Chen Liu, Yu County.

Xu Ji has been living a very leisurely life since he returned to Yu County, and all the affairs of Yu County have been handed over to Xun You, Mao Jie, and Chen Qing to deal with, and he has become the most idle person.

However, although life is very comfortable, Xu Ji is not as leisurely as it seems, he knows that he still has a lot of things to do, and now is not the season for him to enjoy such a life. Chen Liu's land alone is enough for him to bother, and at present, Xu Ji has no spare strength, so he has to press the pace of his own conquest, and Taoguang Yanghui is sometimes a way to confuse his opponent.

But Xun You was miserable, he didn't expect Xu Ji to be unscrupulous enough to completely ignore the affairs of Yu County, although this is also a kind of trust, but Xun You deeply suspects that Xu Ji's essence is that he doesn't want to take over these affairs himself. But this is just a matter of thinking about it, Xun You is not interested in teasing Xu Ji, not to mention that it is also a good opportunity to have such an opportunity to try his ability.

Mao Jie gradually turned into a staff member, and Chen Qing walked to the front of the stage in Yuxian instead of him. Xu Ji's move to recruit Chen Qing has to be said to be a clever move, at least Yuxian agrees with Chen Qing, whether it is ability or appeal. It is also thanks to Chen Qing and Xu Ji that he was able to take over Yuxian so safely, and made his subsequent reforms smooth. Although there were no outstanding poor people in Yuxian County, they recruited many grassroots officials who were willing to work hard, which greatly improved the previous exaggerated administration. And Xu Ji's harvest is naturally the people's heart and support.

The most surprising thing for Xu Ji was the news from Yingchuan: Guo Jia is here.

Of course, there was also news of Xun Yu at the same time, and Xu Ji was extremely calm about this matter, he didn't care much about it in the first place. What's more, he doesn't have the intention of settling down yet, and having more family members is a kind of stumbling block for him. Xun Yu doesn't have to worry about this, Xu Ji is not worried about Xun Yu's departure, or Xu Ji never thinks that such a thing can make the two of them as close friends deviate from morality.

Of course, Xu Ji is not without worries, Guo Jia's departure from Yingchuan means that Xun Yu must bear these pressures from the family alone, from his own inner struggle. This is probably a greater ordeal, Xu Ji and Guan have great trust in Xun Yu but are still a little worried, but all this is his imagination, everything must wait until Guo Jia arrives to understand.

Guo Jia also arrived soon after, naturally he was in the dust, and he began to complain as soon as he saw Xu Ji. However, Xu Ji naturally didn't pay attention to Guo Langzi's behavior, and just took out a pot of good wine to make Guo Langzi immediately solemn.

Although Guo Langzi is not doing it on weekdays, but the big thing is still not ambiguous, he was really a little thrilling when he left Yingyin, and when he went out of the city, it happened to be too guarded to patrol the city, which almost caused him to be unable to go out of the city, but fortunately, Guo Fengxiao had some ability after all, and he relied on a small trick to get out of the city.

And all the people he brought out from Yingyin were naturally handed over to Xun You, these people are Xu Ji's old subordinates, and they are naturally more trustworthy, Xu Ji does need such a person at present, after all, his real henchmen in Yu County are not too many, and Guo Jia's arrival naturally makes Xu Ji more confident in his future plans.

Guo Jia and Xu Ji can also be regarded as a reunion after a long absence, since Xu Ji left Yingchuan to go to Changshe for half a year, the reunion of old friends is naturally to sit down and warm up the wine and have a long talk.

And Xu Ji naturally would not disappoint Guo Jia, he put a good wine in the post governor's mansion to welcome Guo Jia.

And Guo Langzi is a person who can't walk when he sees good wine, so naturally he will not refuse Xu Ji's invitation, not to mention that he also has a lot to say to Xu Ji.

During the banquet, the wine passed three rounds, and the dishes passed five flavors.

Guo Jia finally stopped what he was doing, and said with a long sigh of relief: "Wen Lie, today is the easiest day I have ever had in the past few years. ”

Xu Ji stretched out his hand and poured a glass of wine, and said with a smile: "Guo Langzi will also have a difficult time?" ”

Guo Jia's face immediately changed when he heard this: "Okay, you Xu Wenlie, if it weren't for your bad things, why would I, Guo Fengxiao, work so hard?" You are free, but I have never had such a good life. ”|

Xu Ji naturally knew that this prodigal son was cheating, so he ignored it, and just said indifferently: "Then Fengxiao gave me back such a good wine that he drank for many years?" ”

Guo Jia's face changed again when he heard this, and he said flatteringly: "No, no, no, Wen Lie, if you have something to say, how can you return this wine after drinking it?" ”

"If the wine can't be repaid, just convert it, you can pay me back, and I won't take advantage of you, just according to the market price."

Even if he knew that Xu Ji was joking, Guo Jia still couldn't help but secretly scold Xu Ji in his heart for being shameless, where did he Guo Jia get the money? Doesn't paying back the money mean asking for his life?

"Okay, Wenyeol, I was wrong. Just spare me. We get down to business, get down to business. Of course, Guo Jia only has to admit it, he has really never won against Xu Ji, at least not in the battle of words, after all, it is a short hand and a short mouth, Guo Fengxiao is really not so cheeky and does not admit it.

Since it was time to get down to business, Xu Ji no longer joked, but said solemnly: "It's okay, I also wanted to ask you what the situation in Yingchuan is?" ”

Guo Jia shook his head when he heard this: "It's not good, it seems that Qingliu and the party did not get any benefits in the court, although Lu Zhi was acquitted later, but the party took advantage of this to make trouble and was forcibly suppressed by the general." Yingchuan Shizi naturally didn't take any advantage, and even the Taishou was changed. It seems that the plan we are waiting for has also been seen by the Yingchuan family, so I don't dare to stay any longer. ”

Xu Ji groaned: "Originally, I didn't think that my plan was seamless, and it would naturally be seen by people with good intentions, so it didn't hurt. The party is still in a hurry, but it has nothing to do with you and me. It's just Wen Ruo's thing, what is it? ”

Speaking of this, Guo Jia was really full of bitterness: "Wen Bo said that I found you a family affair, I thought it must be a trouble, and sure enough, the most embarrassed person who did not pass the door disregarded Wen Bo's face and repented and wanted to marry his daughter to Wen Ruo, presumably to separate the relationship between the two of you." I thought that I couldn't do this, so I planned to rob Wen Ruo, who knew that you and Wen Ruo had already planned for a long time, and I wasted my effort and energy in vain. ”

Xu Ji shook his head and chuckled: "Guo Fengxiao, you will have such a good heart?" In my opinion, I'm afraid it's just to calculate Wen Ruo, right? And then what? Why don't you continue with your plans? ”

Guo Jia said with a bitter face: "Wen Ruo is grounded and can't spread the news, so I naturally don't dare to act rashly, and Wen Bo said that you and Wen Ruo may have other plans, how dare I take risks?" ”

"Well, what's going on with Xun Chen you said?"

"This person is Brother Wenruo, who just returned from Jizhou not long ago. It's for Wen Ruo's words. Wen Lie, you've also heard Wen Ruo comment on his brother, right? I think about it, he is afraid that he has seen that something is wrong, if he does not leak it, he can only be involved, and it is the safest to be the one who is prosperous and the other is lost. ”

Xu Ji sighed: "How can you be convinced of him if you are so calculating?" I'm afraid that not only will I not be able to help you, but I will be in trouble. ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "So Wen Bo stayed in Yingchuan to supervise, and to convince him, isn't that what you should do in the Lord?" After that, he squeezed his eyebrows at Xu Ji.

Xu Ji couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand, he really didn't have anything to do about this prodigal son: "You said it was good or bad, since the matter has come to this, then so be it." Did he say when he would come to Yuanxian? ”

Guo Jia shook his head: "I didn't say it, but I think it's been recently, Wen Lie, you don't have to worry about him, how dare Wen Bo move lightly in Yingchuan?" ”

Xu Ji couldn't help but glance at Guo Jia when he heard this, and said, "It's okay not to talk about this, Wen Bo is still bothering him at his age?" Guo Fengxiao, you really ......"

Before Xu Ji finished speaking, Guo Jia shouted loudly: "How can I be blamed for this?" I also asked Wen Bo if he wanted to come to Yu County, and he scolded me and said that he was too old to withstand the bumps in the road, not to mention, you also have to blame me? Besides, it's Wenbo himself who takes care of the matter, how is it my fault again? Wronged, who did I, Guo Jia, provoke anyone, and even blame me for this? ”

Xu Ji looked at Guo Jia and shook his head with a smile: "Okay, okay, I don't blame you for this, it's my fault, okay?" Didn't Wen Ruo ask you to send me anything after that? ”

"That's not true, but I think Wen Ruo probably doesn't have the leisure to care about you, and he himself is in trouble. Oh, by the way, what about the Liang Xi who was promoted last time? Why didn't I see him? ”

Xu Ji's face was bitter, and he sighed: "Don't talk about you, I haven't seen him either." This person is very high, I went to visit Chen Jun in person, and I didn't even see him. ”

Hearing this, Guo Jia smiled and said: "I can't think of it, I can't imagine it, you Xu Wenlie will also be rejected one day." Haha"

Xu Ji rolled his eyes and said, "That's it, don't mention him, I'll visit again after Chen Liu's business." You've come just in time, and after a few months of recuperation, I'm going to do something to Xiangyi and Jiwu, and I need someone to go to another place. ”

Guo Jia waited for this sentence for a long time, and now when he heard it, he naturally said with high interest: "It's so good, I don't know how Wen Lie plans it?" ”

Xu Ji chuckled: "Does Guo Fengxiao still want me to tell him what to do?" ”

Guo Jia was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said with a smile: "Naturally, I want it, the lord said that the subordinates are good to do, right?" Even if the Lord doesn't say what to do, you have to give me a goal, right? ”

Xu Ji only said four words: "Xiangyi, the whole territory." ”

Guo Jia chuckled and replied, "Obey." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and they did everything they could. However, a decision has been made to change the situation of Chen Liu, and Guo Jia and Xu Ji both understand what they want the result to be, and they are naturally confident that they can do it.

And Xiangyi and Jiwu were defenseless against Xu Ji's intentions.
