Xiao Fengchai has the woman of opinionextremely, butshecandistinguish clearly the situation, knows when thisspoke, whenthishonestonlooking.萧凤钗是个极有主见的女人,但她能分清场合,知道什么时候该自己说话,什么时候该老老实实旁观。For examplenow, Meng Mingshujustlooked likechildhas made, buthewas talkingwithanotherman, hereasilynotreceptacle, butsatinone sidepeacefully, occasionallyhintedby the look, mosttimelowered the headto drinkgradually the coolbittertea, depending on the soundinvestigationstrangeDragon Kingenvoy.
比如现在,孟明恕刚刚像小孩似的闹了一场,可他正在跟另一个男人交谈,她轻易不会插口,只是安安静静地坐在一边,偶尔以眼神示意,大多数时间都低头喝着渐凉的苦茶,凭声音探查陌生的龙王使者。SinceXiao Fengchaihas recognized the Dragon Kingguard, Meng Mingshuto the envoysuspicion, hehas not saton another chair of guest seat, is away from the tablewith the envoy, saiddesolately: „Dragon Kingsendsyouto discussbusiness, good, but the turmoil, the businessis not goodto doat present, hopes that Dragon Kingalsoleavesfeels embarrassedourMeng Family.”
既然萧凤钗认出了龙王的护卫,孟明恕对使者也就没有怀疑,他坐在客位的另一张椅子上,与使者隔着桌子,冷淡地说:“龙王派你来谈生意,好啊,不过眼下局势混乱,生意不好做,希望龙王也别太为难我们孟家。”Gu Shenweistrikes the tabletopwith the fingergently, whenMeng Mingshushows the obviousloathingfacial expressionsaid: „Dragon Kingwill not feel embarrassedMeng Family, will also bring the enormousadvantagetoMeng Family.”顾慎为用手指轻轻敲打桌面,等孟明恕露出明显的厌恶神情时才说:“龙王不会为难孟家,还会给孟家带来极大的好处。”„Yousaid.”Meng Mingshuby the monotonousknockingwas compelledconfusedly, almostto forgetto thinkanythingat heart.
“那你说说吧。”孟明恕被单调的敲击声逼得心烦意乱,几乎忘了心里在想什么。
The servants in entirebuilding the anesthetics, have restedjustsoundly, the bigsoundwill not awaken.
整座楼里的下人都中了迷药,睡得正香,再大的声音也不会惊醒。„Dragon Kingwantsto borrow a moneyfromMeng Family.”
“龙王想从孟家借点钱。”„How many? The presentinterestis not low.”
“多少?现在的利息可不低。”„Meng Familyallmayuse the silver coins.”
“孟家所有可动用银两。”„What?”Meng Mingshucannotbelieve that simplyownear, looked atXiao Fengchai, looked at a Dragon Kingenvoy, „youknow the silver coins that Meng Familycanusehow manyare?”
“什么?”孟明恕简直不敢相信自己的耳朵,看了一眼萧凤钗,又看了一眼龙王使者,“你知道孟家能动用的银两是多少吗?”„Many.”In the Gu Shenweihearthas an approximatedigit, buthethinksnot to need saying that „naturally, Dragon Kingalldoes not borrow, Meng Familycankeep a guaranteeto saycommonly used.”
“很多。”顾慎为心中有一个大致的数字,但他觉得没必要说出来,“当然,龙王不是全借走,孟家可以留一点保证曰常用度。”„Haha.” The Meng Mingshuangerinsteadsmilesextremely, „phoenixornamental hairpin, did youhear? Isthisperson of rodomontading, Imisunderstood, Dragon Kingpreparesto despoilMeng Familyprobably.”
“哈哈。”孟明恕怒极反笑,“凤钗,你听到了吗?是这人大言不惭,还是我听错了,龙王好像准备把孟家劫掠一空呢。”„Perhapsyouhave not misunderstood, makinghimsay.”Xiao Fengchaiis calmer, althoughsheis notMeng Familyone, butthathugeindustryafter allwill fall into the hand of Meng Mingshu, therefore the partwill beher.
“恐怕你没有听错,让他说完。”萧凤钗更冷静一些,虽然她不是孟家的一员,但那份庞大的产业终归会落入孟明恕之手,因此有一部分将会属于她。„When does Dragon Kingplanto render back the money, paysseveralto divide the benefit?”Meng Mingshu asked that was very at heart clearthisbusinessnot possible, even ifdid not have the jealousy feelingtoDragon King, will not agree.
“龙王打算什么时候还钱,付几分利?”孟明恕问道,心里很清楚这笔生意毫无可能,就算自己对龙王没有妒意,也不会同意。„After warendedrenders back the money, does not have the interest, butMeng Familywill obtain the protection of Dragon King , to continue to do businessinWestern Region.”
“战争结束之后还钱,没有利息,不过孟家会得到龙王的保护,在西域继续经商。”„These?”Meng Mingshucontrolledfilled with furydiligently, facesuppressesis red.
“就这些?”孟明恕努力控制满腔怒火,脸憋得都红了。„Almostthese, toMeng Family, thisis a verycost-effectivebusiness.”
“差不多就这些,对孟家来说,这是一笔非常划算的生意。”„Cost-effective? YouandDragon Kingknowreally‚cost-effective’meaning? Letmetellyou, tumbles outhere, can never advanceinmyline of sightrange, Ido not informtoGolden Roc Castle, thiscalled‚cost-effective’, understood?”
“划算?你和龙王真知道‘划算’的意思吗?让我告诉你,滚出这里,永远不许在我的视线范围内出线,我不向金鹏堡告密,这才叫‘划算’,明白了吗?”Gu Shenweistopsrapping the tabletop, has referred totowardXiao Fengchai, „do youbelievethiswoman?”顾慎为停止敲击桌面,朝萧凤钗指了一下,“你相信这个女人吗?”„Yourwhatmeaning?” The Meng Mingshucomplexionchanges, just about tocalls the person, remembers is in itself the one person alonevisits, accompanieswith the guardsnotin the nearby.
“你什么意思?”孟明恕脸色一变,刚要叫人,想起自己是孤身到访,随从与护卫都不在附近。„Imeant,whatwordscanbe in front ofherto say?”
“我的意思是说,什么话都能当着她的面说吗?”Xiao Fengchaisets out, Meng Mingshuhintsherto sit down, „Icangiveher the life, wantsto sayanything, althoughsaid that the one whowastes the argumentisyou.”萧凤钗起身,孟明恕示意她坐下,“我能把命都交给她,想说什么尽管说吧,浪费口舌的是你。”Gu Shenweito the Xiao Fengchaislight nod, wassorryfor the words, thenchangedMeng Mingshu, „reason thatthisbusinesswas cost-effectivetoMeng Family, wasbecauseMeng Familywas in imminent danger, the wealthmustfall intoother peopleshortly the hand, throughDragon King, can actually preserve the majority.”顾慎为向萧凤钗微微点头,为刚才的话表示歉意,然后转向孟明恕,“这笔生意对孟家之所以划算,是因为孟家岌岌可危,财富眼看就要落入他人之手,通过龙王,却能保住大部分。”Meng Mingshuis silent, did not acknowledge the silence of fact, silence that butwas speechless.孟明恕沉默,不是承认事实的沉默,而是无话可说的沉默。Gu Shenweicontinues saying: „Your fatherquicka halfyear of notmain house gate?”顾慎为继续说道:“令尊快半年没出家门一步了吧?”„My fatheroccasionallydyes the cold, inhomerecreationbody, did not go outis very normal.”
“家父偶染风寒,一直在家休养身体,不出门很正常。”„Mengthreeyoung master and Mengfouryoung mastersgo outto handle the business, there aretwomonthsnot to have the news?”
“孟三公子、孟四公子外出打理生意,也有两个月没音信了吧?”„Turmoil of war, the correspondencelosesis more normal.”Meng Mingshudoes not clarify the opposite partyactually to suggestanything.
“兵荒马乱的,书信遗失更正常。”孟明恕搞不清对方到底想暗示什么。„Mengtwoyoung mastersonemonth ago justhad changed the guard.”
“孟二公子一个月前刚刚换了护卫。”„Heh, whatyoutoareknow, what do youwantto say? Where is the threat of Meng Familyat? The guardismy family'sold person, is notcasualchoiceBladesman.”
“嘿,你到是什么都知道,可你想说什么?孟家的威胁在哪呢?护卫是我家的老人,可不是随便挑选的刀客。”Gu Shenweidoes not have the direct reaction, butsaidaccording toalreadysomementalities,„the guard is whatShun, served for 11yearsinMeng Family, isdowry that your wifebrought.”顾慎为没有直接回答,而是按照既有思路说下去,“护卫叫何顺,在孟家服务11年,是你妻子带来的陪嫁。”Meng Mingshusneers, will open the mouth, Xiao Fengchaiinsertedone, „sisteris the Golden Roc Castleperson.”孟明恕冷笑,正要开口,萧凤钗插了一句,“二嫂是金鹏堡的人吧。”Xiao Fengchaisuch ascalls the Meng Mingshuwife, healreadybecame accustomed, „is, how? whatShunis notKiller(s), martial artsis also ordinary, electshimisbecauseexperienced, entersMeng Familynot to make a mistakefor more than 10 years.”萧凤钗如是称呼孟明恕的妻子,他早已习以为常,“是,怎么了?何顺不是杀手,武功也一般,选他是因为老成持重,进孟家十多年来从来没出过错。”Meng Mingshulooks at the envoy, the stopmoment, „Iunderstand that yourmeaning, youwantto sayShangguan Familythreatens, Supreme Kingwantsto kill off the Meng Familyman, robs the entire fortune, is?”孟明恕看着使者,停顿片刻,“我明白你的意思了,你想说上官家就是威胁,独步王想杀光孟家男子,抢走全部财产,是不是?”„Un, almost.”
“嗯,差不多。”„Iknow that Dragon Kingis a veryintelligentperson, sometimesalsointelligentexcessive, troublesyouto go backto tellhim, thankshim the caretoMeng Family, buthe , to discuss the business, shouldput forward a reasonableplan, butdoes not compile the shockingstory.”
“我知道龙王是个很聪明的人,有时候还会聪明过头,麻烦你回去告诉他,谢谢他对孟家的关心,可他若想谈生意,最好提一个合理的方案,而不是编造耸人听闻的故事。”Gu Shenweishakes the head, „Dragon Kingis closing up, Ido not have the meansto convey a message, hehad saidtwoyoung masterspossiblydo not believemywords, heonly has a request.”顾慎为摇摇头,“龙王在闭关,我没办法传话,他说过二公子可能不会相信我的话,他只有一个要求。”
The messengerssuchquicklyadmitted defeat, Meng Mingshu was a little instead disappointed, „said that whatrequested?”
使者这么快就服软,孟明恕反而有点失望,“说吧,什么要求?”„Had saidmewordstransmittoyour father, makinghimmake the decision.”
“将我说过的话传达给令尊,让他做出决定。”
The Meng Mingshucomplexionsomewhatblushes, „my fatherdid not see the personrecently, moreoverhedoes not likeDragon King, will only rejectcompared withmecompletely.”孟明恕脸色又有些发红,“家父最近不怎么见人,而且他不喜欢龙王,只会比我拒绝得更彻底。”„Has not related, ifeven/includingyour fatheralsorejects, thisbusiness, butDragon Kingrequestsyou to the wordspass.”
“没有关系,如果连令尊也拒绝,这笔生意就算了,但龙王要求你务必把话传到。”„YouandDragon Kingdo not havequalificationsto ordertome.”Meng Mingshuclenches teeth saying that hisenduring patientlysoonto the end.
“你和龙王都没资格对我下命令。”孟明恕咬牙说道,他的忍耐快要到头了。„Thisis not the order, thisisas the allymustdutycompletely, do not forget, wasDragon Kingmakesyouavoid the lossinXiaoyao Lake, wasDragon Kingmakes you Meng Familysuccessor.”
“这不是命令,这是作为盟友必须尽的义务,你不要忘了,在逍遥海是龙王让你避免了损失,也是龙王让你成为孟家的继承人。”Meng Mingshupounds the table, the last few words of opposite partymadehimangryespecially, Dragon KinghelpedhimassassinateBig Brother, thiswas the past events that heneverwantsto mention, „were youthreateningme?”孟明恕拍案而起,对方的最后一句话尤其令他恼怒,龙王帮他暗杀了大哥,这是他永远不想提及的往事,“你在威胁我?”„Ifyouwork asfriendDragon King, thisis only a reminder, ifyouwork as the enemyDragon King, thisthreatens.”
“如果你把龙王当朋友,这只是一句提醒,如果你把龙王当敌人,这就是威胁。”Meng Mingshuregrettedownis spur-of-the-moment, moneynotlikemartial arts, it not longonmaster, the protection that itprovidesis a cover of movement, occasionallywill present the separation, the Meng Mingshuprotective capnotin the side, was fallenbyhimonelsewhere, when thisletshimfacingtwoBladesmanfeels urgentlyis incapable.孟明恕后悔自己的一时冲动,金钱不像武功,它不长在主人身上,它提供的保护是一个移动的罩子,偶尔会出现分离,孟明恕的保护罩不在身边,被他自己落在别处了,这让他面对两名刀客时倍感无力。„Asked the envoyto excuse me, ImustspeakwordstoSecond Brotheralone.”Xiao Fengchaisets outto say.
“请使者见谅,我要跟二哥单独说句话。”萧凤钗起身说道。Gu Shenweinods, indicatednot to care.顾慎为点头,表示不在意。Atcertainimportant matters, dependency of Meng MingshuonXiao Fengchaiare more, thereforeenters the bedroomwithhertogether, discussedquietly.
在某些大事上,孟明恕对萧凤钗的依赖更多,于是跟她一块走进卧室,悄声商议。Gu Shenweiwaitssilently, Nie Zenglistens attentively to the surroundingallsoundsvigilantly, whatspreadsfrom the bedroomis onlyunclearwhispering, headmires the calmness of Dragon King, thought that Dragon Kinghas the newschannelsurely, will knowthese manyto the Meng Familymatter.顾慎为默默地坐等,聂增警惕地倾听周围的一切声音,从卧室里传出的只是含糊不清的低语,他佩服龙王的镇定,心想龙王必定另有消息渠道,才会对孟家的事情知道得这么多。
A Meng Mingshupersonwalks, the soundbecomespolitely, „good, Iwill transmityourwordstomy father, day after tomorrowtwo, wealsoheremeet with.”孟明恕一个人走出来,声音变得客气许多,“好吧,我会向家父传达你的话,后天二更,咱们还在这里会面。”„Is very good.”Gu Shenweisets out, „Ibelieve that day after tomorrow, amongus the trustwill be more, said goodbye.”
“很好。”顾慎为起身,“我相信到了后天,咱们之间的信任会更多一些,告辞。”„Hopeso, does not deliver.”
“希望如此,不送。”TwoBladesmango downstairs, quite a whilehas not broadcast the sound that opens the doorto close, Meng Mingshuleans against a railingto overlook, confirmedcompletely emptydownstairs.
两名刀客下楼,半天也没传来开门关门的声音,孟明恕凭栏俯视,确认楼下空空如也。Xiao Fengchaiarrives athimbehind, „theywalked.”萧凤钗走到他身后,“他们走了。”Meng Mingshuturns aroundswiftly, stillloweredsound, „youconfirmed that isDragon Kingoneself?”孟明恕倏然转身,仍然压低声音,“你确认那是龙王本人?”„Will not be wrong.”
“绝不会错。”
The Meng Mingshuvisionbecomessuspected,Xiao Fengchaihereneverlacks the guest, his pointdoes not care, but is unable to get over an emotiontoDragon King, „youcansee the flawunexpectedly.”孟明恕的目光变得猜疑,萧凤钗这里从来不缺客人,他一点也不在意,可就是对龙王无法释怀,“你竟然能看出破绽。”Xiao Fengchaiknows that thismanhas been jealous, coldlysaid: „Fool, Dragon Kingis oversuspicious you are notdoes not know,hepossiblysuch importantmatterwill entrusttoothers? ThisisDragon King, did not needto think, ifyouwanted the evidence, went toGolden Roc Castleto ask,theytotight that Dragon Kingmonitored, definitelywill tellyousideDragon Kingsimplynot to have‚Gu Shenwei’thisperson.”萧凤钗知道这个男人又吃醋了,冷冷地说:“笨蛋,龙王多疑你又不是不知道,他怎么可能将如此重要的事情托付给别人?这就是龙王,不用想了,如果你非要证据,就去金鹏堡问问,他们对龙王监视的紧,肯定会告诉你龙王身边根本没有‘顾慎为’这个人。”Meng MingshuwhereaboutsGolden Roc Castlewill not inquireDragon King, buthebelieves that the judgment of Xiao Fengchai, said with a smile: „Manbefore you are a fool. Do Iwantto convey a messageforhimreally? The father will not be happy,thinksIintendto betraySupreme King.”孟明恕才不会去向金鹏堡打听龙王,但他相信萧凤钗的判断,笑道:“男人在你面前都是笨蛋。我真要替他传话吗?父亲可能不会高兴,以为我有意背叛独步王。”„Naturallymustsay, ifDragon Kingguessedaccurately, youwere the Meng Yuzunmost efficientson, ifMeng Yuzundid not thinkto have the danger, you can also contribute to a great merit.”
“当然要说,万一龙王猜测准确,你就是孟玉尊最得力的儿子,如果孟玉尊不觉得有危险,你也能立一大功。”Meng Mingshusuddenly, „day after tomorrowmeeting, canbenegotiations, canbe a trap. The phoenixornamental hairpin, you were really toointelligent.”孟明恕恍然,“后天的会面,可以是一次谈判,也可以是一个陷阱。凤钗,你真是太聪明了。”Xiao Fengchaidid not thinkoneselfintelligent, butthought that the manis too stupid.萧凤钗不觉得自己有多聪明,只是觉得男人太笨。Dragon KingallowsNie Zengto askat will, thereforeleavesto keep a person of laneshortly, Nie Zenghas opened the mouth, „thatwomanhas recognizedDragon Kingprobably.”龙王允许聂增随意发问,因此离开留人巷没多久,聂增就开口了,“那个女人好像认出了龙王。”„To deceivehernot to be easy.”
“想骗过她可不容易。”„Doesn't thishave the danger?”
“这没危险吗?”„Iaccording tohaving the dangerdeal.”
“我会按照有危险来应对。”Nie Zengpeaceful a meeting, proposed that anotherissue, „Iknow not many, butIheardsince childhood the Jade CityMengwithGolden Roc Castleis the whole family, Dragon Kinghas confidenceto cut offthisrelationsreally?”聂增安静了一会,提出另一个问题,“我知道得不多,可我从小就听说璧玉城孟氏跟金鹏堡是一家人,龙王真有把握斩断这层关系吗?”„It is not I, isSupreme Kingfrombreakinghisarm, hehas not needed‚whole family’.”
“不是我,是独步王自断其臂,他已经不需‘一家人’了。”„Supreme Kingdoes this, tooto be stupid?”Nie Zengsaidwith amazement.
“独步王这样做,岂不是太愚蠢了?”聂增惊讶地说。„Thereforeourdutiesareto discovertruereason, do not explain the behavior of enemywith the stupidthesetwocharacters.”
“所以咱们的任务就是找出其中的真正理由,绝不要用愚蠢这两个字解释敌人的行为。”Dragon Kingactuallysaid that „we”, Nie Zengis more surprised, hismartial artsis notspeciallyexcel, has not appeared the fortein the intelligentwisdom, whydoes not understandDragon King to specially„training”.龙王竟然说“咱们”,聂增更加惊讶,他的武功不是特别高强,在聪明智慧上也没显出过人之处,不明白龙王为何要特意“培养”自己。Heburiesthisdoubts at heart, butasked: „Receivesround trip?”
他将这个疑惑埋在心里,而是问道:“接下来去哪?”„Sees the Meng Familymaster, perhapsIcancurehissickness, so long ashenods, Xiao Fengchaiwas not dangerous.”
“去看望孟家的主人,或许我能把他的病治好,只要他点头,萧凤钗就不是危险了。”„But...... Why doesn't Dragon Kinglook forMeng Yuzunfrom the beginning?”
“可是……龙王为什么不一开始就去找孟玉尊?”Gu Shenweilooks at the youngster, „was quickyouto understand.”顾慎为看着少年,“很快你就会明白了。”( to be continued )
