Overnight, heavy snow fluttered down, like pear white, covering up the brutal killing between people.

At dawn, the eyes are already wide, and the outside is like a glass world, covered in silver.

Nevertheless, the number of pedestrians on the road increased, and there were many happy faces on their faces.

Since Xu Ji came to Chang'an, the center of ancient China's economic and political culture has ushered in a rare tranquility. Although the war in Hanzhong and the war in Xiliang are still in a stalemate, they are as insignificant as sparks.

Especially after Xun Yu came to Chang'an, the life of the people in Chang'an has obviously improved, looking at the steady stream of food from Yanzhou and Jizhou, people's hearts seem to have taken a reassuring pill.

In the last month. Chang'an City is even more lively, and many merchants continue to come from all over the world. Jizhou Zhen's, Xuzhou Mi's, Hedong Wei's, Youzhou Zhang Shiping, Su Shuang...... The rich merchants of the Han Dynasty gathered in Chang'an, and as for the other laughing merchants, there were countless carps crossing the river.

Goods and food from Yanzhou and elsewhere flooded Chang'an's markets, and with the intervention of Xu Ji and Xun Yu, these goods were of high quality and low price, making them affordable for ordinary people.

As for the dignitaries, they have always loved Yanzhou specialties, of course, they bought them unceremoniously, even in the homes of Xu Ji's enemies, Wang Zifu and others, and they didn't dare to say that there was no Yanzhou commodity, right? In this way, Chang'an's economy is extremely stimulated every day, and the spirit of this ancient city seems to be awakened again, so although it is winter, Chang'an still gives people a trace of warmth.

Just on the eve of the New Year. Xu Jina's magnificent Sikong Mansion has been completed, and some finishing work is not completed. Otherwise, they have already moved into a new home by this time.

Xun Yu's mansion is also under construction. Xu Jidi's mansion is resplendent and the style is quite novel. It was completely built by Yanzhou craftsmen. When it comes to the design of drawings. It is even more enviable, it is the handiwork of the world's famous architect Yu Tuo. The various whimsical ideas and the choice of building materials in the interior of the province came from Ma Jun, a great inventor in Yanzhou.

However, no one said that Xu Ji was poor and luxurious. Because all the expenses of this mansion came from Xu Ji's own pocket, the money allocated to him by Liu Xie, the money sent by Mrs. Zhang in the name of the Zhen family, the craftsmen sent by Mi Zhu, etc., Xu Ji returned them all and politely declined. Therefore, this mansion has completely become the embodiment of Xu Ji's personal strength, which makes his enemies dissatisfied and helpless, after all, Xu Ji is not showing political strength at this time, but his own family wealth, although he knows that Xu Ji is demonstrating. But the partiality did not leave a trace of the handle.

Liu Xie didn't have any opinions. Maybe he is looking forward to Xu Ji's increasing popularity, so he can give him an opportunity.

In short, everyone was attracted by Xu Ji's lively set, but they didn't notice that Xu Ji was taking the opportunity of transferring people from Yanzhou to Chang'an to build a mansion for himself and quietly build his team in Chang'an. Among the people who came with Yanzhou craftsmen, there were many people who studied or studied at Yanzhou Academy.

Among them are Chen Qun, Zhang Hong, Gao Tanglong, Huan Fan and others; As for the students, many of them are gifted and intelligent, or have more perseverance and hard work than ordinary people, and they are all sent to Chang'an City for training. It won't take long for these people to be the new force in Xu Ji's rapidly expanding team. These characters are all characters who were personally transferred from Yanzhou soon after Xun Yu came to Chang'an.

Chen Qun and Zhang Miao, who were introduced by Xun Yu after joining Xu Ji, were strong enough in internal affairs, and they were also little-known figures, with the assistance of the two of them, Xun Yu's pressure was reduced a lot. Xun Yu's friend Gao Tang is very stern. He is a man of today's honour and honour who knows the law. In the judicial circles of Yanzhou, his prestige has surpassed that of many generals under Xu Ji, and this time he transferred this figure to Chang'an. Xun Yu just hoped that Gao Tanglong would formulate new laws and regulations according to the new policies of Yanzhou and the actual situation of Chang'an, so as to make a precursor for Xu Ji's future events.

Huan Fan is a think-tank-level figure discovered by Xun Yu in the past six months. This talent is not under Xu Shu, and he is meticulous. The heart is as careful as a hair, and the most rare thing is to be extremely quick-witted. Whenever there is a big event, I can always think of a solution to the problem at the first moment. With this person by Xu Ji's side, it can make up for Jia Xu's regret that he can't blatantly give advice to Xu Ji.

With the arrival of these four people, Xu Ji was pleasantly surprised, of course he knew the benefits and disadvantages of these four people, especially that Huan Fan, but it was a headache for the Sima clan in history. If Cao Shuang had listened to Huan Fan's words at that time, he was afraid that the Sima clan had already been exterminated by Cao Shuang.

As for the child named Zhuge Jin, Xu Ji was quite surprised, this guy should be Zhuge Liang's brother without accident, his time studying in Yanzhou Academy seems to be not short, he has shown amazing talent in business, and he has become the most proficient person in business in Yanzhou at a young age, Mi Zhu and Zhen Yan are very appreciative of him. With Zhuge Jin in Chang'an, he will definitely calculate into the bones of those enemies.

However, Xu Ji is quite concerned about the thoughts of the Zhuge clan behind Zhuge Jin, since Zhuge Jin has already shown his edge under his command, then Zhuge Liang must choose another force, right? But as far as Zhuge Jin's ability is concerned, Xu Ji still can't help but praise Xun Yu's skillful use of people. At the same time, he was also muttering to himself in his heart, should he go back to Yanzhou to see how many outstanding people he has recruited in the academy in the past few years.

Looking at these people in front of him who are still unknown now, but will be famous in the annals of history in the future, the excitement in Xu Ji's heart is indescribable, it won't be long before these people will turn Chang'an upside down.

When the war in Liaodong calmed down a little, he transferred Deng Ai to Chang'an, and by that time, Chang'an's lineup would be too gorgeous, right? Of course, there are other characters who want to be much worse than these people.

However, the arrival of Xu Ji's helpers did not attract the attention of all the forces in Chang'an City, and what people are interested in about Xu Ji now is how many generals, dignitaries, and nobles who come to visit Xu Ji every day.

Suddenly, Xu Ji has become a center of influence, although on the surface the relationship between Xu Ji and Liu Xie is still very good. On the eve of the New Year's Land. Envoys from all over the country came to Chang'an one after another to meet Liu Xie. So Chang'an City became more lively.

At this time, the busiest person should probably be Xu Jidi's idiot's nemesis, Dahonglu Zhouhuan, who was busy arranging accommodation for envoys from all over the world. I don't even have a fixed time to eat every day. And he ran to Xu Ji to cry poverty in an extremely shameless manner, saying that the emperor did not give him enough money. Let him be stretched thin when it comes to arranging food and living for the princes. asked Xu Ji to sponsor some money privately. made Xu Ji cry and laugh.

Of course, Xu Ji has to take this money, in terms of face. I am on the same side as Liu Xie this time, so I can't let those messengers laugh.

Moreover, he built a new mansion by himself, but let those envoys eat and live very poorly, which is really not good to say. However, Xu Ji would not let Zhou Huan go so lightly, he asked Zhou Huan to put a note on it when he provided food and living utensils for the envoys, which stated: Xu Ji respectfully.

Zhou Huan saw that his goal was achieved, and he knew that he had made Xu Ji suffer a small loss, so he agreed to Xu Ji's request without thinking about it. Happily went.

Of course, Xu Ji is also very happy to have this opportunity to advertise. Why not? Others don't quite understand Xu Ji's deep meaning, but Huan Fan and Zhuge Jin deeply admired Xu Ji because of this matter.

However, the person who is really nervous is Xu Ji, he knows the truth that the person who counts people always counts, and when he deals with others, he secretly conspires and tricks to do everything, and now he has turned from dark to light, of course, he should pay special attention to this kind of thing.

In order to deal with the situation that Chang'an was a little chaotic because of its prosperity and liveliness, Xu Ji withdrew all the five thousand shadows under his command. spying on intelligence everywhere, Xu Ji felt that he had become Zhu Yuanyuan, and the people under his hands had become Jinyiwei. Just in case, Xu Ji transferred Xu Wei back to Chang'an. Let Xu Wei assist Yu Ban in taking charge of the city defense.

Moreover, this time when the candidates entered Beijing, Xu Ji strictly ordered him to bring the army, of course, in order to avoid the story of He Jin.

Although it is highly likely that the candidates will say one thing and do another. However, all the major passes in the Chang'an region are under Xu Ji's control, and they are guarded by male soldiers. Of course, I'm not afraid of what the hell they will do. In this way, Xu Ji was a little relieved.

After some tossing. Xu Ji didn't find anything wrong, but Xu Ji knew that he definitely didn't dare to take it lightly, because if the non-enemy really wanted to have a plan, it would only be possible to start it after entering Chang'an. Thinking about Cao Cao in history, Xu Ji knew that he could not be careless, and he didn't know how many people in this Chang'an City wanted to plot their position and life.

It's a pity that it is impossible for him to memorize the "edict of clothes" or the list of ministers who have rebelled against Cao Cao later in history, otherwise he only needs to monitor the cadres who are loyal to Liu Xie and oppose Cao Cao first, and he can also save a lot of effort. This is probably the best explanation for "the book is hated less when it is used", right? Xu Ji can only laugh at himself like this.

On the day of the New Year, all the envoys from all over the country have arrived, so the morning of the day was very lively, and the envoys from all over the country went to the palace to meet Liu Xie with Xu Ji and other civil and military ministers under the leadership of Zhou Huan.

Liu Xie has been living under the control of others for a long time, only these few months have been chic and comfortable, although Xu Ji has given him a headache, but compared to his previous life, it is really heaven and earth, the two are different. The high-spirited Liu Xie talked and laughed in the main hall, greeted the envoys from all over the world, and showed strong communication skills, which made people feel like a spring breeze.

To be honest, Liu Xie's ability in this area is really much stronger than Emperor Han Ling.

Xu Ji and Xun Yu knew that on this day, Liu Xie was the real protagonist, so they were surprisingly silent, and just took the opportunity to observe the envoys from all over the world, because soon after, Xu Jijiu would try to start a comprehensive negotiation with these, and the envoys sent by Liu Bei were a little shocking to Xu Ji, one was an "old friend", the unforgettable Yizhou celebrity Zhang Song, and the other was Qin Mi, an outstanding son of the Yizhou Qin family, this kid was famous for his eloquence, and Xu Ji was deeply impressed by it. The debate with Sun Quan's envoy Zhang Wen in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is really exciting.

If Zhang Song is a memory genius, then Qin Mi is a reasoning genius, these two people are really a perfect match together. Compared with the ugly Zhang Song, Qin Zhen can be regarded as a beautiful man, especially the pair of eyes that are extremely fascinating. Although he didn't talk much in the court. But there is a lot of imagination and writing in just a few words. gives people an innate good feeling, and feels that he is free and easy to take for granted. It's not as annoying and arrogant as Zhang Song.

Coming with the two was Liu Wu's fellow countryman, Jian Yong, who was good at internal affairs.

It seems that Liu Wu is not willing to be taken advantage of, and he has this opportunity to send his henchmen out to experience it. The people who escorted the three were Yang Huai and Gao Pei, famous generals from Yizhou.

Compared with Qin Mi's weak beauty. Yang Huai has another heroic temperament, and it is the scar on a handsome face, not only does not look ugly, but it looks even more handsome, coupled with a tall and handsome appearance, this Yang Huai is really the ideal dream lover of a woman in the boudoir.

Compared with Yang Huai, Gao Pei looked much more ordinary, but his iron-gray face was uncomfortable to look at. The two of them were by no means friendly when they looked at Xu Ji. However, Xu Ji was too lazy to take these two embroidered pillows to heart. He was thinking that this envoy lineup must be Pang Tong's handiwork.

It does seem to be flawless, but I don't know what it will be like to talk to myself about business.

Relative to Liu Bei's lineup. The envoy sent by Zhang Lu made Xu Ji feel much more at ease.

The person who came was Yang Song, a super idiot in the Three Kingdoms era. This person used money to buy nine out of ten, looking at Yang Song, Xu Ji felt as if he had taken Hanzhong.

The messenger sent by Sun Ce was Kuai Yue.

Xu Ji looked at Kuai Yue with a smile on his face, and then thought about how he was Liu Biao's henchman not long ago, and he felt a shudder.

The person who came with Kuai Yue was a man named Liao Li. The name is very familiar, but Xu Ji just can't remember who this gentleman is? Look at the man nodding and smiling at himself. Xu Ji only smiled in return, but he didn't dare to despise him.

After all, this person was sent by Zhou Yu, so it must be extraordinary.

The figure sent by Cao Cao was probably the most powerful of these envoys.

It's actually Cheng Yu! It seems that Cao Cao is a little unrelieved that Cheng Yu is here in Chang'an, and it is Xu Chu and Cao Hong who are the guards for Cheng Yu!

In history, these two people have saved Cao Cao's life many times.

There are two other people who accompanied Cheng Yu, one is full of favors and the other is Hua Xin.

They're all heavyweights. Especially this Hua Xin, who is no stranger to Xu Ji. Guan Ning, who is now a guest in Yanzhou, has a lot of connections with this person.

One is the "dragon head" and the other is the "dragon tail". It seems that the envoys sent by Cao Cao are also very targeted. However, Guan Ning's governance talent is really no less than Xun Yu, and when it comes to Xu Ji's "Five Virtues", he has his own unique understanding, and Xu Ji is thinking about how to make him stay and assist him.

But at the moment, Xu Ji is very interested in Cao Hong. This kid fights recklessly. There is definitely a way to do business, and it should be a pleasure to talk about business with him. Unexpectedly, Liu Yan's son Liu He also ran to Chang'an. I came to see Liu Xie in person.

Liu Xie was overjoyed and immediately said that he wanted Liu He to be an official in Chang'an.

Although Xu Ji didn't take Liu He to heart, he felt strange. How did this Liu He come to Chang'an, you must know that Youzhou is now his own territory. It is really strange that Liu He came to Youzhou unknowingly. Think again about Liu He's special relationship with ethnic minorities. Xu Ji was even more uneasy, and decided to investigate it properly when he went back. The envoys sent by Li Dao, Guo Yan and Niu Fu were of course Yang Feng, who had a good reputation in the imperial court.

When it comes to independent specialty, we have to count Ma Teng/

Liu He probably came to Chang'an because he was desperate in Youzhou, but Ma Teng was different, and the candidates of the party who held the military power actually came to Chang'an in person, which can be said to be extremely courageous.

However, Xu Ji had to admit that he really had nothing to do with him. In addition, Wenhou Lu Bu also sent his subordinate general Song Xian as an envoy to Chang'an to worship Liu Xie.

Of course, Zhang Ji, the new assassin of Yuzhou, also had to pretend and send someone to do something perfunctory.

As for Liu Xuan, it was the strategist Zhenrong who was dressed in strange costumes. This kid is not a good guy and is famous in history. On the surface, he is dressed as a monk, but his heart is extremely vicious, and he must be extremely careful when doing business with this kind of person. However, if this person can be used to provoke the relationship between Cao Cao and Liu Xuan, it would be a very ideal thing.

Looking at a large number of people kneeling down in the court, each with a ghost child, Xu Ji sighed in his heart, it seems that he has been busy for this period of time.

After the grand early dynasty, Liu Xie retired from the dynasty. However, he called Liu He away, saying that he was reminiscing about the past, but in fact, there must be another inside story. I don't know if Shi Ah can get their conversation for himself. The envoys had not dispersed, but were laughing and laughing with their new and old acquaintances in groups inside and outside the court.

Of course, these envoys will stay for a while, nominally to report to Liu Xie on the situation in various places, but in fact to observe the shape of the entire Chang'an City.

After the early dynasty dispersed, Xu Ji announced to the ministers who had not yet retreated that he was going to move into a new home, and also said that he would feast the guests in the mansion tomorrow night. Regardless of whether it was sincere or not, everyone stepped forward to congratulate and said that they would go to participate tomorrow night.

Thinking about the crowds in his house tomorrow night, Xu Ji became excited, turned his head to look at Xun Yu, this wise man is also bright-eyed, obviously this best friend is also looking forward to it in his heart.

As a result, a war for the world quietly began. (To be continued......)
