is equivalent to his strength becoming stronger. (To be continued......)
