Yours truly, Ouyang Feng

Chapter 39 39, Actually, my target is Yang Guifei
Until then.

Ouyang Lie, who was sitting blankly, raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead and said:
"It's really an assassin!"

After his health improved, he practiced martial arts diligently whenever he had free time.

However, his talent was not as good as his second brother, and was only about the same as Ma Yue and Dong Yun. He was also busy with worldly affairs and had little time to practice martial arts. As a result, his martial arts achievements were limited after a year. Facing the Hu Ji assassin, he couldn't even see the opponent's body movements, let alone block her attacks.

He looked at Ouyang Feng, who was dressed as a servant on the left, with lingering fear, and said gratefully:
"Second brother, it's a good thing you arrived in time and found the assassin. Otherwise, Mingyue and I would have been in danger of our lives when we camped at night. I owe you another life."

Ouyang Feng smiled slightly, "We are brothers, no need to be polite."

Then he looked at Hu Shang, who was trembling on his knees, and said calmly:

"Come here, drag this thief away and chop him up."

Immediately, two wolf riders entered the tent and dragged the Hu merchant away.

Another real servant in the tent went over and dragged Hu Ji's body out of the tent, removed the blood-stained carpet and replaced it with a new felt carpet.

After cleaning up, Ouyang Feng sat at the side seat and ate, drank and chatted with Ouyang Lie and Li Mingyue.

After talking about the capture of Gaochang City and the forced surrender of Xiao Bata, Ouyang Feng said:
"Once you enter Gaochang City, you can be crowned king. Of course, for the time being, you will be the same king as the King of Gaochang. You can actually only control Gaochang City and the territory of the former Gaochang royal family. When you take over the territory of Gaochang, you may have to kill some people and see some blood. As for other territories, you still have to follow the old rules and let each ethnic group govern themselves and collect tribute every year."

He took a sip of wine and said calmly:
"But my family is more powerful than the Gaochang royal family, so we have to collect more tributes from the various ethnic groups. With the output of Gaochang City and the royal territory, as well as the tributes paid by the various ethnic groups, we don't have so many royal nobles to support, and my family doesn't like to indulge in pleasure, so we can have more money and food, and train more elite cavalry. Then we will gradually advance with military force, and sooner or later we will return the ruling power to the royal court, and establish a real dynasty according to the Central Plains system."

Ouyang Lie hesitated for a moment and said:

"Second brother, you trained the soldiers, and it was you who led the troops to attack and conquer Gaochang City. I will be the king, shall I..."

"Brother, you know me well." Ouyang Feng said calmly, "I am impatient with worldly affairs. It's fine for me to train soldiers and lead troops, charge into battle, but it's not good for me to sit in the palace and govern the country with documents..."

He shook his head. “This is killing me.”

Ouyang Lie fell silent.

Since ancient times, fathers and sons have killed each other, and brothers have killed each other for the throne. His second brother, on the other hand, conquered the world but was unwilling to sit on the throne, willing to give it to his elder brother...

Thinking back to how Ouyang Feng cured his chronic illness with a miraculous medicine that he didn't know where it came from but must have been rare, and how he heard that there was an assassin and galloped on horseback all day and night to save his life despite being tired from the expedition, all these things made Ouyang Lie's eyes slightly warm and he almost burst into tears.

Just as his father commented, he has a rather soft personality, which is very different from his second brother who is resolute, decisive, domineering and ruthless, and more like their mother who died young.

Ouyang Lie lowered his head to hide the change in his eyes, then picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. However, he drank too quickly and choked and coughed repeatedly, which was a good opportunity to let some tears flow.

Li Mingyue gently stroked his back to calm him down, while complaining:

"You, your alcohol tolerance has only increased by 30 or 40 grams in the past year. Why are you drinking so quickly? No one is competing with you for it..."

"I feel happy."

Ouyang Lie openly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and said with a smile:

"Because I have the best brother in the world. Second brother, let me toast to you!"

After drinking a cup with Ouyang Feng, Ouyang Lie said:
"Second brother, you will be eighteen next spring. Can you consider getting married?"

Ouyang Feng shook his head, "No hurry. There are many scholars and officials in Zhao Song who married in their thirties. I am so young, there is really no need to rush to get married."

"Although the scholars of the Zhao Song Dynasty married late, most of them took concubines in their teens and twenties." Ouyang Lie said: "A few days before my father passed away, I heard him tell you to have more children. So even if you don't want to marry, you should take concubines."

"Father wants us brothers to have more children, not just me." Ouyang Feng looked up at his elder brother, "It is not just my job to have more children for the family." Ouyang Lie was speechless, and Li Mingyue said:
"Brother Feng, although I have no sisters, my family has quite a few beautiful cousins. Why not..."

Ouyang Feng shook his head, "Thank you for your kindness, sister-in-law, but I'm really not in a hurry."

Li Mingyue joked:

"Brother Feng, do you despise ordinary women and want to marry a fairy from heaven?"

Ouyang Feng thought for a moment and said:
"It doesn't have to be a fairy. If it's Yang Guifei, or some pretty woman whose martial arts skills are similar to mine, I'll still be attracted to her."

"..." Ouyang Lie and Li Mingyue looked at each other.

"Second brother, even if you want to shirk the marriage, you should have made up a decent excuse. Concubine Yang..." Ouyang Lie was weird and shook his head speechlessly, "Brother, I never thought that you would have such a whimsical idea."

"It's probably hard to find a woman with martial arts skills similar to yours anywhere in the world." Li Mingyue said, "If there weren't such a beautiful woman with extraordinary martial arts skills, would you still be alone for the rest of your life?"

"No." Ouyang Feng smiled and said leisurely: "Maybe one day, I will bring Yang Guifei or a beautiful girl with extraordinary martial arts skills to see you..."

Ouyang Lie and Li Mingyue looked at each other again, becoming more and more convinced that their second brother did not want to get married, so he made up such a fantastic and ridiculous excuse to shirk his responsibilities.

……

That night, a fantasy world appeared.

"Last night, I sneaked out of Taizhen Palace and took a walk around Taiye Pond. There were so many palace maids and eunuchs, but no one noticed me. My current lightness skills have enabled me to come and go without a trace, and I am elusive! And my leg skills are so good that I can break a hardwood stake as thick as a bowl with one kick. I feel that with my current skills, those warriors in the imperial guards who claim to be able to fight ten people at once are far from my opponents. Even if ten or a hundred people come at me together, I am afraid they cannot beat me..."

Yang Yuhuan walked in front with her hands behind her back, taking light and joyful steps, and talking happily.

Ouyang Feng followed behind her, looking at her back, a little absent-minded.

I have known her for a year.

Since the third time they met, she wore an extremely charming Hu Xuan dance costume, which teased Ouyang Feng a lot. After that, every time they met, she wore a similar style of dance costume.

It's the same today.

She only had a yellow silk corset embroidered with peonies on her chest, exposing her fragrant shoulders, snow-white arms, tender belly and cute navel.

She wore a red pleated skirt with a gold silk flower cage skirt on the outside. Although the red pleated skirt was not transparent, it had a slit on one side to the hips. Whenever she walked, jumped, or kicked her legs, her plump, round, white thighs with creamy skin would appear from time to time.

Even though he had seen her many times, every time he met her in the fantasy world and saw her charming demeanor, Ouyang Feng would still be amazed and his heart would beat fast.

However, he was distracted at this moment, not because he was intoxicated by Yang Yuhuan's boundless charm.

He was just thinking that Haikou had already boasted in front of his elder brother and sister-in-law, but when would he be able to actually meet Yang Yuhuan in real life and bring her back?

The "Tongtian Spirit Seed" grows really slowly. It has been four years since I met Lianxing, but there is no movement from the Tongtian Spirit Seed. How long do I have to wait before...

"Hey, sister is talking to you, why are you just standing there without saying a word?"

Yang Yuhuan turned around and said in a coquettish manner.
