Fang Wenshi is uneasy whether sitting or standing, Xu Yanwei is bored to death, Shangguan Ru ponders wear a look, is waiting for Gu Shenwei to brief the Central Plains situation. 方闻是坐立不安,许烟微百无聊赖,上官如面带沉思,都在等着顾慎为介绍中原的情况。 Is placed in front of me has three clues.” Gu Shenwei said, the finger has knocked two on the tabletop, discovers the clue to be numerous and diverse, does not know mentions from where, opposite Shangguan Ru pushes the teacup, Fang Wenshi of left hand complies, like this in front of him altogether has three teacups, therefore he takes up one, this is often waits on Yan Qin, it is said in his hand has a senior emperor to lose the imperial edict, ordering him to exterminate the Gu Clan entire family, does not remain, moreover he indeed had sent the envoy to Jade City, has employed Golden Roc Killer(s).” “摆在我面前的有三条线索。”顾慎为说,手指在桌面上敲了两下,发现头绪繁杂,不知从何说起,对面的上官如将茶杯推过来,左手的方闻是照做,这样他面前共有三只茶杯,于是他拿起一只,“这是中常侍严沁,据说他手里有一份老皇帝遗诏,命令他诛灭顾氏全家,一个不留,而且他的确曾经向璧玉城派过使者,雇用过金鹏杀手。” Yan Qin has taken care three generations of emperors, experiences in Imperial Palace and deliberation hall repeatedly ups and downs, actually can turn danger into safety, obtains trusts, seizes more authorities, sometimes until now said, the emperor age said is long, he also had the sign of losing power. 严沁服侍过三代皇帝,在皇宫与朝堂内经历多次沉浮,却总能化险为夷,获得更多信任,攫取更多权力,时至今曰,皇帝年岁曰长,他又有失势的迹象。 Gu Shenwei obtains the news, the ruling confidence of emperor is getting more and more full, already hoped to arrogate to oneself the imperial authority, dreaded only the dignity of empress dowager, the empress dowager once relied on Yan Qin's help, slowly also always annihilates great slippery authority Huan to have the vigilance to this, but she is quite discrete, with the aid of the influence of maternal home, unites the Imperial Court high-ranking court officials, weakens Yan Qin's authority little, limits it in Imperial Palace gradually. 顾慎为得到消息,皇帝的执政信心越来越足,早就希望独揽皇权,唯独忌惮皇太后的威严,皇太后一度非常依赖严沁的帮助,慢慢地也对这位老歼巨滑的权宦产生戒心,但她比较谨慎,借助娘家的势力,联合朝中重臣,一点点削弱严沁的权力,逐步将其局限在皇宫之内。 Yan Qin sharp nose, begins to respond to the challenge very much long time ago, six years ago, he sends one to castrate to wait on open/stretch You to Western Region, wants to win over Dragon King, even wants certificate Dragon King is the illegitimate child of emperor first, has the right to inherit the throne. 严沁嗅觉灵敏,很早就着手应对挑战,六年前,他向西域派去一名阉侍张佑,想要拉拢龙王,甚至愿意证明龙王是先帝的私生子,有权继承皇位。 His goal does not certainly support a new emperor, but wants increases some external pressures to now the emperor as well as the empress dowager, thus firmly has the authority to lay the foundation for oneself. 他的目的当然不是重新扶持一位新皇帝,而是想给当今皇帝以及皇太后增加一些外部压力,从而为自己牢牢掌握权力奠定基础。 Gu Shenwei had not been swindled at that time, after arriving at Central Plains, Yan Qin is one of the he with emphasis attention characters, all sorts of signs showed, often waits on has not lost heart, but changed has won over the goal. 顾慎为当时没有上当,来到中原之后,严沁是他重点关注的人物之一,种种迹象显示,中常侍并未死心,只是改变了拉拢目标。 „After Northern Court Little Yan Zhi surrenders, obtains a territory, situated in the north, partly plows half herd, these years the population growth are many, just like became important protective screen that contends with the Northern Court cavalry, naturally, possibly becomes strength that attacks Central Plains. Yan Qin and Little Yan Zhi have correspondence intercourse in secret, their general plans spread the rumor, claimed that the senior emperor in the past had the secret affection in Northern Court and Little Yan Zhi, gave birth to one, has placed in the middle of some prairie tribe.” 北庭小阏氏投降之后获得一块领地,位于北方,半耕半牧,这些年来人口增长不少,俨然已经成为抗衡北庭骑兵的重要屏障,当然,也可能成为进攻中原的力量。严沁与小阏氏暗中有书信往来,他们的大概计划是散布流言,声称老皇帝当年在北庭小阏氏有过秘密恋情,产下一子,一直寄养某个草原部落当中。” Fang Wenshi understood Yan Qin's plan, but his doubts, in Yan Qin hand are grasping the losing imperial edict of senior emperor, the empress dowager and emperor are very possible to from him seek help to counter-attack the rumor, what advantage but can Little Yan Zhi obtain? Offends the emperor to her status is very disadvantageous.” 方闻是明白了严沁的计划,可他有一个疑惑,“严沁手里掌握着老皇帝的遗诏,皇太后与皇帝很可能要向他求助以反击流言,可是小阏氏能从中得到什么好处呢?得罪皇帝对她的地位可是非常不利。” Gu Shenwei puts down the teacup, is pointing at own head, Little Yan Zhi wants my head/number of people, she must revenge for the sincere prince, Yan Qin probably gave her to promise.” 顾慎为放下茶杯,指着自己的脑袋,“小阏氏想要我的人头,她要为多敦王子报仇,严沁大概给了她许诺。” Gu Shenwei takes up the second teacup, Princess magnificence even is another clue, she with blood elder brother-- is also senior emperor-- has[ ***] sentiment......” 顾慎为拿起第二只茶杯,“华平公主是另一条线索,她跟亲哥哥——也就是老皇帝——有过[***]之情……” The drowsy Xu Yanwei eye emits all of a sudden up, „does the Central Plains imperial family have this matter? I also think, only then my devil father is the bastard.” 昏昏欲睡的许烟微眼睛一下子放出光来,“中原皇室也有这种事?我还以为只有我那死鬼爹是杂种呢。” Fang Wenshi reddens all over the face, Shangguan Instructor sits here, what do you raise these to make?” He has heard the wife long ago being insulted experience, although accepts reluctantly, thought that in her, rather forever no longer did not mention this matter mistakenly. 方闻是满脸通红,“上官教头坐在这儿呢,你提这些做什么?”他听说过妻子早年间的受辱经历,虽然勉强接受,觉得错不在她,却宁愿永远也不再提起此事。 Xu Yanwei was about to get angry, looked at Shangguan Ru one, bore forcefully, small sound said: In the evening tidies up you again.” 许烟微待要发怒,看了上官如一眼,强行忍住,小声道:“晚上再收拾你。” Gu Shenwei continues to narrate: My father in the past was an insider, persuading the senior emperor the princess to marry, two people therefore became enemies. magnificence Princess even also once disguised as thief, was known as that red bat female, in the burglary palace the treasure, is my father solves a case finally, teaches the martial arts palace maid to be forced to commit suicide the princess.” 顾慎为继续讲述:“我父亲当年是知情者,劝说老皇帝将公主嫁出去,两人因此结仇。华平公主还曾经假扮大盗,号称‘红蝠女’,盗窃宫中珍宝,最后也是我父亲破案,向公主传授武功的宫女被迫自杀。” Speaking of red bat female, opposite Shangguan Ru showed a smile, she remembered many past events, the long time to was the memory of ancestors. 说到“红蝠女”,对面的上官如露出一丝微笑,她想起许多往事,久到好像是上辈子的记忆。 Princess wants to kill my father, had sent the envoy to Jade City, moreover she wants to be ruthless, since knows after I had knowledge of her secret, wants to kill me. Although she is the famous princess, has the power and influence in the deliberation hall very much, particularly is close with the east of the river Luo Family village relations, it is said that she and a Luo Family person good was excessive.” “公主想杀我父亲,也曾经向璧玉城派过使者,而且她想赶尽杀绝,自从知道我掌握了她的秘密之后,就更想杀我了。她虽然是名公主,在朝堂中却很有权势,尤其是与河东骆家庄关系密切,据说她与一名骆家人好的过头了。” Xu Yanwei this has perceived finally, hehe has smiled two, turned head to say to Shangguan Ru: This princess is very interesting, the mischievous appearance a little looked like childhood you, moreover...... An appearance a little looks like me.” 许烟微这回终于听进去了,嘿嘿笑了两声,扭头对上官如说:“这个公主挺有意思,淘气的样子有点像小时候的你,另外……一副样子又有点像我。” Young Master Gu has not said, do not interrupt.” Fang Wenshi said discontentedly, he knows so-called another appearance is any meaning, in the past got married, reason that he agreed to accept wife's supervision, an important prerequisite was Xu Yanwei cannot wear the green hat to him, until now, this matter has not occurred. 顾公子还没说完,你别插嘴。”方闻是不满地说,他知道所谓的“另外一副样子”是什么意思,当年成亲的时候,他之所以同意接受妻子的监管,一个重要前提就是许烟微不能给他戴绿帽子,迄今为止,这种事情还没发生过。 Xu Yanwei shuts up, but evening's penalty will aggravate first-grade. 许烟微闭上嘴,但是将晚上的惩罚又加重一等。 Gu Shenwei takes up the third teacup, the hesitant moment opens the mouth, „the empress dowager and her elder brother Great General Pang Ning, I had not clarified their standpoints. It is said the empress also suspected that the senior emperor has the illegitimate child outside, and thinks that I am one of the important suspects, she once wanted to kill me, afterward let it go. At night the day before yesterday, the Kongtong Faction purple crane honorable person entered the palace is an empress dowager who paid a visit, then this morning I turned into the innocent person.” 顾慎为拿起第三只茶杯,犹豫片刻才开口,“皇太后与她的兄长大将军庞宁,我一直没有弄清楚他们的立场。据说皇后也怀疑老皇帝在外面有私生子,并认为我是重要嫌疑人之一,她曾经想要杀我,后来又不了了之。前天晚上,崆峒派的紫鹤真人进宫拜见的就是皇太后,然后今天早晨我变成无罪之人了。” Originally commanded is not the emperor sends.” Fang Wenshi said amazed. “原来谕令不是皇帝发出来的。”方闻是惊诧地说。 „Speaking of the emperor, he is the present biggest crisis, Lin Xiaoshan infiltrates Imperial Palace with one crowd of Killer(s), has killed desolate king heir apparent and not a well-known honored person, some sources said that was emperor.” “说到皇帝,他才是如今最大的危机,林小山与一群杀手混进皇宫,杀死了萧王世子和一位不知名贵人,有消息说那就是皇帝本人。” Fang Wenshi gets up dignified, no wonder the mission to the Capital City ten days, that group of government officials actually had not determined the saying time of calling on, said daily quickly, likely was this reason.” 方闻是神情凝重起来,“怪不得使团到京城都十天了,那群官吏却一直没有确定晋见的曰期,天天说快了,很可能就是这个原因。” What Fang Wenshi cares is the emperor, Xu Yanwei beams from ear to ear, being interested is actually another matter, I know that Dragon King did play the trick in the past, the ginger bewilderedly is assassinated? Then in a while Lin Xiaoshan also died, originally was delivered to Central Plains by you. Is the ginger good?” 方闻是关心的是皇帝,许烟微笑逐颜开,感兴趣的却是另一件事,“我就知道龙王当年玩了花招,姜怎么会莫名其妙遭到暗杀呢?然后没过多久林小山也死了,原来被你送到中原了。姜还好吗?” She has committed suicide, leaves behind a 3 or 4-year-old son, now treats in desolate Palace.” “她自杀了,留下一个三四岁的儿子,如今待在萧王府里。” In the room a peace, these four people knew the ginger that likes blushing, feels sad to her death, particularly Gu Shenwei, because every year only receives a time information, after he is very late, knows the news that Lin Xiaoshan is put in prison, wants to save others at this time again already late. 房间里一片安静,这四个人都认识爱脸红的姜,对她的死感到伤心,尤其是顾慎为,由于每年只接收一次情报,他很晚之后才知道林小山入狱的消息,这时再想救人已经晚了。 After a while, Fang Wenshi first opens the mouth, listens to Young Master Gu saying that the matter also understands but actually, employs Golden Roc Killer(s) instigation is not Yan Qin is the princess, or is they have, the revenging goal is very clear, what do you hesitate?” 过了一会,方闻是首先开口,“听顾公子所言,事情倒也明了,雇用金鹏杀手的主使者不是严沁就是公主,要不就是两人都有份,报仇目标很清楚啊,你还犹豫什么呢?” What reply doubts is Shangguan Ru, she takes out several folding neat paper from the sleeve, puts among the tables, this is in the masonry preserves complete recorded.” Discovered that Fang Wenshi and Xu Yanwei look at themselves, she said: Masonry assassination each time has to record the spirit, ordinary depositing in Whiterobe Academy, special collection, Young Master Gu...... In the past walked, entrusting me to look them.” 回答疑惑的是上官如,她从袖子里取出几张折叠整齐的纸张,放到桌子中间,“这就是石堡里留存的全部记录了。”发现方闻是许烟微看着自己,她说:“石堡的每次暗杀活动都有记灵,普通的存放在白衣院,特殊一些的收藏起来,顾公子……当年走的时候,委托我把它们找出来。” What were you suspecting at that time?” Fang Wenshi has not understood, the clue of revenging was enough, Gu Shenwei wants these records to have what using. “你那时在怀疑什么?”方闻是还是没有明白,报仇的线索已经足够了,顾慎为要这些记录能有何用。 My father is the conduct very discrete person.” Gu Shenwei had not received that several papers immediately, I have not remembered the past matter, but the father decided that moves to Western Region entire family, definitely after thinking, he chose a very strange place to settle down, west situated in Golden Roc Castle beyond boundary, the edge in Shu Le country's, if has not obtained some security guarantees, his procedure was too negligent.” “我父亲是个行事十分谨慎的人。”顾慎为没有马上接过那几张纸,“我已经不记得当年的事情了,可是父亲决定将全家迁往西域,肯定经过深思熟虑,他选择了一个很奇怪的地方安家,位于金鹏堡西境以外、疏勒国的边缘,如果没有得到某种安全保证,他的做法就太大意了。” Gu Shenwei long before had similar doubts, increases along with the story, the doubts also gradually deepen, after returning to Central Plains, he also inquired that many father's past events, even more thought the position of Gu Clan manor elects not well, the back must have the reason. 顾慎为很早以前就有过类似的疑惑,随着阅历增多,疑惑也逐渐加深,回到中原之后,他也打听到不少父亲的往事,越发觉得顾氏庄园的位置选得不好,背后必有原因。 Shangguan Ru supplemented, Golden Roc Castle everybody has not imagined nothing which is not fears, I have looked at for dozens years record, discovered that has a person is all previous Supreme King little moves extremely, that is Northern Court and Central Plains official, even if the official who draws back does not bump, therefore the father is willing to accept to assassinate the Gu Clan duty in the past, absolutely is the unusual decision.” 上官如加以补充,“金鹏堡没有大家想象得那么无所不惧,我查看过数十年来的记录,发现有一种人是历代独步王极少触碰的,那就是北庭中原的官员,即使是退下来的官员也不碰,所以父亲当年肯接受暗杀顾氏的任务,绝对是反常的决定。” Gu Shenwei takes that several papers, opened glanced over, right, Yan Qin and princess successively sent out the envoy, hoped to employ Golden Roc Killer(s), but the Supreme King initial written comment was improper, was after two days of considerations, he will make written comments changes to may kill.” 顾慎为拿过那几张纸,打开浏览了一遍,“没错,严沁和公主先后派出使者,希望雇用金鹏杀手,可是独步王最初的批示是‘不妥’,可是经过两天的考虑之后,他将批示改为‘可杀’。” Perhaps Supreme King has thought through, thought that this is a business of being profitable.” Fang Wenshi guesses to say. “或许独步王就是想通了,觉得这是一件有利可图的生意。”方闻是猜道。 But Golden Roc Castle has not obtained many profits.” Shangguan Ru has read the massive materials, was more familiar with the past situation, my father dispatched troops into battle, the strength that replied on first was Northern Court, defeated after Prince, he requested reinforcements to Central Plains, even if this, the help of Central Plains were also undecided.” “可金鹏堡并没有从中得到多少益处。”上官如阅读过大量资料,对当年的情况更加熟悉,“我父亲起兵的时候,最先借助的力量是北庭,直到罗罗王子战败之后,他才向中原求援,即使这样,中原的帮助也三心二意的。” Therefore among very likely had certain matters, Supreme King therefore thought that may kill.” The investigation of Gu Shenwei here has met the dense fog, „the news that currently obtains from me looked, Yan Qin and princess the hesitation of messenger's to Supreme King does not know, changes his mind inevitably is another person or another matter.” “所以中间很可能发生了某些事情,独步王因此才觉得‘可杀’。”顾慎为的调查就是在这里遇到了迷雾,“从我目前得到的消息看,严沁与公主的使者对独步王的犹豫毫无所知,改变他主意的必然是另一个人或另一件事。” Supreme King Shangguan Fa is clearest, but he died, even if living, he will not leak the secret personally. 独步王上官伐对此最清楚,可他已经死了,即使活着,他也绝不会亲口泄露秘密。 Xu Yanwei hears once more blurry, has had a yawn, said: Is so troublesome, did you work to interrogate and torture one Yan Qin and princess not to know? Perhaps they did not feel relieved, bypassed envoy also the faction people to persuade Supreme King.” 许烟微再次听得迷迷糊糊,打了个哈欠,说:“这么麻烦,你把严沁和公主抓起来拷问一番不就知道了?没准他们不放心,绕过使者又派别人去劝说独步王了。” This is the idea that does not need seriously to treat, therefore no one has answered, Fang Wenshi raised the head saying: Therefore this group of Golden Roc Killer(s) specially are important, definitely is the Central Plains person invites them, perhaps since this person familiar Killer(s), were the past years affects the Supreme King person.” 这是一个无需认真对待的主意,所以谁也没有搭腔,方闻是抬头说:“所以这拨金鹏杀手就特别重要,肯定是中原人把他们请来的,这个人既然熟悉杀手,没准就是当年影响独步王的人。” Right. I must discover these Killer(s) as well as their masters, the empress dowager and purple crane honorable person have the similar idea, for this reason, we will collaborate temporarily.” “没错。我必须找出这些杀手以及他们的主人,皇太后和紫鹤真人也有同样的想法,因为这个原因,我们会暂时联手。” What needs me to make?” Fang Wenshi is excited, can negotiate with the empress? I ensure can gain the maximum benefit for you.” “需要我做什么?”方闻是兴奋起来,“要跟皇后谈判吗?我保证能为你争取到最大利益。” I told you these, wants to say a matter.” Gu Shenwei looks at these three people, they from thousand li (500 km), six years ago arrives in front of him, should not take risk for him again, you could not help me temporarily, as the guest, you must stay out, do not give person an excuse to injure others, the empress dowager has not trusted me completely, I did not trust him.” “我告诉你们这些,就是想说一件事。”顾慎为看着这三个人,他们从千里之外、从六年之前来到他面前,不应该再为他冒险,“你们暂时帮不了我,作为客人,你们要置身事外,不要授人以柄,皇太后还没有完全信任我,我也不信任他。” The Fang Wenshi whole face is disappointed, Shangguan Ru and Xu Yanwei also show the accidental/surprised expression. 方闻是满脸失望,上官如许烟微也露出意外的表情。 At this time resounded the knock, outside clear and bright male voice said: Shangguan Instructor, came a guest, wants to see Dragon King.” 这时响起敲门声,外面一个清朗的男子声音说:“上官教头,来了一位客人,想见龙王。” „The persuasive speaker of empress dowager.” Gu Shenwei guesses saying that then he uses the split vision to see the diagonally opposite Xu Yanwei disdain to curl the lip, from this knows that outside man was the Shangguan Ru adorer.( To be continued.) “皇太后的说客。”顾慎为猜道,接着他用余光看见斜对面的许烟微不屑地撇嘴,由此知道外面的这名男子就是上官如的爱慕者了。(未完待续。)
