张佑急坏了,龙王离开还不到半个时辰,他就感到心口憋闷,一阵阵发慌,在胸前轻轻一按就有疼痛感,手心里渗出一层层的细汗,擦都擦不净,两边太阳穴剧烈地跳动,脑袋嗡嗡地响疼。Heunderstands,thisis the indication of poison.
他明白,这就是中毒的征兆。Ifknowssomeabout the Jade Cityall partiesinfluence, hemaylook for the Golden Roc Castlehelp, isin his eyes, entireWestern Regionis the gruel that a potmakesrandomly, say nothing ofsmallJade City, thereforehewaited forcarefully,dawnsends forinquiringDragon King.
如果对璧玉城各方势力更了解一些,他或许会找金鹏堡帮忙,可是在他眼里,整个西域都是一锅乱煮的粥,更不用说小小的璧玉城了,所以他小心等待,天一亮就派人去打听龙王在不在。Intwodays of muchtime, altogetherinquiredseveraltimes, lastday, open/stretchYoufeltparticularly the symptom of poisoningis even more obvious, is anxiousback and forthinowntentspins, in the afternoonknew that Dragon Kingcame back, andinvitedhimto meet, nearlywept.
两天多的时间里,一共打听了十几次,尤其是最后一天,张佑感到中毒症状越发明显,在自己的帐篷里急得来回打转,午后得知龙王已经回来,并且邀请他相会,险些喜极而泣。ThisisthirdtimeseesDragon King, the ice-coldsavageimpressionhas been able hardly be removed, sawthatslightlypaleface, open/stretchYoucannot help butshivered.
这是第三次见龙王,冰冷凶残的印象已经挥之不去,一见到那张略显苍白的脸,张佑就不由自主颤抖了一下。Although the Dragon Kingtentis not small, insidedoes not haveanythingto decorate, leaves behind the bigpieceopen area, momentarilycanperformoneto fight, thereforeappears and masterequallyice-cold, opensblesses the understandingDragon Kingare from this more.龙王的帐篷虽然不小,里面却没什么摆设,留下大片空地,随时都可以上演一场打斗,因此显得跟主人一样冰冷,张佑由此对龙王的了解更多一些。„Iand otherDragon Kingwere very long.”
“我等龙王已经很久了。”„Un.”Gu Shenweisits wellon the shortcot, looks atseveralstepsbeside the flatteringeunuches, carefullystudies, do not underestimateanybody, thisis the lesson that hefor many yearsobtained, „takes away.”Hesaid,throws a pill.
“嗯。”顾慎为端坐在矮榻上,看着几步之外的谄媚阉人,仔细研究起来,不要低估任何人,这是他多年来得到的教训,“拿去。”他说,扔过去一粒药丸。open/stretchwhatboth handsholdin the chest front, the pillare fallingstart, hishurriedswallows, layer on layer/heavilyputs out the one breath, „many thanks the Dragon Kinggracious gift, Ifelt that nowwas much better, was the chest is a little sore, all right?”
张何双手捧在胸前,药丸正落入手中,他急忙一口吞下,重重地吐出一口气,“多谢龙王恩赐,我现在感觉好多了,就是胸口还有点疼,没事吧?”„All right, sleepswell.”Gu Shenweiwill not point out that the so-calledchesthurtsis only the symptom that the opposite partyconjectures.
“没事,睡一觉就好。”顾慎为可不会指出所谓的胸疼只是对方臆想出来的症状。„Dragon King...... Succeeded?”
“龙王……成功了?”Gu Shenweihad not replied that hisissue, „heardover the two daysyouhave handledmanymatters.”顾慎为没有回答他的问题,“听说这两天你做了不少事情。”open/stretchYoucannot help butbends the waistto smile obsequiously, Dragon Kingmoreappearskeeps aloof, heis instead more comfortable, „actuallydoes not haveanything, IgivefellowSirsto provide an opinion, beforehanddoes not havediscussedwithDragon Kingwith enough time,hopesyouwill not care.”
张佑不由自主弯腰谄笑,龙王越显得高高在上,他反而越自在,“其实也没什么,我只是给各位大人提供一点意见,事先也没来得及与龙王商量,希望您不会太在意。”open/stretchYoubangbusy, Dragon KingandWestern Regionprotected the officersto be missing, the consultancy conference that the timesaidwas heldinFour Truths Templeas usual, Supreme Kinghas discoveredanythingprobably, oneselfhave not come, sendingonesovereignto participate.
张佑帮了一个大忙,龙王与西域都护官都失踪了,次曰的协商会议照常在四谛伽蓝举行,独步王大概是发现了什么,自己没来,派一名宗主参加。Inthisconference, twoCentral Plainsmartial arts worldexpertsconfirmedtoSir,SirMa Lianmawoundindeedis not the slenderbladecreates, insteadextremelytallieswithCentral Plains that the guarduses.
在这次会议上,两名中原武林高手向诸位大人证实,马廉马大人身上的伤口的确不是狭刀造成,反而与护卫所用的中原单刀极为吻合。
The Assassin(s)statusall of a suddenchanged, is investigates the guardto associatewithwhomduringWestern Regionquiteclosely, the cluemorecollectsmoremuch, finallyallaimsleavesJade CityWei Songin a panic.刺客的身份一下子变了,接下来就是调查护卫在西域期间与谁交往比较密切,线索越汇越多,最后全都指向仓皇离开璧玉城的卫嵩。Central Plainssends the Western Regionhighestsenior officialto murder the envoy who the emperorsendsunexpectedly, suchmatteris unthinkable, no onedaresto draw the conclusion, open/stretchYoudisplays the intelligence and ability, suggested that vice-causes the duty that Sun ChengproxyWestern Regionprotects the officer, matteris all of a sudden smoother, Sun Chengobeys an orderreluctantly, sends fordigging outplentierevidence, indicated that Wei Song is really instigatessecretly.中原派驻西域的最高长官竟然谋杀皇帝派来的使节,这样的事过于匪夷所思,谁都不敢下定论,张佑发挥聪明才智,建议副使孙成器代理西域都护官的职务,事情一下子顺利多了,孙成器勉强应命,派人挖出更多证据,表明卫嵩确是幕后主使。Whyas forkills people, the day ofNew Moon HalldiscipleHan Fentalking nonsensewas usedunexpectedly, keeps a person of laneconfirmed the female, severalyears ago, the health/guardgreatlyfromsupervises the cityofficers the time, isherherepatron, thisthought the former friendshipreignition, actuallybyCentral Plainsenvoyfirstonestep.
至于为何杀人,晓月堂弟子韩芬那天的胡说八道竟然被用上了,留人巷的记女证实,早在几年以前,卫大从还是督城官的时候,就是她这里的常客,这回本想旧情重燃,却被中原使节抢先一步。As the matter stands, thatnamedYang Hao'syoungsterAssassin(s)has become the immaterialcharacter, hisappearanceis only a coincidence.
这样一来,那名叫杨昊的少年刺客就成了无关紧要的人物,他的出现只是一次巧合。
The story of Gu Shenweitothisbeing full of loopholesis not quite satisfied, butchangedwithout enough time, thisalsoexplained that Yan Qinwins overDragon Kingeagerly, opportunity that hecantake.顾慎为对这个漏洞百出的故事不太满意,但是已经来不及更改,这也说明严沁急于拉拢龙王,正是他可以利用的机会。„Herehasseveralletters, isWei Songown handwritingwrites, perhapsis useful.”
“这里有几封信,是卫嵩亲笔写的,或许用得上。”Openedblessesto receivethatseveralpages of papers, lookedfast, raised the headexcitedly, „was good, originallyWei Songthisannihilated the thiefto wait onhiddento the strictnessindiscontented, theselettersdelivered, strictwaits onwill definitely say that Dragon Kingkilledwell......”
张佑接过那几页纸,快速看了一遍,兴奋地抬起头,“太好了,原来卫嵩这个歼贼对严中侍暗藏不满,这几封信一送上去,严中侍肯定会说龙王杀得好……”open/stretchYoucovers the mouthhurriedly, Dragon Kingcomes backquickly, the Wei Songkillednewshas not passed, in the surface, he should also not know that is right.
张佑急忙捂住嘴巴,龙王回来得快,卫嵩被杀的消息还没有传到,表面上,他也应该不知道才对。Gu Shenweidoes not care, totomorrow afternoon, Wei Songoneline of will dieof the news of fireat the latestwill spread overentireJade City, healsoknows that open/stretchYouwill exaggerateitsrefined languageintentionally, Wei Songextremelyavoids mentioningin the firsttwolettersto the decisionexpressiondoubts that in the strictnesswill wait on, certainlynotdiscontentedmeaning.顾慎为并不在意,最迟到明天下午,卫嵩一行人死于大火的消息就将传遍整个璧玉城,他还知道张佑故意夸张其辞,卫嵩在前两封信里只是极隐讳地对严中侍的决定表达疑惑,绝无不满之意。open/stretchYouputs outfourthto be soaked the blackletter paperby the inkalone, slightlyhas thought that „this‚managessound’whodoes not knowis, perhapsisWei Songin the same party members of Imperial Court, is worth.”
张佑单独拿出第四封被墨汁浸黑的信纸,略有所思,“这个‘管声’不知是谁,没准是卫嵩在朝中的同党,值得一查。”InGu Shenweiheartonestartled, opensblessesobviouslyisYan Qin'strusted aide, howcannot know that „strictDiyandoes managesound”is the adopted son of master? Buthesurprisedconceals at heart, „perhapsis the minister of somesurnamemanages.”顾慎为心中一惊,张佑明显是严沁的心腹,怎么会不知道“严笛严管声”是主人的义子?但他将惊讶藏在心里,“或许是某位姓管的大臣。”„Is impossible, the Imperial CourtthreeaboveofficialsIallknow,fiveabovehave heard the majority, insidehas not been surnamed the person of manages, ‚should managessound’besomebody'scharacter, Wei Songhas not confessedtoDragon King?”
“不可能,朝中三品以上的官员我全知道,五品以上听说过一多半,里面没有姓管的人,‘管声’应该是某人的字,卫嵩没向龙王坦白吗?”„Iafterhediedfindsthisletter.”Gu Shenweispoke thoughtlesslyto lie, rememberedthesetwocharactersat heartfirmly.
“我在他死后才发现这封信。”顾慎为随口撒谎,心里将这两个字牢牢记住。„Wei Song...... Saidmanymatters?”
“卫嵩……说了不少事情吧?”„Many, moreoverisstrictdoes not wait on the happymatter.”
“不少,而且都是严中侍不会高兴的事情。”Opensblesses the complexionchanges, coughedtwo saying: „Ido not conceal, strictwaits onwith the Dragon Kingfather attended toGeneralhaving a grudge, isheordersto assassinate the Gu Clanentire family, what is done cannot be undone, no onecanargue, ifDragon Kinginsists onrevenging, Istandhere, startedfromme.”
张佑脸色微变,咳了两声说:“那我也就不掩饰了,严中侍与龙王的父亲顾将军有仇,是他下令暗杀顾氏全家,覆水难收,谁也不能辩解,龙王若是执意报仇,我就站在这里,从我开始好了。”open/stretchYousaidhave a strong sense of righteousness, does not wait forDragon Kingto take a stand, has traded immediately an tone, „, but, Dragon Kingvision, ifcanlook farther ahead, the heartis broader, the repayment that youobtainwill be much more thanJade City.”
张佑说得大义凛然,不等龙王表态,马上又换了一种语气,“不过,龙王的眼光要是能看得更远一点,心胸更宽阔一点的话,您得到的回报会将会远远大于璧玉城。”„Firstsaidone, IremoveWei Songambecausehemustkillmefirst.”
“先说一句,我除掉卫嵩是因为他要先杀我。”„Is clear, Iwill wait onto write a confidential letterto the strictness, specificallydescribed the situation, Wei Songlacked consideration for the whole, privatemade the decision, deserved to be damned, will not becomeDragon Kingandstrictwill wait on the barrier.”
“明白明白,我会给严中侍写一封密信,详细说明情况,卫嵩不顾大局,私做决定,死有余辜,绝不会成为龙王与严中侍之间的障碍。”„Un, the vengefulness for father's murderis absolutely irreconcilable, wantsto makemesuchforget that is not easy.”
“嗯,杀父之仇不共戴天,想让我就这么忘记可不容易。”„Thatisnatural, but when there is a saying‚reprisal breeds reprisal’, ifDragon Kingthinks that revengedindustryis more important than the emperor, Idid not have the words saying that was willing dead inJade Citydied in the line of duty.”
“那是当然,不过有句话叫‘冤冤相报何时了’,龙王若是认为报仇比帝王之业更重要,我没话说,甘愿死在璧玉城殉职。”„Thensaid that Icanobtainanythingto repay.”In the Gu Shenweitonerevealsonereluctantly, the innermost feelingsis strugglingprobablyintensely.
“接着说吧,我能得到什么回报。”顾慎为语气里露出一丝勉强,好像内心正在激烈斗争。OpensSukemasato treat assuccessfulsign, „can Dragon KinginWestern Region, knowyourpresentevery action and every movementto be importantto the Central Plainsdeliberation hall?”
张佑将之当作成功的迹象,“龙王远在西域,可知您现在的一举一动对中原朝堂都非常重要?”„Does not know.”
“不知。”„Heh, thousandrideto closefights the Dragon Kingprestigeremoteness, desolateking, althoughsteals the meritto pose as, the sensible peopleknowthatwhat's the matter.”
“嘿,千骑关一战龙王威名远扬,萧王虽然窃功自居,明白人都知道那是怎么回事。”
Like Gu Shenweibeforehandguess, Yan Qinwins over the Dragon Kingbiggestgoalisto attackdesolateking, Dragon Kingonlyneedsto acknowledge that to the Central Plainsenvoy the previousmilitary exploitisdesolatekingreceives fraudulently, canchange the situation in Central Plainsdeliberation hall.
与顾慎为事先的猜测一样,严沁拉拢龙王的最大目的是打击萧王,龙王只需要向中原使节承认此前的军功是萧王冒领,就能改变中原朝堂的形势。Pays the extremelysmallprice, cangain the Central Plainspowerful official'ssupport, thisseems like a worthwhilebusiness, Gu Shenweiis vigilant, even if no family feudto mixininside, hewill not agreeeasily, the pricemeanssmall, oncedesolatekingdumps, the function of Dragon Kingwill vanish into thin air, inhishandmaynot haveany to keep in balanceYan Qin'shandle.
付出极微小的代价,就能取得中原权贵的支持,这看上去像是一笔合算的买卖,顾慎为却非常警惕,即使没有家仇掺在里面,他也不会轻易同意,代价微小意味着一旦萧王倒掉,龙王的作用就会烟消云散,他手里可没有任何能制衡严沁的把柄。„MeritisIanddesolatekingobtainstogether, issuch a matter.”Gu Shenweisaiddesolately.
“功劳是我和萧王一块取得的,就是这么回事。”顾慎为冷淡地说。open/stretchYouxiao, the nightrushed to the tent, to exerttorturematterhe unable to deal with, the aspectlikepresent, hemayearlybe prepared, „naturally, so far, desolatekingor the Central Plainsbighero, because of this, strictwaits onwill need help fromDragon King, Dragon Kingalsohad the opportunityto open up territoryto expand the earth.”
张佑笑了,夜闯帐篷、施加酷刑这种事他应付不了,像现在这样的局面,他可早有准备,“当然,到目前为止,萧王还是中原的大功臣,正因为如此,严中侍才会有求于龙王,龙王也才有机会开疆扩土。”„Opens up territoryto expand the earth?”
“开疆扩土?”open/stretchYoumannodsincluding the profound meaningslowly, heknows,thesefourcharacterstoanyKingare the enticement that is hardto resist, „pleaseallowmeto askonewith great courage, Dragon Kingfights up and down the country, finallycandecide where?”
张佑满含深意地慢慢点头,他知道,这四个字对任何王者都是难以抵挡的诱惑,“请允许我斗胆问一句,龙王南征北战,最终要定在何处?”„Jade City.”
“璧玉城。”„Is onlyJade City?”
“只是璧玉城?”„Ialsowant the Xiaoyao Lakedependency and Shu Lecountryto submit, withNorthern CourtandCentral Plainswithis the ally.”
“我还要逍遥海附庸、疏勒国臣服,与北庭、中原同为盟国。”„No longerneeds the three-countryroundmanagesexcept forJade City, actuallyallare unrelieved.”
“除了璧玉城不再需要三国轮管,其实一切都无变化。”„, Western Regionalsosois almost big.”
“差不多吧,西域也就这么大。”„Hehe, ‚Western Regionsois also big’, onelistensto know that Dragon Kingis far from the pond the thing, Western Regionis not very big, doesn't northhave the vastboundlessprairie?”
“呵呵,‘西域也就这么大’,一听就知道龙王绝非池中之物,西域不够大,北面不是还有辽阔无边的草原吗?”„Toinsatiably greedy, Icannot achieve.”
“以蛇吞象,我做不到。”„Hehe, onlyneeds a help, Dragon Kingwill become the genuinedragon, butwill not be the snake, this‚help’strictwill wait on to provide, desolatekingwill actually very shoutloud, actuallywill listenuseless, henothing butgives the Dragon KingJade Citymainstatus, from now onwill acknowledge the Dragon Kinggiven name.

Does Dragon Kingalsobelievedesolateking?”
“嘿嘿,只需要一点帮助,龙王就会成为真正的龙,而不是蛇,这点‘帮助’严中侍能提供,萧王喊得倒是挺响,其实中听不中用,他无非是给予龙王璧玉城主的身份,过后承认龙王的名号。龙王可知道,萧王从中原请来的高手就是河东骆家庄的骆启康,号称天下无敌,刚到西域就与卫嵩勾结,那天在四谛伽蓝,站在卫嵩身后的卫士就是他,原本是要向龙王下手。龙王还相信萧王吗?”open/stretchYouthese wordshave fermented for severaldays, opens the mouthincessantly, suddenlychanged a person, from the shrinkingpalacecastratedto wait onto turn into the give an exaggerated account of thingspersuasive speaker, a latterqualityYan Qinregarded as importanthisplace.
张佑的这番话已经酝酿好几天,一开口就滔滔不绝,眨眼间变了一个人,从畏畏缩缩的宫中阉侍变成了天花乱坠的说客,后一种素质正是严沁看重他的地方。„Dragon Kingconceives, the Central Plainshundreds of thousands ofarmiesdrivesNorthern Court, is ruthlessperspirationWang Jiazu, the survivoralso can only run awaytoten thousandli (0.5 km)beyond.

The worldherois blustery, strictwaited onsolelysettled onDragon King, Dragon KingcameCentral Plainslong, inWestern Region, won the foundationinNorthern Court, was the only candidate of prairienew master.”
“龙王设想一下,中原数十万大军直驱北庭,将汗王家族赶尽杀绝,幸存者也只能逃到万里之外。草原因此骤然无主,中原却没办法长期驻军,迫切地需要一位盟友占据此地。这个盟友不好挑选,随便安排一个人,得不到草原人的支持,从汗王子孙当中选一个,早晚又会反叛。天下英雄风起云涌,严中侍单单看中了龙王,龙王出身中原、长在西域,在北庭争得根基,正是草原新主的不二人选。”„Prairiepersonwill not supportmein the same old way, theyalreadywere familiar with the perspirationWang Jiazurule, that Iobtain‚foundation’, mayinsufficientlywork as the perspirationking.”
“草原人照样不会支持我,他们早已习惯汗王家族的统治,我取得的那点‘根基’,可不够当汗王的。”„Strictwaits onearlythinks ofthisissue, thereforehas thought a simpleideaforDragon King.”
“严中侍早想到这个问题,所以替龙王想了一个简单至极的主意。”„?”
“哦?”„Dragon Kingthinksto know,attended toGeneralonce and emperoris trapped inNorthern Courtfirsttogether, istenyears.”
“龙王想必知道,顾将军曾经与先帝一同受困北庭,长达十年之久。”Finallymentionedthismatter, underGu Shenwei.
终于提到这件事了,顾慎为点下头。„Dragon Kingwas bornduringexactlyattending toGeneralis the nature, naturally, attended toGeneralhaving the opportunityto return toCentral Plainsevery year, so long asDragon Kingdid not mind, can definitely......”
“龙王恰好出生在顾将军为质期间,当然,顾将军每年都有机会回中原,可是只要龙王不介意,完全可以……”open/stretchYouis not willingdownwardto say.
张佑不肯往下说了。„Claimed that mymotheris the perspirationWang Jiazuperson.”
“声称我的亲生母亲是汗王家族的人。”„Right, thismatter was not quite goodto show, butis skillful, Little Yan Zhihas surrenderedtoCentral Plains, althoughwaits onto discusswith the strictnessinwithout enough time, butIthink,canpersuadeLittle Yan Zhito testify, so long asshedeclared that Dragon Kingis the Old King Hangrandchild, can always obtaintrusts of a large number ofprairiepeople, Dragon King......”
“没错,这件事本来不太好证明,可是再巧不过,小阏氏向中原投降了,虽然来不及与严中侍商量,但我想,可以劝说小阏氏作证,只要她宣称龙王是老汗王外孙,总能取得相当一部分草原人的相信,龙王……”Gu Shenweiheard enough, suddenlystands up, the hand-heldhilt, shoutedfierce: „Hasn't inexpensiveslave, been willingto speak the truth?”顾慎为听够了,突然站起身,手扶刀柄,厉声喝道:“贱奴,还不肯说实话吗?”open/stretchYouin a terrified waykneels down, does not knowwhereoneselfhave leaked offsomething that gives one away.
张佑惶恐跪下,不知道自己哪里漏出了马脚。
