Now for Xu Ji, on the one hand, he needs to think about how to deal with Yuan Shao's threat, and on the other hand, he must always be on guard against the calculations of Zhang Rang, an old fox. So a mature intelligence network is needed, but in this case, Xu Ji will definitely not say it to Shi A, but it is not too much to ask for these things with his identity as a concubine, not to mention that Yuan Shao's matter Xu Ji can be regarded as nine points true and one point false, and Shi A can't believe it.

And the reason why Shi A compromised was not only that he was held by Xu Ji, but more importantly, Xu Ji did not want to encroach on the Hero Building, and if he only worked for the current dynasty, Shi A could accept this level, although it was still not the result that Shi A wanted, but at least this was the extent that Shi A could accept it.

And Xu Ji's of course is not that he doesn't want to take the hero building as his own, but this is a little unrealistic, first of all, he doesn't have enough capital, and the power position in a place like Luoyang is not even on his head Xu Ji, and if he wants to swallow the hero building in one go, I am afraid that it is the way to die, and the hero building has stood in Luoyang for many years, and it is definitely not something that he Xu Ji can do if he wants to take it for himself.

After returning to the camp, Xu Ji thought that An Sheng was waiting for the day of Liu Hong's military parade, but a sudden summoning order ruined Xu Ji's original plan. In fact, Xu Ji doesn't want to get too close to Liu Hong now, the closer he gets to the core of power, the more dangerous it is for him, Liu Hong wants to be a pawn, but Xu Ji is not so willing to play this role. Although this is already his father-in-law, Xu Ji's opinion of him has not improved, Liu Hong's impression of Xu Ji is really a little deep-rooted, and Xu Ji's actions of pushing him on the fire frame are really difficult to make people have a good impression of him.

But despite this, Xu Ji still had to go. Now his life and death, blessings and misfortunes are all related to this faint king, even if he doesn't think about him, he can't help but take his life and death seriously. Besides, Yining is still his daughter, so Xu Ji can only accept this result. This is a compromise of sorts. Although it was not Xu Ji's willingness.

Fortunately, the West Garden was not far from the palace, so soon Xu Ji arrived at the place where Liu Hong wanted him to go, the Health Palace, under the guidance of Xiaohuangmen. At this time, there was no one else in the health hall except Xu Ji, and Liu Hong was not here, so it seemed that he was waiting for himself again. Although Xu Ji was full of displeasure in this regard, he couldn't change it, and Liu Hong really didn't have anything to say about putting on his emperor's shelf, but he couldn't help but be a little dissatisfied with Xu Ji, the son-in-law who took on a lot for him.

Xu Ji waited for about a stick of incense before Liu Hong was late, and after entering the door, he greeted Xu Ji kindly, but Xu Ji was a little helpless. His Majesty the Emperor seemed to have just gotten out of bed, and he was yawning.

"Why did Your Majesty summon your ministers?" Because of the dissatisfaction in his heart, Xu Ji's words were a little hard, but Liu Hong didn't seem to wake up much, and replied calmly to Xu Ji's thorny words: "I don't have anything to do, it's just that Ning'er said that I want to see you, so I summoned you." As soon as he said this, Xu Ji's heart suddenly became angry, Liu Hong, as the king of a country, even summoned a person with a military position into the palace for no reason for his daughter. And the current situation is so unfavorable to Liu Hong, not only does he not think about how to deal with it, but he is also in the mood to take care of some trivial things about his daughter, which really disappoints Xu Ji.

But Xu Ji had nothing to say. Yining is her unmarried wife, and it is understandable for her to meet her, but Liu Hong's approach is really a bit absurd. So Xu Ji only responded lightly: "Thanks to the princess's love, it's just that the West Garden is busy with military affairs." I'm afraid I won't be able to stay long. ”

After Liu Hong heard this, he realized that his colt seemed to have complaints, so his face changed and said, "Why should Wen Lie be like this? I am just a laugher, and I summoned you here for the military parade. The general will also go there at that time, and Jian Shuo has been busy with your marriage recently, and I am afraid that he will not have time for a while. In the West Garden, you keep an eye on it, Wen Lie, you also know that General Lu Dao has a lot of complaints about the West Garden. Now that the West Garden is no longer the same, I am afraid that there will be some gossip. ”

Although Xu Ji didn't believe Liu Hong's so-called jokes, it was indeed a big deal for He Jin to see the military parade in the West Garden, and once something went wrong in the military parade in the West Garden, the consequences would probably be worse than what Liu Hong said. I'm afraid that it is a question of whether Xiyuan can continue to exist at that time, although Yuan Shao will stop it, but it may not be able to stop He Jin. And now that Xiyuan has his own control of the military power in Yuan Shao, he may not be able to stop He Jin.

Thinking of this, Xu Ji couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, since he came to Luoyang, troubles have come one after another, and one is more difficult to deal with, which really gives him a headache, and what is even more tricky is that these things are complicated, although they are all separate events, they are all related to life and death, Xu Ji only feels that he is a little too powerful, and he is still alive and well in such a situation.

Seeing that Xu Ji frowned and was silent, Liu Hong smiled and said with relief: "Wen Lie doesn't have to worry too much, no matter how bad the general is, he will only complain about one or two, Wen Lie doesn't have to be like this as a concubine." What's more, Zhang Rang and the others will not let the general be too wanton. Xu Ji was secretly shocked when he heard this, Liu Hong didn't seem to be as unbearable as he imagined, but it was really difficult to say what he meant by this, Xu Ji was still unsure of his intentions, so his answer was a little ambiguous: "Your Majesty Xie is concerned, but the minister is in the West Garden, and his identity is quite embarrassing, and I am afraid it will be difficult to take on a big responsibility." Liu Hong frowned immediately when he heard this, of course he could see that what Xu Ji said was not a lie, and Xu Ji's status in the West Garden was not much worse than what he said, but Liu Hong was a little puzzled, why Xu Ji was still in such a situation: "Oh? Wen Lie might as well speak bluntly. ”

Xu Ji took a long breath, but only said a simple name: "Yuan Shao." ”

Liu Hong's eyes flashed with a sudden look, how could he, as the emperor, not know what kind of momentum and appeal this gate valve of the fourth world and the third prince has? In fact, letting Yuan Shao enter the West Garden is also his compromise with the clan and the party, if Yuan Shao's ability is average, it is fine, and this person can also be called eloquent, and it is normal for Xu Ji to be unable to suppress it, after all, what Liu Hong values is that Xu Ji has no clan behind him and has the ability to tie him to his side, but there is no family support behind him, and there is no congenital disadvantage for an opponent like Yuan Shao. Although he has not personally seen it in the West Garden, he can know what this person's prestige looks like by virtue of the fact that Yuan Huai proposed that Yuan Shao join the West Garden court and no one refutes it.

And although Xu Ji has the honor and favor of the horse after this, he still can't change the difference between the two. Xu Ji just became more noble overnight, but Yuan Shao was the accumulation of many years of fame. And the influence of the Yuan clan is even greater than that of the emperor himself, of course Liu Hong is also bitter in his heart, the West Garden seems to have been infiltrated by the world before it has reached a scale, and there is still a Xu Ji in it who can barely maintain it. Thinking of this, Liu Hong couldn't help but feel a little sad, an emperor should be in such a situation as him, maybe he is really a sign of the country, but he is unwilling, how can the West Garden, which he has been planning for a long time, be handed over so easily? Liu Hong said that he couldn't accept such a result.

"Wen Lie, you are my son-in-law and the concubine of the Great Han. What about a little Yuan Benchu? Xiyuan is formed by my own efforts, how can he have the final say in the Yuan family? If you go back, be tougher, I don't want you to be Yuan Shao, but the Xiyuan Army must not let others take power! "Liu Hong is really angry, if it is a matter next to him, he will pretend not to bear it, but Xiyuan has taken the trouble to set it up, and now Yuan Shao is going to turn it into private ownership with his family background, where can he bear it? Although Xu Ji's words were unknown, Yuan Shao's thoughts did not need to be said, and his position in the army directly under the emperor was embarrassing. Liu Hong wanted to ask Yuan Shao in front of him what he wanted.

Xu Ji still replied without any expression when he heard this: "This is the wish of the minister, but the official position of Yuan's original family is above the minister, it is inevitably a little unreasonable, and now there are many people in the court who are the Yuan family." I am afraid that before I can complete the matter, I will be impeached and have to resign. "Xu Ji is much calmer than Liu Hong, this faint monarch only knows that his army is going to be appropriated for himself, but he never thought that Xu Ji's current situation may not be able to face Yuan Shao head-on.

When Liu Hong heard this, it was like being poured with a basin of cold water. Xu Ji's words are not good to hear, but he is telling the truth, but this also proves that his vision and ability as a cheap son-in-law are first-class. Even if he is not in the court, he can see the situation of the court very clearly. But how can the problem be solved? Liu Hong actually didn't dare to make too much action at this time, and the matter of Xiyuan had already touched the sensitive line of the world. If it weren't for the inability to stop it, it would have been impossible for the Xiyuan Army to be formed, and once Yuan Shao moved, he was afraid that it would arouse the anger of the clan, and the current Liu Hong couldn't afford to provoke these gate valve families.

Just sit back and watch the West Garden occupied by Yuan Shao but unwilling, Liu Hong couldn't help but secretly scold himself for being confused at this time, he shouldn't have let Yuan Shao enter the West Garden in the first place, and now the situation is difficult to clean up. But despite this, Liu Hong is still happy to harvest Xu Ji, Xu Ji does not have the flashiness and impatience of a teenager of his age, and even a little deep, and his eyes are vicious, and his ability is outstanding, which is almost perfect, the only thing lacking is experience and strength.

Despite this, Liu Hong had no way to bring these things to Xu Ji, and he even had to rely on Xu Ji to regain what originally belonged to him for him. Recently, some of Zhang Rang's actions have made him feel dangerous, although he once called Zhang Rang his father, but who knew that it was his own salary? Liu Hong also has some unspeakable depression in his heart, but as the king of a country, the height is unbearable, and some things can't be said by anyone, let alone take them lightly.

In fact, Liu Hong didn't know that eunuchs were just a disease of skin moss, and the accumulation of the Han Dynasty was not because of the eunuch dictatorship but because the clan was not satisfied with the status they had obtained, since Guangwu began to accumulate the power of the clan from generation to generation, the rise of new families, more and more families are no longer satisfied with what they get, so naturally they began to think about a higher position, the three princes and nine kings could not satisfy them, and the only thing left was the dragon chair that they sat on. But how could Liu Hong sit back and watch this kind of thing happen?

So he first relied on the eunuchs to balance the clan, and the clan was naturally unwilling to do so, so he raised a puppet He to come in to fight against the eunuchs, but more clans couldn't wait for this kind of trick of cutting flesh with a blunt knife, and even directly supported the yellow scarf to rebel, these Liu Hongquan all understood, but now the Han is hard to return, he can only support it, if he still has the strength to spare, of course he also wants to be able to show his ambition to be a praised Mingjun, but the reality is so ruthless.

Even Liu Hong did not hesitate to destroy his reputation to be the unscrupulous and unscrupulous king. Who knows the pain in his heart? I finally looked forward to such an opportunity, but before I could finish forming my new army, the clan was impatient. The grievances in Liu Hong's heart are beyond measure.

But so what, what can Liu Hong have other ideas than compromise? He let out a long sigh and said to Xu Ji tiredly, "Wen Lie." Speaking from the heart, are you sure to defeat Yuan Shao? Xu Ji looked up, only to feel that the radiant emperor in front of him was ten years old, he frowned and thought for a long time and replied: "Full of calculations, there is sixty percent certainty." When Liu Hong heard this, a trace of essence burst out in his eyes, and he said in a resolute tone: "Okay, then Wen Lie will let it go, as long as he can firmly control the Xiyuan Army, he will bear the consequences!" ”

Xu Ji looked puzzled, Liu Hong's reaction and attitude were not at all like a faint monarch, but a bit of the meaning of the lord of Zhongxing. But why? Xu Ji really couldn't figure it out, and is there any way for Dahan to save it now? Xu Ji can't see any possibility, the thieves everywhere are enough to make the rotten imperial court unable to deal with it, not to mention that the states and counties have long been independent, why is Liu Hong so obsessed with Xiyuan? But although Xu Ji was full of doubts, he didn't ask, there were some things that he shouldn't ask.

Liu Hong couldn't see this, but the West Garden was his only hope, and without the West Garden, he wouldn't have the slightest chance. With Xiyuan, he still has a glimmer of hope, although it seems to be just a life-saving straw, Liu Hong is still unwilling to let go.

"Yes." Xu Ji's answer was brief, and Liu Hong was not surprised. Although they didn't get along for a long time, Liu Hong could see that Xu Ji was talking about doing less and doing more, and he could also see Xu Ji's doubts and hopelessness. But he couldn't explain it. Although the only person Liu Hong can really trust now is Xu Ji, he can't explain it, and some lonely heights can only be borne by him, the emperor. He didn't forget that the man in front of him, who was still a teenager, was not only his courtier, but also his son-in-law. Maybe now he has to bear these things that should have been borne by himself, but Liu Hong is actually unwilling to do this. So some don't have to say what they have to carry as an excellent son-in-law, this is Liu Hong's obsession.

In the end, Xu Ji still didn't go to see Yining, he knew that this was not the time for children to be in love, the so-called gentle township was the hero's mound, Xu Ji was a self-aware person, he was not even a hero, and it was inevitable that he would be tied up for the love of his children, and the current situation could not tolerate him to have the slightest mistake. Liu Hong may have a lot of stories, but Xu Ji is not curious, the only thing that makes Xu Ji sad is that this father-in-law is not the so-called faint monarch of the people, Liu Hong's expression of faint sorrow and helplessness can not be faked, although Xu Ji has no intention of dying for Liu Hong, but defeating Yuan Shao to regain control of the Xiyuan Army is a matter of duty, Xu Ji has no reason to refuse, not to mention that Yuan Shao wants his own life, even if Liu Hong does not support himself Xu Ji is impossible to let Yuan Shao go.

Because the time spent in the palace was not short, it was about noon when he returned to the Xiyuan camp, and Xu Ji, who originally planned to deal with Yuan Shao, received a reply from Guo Jia.

Xu Ji laughed loudly when he saw these two words, and Dian Wei even thought that his father-in-law was crazy. And the reason why Xu Ji is so simple is very simple, Guo Jia, who is far away in Yu County, probably doesn't know what happened in Luoyang after Lu Dao's letter, but he expected that Xu Ji already had a way to deal with it in his heart, but he didn't dare to put it into reality, so Guo Jia's reply would be like these two words.

But at this time, even without Guo Jia's letter, Xu Ji would have acted decisively, Liu Hong's support was one of the reasons, and more importantly, Xu Ji didn't have to act like a headless fly after he had the information provided by the Hero Building.

With sufficient intelligence support, then targeted actions will become much more effective, and Yuan Shao never expected Xu Ji to get such a support, and he never imagined that he had already committed Liu Hong's taboo by touching Xiyuan, and the Xiyuan Army is now Liu Hong's confiner, Yuan Shao probably doesn't know what kind of trouble he will face. Maybe it's time for him to ask Zhang Miao and Xu Ji what kind of opponent he is.

Xu Ji didn't want to give Yuan Shao any chance, the only person in the West Garden who could really threaten Xu Ji except Yuan Shao was Cao Cao, but Cao Cao owed Xu Ji a favor to Cai Yong before, Cao Cao was already destined not to participate in it, and the game between the two sides was not as far as Xu Ji said. Yuan Shao's scruples also restricted his movements, but Xu Ji did not have so many taboos, and now Xu Ji, who has the support of Liu Hong, has even taken the faint initiative to some extent, and with the support of the hero building, Yuan Shao will never be more active than Xu Ji.

As for whether Shi A is sincere in helping him, Xu Ji never expects him to help him sincerely, as long as he compromises with himself, it is enough, and his master is the prince's swordsmanship teacher, Xu Ji's identity as a colt is enough for him to help him.

And Yuan Shao seemed to force Xu Ji to compromise, that was just a fool's dream! (To be continued......)
