Chahe was interested in learning martial arts by Hua Xiangrong, but he repeatedly received no response from her, so he turned to learn martial arts from his aunt Li Jingwen.
Now Li Jingwen is very depressed, and she dare not reveal her concerns about Hua Xiangrong to anyone, not even Ouyang Ke.
If the younger brother is still here, it is best to discuss it with him. Now I feel like I don't even have anyone close to me, so I transfer this emotion to my niece Chahe. After all, they have the same surname.
As for his nephew Li Chengzhen, because he is a man, he is not as well-behaved as Chahe, so he is one level behind. Li Jingwen asked him to help Ouyang Ke.
After all, he was once a prince, and Li An'an was already in high regard when he was in power. Since Ouyang Feng didn't care, Li Jingwen was not stingy and passed the "Nine Yin Manual" to Chahe.
The communication between Ouyang Feng and Hua Xiangrong is that Ouyang Feng is talking and Hua Xiangrong is listening. Ouyang Feng would occasionally fight with Hua Xiangrong. The murderous aura on Hua Xiangrong's sword did not diminish at all, and the sword was as fast as lightning.
It was extremely difficult for Ouyang Feng to resist, but with his profound skills, he was able to
The "Six Meridians Divine Sword" narrowly beats half a move every time. In this way, Hua Xiangrong stayed in the palace for ten years. Hua Xiangrong is still so cold, but she will not deliberately alienate Ouyang Feng.
Ouyang Feng had no physical desire for Hua Xiangrong, but he was greatly satisfied spiritually. Ouyang Feng never thought that when he was middle-aged and over fifty, he would have such a pure spiritual love.
Ouyang Feng felt that he was noble and his morality had improved. During these ten years, Ouyang Feng turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside the window and was indifferent to everything. Li Jingwen took care of the family, while Ouyang Ke acted as the sole agent outside the house.
Ouyang Ke changed from an ignorant boy to the controller of a vast empire. At the beginning, Ouyang Feng occasionally gave some advice, but gradually he stopped caring about state affairs.
His daughter Ouyang Yao married Yelu Jinghong, a nobleman of the Liao Kingdom. The Yelu family wanted to keep their wealth, and the Ouyang family wanted to further stabilize Liao.
Of course, Ouyang Feng would not sell his daughter. Yelu Jinghong was indeed a talented man, and he was the husband chosen by his daughter himself.
The old father Ouyang Chi missed his eldest son, became depressed and became ill, and passed away. Ouyang Feng felt extremely guilty.
The relationship between Ouyang Feng and Hua Xiangrong, which Li Jingwen was extremely worried about, had not changed significantly in ten years.
As Ouyang Ke gradually became the most powerful person in the country, she became obviously relieved.
She could feel Hua Xiangrong's disgust for her, so she stopped getting close to Hua Xiangrong. Ouyang Ke is nearly thirty years old and has two concubines but no real wife.
Her son's marriage has become Li Jingwen's top priority. When Li Jingwen mentioned the matter to Ouyang Feng again, Ouyang Feng also felt that he had neglected Ouyang Ke.
After all, I am also Ouyang Ke's parent. I am not urging him to get married, but I should give him more care.
In recent years, all major national affairs have been placed on this young man who is only in his twenties, and the country is in a troubled time, so it is difficult for Ouyang to overcome it.
After a quick calculation, we have entered the main plot of "The Condor Shooting", and Guo Jing and Huang Rong have grown up. Ouyang Feng thought for a while and decided to take Ouyang Ke to visit Peach Blossom Island.
In recent years, I have only cared about flowers and beauty. Ouyang Feng's idea puzzled Li Jingwen. Even if Chahe couldn't marry Ouyang Ke because of blood ties, he couldn't marry a reckless daughter.
Li Jingwen also wanted to find someone with strength for Ouyang Ke who could be Ouyang Ke's strong support at critical moments.
Although Huang Yaoshi was well-known, he was only a polished commander, and even if he was the leader of a faction, he was not worthy of Ouyang Ke, the prince regent of the empire.
Li Jingwen had seen Huang Yaoshi take action, and knew that in terms of martial arts, the two families were well matched, but Li Jingwen had never regarded martial arts as a top priority.
She was born into a royal family and had never been able to understand Ouyang Feng's mentality of always thinking of himself as a gangster even though he had cleared his name and came to shore.
But she didn't dare to refute Ouyang Feng. She knew that Ouyang Feng must have thought deeply about this opinion.
Ouyang Feng did not tell Ouyang Keming the purpose of his trip. He only mentioned going to the Central Plains and did not mention going to Peach Blossom Island.
Ouyang Ke was surprised that Ouyang Feng suddenly wanted to go to the Central Plains. Although Ouyang Feng could not be said to be housebound in the past ten years, he was still quite a homebody.
Ouyang Ke was a little dissatisfied with his infatuation with Hua Xiangrong, but it was just a little dissatisfied. Ouyang Feng delegated power to him, which also left him with no time to care about such matters at home.
Ouyang Feng suddenly changed, and Ouyang Ke couldn't figure out why, but he actually didn't want to go. He didn't regard himself as a Jianghu person at all, and he had no interest in Jianghu road at all. If he was going to Song Dynasty to meet their emperor, it would be almost the same.
Ouyang Feng has rarely been seen in recent years. He is free to go wherever he goes, but Ouyang Ke is not aware that this is not the case.
He forgets to be busy with political affairs every day, and the entire power center is surrounding him. A lot of preparations must be made for his sudden departure.
Ouyang Feng suddenly realized that I am so unimportant now. However, Ouyang Feng was full of relief, this was exactly what he wanted.
If Ouyang Ke is willing to take on this important task, he can liberate himself. Everyone chooses a different life. I didn't choose it for Ouyang Ke, and I can't say which way of life is better. It just depends on what you want.
Ouyang Ke just wanted to find an excuse to avoid going to the Central Plains with Ouyang Feng. There were too many things for him to deal with.
Ouyang Feng said to Ouyang Ke: "Ke'er, if I can't do anything without you, then you will die of exhaustion. Catch the big ones and let the small ones go. If they leave you, they won't be able to do anything. You have to consider Someone has been replaced." Ouyang Ke remained silent and did not answer.
Ouyang Feng smiled and said: "Ke'er, if I didn't delegate power to you, would you be as capable as you are today?" Ouyang Ke didn't know how to evaluate Ouyang Feng's delegation of power. Is it brilliant?
Still lazy? Ouyang Feng said: "Such a big country depends on you alone. No matter how capable you are, you can't manage it well. Zhuge Liang of the Shu Han Dynasty worked hard and did everything personally, but he did not restore the Han Dynasty. The overlord of Western Chu was amazingly talented and beautiful. Wasn't he defeated by the Han Dynasty? I was forced to commit suicide." Ouyang Ke remained silent. Not only was he concerned about diligent work, he also worried about holding power in his own hands and worrying about others usurping power.
In this regard, he is far less ambitious than Ouyang Feng. Ouyang Feng saw what Ouyang Ke was thinking and said
"Ke'er, if you live like this all your life, what will happen no matter how powerful you are? Why not take this opportunity to see how capable the people under your command are. If there are really dishonest people, let them come out. Uncle is not old yet, can he still do it? I'll help you for a while." Ouyang Ke heard the free and easy tone in Ouyang Feng's words, and he felt proud in his heart. He was young and had a family background, so could he still be afraid of some monsters?
Ouyang Ke said: "Okay, uncle. I'll make some arrangements, and we'll set off right now." Li Jingwen wanted to go and see it in person to keep a close eye on her son, but Ouyang Feng thought twice and decided to take Ouyang Ke alone. go.
It was too weird for these three people to appear together. Although he didn't care about other people's opinions, he always had to think about Ouyang Ke.
Secondly, I just like Huang Rong now, and I don’t know what Huang Rong thinks. It would be too formal if the whole family goes.
He didn't want to rob a common girl by force. If Huang Rong didn't want to marry, he would never force her. Huang Rong's greatest value is her wholeheartedness.
What's more, the family also needs a backbone so that they won't be blinded when something happens. Although Ouyang Ke said he was free and easy, he still felt anxious in his heart as soon as he left the royal city. He couldn't bear Ouyang Feng's unhurriedness and urged Ouyang Feng to hurry up.
Ouyang Feng also knew that the sudden relaxation made Ouyang Ke uncomfortable, so he did not force him to slow down and speed up.
Ouyang Feng did not visit Peach Blossom Island directly. It was not easy to visit the Central Plains by himself. Maritime trade was extremely developed in the Song Dynasty. Quanzhou was an important starting point of the Maritime Silk Road and was known as
"The largest port in the East". It has been nearly 20 years since Ouyang Feng founded the Giant Whale Gang, and its head office is located in Quanzhou. Affected by the policy, official trade was not for profit, but mainly for the purpose of strengthening friendly exchanges. Especially when the Song Dynasty and Xia Dynasty were at odds, the environment of the Silk Road became extremely harsh, which also promoted the development of the Maritime Silk Road.
Ouyang Feng has shipbuilding skills and navigation skills, so there is no reason to leave them at home to get moldy. It would be a pity not to use them.
The leader of the Giant Whale Gang is Tie Shou, Huo Gong Tutuo's assistant and disciple. Not far from him is the chief helmsman of the Haisha Sect. The chief helmsman is Tie Shou's younger brother Tiemian, who is also a disciple of Huo Gong Tutuo.
Huo Gong Tutuo is already over seventy years old. In his early years, he failed to practice martial arts properly and was seriously injured. Now he is suffering from injuries and is no longer as brave as he once was.
But Ouyang Feng, his two disciples, valued them very much. Huo Gong Tutuo only focused on practicing martial arts on his own and ignored the tasks assigned to him by Ouyang Feng. If it weren't for these two disciples who helped him, Ouyang Feng would have kicked him out.
Huo Gong Tutuo only took in three disciples in his life, and the other one was Du Chufeng's son Du Xin.
In the palace coup more than ten years ago, Du Chufeng, Ouyang Feng's general, died of serious injuries. Ouyang Feng himself refused to accept disciples, so he asked Huo Gong Tutuo to take Du Chufeng's son into the gate.
Now Huo Gong Tutuo is in the Western Region, with only Du Xin around him. The Haisha Sect was originally a gang that sold illegal salt, but Ouyang Feng had no intention of evading taxes.
In the Song Dynasty, the salt industry allowed both officials and merchants to sell salt. Coastal prefectures and counties were originally government sales areas, and the Haisha sect was also willing to pay the salt tax.
However, Yanguan felt distressed when he saw the large amount of taxes paid by the Haisha faction. Instead, he asked the Haisha faction to go into smuggling and share the huge profits with him.
The iron-faced young man did not expect that the government would force him to smuggle, and would not deal with it. It was Ouyang Feng's policy to pay taxes to Song Ting, so how could he dare to change it to smuggling?
After reporting to Ouyang Feng, Ouyang Feng was speechless. In the last life, I sold private salt because I wanted to fight against the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasty. In this life, I want to be a socially responsible businessman, but the government wants to poach me.
