Does he only bring 10,000 people?” Sincere cannot believe own ear. “10000人？他只带来10000人？”多敦不敢相信自己的耳朵。 In the tent has several partners who he trusts, Mo Chu with ten military officers, scouts to lower the head saying: „Yes, only has 10,000 people, the Dragon King messenger quickly.” 帐篷里有他信任的几名伙伴,还有墨出与十来名将领,斥候低头回道:“是,只有10000人,龙王信使很快就会到。” Sincere did not speak, looks at Mo Chu, what response wants to have a look at the old fox to make. 多敦不说话,看着墨出,想看看老滑头会做出什么样的反应。 „, Waited for the messenger to come to say again.” Mo Chu is not willing to express the opinion, on the contrary, he shows a drowsy facial expression, probably could not be competent own responsibility. “呃,还是等信使来了再说吧。”墨出不肯发表意见,相反,他露出一副昏昏欲睡的神情,好像已经胜任不了自己的职责。 Sincere sends for inviting Shangguan Ru. 多敦派人去请上官如。 This woman, this strange woman, makes sincere hate to the marrow of the bones is actually infatuated with, he pursues the New Moon Hall disciple, to release old handsome/graceful Mo Chu, is not because in fearing, he has fallen in love with her, when Shangguan Ru drinks up the first bowl of liquor before him, he already heart movement. 这个女人,这个奇怪的女人,让多敦恨之入骨却又迷恋不已,他驱逐晓月堂弟子、释放旧帅墨出,不全是因为于惧怕,他爱上了她,当上官如在他面前喝干第一碗酒时,他就已经心动不已。 As the prairie man, is the son who Old King Han most likes, sincere not love hidden heart, Shangguan Ru hit the mark that night of his acupuncture point, whole body only then mouth active time, he has revealed oneself true feelings, „, when my princess, later you were the Northern Court Yan, after I did not marry, clan female, so long as you.” 身为草原男子,也是老汗王最喜欢的儿子,多敦不会将爱意隐藏心中,上官如点中他穴道的那天晚上,全身只有嘴巴能动的时候,他就表露了自己的真情,“当我的王妃吧,以后你就是北庭大阏氏,我不娶后族女子,只要你。” Shangguan Ru not like common female shy, instead laughs, „sorry, I, when the princess and Yan are not interested, does not want to mislead you, therefore replied you straightforwardly: Will be never possible.” 上官如不像一般女子那样羞怯,反而哈哈大笑,“对不起,我对当王妃和大阏氏不感兴趣,更不想误导你,所以直白回答你吧:永远不可能。” The sincere acupuncture point untied, he protected oneself New Moon Hall disciple to say to that Yi Rong/disguise: „Look, the matter so is simple, Shangguan Instructor is fiercer than you, moreover I have fallen in love with her. Therefore goes back to tell your governing masters, our forming an alliance had finished, I do not like your styles, hides, depends upon assassinates the enemy dark. The sneak attack occasionally succeeds, does not mean that it has succeeded, so long as New Moon Hall has the Golden Roc Castle half fame, strictly will be guarded, you will be unable to take a single step forward.” 多敦的穴道被解开,他对那名易容保护自己的晓月堂弟子说:“瞧,事情就这么简单,上官教头比你厉害,而且我爱上了她。所以回去告诉你的御众师,咱们的结盟结束了,我不喜欢你们的风格,躲躲藏藏,依靠黑暗刺杀敌人。偷袭偶尔成功,并不意味着它会一直成功,晓月堂只要有金鹏堡一半名气,就会受到严格防范,你们将会寸步难行。” Shangguan Ru knows that these words said listens to her, the result has not thought that quick fulfilled on oneself. 上官如知道这番话是说给她听的,结果没想到很快就在自己身上应验了。 The fame means to attach great importance, attaches great importance to meaning the numerous barriers, Shangguan Ru thought that the duty has been accomplished, wants to leave the exceedingly high pass/test, the result discovery really „difficult”. 名气意味着重视,重视意味着重重障碍,上官如觉得任务已经完成,想要离开通天关,结果发现真的“寸步难行”。 „The New Moon Hall people are very crazy.” The sincere judgment is actually good, „, therefore you now are very dangerous, in Gong in private, I cannot make you be murdered, but I cannot branch out the military strength to escort you, stays here, when your 1000 enlisted women arrive, considered while convenient my suggestion, please believe that that is not my temporary joke.” “晓月堂的人都很疯狂。”多敦的判断倒是不错,“所以你现在很危险,于公于私,我都不能让你遇害,可我也分不出兵力护送你,留在这儿吧,等你的1000名女兵到来,顺便考虑我的建议,请你相信,那不是我的一时戏言。” What the Land of Fragrance 1000 enlisted women walk is thousand rides the pass/test, they must escort the woman of quality to repatriate, then detours Xiaoyao Lake to come the exceedingly high pass/test, few months cannot arrive. 香积之国1000名女兵走的是千骑关,她们得护送贵妇归国,然后绕行逍遥海来通天关,没有几个月是到不了的。 Shangguan Ru believes oneself can run away secretly, but Xu Xiaoyi also suggested her to stay behind, „the Western Region situation was not steady, Instructor kept one, at least and other Dragon King came back.” 上官如相信自己能偷偷逃走,但许小益也建议她留下,“西域局势不稳,教头还是留一阵吧,起码等龙王回来。” Person Dragon King that Shangguan Ru does not want to see, but she has stayed behind, the reason is very complex, one of them is the Xu Xiaoyi acquired information, „He Nu came in the exceedingly high pass/test, side with Han Xuan, but also some people see an expensive family/home young lady, if right, should be Shangguan Shaomin.” 上官如不想见的人正是龙王,但她还是留下了,原因很复杂,其中之一是许小益收集到的情报,“荷女在通天关现身了,身边跟着韩萱,还有人见到一位贵家小姐,如果没错的话,应该就是上官少敏。” But the clue just appeared has interrupted, Shangguan Ru had still not found niece's whereabouts. 可线索刚一出现就中断了,上官如一直没找到侄女的下落。 She heard that Dragon King news that commands the army soon to arrive, therefore sees on invitation sincere. 她已经听说龙王率军即将到达的消息,因此应邀去见多敦。 „You had said Dragon King at least can have 80,000 people, the news that but I hear only has 10,000 people.” Sincere interrogated seriously, he likes this woman, can profess love straightforwardly, but desirably will never flatter, will therefore not display weakly. “你说过龙王至少会带回来80000人,可我听到的消息是只有10000人。”多敦严肃地质问,他喜欢这个女人,可以直白示爱,但永远不会刻意讨好,更不会因此表现得软弱。 „That was you said that what I said was Dragon King has the qualifications and Your Highness shoulder to shoulder.” Shangguan Ru to that talk remembers that is very clear, „Your Highness has the doubts, directly asked Dragon King , he definitely will give you quickly a satisfactory explanation.” “那是你说的,我说的是龙王有资格与殿下并肩。”上官如对那次谈话记得还很清楚,“殿下有疑惑,直接问龙王吧,他很快就到,肯定会给你一个满意的解释。” „I believe Dragon King, first is because believes you.” Sincere adjusts the last character specially. “我相信龙王,首先是因为相信你。”多敦特别调最后一个字。 Shangguan Ru shakes the head, „you are the Old King Han son, said that this words will be laughed, believes you, will have no need to hope to pin on others.” 上官如摇摇头,“你是老汗王的儿子,说这种话会被人笑话,相信你自己吧,用不着将希望寄托在别人身上。” „Haha.” Sincere laughs, all most receives the partner who trusts in his side, does not need to be worried about the rumor to divulge to an outsider, „I am not really clear, the female like you, how can not like me? We are inborn one pair, only then the vast prairie can make you gallop heartily.” “哈哈。”多敦大笑,在他身边全是最受信任的伙伴,不用担心流言外传,“我真不明白,像你这样的女子,怎么会不喜欢我？咱们是天生一对,也只有辽阔的草原能让你尽情驰骋。” „Possibly is because my horse runs too quickly, the average person cannot follow.” “可能是因为我的马跑得太快,一般人跟不上吧。” Sincere laughs once more, turns head to ask the partners, „can't we overtake the flame colt really the horses?” 多敦再次大笑,扭头问伙伴们,“咱们真没有能追上火焰驹的马匹了吗？” „By the big of horses prairie, will discover to be able sooner or later with shenma that the flame colt keeps pace with.” A partner replied. “以草原之大马匹之多,早晚会找出能与火焰驹并驾齐驱的神马。”一名伙伴回答道。 At this moment, the Dragon King messenger arrived, sincere sends for inviting commands Mo Chu. 就在这时,龙王的信使到了,多敦派人请来统帅墨出。 The flatter wise close to saw that Shangguan Ru was startled obviously, nods to her, to sincere said with Mo Chu: „After Dragon King commands the army, said arrives, the station was little as if country.” 阿哲巴见到上官如显然吃了一惊,冲她点点头,向多敦与墨出说道:“龙王率军后曰到达,驻地是小宛国。” „little as if country?” Mo Chu is very accidental/surprised, „that is not...... Golden Roc Castle Young Master Shangguan Yun domain?” “小宛国？”墨出很意外,“那不是……金鹏堡少主上官云的地盘吗？” „Yes, Shangguan Yun is willing to provide capital city, Dragon King agrees.” “是,上官云愿意提供都城,龙王同意了。” This is an unexpected news, sincere a few words were not many said. 这又是一条意想不到的消息,多敦却一句话也不多说。 Officially met finished quickly, the flatter wise close to drew back, Mo Chu and Shangguan Ru said goodbye, sincere returned to the personal tent, summoned the Dragon King messenger again. 正式会见很快结束,阿哲巴退下,墨出、上官如告辞,多敦回到私人帐篷,再次召见龙王信使。 Although the flatter wise close to keeps the imperial court, but he with leaving is gracefully same, is one of the partners sincere most trusting. 阿哲巴虽然留在龙庭,但他跟离曼一样,是多敦最信任的伙伴之一。 The flatter wise close to kneels down to the prince, „meets Your Highness.” 阿哲巴向王子下跪,“叩见殿下。” Sincere one entrains to love, has beaten in his chest front ruthlessly, „young fellow, several months does not see, with me on polite, heard that you in the dragon court big show skill, kill many enemies, became the hero looked on as an outsider?” 多敦一把拽起爱将,在他胸前狠狠捶了一下,“好小子,才几个月不见,就跟我客气上了,听说你在龙庭大展身手,射杀不少敌人,是不是成了英雄就见外了？” The flatter wise close to grinned to smile, this was the prince who he was familiar with, has not changed, other people also came to hug and compete with him, intimate. 阿哲巴咧嘴笑了,这是他所熟悉的王子,一点没变,其他人也都过来跟他拥抱、较劲,亲密无间。 This is a relational close small group, sincere has not dispatched to draw back any partner, falls on the cot at will, „said that what person is Dragon King?” 这是一个关系紧密的小团体,多敦没有遣退任何一名伙伴,随意地倒在榻上,“说说吧,龙王是个什么样的人？” „Was very difficult to say.” The flatter wise close to knows that the prince will ask this point, he has pondered for a long time, does not have the means to draw the simple conclusion very much, „he is very intelligent, is very decisive, will win over the will of the people, the knife skill excels, will frequently make the accidental/surprised decision, actually can succeed.” “很难说。”阿哲巴知道王子会问到这一点,他已经思考很久,却没办法得出简单的结论,“他很聪明,也很果断,会拉拢人心,刀法高强,常常会做出令人意外的决定,却总能成功。” „Un, this is his merit, I think that he isn't a complete human?” “嗯,这是他的优点,我想他不是完人吧？” „It is not, Dragon King is oversuspicious, with Your Highness not , he although is good at winning over the will of the people, but completely will not trust to any person, will not be more confidential, is always hiding the truth from anything, when you understand finally the time, will think oneself are very stupid, this feeling is not quite comfortable.” “不是,龙王非常多疑,跟殿下不一样,他虽然擅长拉拢人心,但是对任何一个人都不会完全信任,更不会推心置腹,总是瞒着点什么,等你最后明白过来的时候,会觉得自己很蠢,这种感觉不太舒服。” Sincere raised head to think a meeting, „this kind of person, how will obtain nearly waits on giving loyalty to of army?” 多敦仰头想了一会,“这样一个人,怎么会取得近侍军的效忠？” „Dragon King excelling at causes the method, his procedures, the average person has thought will not do.” “龙王擅使手段,他那些做法,一般人就算想到了也不会做。” „Hehe, plays tricks, I have heard these hearsay, but I stand on the side of Dragon King, Northern Court and Central Plains founding monarchy can this move, and always enjoys. Do I know? Sorry, the brothers, I have read several books secretly.” “呵呵,装神弄鬼,我听说过那些传闻,不过我站在龙王一边,北庭和中原的开国君主都会这一招,而且乐此不疲。我是怎么知道的？抱歉,兄弟们,我偷偷看过几本书。” Several people including flatter wise close to have smiled, in Northern Court, the aristocrats of reading is the different kind. 包括阿哲巴在内的几个人都笑了,在北庭,看书的贵族都是异类。 „How many cavalries does Dragon King get so far as? I want the real number.” Sincere restraining smiling face. “龙王到底弄到多少骑兵？我要实数。”多敦收敛笑容。 „Nearly waits on the army 93,000 people, various Wang Jun dui 62,000 people, total 155,000 people, this is the most accurate digit.” “近侍军93000人,诸王军队62000人,总数155000人,这是最准确的数字。” „But he only brings 10,000 people.” “可他只带来10000人。” „Prince commands the army to set out to imperial court, Dragon King must leave behind to do to contend the large unit.” “罗罗王子率军向龙庭进发,龙王要将大部队留下以做抗衡。” „What prince is?” A partner angrily said, „his blood relationship is very suspicious, does not match to command the Northern Court cavalry.” “罗罗算什么王子？”一名伙伴气冲冲地说,“他连血统都很可疑,根本不配统领北庭骑兵。” Sincere has not joined the discussion, he has own view to Eastern, but does not want to be too early and partners shares. 多敦没有加入讨论,对东方的罗罗他有自己的看法,但是不想太早与伙伴们分享。 The King must always conceal something, the way of but concealing is different, in sincere looks like, Dragon King obviously is not this field of endeavor expert. 王者总是要隐瞒一些事情,只是隐瞒的方式不同,在多敦看来,龙王显然不是此道高手。 „Little Yan Zhi also together came with Dragon King, she makes me give a Your Highness letter personally.” “小阏氏也跟龙王一块来了,她让我亲手交给殿下一封信。” Sincere received the letter, side places conveniently, has not disassembled, „Little Yan Zhi and to graceful favors Dragon King, even made me a little envy, the flatter wise close to, what was your view? Should I form an alliance with Dragon King wholeheartedly?” 多敦接过信,随手放在身边,没有拆开,“小阏氏和离曼非常看好龙王,甚至让我有点嫉妒了,阿哲巴,你的看法是什么？我应该全心全意与龙王结盟吗？” The flatter wise close to deeply inspires, this is also he pondered that long time issue, „Dragon King will never give up the control, but he keeps the promise, therefore my suggestion is, if has confidence a time to remove Dragon King, kills him, if not, for the time being lowers the head to him, in any event do not compete with Dragon King, that will only invite trouble.” 阿哲巴深吸一口气,这也是他思考良久的问题,“龙王永远不会放弃控制权,但他信守诺言,所以我的建议是,如果有把握一次除掉龙王,就杀死他,如果没有,就暂且向他低头,无论如何不要与龙王竞争,那只会惹祸上身。” „Is very good, I will never handle the matter that has not grasped.” Sincere coldly said that in heart has decided. “很好,我从来不会做没有把握的事情。”多敦冷冷地说,心中已经打定主意。 ( to be continued ) （未完待续）
