"Third brother, do you want to make some bets? A game is decided, I won, you give me your treasured lady's picture; If you win, I'll buy you wine for a year! ”

Zhang Fei's eyes lit up, and he hesitated for a while, the lady picture is his treasure, but wine is also his favorite...... Ahhh ”

After a pillar of incense.

"Third brother, you lost, give the picture!"

"I'm not convinced! I want two wins in three games! ”

……

After half a column of incense.

"Third brother, you lost again, can you take it?"

"No, no, three wins in five games!"

……

After another half pillar of incense.

"Hahaha, third brother, you lost again! Figure? ”

"Four wins in seven games!"

……

After another half a pillar of incense, without waiting for Li Feng to speak, Zhang Fei rushed to say: "Five wins in nine games!" ”

Li Feng was silently accompanied.

……

"Six wins in eleven rounds!"

"Seven wins in thirteen rounds!"

"Eight wins in fifteen rounds!"

……

An hour later.

"Hahaha... Third brother, you're losing again! ”

After winning eight games in a row, only winning Zhang Fei one soldier each time, Li Feng's eyebrows were filled with an uncontrollable smile.

Zhang Fei looked at the bare chessboard, his black veteran who was forced into a corner by the red soldiers, and stared at Li Feng with some resentment.

"Uh... Third brother, I really don't know how to play chess, today is my first time playing chess..."

Li Feng took the red son back and looked at Zhang Fei, "Are you still here, third brother?" ”

"I'm not coming, I'm not coming, I'm giving it, I'm giving it to you!"

Zhang Fei waved his hand irritably, swept away the sunspots on the chessboard, took out a pile of pictures of ladies from his arms, slapped them into Li Feng's arms with a huff, and then opened his arms and pushed everyone out of the room, "Let's go, I'm going to sleep." ”

"Hahaha..."The brothers looked at each other, laughed and left.

More than ten days have passed in a blink of an eye.

Liu Bei gradually gained a firm foothold in Liaodong County, while training troops, while checking taxes and corrupt officials in various places, he sent Cui Lian to collect money and grain from the wealthy gentry to prepare for the spring of the next year.

Li Feng stayed in the Taishou Mansion of Xiangping City, and learned martial arts with Guan Zhang and Zhao Taishi every day to improve his own strength.

It's a pity that I don't know if the lower limit of his force value is too low, or the force value of his brothers is too high.

Zhang Fei also took this opportunity to ravage Li Feng a few times, and took several mouthfuls of anger that the lady picture was won.

So Li Feng and Zhang Fei played chess with more hidden means, every time they "won by luck", and ate Zhang Fei until there was only one veteran left.

In the winter, Zhang Fei was wearing a thin robe, and his forehead was covered with sweat.

Lost again!

Since coming to Liaodong, he, the chess king of Zhuoxian County, has not tasted the taste of winning chess.

There was only one bare veteran left on the chessboard.

And on the opposite side, Li Feng also had a red soldier, who was approaching his veteran step by step.

This familiar scene made Zhang Fei irritable. He couldn't figure out why the fourth brother Li Feng could leave a soldier every time, and why he was checkmate by a small soldier every time.

He was annoyed with the creep.

Zhang Fei slapped the last of the treasured pictures of ladies on the table, and sulked secretly with his neck.

It hurt him a lot to output this picture today.,That's his favorite picture.,There's no one.。

Lady drawings don't just want to draw, you need inspiration. Where does the inspiration come from? Of course, it's to go out on the street to see beautiful women.

Here's how the inspiration works. Zhang Fei first saw a woman who was as beautiful as a flower and had a distinct temperament, formed an image in his mind - that is, inspiration, and then outlined the charm of this woman in the way of removing the inferior and retaining the superior.

Although there are thousands of women in the Taishou Mansion, they are all maids and maids, who have been instilled with the idea of obeying orders since childhood, and they are pleasing to the eyes all day long, and they are cautious in doing things, and they are only submissive, without any style and charm, even if they look beautiful, they don't look good when they are painted.

Li Feng meticulously took back the chess pieces, put them into the wooden box, and was about to get the picture on the case, but was snatched by Guan Yu.

Guan Yu glanced at it, his big red face quickly turned into pork liver red, and he put the picture back with a "snap", quickly stroked his long beard, and turned his back.

Zhao Yun picked up the picture of the lady, and after reading it, he silently put it back, and looked up at the roof casually.

Tai Shici leaned his head closer to take a look, and suddenly said: "Oh~ Isn't this the main mother who has never passed through the door... Wow Yide, you actually have a covetous heart for the master's mother... I really didn't expect you to be this kind of person! ”

Li Feng looked at it, it was true, the lady on the picture had the charm of Zhen Jiang between her eyebrows and eyes, and the clouds and temples were just gone, her eyebrows and eyes were full of spring, and she was wearing very little clothes, so she couldn't help blurting out:

"The people on the side are like the moon, and the frost and snow are condensed on the wrists. Lightness is not self-contained, and there is more than a lot of escape. ”

Goo dong goo dong~

Suddenly there was a strange sound in the room.

Zhang Fei's old face darkened, and he hurriedly turned around and argued: "Ziyi, don't talk nonsense, this is not a sister-in-law..."

Liu Bei happened to push the door in at this time, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the picture on the table, he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "A few virtuous brothers, how is the military training today?" ”

There was silence in the room, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.

Because the Zhen family has decided to move most of the industry to Liaodong after the year, Liu Bei came to Liaodong this time to take up the post of Taishou, and brought the old housekeeper of the Zhen family who was in charge of the front station, as well as Zhen Jiang and her second sister Zhen Tuo.

Zhang Fei must have seen the demeanor of the prospective sister-in-law before he drew this picture of a soul-saunting lady.

Zhang Fei stood up with his head down, like a three-hundred-pound kid who had done something wrong, and said angrily: "Big brother, I don't mean that, I just paint casually..."

Liu Bei waved his hand, "Yide, brothers are like siblings, women are like clothes, don't say that you don't have such thoughts, even if you have, it's okay." If Wing De really had this idea......"

"Big brother, you will give up your sister-in-law to the third brother?" Li Feng hurriedly asked.

Hearing this, Zhang Fei quickly raised his head, his eyes flashing brightly.

Guan Yu turned around, Zhao Yun hurriedly retracted his gaze, Tai Shici was also stunned, and his younger brothers looked at Liu Bei in unison.

Zhen Jiang is the kind of ideal wife in everyone's mind, with a score of 94 points for appearance and figure, 94 points for temperament, 94 points for family background, and the rest of the scores are said in the form of 666.

Such a woman, if she can let it out... That big brother (lord) is really a perfect person!

Liu Bei looked around at the brothers and said lightly: "If Yide really has this idea, after a few years, the eldest brother will go to the head of the Zhen family to propose marriage, and Zhen Jiang's second... The third sister promised the third brother. ”

Whew-

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

After such an episode, the awkward atmosphere in the room improved.

This picture of a lady naturally belongs to Liu Bei

Liu Bei saw that Li Feng's face didn't seem to be very good, so he pointed to the picture of the lady and said to him: "Fourth brother, don't worry, she still has many younger sisters. ”

Li Feng nodded, the eldest brother was really fair, but I don't know how the five daughters of the Zhen family will divide the six brothers when the time comes?

……

"Snowman, snowman! Sister, you snowman doesn't look like an envoy! ”

Zhen Jiang and Zhen Tuo also had a few maids, and there were snowmen piled up outside Xiangping City with great interest.

Liu Bei stood aside with his hands behind his back, looking at the beautiful scenery of heaven and earth, and the snow was vast.

Li Feng sat on a big rock with his chin in his hands, watching them play.

Today is the last day of the first year of Zhongping (184), and after today, it will be the next year.

In the past few days, it suddenly snowed, and it was impossible to train the army, so Liu Bei took the Zhen sisters to build a snowman outside the city. There are many people playing in the snow outside the city, and in addition to the Han people, there are also many boys and girls from Xianbei, Wuhuan, Fuyu, and Goguryeo.

Xiangping is a big city, and there are a lot of outsiders.

According to official statistics, there are 800,000 Han Chinese in Liaodong County, and in fact there are at least hundreds of thousands of permanent residents.

This is still the data of the previous two years, and now the resident population will only increase.

Li Feng looked at Liu Bei's side face and stopped talking.

Although Liu Bei said that he was 28 years old, in fact, Liu Bei was only 23 years old at this time, and he became a Taishou at such a young age, managing half of Youzhou, and it would be false to say that he was not high-spirited.

Li Feng could clearly feel that Liu Bei's personality had begun to gradually move closer to the male master. Historically, Liu Bei was a benevolent lord at the beginning, and he was not obsessed with the population of the territory, and adhered to the idea that there was something to have, and there was no force for it, so he let Xuzhou live in Xinye, and watched Jingzhou fall into the hands of Cao Cao but did not do anything to rob it.

It was not until after the age of forty-four that Liu Bei began to transform from a benevolent lord to a male lord, and after being invited to Yizhou, he took the initiative to grab Liu Zhang's territory.

Looking at Liu Bei's changes, Li Feng didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing. In private, the brothers' relationship is still as close as ever; But on the bright side, Liu Bei's majesty is getting thicker and heavier, so that people don't dare to joke.

It seems that the brothers slept in the same bed, which often happened before, but it has not happened once since coming to Liaodong.

A sense of distance invisible to the naked eye quietly lies between the brothers.

Liu Bei turned around, sat down beside Li Feng, glanced at him and said, "Fourth brother, you are really kind-hearted, you can treat these barbarians equally, promise them to live in the city, and give them the same treatment as the Han people." ”

"They weren't outsiders in the first place, although they were barbaric and less polite, but if they were more educated, they would know how to read and be polite, and they would be the same as the Han people."

"Wouldn't it be more convenient to kill or expel Liaodong?" Liu Bei's tone was ruthless: "If it is not my race, its heart will be different!" ”

Li Feng shook his head, "Big brother, you are all old yellow calendars, and the popular concept now is that fifty or sixty nationalities are one family, and they are all laughing haha." ”

"Oh, when was this a popular notion? Why hasn't Big Brother heard of it? ”

Li Feng did not answer this question, but said: "Violence is indeed very effective, and it can temporarily solve the problem of foreign infestation that we are currently facing, but violence cannot solve all problems. More often than not, violence only leads to more violence, and running a border county is like running a country. It is necessary to cooperate with benevolent government with violence in order to achieve long-term peace and stability. ”

"Don't blindly kill those disobedient foreigners, after conquering them by force, keep their useful bodies to contribute to society and contribute to the development of Liaodong; And for those obedient foreigners, we should welcome them with open and warm arms and treat them as our own. Only in this way can the problem be solved once and for all.

"If we choose to kill one foreigner in the vicinity, although it can solve the temporary problem, but this problem will not be solved because of our killing, and for a long time to come, there will always be a continuous migration of foreigners from farther away. So that we will be caught in a never-ending war.

"If you choose to assimilate with the same religion, although it will be very troublesome at the beginning, there will be such and such contradictions, but with the passage of time, passed on from generation to generation, with the old leading the new, the atmosphere of systematic acceptance of the system will gradually be formed, and then it will be very easy to deal with foreign races.

"Isn't it better to have a world where people of all ethnic groups live together in harmony and play instead of fighting each other, as it is now?"

Liu Bei looked at Li Feng in a daze, he didn't expect this fourth brother to say such philosophical words, and his eyes looked at him with a huge shock.

"I didn't expect that the fourth brother, you are so young, you can have such an opinion, or you just don't lead the army to go on the expedition, just stay in Xiangping to help the eldest brother take care of government affairs!"

Hearing this, Li Feng's face changed.

He didn't want to be like Zhuge Liang, entangled in endless government affairs, and he died of exhaustion at a young age.

But before he could say anything, the system prompt came as scheduled.

[It's the end of December, and you have a nearby search that is about to expire, do you want to search?] 】

"Search!" Li Feng thought silently.

[Three Jijin Daekhyun found in the southeast direction...]

[Two Zhicheng sages were found in the southeast direction...]
