Zhong Heng goes out of the tent, saw that accompanying and guard in groups are waiting for themselves, immediately felt satisfies arises spontaneously from the bottom of the heart, thought that until now all pay all resources are well used. 钟衡走出帐篷,看到成群的随从与卫兵正在等候自己,立刻感到一股满足从心底油然而生,觉得迄今为止的一切付出全都物有所值。 The crowd is the buried treasure, crowd of obedience is more precious than the buried treasure, likely is the hand and foot that lengthens, can turn into the giant some lucky fellow instantaneously. 人群是宝藏,服从的人群则比宝藏还要珍贵,像是延长的手足,能将某个幸运儿瞬间变成巨人。 Zhong Heng believes oneself is a lucky fellow, he once submerged in the crowd, consumes the entire energy to guess the subtle intention of boss, struggles for many years unable to emerge diligently, until meeting Dragon King, his destiny has the change. 钟衡相信自己是幸运儿,他曾经淹没在人群中,耗费全部精力揣测上司的微妙意图,努力奋斗多年也没能脱颖而出,直到遇见龙王,他的命运才发生改变。 Dragon King must revenge eventually, Zhong Heng walks while thinks, is crowding around dozens people. 龙王终究是要报仇,钟衡边走边想,身后簇拥着数十人。 Different to Fang Wenshi, Zhong Heng never thinks that the revenge and strives for hegemony mutually contradictory, just the opposite, he had completely understood the important surname of hatred to Dragon King, obliterates this point, Dragon King will be only outstanding Killer(s), he is willing to gain a footing in the Dragon King revenge enterprise, when the goal will be Wei Song, he was more positive. 与方闻是不一样,钟衡从来不认为复仇与争霸相互矛盾,恰恰相反,他看透了仇恨对龙王的重要姓,抹煞这一点,龙王将只是一名优秀的杀手,他愿意在龙王的复仇事业中占据一席之地,当目标是卫嵩的时候,他更积极了。 Wei Song presses in his head many years, is he in one of the important reasons in the crowd not being able to pace back and forth, two people have to kill the enmity of child, if this is in Central Plains, Zhong Heng already vanished in this world, the sound compares a mosquito to be small. 卫嵩压在他头上多年,是他在人群中徘徊不进的重要原因之一,两人还有着杀子之仇,如果这是在中原,钟衡早已在这世上消失,声响比一只蚊虫还小。 Two crossed, three have not arrived, all living things go to sleep or makes merry while one can soundly, is the best opportunity that many plots have. 二更已过,三更未到,正是众生酣然入睡或及时行乐的时候,也是诸多阴谋产生的最佳时机。 Ma Lian takes off the official's costume, the festival stick gives the specialist to collect properly, stands in the friend who the tent entrance greets the new friend. 马廉脱去官服,节杖交给专人妥善收藏,站在帐篷门口迎接新交的朋友。 Zhong Heng puts on the Western Region type specially long gown, is separated by several steps, stretches out the arms like the Western Region person, before arriving turns into the Central Plains type ritual finally submissively, in this process, he observes Ma Lian's response, knows oneself not be intimate with well. 钟衡特意穿上西域式的长袍,相隔数步,像西域人一样张开双臂,临到最后又变成中原式的拱手礼,在这个过程中,他观察到马廉的反应,知道自己还是不要过于亲近为好。 This is the small banquet, two people opposite sits, the front has a small table respectively, Ma Lian assigns the person to display the Central Plains good wine, Zhong Heng brings the Central Plains special product, therefore, recognizes the strange cooked food and taste good wine becomes the support first half topic. 这是小型酒宴,两人对面而坐,前方各有一张小桌,马廉命人摆上中原美酒,钟衡则带来中原特产,于是,辨识奇异菜肴与品味美酒成为支撑前半场的话题。 Then, two people recall the old acquaintance in Central Plains government logically, suddenly discovers several common acquaintances, the relations pulls closer all of a sudden, „horse brother” and „clock brother” the name obviously was not towering. 接下来,两人顺理成章回忆起中原官场中的旧相识,竟然找出几名共同的熟人,关系一下子又拉近许多,“马兄”、“钟兄”的称呼也就不显突兀了。 both sides accompany also contributes many interesting subjects, when a Ma Lian's trusted subordinate draws to draw the sound to describe the envoy Sir to leave Beijing the scene, „hundred officers go out of town to see off, the common people avenue waits and sees, compared with Jade City resident many dozens times, rides is seeing only the sea of people immediately, does not look to the end, my family Sir is known as the prestige, but can arouse such big interest, because thousand ride the war of pass/test. Central Plains many years have not fought such big successful battle, left foul odor truly.” 双方的随从们也贡献不少有趣的谈资,马廉的一名亲信绘声绘声地描述使节大人离京时的场景,“百官出城相送,百姓夹道观望,比璧玉城居民多几十倍,骑在马上只见人山人海,一眼望不到头,我家大人素有威望,不过能引起这么大的关注,还是因为千骑关之战。中原多少年来没打过这么大的胜仗啦,真正出了一口恶气。” The Zhong Heng trusted aide suitable expressed the regret, „was a pity that Sir Prime Minister remained behind Xiaoyao Lake at that time, cannot arrive at the battlefield, Dragon King has a high opinion of Prime Minister, went to battle each time assigns Prime Minister to govern the rear business, if not for this time heard that the divine land envoy kissed to distribute rewards, Dragon King will not call Prime Minister.” 钟衡的心腹则适宜地表示遗憾,“可惜丞相大人当时留守逍遥海,没能亲临战场,龙王倚重丞相,每次出征都命丞相掌管后方事务,这次若不是听说神州使节亲来劳军,龙王也不会将丞相叫来。” „Hasn't clock brother participated in thousand to ride the war of pass/test?” Ma Lian asked freely spoken. “钟兄没参加千骑关之战吗？”马廉顺口问道。 „Misses, but I have not been worried actually.” “只是无缘,不过我倒是从来没担心过。” „Why this is, bell does brother figure out Dragon King to win?” “这是为何,钟兄算出龙王必胜？” „That actually not, I receive Dragon King secret Xin, knows that desolate king Your Highness and Dragon King set together extinguish the idea of enemy, all of a sudden was at heart steadfast, said that sentence not respectful words, I do not believe Dragon King, suspects the sovereign uncle?” “那倒不是,我接到龙王秘信,知道萧王殿下与龙王共同定下灭敌之计,心里一下子就踏实了,说句不恭敬的话,我就算不相信龙王,难道还怀疑皇叔吗？” Two people laugh, accompany find the excuse to withdraw. 两人大笑,随从们纷纷找借口退出。 Ma Lian smiling face dissolves, sighed with no reason at all, „I envied bell the brother, must meet the enlightened ruler, expensive was Prime Minister, world several people can have such spell of good or bad fortune?” 马廉笑容渐隐,无缘无故地叹了口气,“我真羡慕钟兄,得遇明主,贵为丞相,天下几人能有这样的际遇？” „Yeah.” Zhong Heng not only humble and waves proud, „Shi Guo is a very tiny area, the population does not surpass a Central Plains county, said is Prime Minister, but empty has its.” “哎。”钟衡既谦逊又骄傲地挥挥手,“石国乃弹丸之地,人口不超过中原一县,说是丞相,不过虚有其名。” Ma Lian slightly reveal surprise, „Dragon King has the Western Region half of the country, how bell is the brother only Shi Guo Prime Minister?” 马廉微露诧异,“龙王坐拥西域半壁江山,钟兄何以只是石国丞相？” „Beginning horse brother Western Region, the situation too did not understand probably, outside has wide divided opinions, actually exaggerated the Dragon King strength and ambition. Dragon King indeed saves the Xiaoyao Lake five countries from the Golden Roc army oppression of the people, pursues the Northern Court cavalry to restore the Shu Le country, but does not have the meaning of annexation certainly, now six country countries do not change and king not to change surname, is grateful to Dragon King. As for Shi Guo, this country princess is Queen Dragon King, is only immature because of new Monarch, ‚taking advantage of’ gets the duty of Prime Minister me temporarily, when how long.” “马兄初来西域,对此地形势大概不太了解,外面众说纷纭,其实夸大了龙王的实力与野心。龙王的确从金鹏军铁蹄之下挽救逍遥海五国,驱逐北庭骑兵恢复疏勒国,但是绝无吞并之意,如今六国国不改号、王不改姓,都对龙王感恩戴德。至于石国,该国公主即是龙王王后,只因新君幼小,将我‘借’去暂领丞相之职,当不了多久。” Ma Lian frequently nods, raises glass to urge to drink, after drinking, asked: „Then Dragon King only then king doesn't, have the territory?” 马廉频频点头,举杯劝酒,喝过之后又问:“然则龙王只有王号,没有领地吗？” „The number of Dragon King came from Great Snow Mountain, ‚Head of the Dragon, King of Five Peaks’ is , the Great Snow Mountain place thousand li (500 km), belongs to the Dragon King territory, the same place, is Jade City.” “龙王之号来自大雪山,‘群龙之首、五峰之王’是也,大雪山地方千里,属于龙王领地,还有一块,就是璧玉城。” Ma Lian raises glass does not speak, long time said: „Did Jade City three countries round manages undergo for many years, Dragon King must break away from the convention?” 马廉举杯不语,半晌才道:“璧玉城三国轮管已历多年,龙王是要打破惯例吗？” „Breaks away from the convention is not Dragon King, is Golden Roc Castle, Supreme King lets a wolf into the fold, perishes the Shu Le country with the aid of the Northern Court cavalry, in fact since then turns the manages not to exist, now Northern Court escapes, is forced to give up Jade City, the Shu Le duplicate country, resigns the jurisdiction on own initiative, Dragon King takes the Jade City slight effort, since delays, is because respects the meaning of Central Plains.” “打破惯例的不是龙王,是金鹏堡,独步王引狼入室,借助北庭骑兵灭亡疏勒国,事实上从那时起轮管就已不存在,如今北庭远遁,被迫放弃璧玉城,疏勒复国,主动让出管辖权,龙王拿下璧玉城不过举手之劳,拖延至今,全是因为尊重中原的意思。” Ma Lian appears serious, puts down cup, „Dragon King and desolate king Your Highness collaborates, to obtain Jade City?” 马廉显得严肃许多,放下杯子,“龙王与萧王殿下联手,就是为了取得璧玉城吗？” Zhong Heng shakes the head with a smile, „Dragon King has this intent, desolate Wangke had not consented, he said this matter of great substance, by the emperor was not judged that personally is good.” 钟衡笑着摇头,“龙王是有此意,萧王可没应允,他说兹事体大,非由皇帝陛下亲自裁断才行。” Ma Lian has also smiled, „desolate king Your Highness said right, this time returns to the capital, thinks for this matter?” 马廉也笑了,“萧王殿下说的没错,他此次回京,想必就是为了这件事吧？” About Zhong Heng looked, small sound said: „This saying can only say in private, desolate king returns to the capital for this matter, he thanked Dragon King thousand to ride the pass/test to assist, pledged that must be Dragon King strives for Jade City. However, I was a little actually worried.” 钟衡左右看了看,小声道:“这话只能私下说,萧王正是为此事回京,他感谢龙王千骑关相助,承诺要为龙王争取到璧玉城。不过,我却有点担心。” „What is worried about?” “担心什么？” Zhong Heng starts to speak but hesitates, raises glass to drink. 钟衡欲言又止,举杯喝酒。 Ma Lian strokes however disgruntledly, „doesn't clock brother believe me? Your my two people pure are temperament are congenial sit together drinks wine, I am not the Central Plains envoy, you are not Dragon King Prime Minister, said three points like the words, did not have the meaning.” 马廉拂然不悦,“钟兄是不相信我吗？你我二人纯是脾气相投才坐在一起饮酒,我不是中原使节,你也不是龙王丞相,像这样话说三分,就没意思了。” „Horse brother excuses me, un, is this, desolate king returns to the capital always some favor intercourses, up and down to arrange, Dragon King hopes that can fund not many gold and silver, finally desolate king categorically rejects. To be honest, Dragon King with me, although is the Central Plains people, is to the country for a long time, really does not understand that side custom.” “马兄见谅,嗯,是这样,萧王回京总有些人情往来、上下打点,龙王希望能资助一笔不多的金银,结果萧王断然拒绝。说实话,龙王与我虽然都是中原人,可是离国已久,实在不了解那边的规矩。” Ma Lian sincere say/way: „desolate king Your Highness rejects is, the Imperial Court but actually too sweeping change, the guard to the inside and outside transportation has not been very strict, desolate king Your Highness expensive is the sovereign uncle, from, when sets an example, but he, since pledged, naturally 78 assurances, bell the brother told Dragon King, does not need to be overanxious.” 马廉正色道:“萧王殿下拒绝得是,朝廷倒也没有太大变化,对内外交通的防范还是非常严格,萧王殿下贵为皇叔,自当以身作则,不过他既然承诺了,自然有78分把握,钟兄告诉龙王,不必过虑。” „, Hehe, treated in Western Region for a long time, the whole person from inside to outside quickly turned into the Western Region person, oh, was really does not have the face to return to the hometown again.” “原来如此,呵呵,在西域待久了,整个人从里到外都快变成西域人了,唉,真是再也没有脸面回家乡喽。” „Clock brother speaks discreetly, emperor heavenly prestige shining four directions, so long as Dragon King is willing to profess allegiance, is where is not the Central Plains person? Even if in Central Plains, place wind, the difference is not smaller than Western Region.” “钟兄言重,皇帝天威照耀四方,只要龙王愿意称臣,身在何处不是中原人？就算同在中原,一地一风,差异不比西域小。” The Zhong Heng cup hands over the left hand, the right arm holds up high, falls gently, „horse brother is really the intimate friend , does Dragon King want to obtain the acknowledgment of Central Plains? Is I, is says the night to be ashamed and resentful, looks forward to turn over to the Central Plains name under immediately , is quite henceforth satisfied.” 钟衡杯交左手,右臂高高举起,轻轻落下,“马兄真乃知音也,龙王何尝不想得到中原的承认？就是我,也是曰夜惭恨,巴不得马上归到中原名下,从此也好心安理得。” The talk is in the confidential stage, Ma Lian narrated that backed on Central Plains all sorts of advantage, Zhong Heng suggests in Dragon King to prepare a big gold and silver, cannotted find a taker unexpectedly. 谈话由此进入推心置腹的阶段,马廉讲述背靠中原的种种好处,钟衡则暗示龙王手里准备了一大笔金银,竟然无处可送。 Ma Lian refers to thousand to ride the war of pass/test frequently, Zhong Heng all by ambiguously does not deal at the scene, when otherwise Zhong Heng raised desolate king and Western Region protects officer Wei Song, Ma Lian also totally returned to praise, in his mouth, the Central Plains deliberation hall never had the factional strife, under emperor's management, the ministers small dispute was impossible to occur. 马廉频繁谈及千骑关之战,钟衡全以不在现场含糊应对,反之当钟衡提起萧王和西域都护官卫嵩,马廉也一概回以颂扬,在他口中,中原朝堂从来不存在党争,在皇帝的主持下,大臣们连小小的争执都不可能发生。 When Zhong Heng said goodbye is late at night, the state of intoxication was obvious, the footsteps staggered, reluctantly went out of the tent under supporting by the arm of two accompanying, Ma Lian's face was also red, delivered to outside the tent/account, has gazed after Zhong Heng to vanish, turned around. 钟衡告辞时已是深夜,醉态明显,脚步踉跄,在两名随从的搀扶下才勉强走出帐篷,马廉的脸也红了,送到帐外,一直目送钟衡消失,才转身回去。 Zhong Heng to just the melted snow of melting wash the face, digs out the throat to spit several, the order accompanied the guard to rest, sees Dragon King solitarily quietly. 钟衡以刚刚融化的雪水洗脸,抠着嗓子吐了几回,命令随从卫兵休息,只身一人悄悄去见龙王。 He knows that Dragon King little rests in the night. 他知道龙王在夜里很少休息。 „Ma Lian is a puppet.” The Zhong Heng first few words give the conclusion, „, moreover is disciple of the timid being afraid of getting into trouble, he will accept the Dragon King gold and silver unrestrained/no trace of politeness, returning to Central Plains actually not to do any matter for Dragon King.” “马廉是个傀儡。”钟衡第一句话就给出结论,“而且是个胆小怕事之徒,他会毫不客气地收下龙王的金银,回到中原却不会替龙王做任何事。” „Is he puppet, who pulling strings is?” “他是傀儡,指使者是谁？” „I do not know, possibly in Central Plains, possibly hides side him, gives me again 2-3 days of time, can definitely find out the truth, hopes that this person is not Wei Song.” “我不知道,可能远在中原,也可能藏在他身边,再给我两三天时间,肯定能查出真相来,希望这个人不是卫嵩。” „Should not be, desolate king is insufficient to letting about the political opponent weakly this military exploit investigates.” “应该不是,萧王不至于软弱到让政敌左右这次军功调查。” Zhong Heng nods, „also has, Ma Lian as if knows nothing about the Dragon King real status, he will care about the Dragon King future goal.” 钟衡点点头,“还有,马廉对龙王的真实身份似乎一无所知,他更关心龙王未来的目的。” „Looks up his person well.” “好好查一查他身边的人。” The first probe has not yielded too many results, after Zhong Heng returns to the dwelling, carefully recalled side Ma Lian each accompanies, looks for the person who can use. 第一次试探没有取得太多成果,钟衡回到住处之后,仔细回想马廉身边的每一个随从,寻找可以利用的人。 Gu Shenwei has not waited for Zhong Heng diligently, time said the morning, returned to the Jade City east Dragon Army camp, immediately summons Tu Gou. 顾慎为没有坐等钟衡努力,次曰上午,一回到璧玉城东边的龙军营地,立刻召见屠狗。 Tu Gou is not quite always comfortable in front of Dragon King, if he has not practiced the young lad merit, the grandson probably is Dragon King this age, he is the Kongtong Faction elder, usually received to flatter, flattered others appears very clumsy. 屠狗在龙王面前总是不太自在,如果他没练童子功,孙子大概就是龙王这个岁数,他又是崆峒派长老,平时受奉承惯了,奉承别人就显得非常笨拙。 But he is still willing to follow Dragon King, likes that type the stimulation that has the destruction surname, likes the Dragon King indifferent and fair surname standard, this oversuspicious young people, personnel time actually extremely little gives the fetter. 但他仍愿意追随龙王,喜欢那种带有破坏姓的刺激,更喜欢龙王冷漠而公正的姓格,这个多疑的年轻人,用人的时候却极少给予束缚。 However this time duty he does not like, does not need to draw a sword, does not need to take risk, but invited a person, his Elder Sister slaughter handsome. 不过这一次的任务他不太喜欢,不用拔刀,也不用冒险,只是请来一个人,他的姐姐屠翩翩。 The slaughter handsome had not forgotten that failure, she persuaded Dragon King do not attack thousand to ride the pass/test, but collaborated with desolate king, finally was rejected with stern words, when tea arrived, Dragon King actually immediately changes the mind, this made her take to heart. 屠翩翩没有忘记那次失败,她劝说龙王不要攻打千骑关,而是与萧王联手,结果遭到严辞拒绝,等到罗宁茶一到,龙王却立刻改变主意,这更让她耿耿于怀。 Therefore, although she looked that sees Dragon King in younger brother's face, the facial expression is quite arrogant, grasps the big walking stick, does not select, met said: „Did Dragon King remember my this ugly old lady? Is Madame Luo good?” 因此,她虽然看在弟弟的面子上来见龙王,神情却极为高傲,手持高大的拐杖,连头都不点,一见面就说:“龙王怎么想起我这个丑老太婆了？罗夫人还好吗？” Gu Shenwei has not paid attention to her satire, asked directly: „Is Kongtong Faction loyal to Wei Song Sir health/guard?” 顾慎为没有理睬她的讽刺,直接问道:“崆峒派忠于卫嵩卫大人吧？” That was during the stay in Longting, Gu Shenwei knew that Qingcheng sent to be close with the Luo Family village relations, backers of Kongtong Faction in Imperial Court was Wei Song. 那还是在龙庭的时候,顾慎为得知青城派与骆家庄关系密切,崆峒派在朝中的靠山则是卫嵩。 The slaughter handsome stares, „we are the Jianghu schools, how to be loyal to the Imperial Court official? Sir health/guard very much likes the view space of Kongtong Faction, every year delivers some incense and candle money fixedly.” 屠翩翩一愣,“我们是江湖门派,怎么会忠于朝廷官员？卫大人不过是很喜欢崆峒派的观宇,每年固定送些香火钱罢了。” „Is very good, I want to kill Wei Song, hopes that you can help.” “很好,我想杀死卫嵩,希望你能帮忙。” The Tu sister and brother are surprised, slaughter handsome even walking stick horizontally in hand. 屠氏姐弟大吃一惊,屠翩翩甚至将拐杖横在手中。 ( Sought subscription to seek recommendation)( to be continued.) （求订阅求推荐）(未完待续。)
