The slender white hands stretch out slowly, tried to find out under that shrine several, then listen to crash-bang the light sound. By the shrine the wall separated from the middle, reveals a stone door. 安碧如忍俊不禁,半羞半恼的白了他一眼。纤纤玉手缓缓伸出,在那神龛下面摸索了几下,便听哗啦轻响。神龛旁地墙壁从中间分开了,露出个石门。 „Well, has mechanism?!” He has a big shock, anxious jumps to Elder Sister An nearby, takes advantage of opportunity holds her hand tightly. Opens the eye saying: „elder sister feared not, I protect you!” “咦,有机关？！”他大惊失色,急急跳到安姐姐身边,顺势紧抓住她的手。睁大眼睛道:“姐姐莫怕,我来保护你！” An Biru is funny, in his palm twisted ruthlessly under. Snort said: „Who protects whose also really not good to say!” 安碧如好笑在他手心狠拧了下。哼道:“谁保护谁还真不好说呢！” Her lotus steps slow-action. Lithe stepped over the threshold. Lin Wanrong follows proximally in her behind. 她莲步缓动。轻盈的迈过了门槛。林晚荣寸步不离地跟在她身后。 Crossing the threshold is actually a rock cave, deep cuts in the dike, taking advantage of the house projecting over the water shield. extremely hiding, front reveals the pale yellow light faintly, but can also hear people talk the words sound. 入门却是个石窟,深挖在岩壁中,借着吊脚楼的掩护。极为隐蔽,前面隐隐露出片昏黄的灯光,还能听见人说话的声音。 Elder Sister An is then looking at him charmingly, hee hee said: „Remembered, must be careful speech Oh!” 安姐姐回头妩媚望着他,嘻嘻道:“记住了,要小心说话哦！” Be careful? What is careful? Lin Wanrong gawked. But sees Elder Sister An smile such as a flower. Already when advanced. 小心？小心什么？林晚荣愣了愣。但见安姐姐笑颜如花。已当先行了进去。 „See Sacred Aunt!” In stone room explodes a neat and respectful sound suddenly, Lin Wanrong raises one's head, but saw in the room to gather 78 Miaoan old man, is bending the waist to An Biru salutes. age longest, is to make him come this white beard Han Nong, stands in the forefront. That accompanies respectfully end the place, to look at young one, is actually Yi Lian dad and Lunar Reflection Perch red Miao Village lord Bu Yi. “参见圣姑！”石室里忽然爆起一阵整齐而恭敬的声音,林晚荣伸头进去,但见屋内聚集了七八个苗家老头,正弯着腰向安碧如行礼。年纪最长地,就是引他来此的白胡子寒侬,站在最前面。那敬陪末座、看着最年轻地一位,却是依莲地阿爹、映月坞地红苗寨主布依。 Bu Yi body is travel-worn. The cloth shoes have opened the mouth, face grey stain has not wiped with enough time. Seemed like the long journey to catch up with good in a hurry. He stands in most end. look is excited. also somewhat is cramped, both hands closely grips, does not know where toward put. 布依身上风尘仆仆。布鞋已开了口,脸上的灰渍还未来得及擦去。似乎是行了远路匆匆赶来的。他站在最末尾。神色激动。却又有些局促,双手紧紧握住,都不知往哪里放了。 „various uncles does not need to be polite!” An Biru smiles gracefully. The vision has swept in people body, falls to Bu Yi body, the immediately nod said: „This is Lunar Reflection Perch Uncle Bu Yi?! Has heard your great reputation!” “诸位阿叔不必客气！”安碧如落落大方地微笑。目光在众人身上扫过,落到布依身上,顿时点头道:“这位就是映月坞的布依阿叔么？！早就听说你的大名了！” The father excited beard trembles, grips the hatchet to bow to salute: „Bu Yi see Sacred Aunt!” 老爹激动的胡子直颤,握住柴刀躬身行礼:“布依参见圣姑！” An Biru shakes the head with a smile: „Uncle does not need to stand on ceremony, you are the Lunar Reflection Perch leader, astute competent. Of noble character and high prestige, is well-known in Miao Township, Great Elder Han Nong recommends you to enter Council of Elders, is name will follow reality! For these days at the same night hurried along, laborious uncle!” 安碧如笑着摇头:“阿叔不必拘礼,你是映月坞的领头人,精明能干。德高望重,在苗乡人尽皆知,寒侬大长老推荐你入长老会,乃是实至名归！这几天连夜赶路,辛苦阿叔了！” Originally in this room old man is the Miao Township elder, Miaoan all important important matters must discuss the decision by them, no wonder Elder Sister An said that the ancestral temple is the Miaoan most important place. But Father Bu Yi should receive the notice to join a society couple days ago, this rushes to Five Lotus Peak to come travel-worn. 原来这屋子里地老头都是苗乡地长老,苗家的所有重要大事都要由他们商议决定,难怪安姐姐说祠堂是苗家最重要的地方呢。而布依老爹应该是前几天才接到通知入会,这才风尘仆仆赶到五莲峰来的。 The middle fierce appearance big chair, supposes the position for the leader, An Biru takes a seat slowly, the everyone/various elder then divided in the two sides sits down. 正中间的虎皮大椅,是为头领所设的位置,安碧如缓缓落座,各位长老这才分在两边坐下了。 In the room by clamoring to be transferred peacefully, the people sat, discovered that also stood a person, immediately is gathering vision simultaneously at his body. 屋里由喧哗转为安静,众人坐好了,才发现中间还站着一人,顿时把目光齐齐聚集在了他身上。 „various uncles, hello, hello!” Was eyed covetously to size up by so many old man, the facial skin cannot shoulder again thick, Lin Wanrong quickly cups the fists, four sides is greeting all round. “诸位阿叔,你们好,你们好！”被这么多老头虎视眈眈的打量,脸皮再厚也扛不住啊,林晚荣急忙团团抱拳,四面打着招呼。 In the everyone/various elder, knows him, on Uncle Han Nong and Father Bu Yi, two people is not happy to his impression. Others, is dumbfounded, looked at for quite a while, has elder sudden enlightenment: „Oh, I thought that you hit the horse to win Za Guo that Red Miao miduo a moment ago!” 诸位长老中,认识他地,也就寒侬阿叔和布依老爹,二人对他的印象还都不怎么美好。其余人等,则是大眼瞪小眼,看了半天,才有一位长老恍然大悟:“哦,我想起来了,你是刚才打马赢了扎果地那个红苗咪多！” This saying, people immediately thought that observing closely his vision instantly were many several points of zeal. 这一说,众人顿时想起来了,盯住他地目光刹那就多了几分热忱。 „Ashamed, ashamed,” Lin Wanrong hurried cups the fists, lowers the head embarrassed: „Uncle, your looks such benign countenance and temperate honest, like elderly person resembles, the boy does not dare to deceive you! Actually, I am not Red Miao miduo, I called Lin San, from capital, was Hua'an!” “惭愧,惭愧,”林晚荣急忙抱拳,不好意思地低下头去:“阿叔,您长得这么慈眉善目、温和敦厚,就像个老寿星似的,小子不敢欺骗您！其实,我不是红苗咪多,我叫林三,来自京城,是个华家人！” „Hua'an?” The everyone/various elder heard, at once gets angry: „You, since is Hua'an, runs up to this Flowerhill Festival to do? Also uncanny happy does , wear the Red Miao clothes, what you actually has to scheme?” “华家人？”诸位长老听得愣了,旋即怒道:“你既然是个华家人,跑到这花山节上来干什么？还鬼鬼樂樂的,穿上红苗地衣裳,你到底有什么图谋？” The elders to Hua'an does not have many favorable impressions, are speaking obviously angrily, Lin Wanrong quickly peeps An Biru, actually sees the Elder Sister An happy expression to recite to look at him, keeps silent, pours to resemble outsider general. 长老们显然对华家人没有多少好感,说着话就已愤怒了起来,林晚荣急忙偷看安碧如一眼,却见安姐姐笑意吟吟的望着他,不言不语,倒似个局外人一般。 The Lin Wanrong eye illness/quick winks, sudden enlightenment: This Miaoan Council of Elders, obvious was the Elder Sister An wife's relatives, she directed me, was the wool foot son-in-law visits , helping look at the wife's relatives! only looks at these elders to the Hua'an attitude, matter perhaps is not that easy to do ! 林晚荣眼睛疾眨,恍然大悟:这苗家长老会,明摆着就是安姐姐的娘家人了,她将我引进来,就是毛脚女婿上门,成不成全看娘家人了！只是看这些长老对华家人的态度,事情恐怕不是那么好办的！ His thoughts revolve like lightning, is smiling beckoning with the hand: „various uncles misunderstood, I put on Miaoan attire , because I like becoming friends with Miaoan brothers and sisters.” 他心思电转,微笑着摆手:“诸位阿叔误会了,我穿上苗装,是因为我喜欢和苗家的兄弟姐妹交朋友。” „Do you like becoming friends with us? Bah, the wizard believes!” An elder said indignantly: „ Hua'an each one sinister deceitful, on the mouth said one set. heart thinks one set, our these hundred li (0.5 km) Miao Township, “你喜欢和我们交朋友？呸,鬼才相信！”一个长老愤愤道:“华家人个个阴险狡诈,嘴上说一套。心里想一套,我们这百里苗乡, Day situation. The countrymen cannot eat meal and wear the non- coat. All does obeisance the family member to bestow! ” 天这个地步。乡亲们吃不上饭、穿不上衣。就全拜家人所赐！” „Right. Hua'an not one good thing!” Several elders also yelled, in stone room immediately clamored. “对。华家人没有一个好东西！”几个长老同时大叫,石室中顿时喧哗起来。 Xùzhou is the Three Rivers connection place. Beautiful scenery, outstanding individual earth deities. If governs well, should be the Chuanshu (Sichuan) wealthy treasure trove. Pitifully only far clear occupied in this for many years. Sybaritism. Extorting taxes ruthlessly. So that accumulated grievances ebullition and people have no means to make a living. Will have among today Hua and Miao the deep barrier. It may be said that mouse excrement. Went bad pot soup. 叙州乃是三江交汇地。山清水秀、人杰地灵。若治理地好,本应是川蜀地富裕宝地。只可惜远清在此盘踞多年。骄奢淫逸。横征暴敛。以致积怨沸腾、民不聊生。才会有今日华苗之间地深深隔阂。真可谓一颗老鼠屎。坏了一锅汤。 Lin Wanrong shakes the head silently. Sighed: „various uncles. I understand your mood. In fact. I also acknowledged. Hua'an really has those clothes eating insects. They lawless, are domineering and tyrannical, terrorize men and take their women and damage a side. Created to everyone greatly injured. Regarding like this bastard. Everything has the conscience person. Incomparable hatred, Miaoan countrymen so. Hua'an common people also however.” 林晚荣默默摇头。叹道:“诸位阿叔。我理解你们地心情。事实上。我也承认。华家地确有那么些蛀虫。他们无法无天、横行霸道、欺男霸女、为害一方。给大家造成了巨大地伤害。对于这样地坏蛋。凡是有良知地人。都会无比的憎恨,苗家地乡亲如此。华家地百姓亦然。” Great Elder Han Nong snort/hum sound said: „Since you yourself acknowledged that Hua'an has the unprincipled person. What did that add?!” 寒侬大长老哼了声道:“既然你自己都承认华家有坏人。那还说些什么？！” „Hua'an has the unprincipled person is not false, is. A person is bad. Is the could it be entire Hua'an nationality an unprincipled person?!” He sighs with emotion: „Invited Great Elder and various uncles thinks. This Xùzhou is Hua and Miao two families coexisted. Usually in goes to the market with your practical training. Also there are many ordinary Hua'an common people. could it be are they unpardonably wicked the unprincipled person? Proceeded to push again for 100 year and in 1000. Our Hua and Miao two families could it be continuously such barrier. does not have mutual help and harmonious coexistence?! In the past the two families ancestor kissed like brother. Why to today. We instead also and not on ancestors?” “华家有坏人不假,可是。一人坏。难道整个华家民族就都是坏人？！”他感慨道:“请大长老和各位阿叔想一想。这叙州本是华苗两家共居。平日里和你们一起劳作赶集地。也有许多地普通华家百姓。难道他们都是十恶不赦地坏人？再往前推一百年、一千年。我们华苗两家难道就一直这样隔阂。没有互相扶助、和谐共处过？！当年两家地祖先亲如兄弟。为何到了今天。我们反而还及不上先人？” His places asked. Is lost in thought with the everyone/various elders coldly. An Biru is looking at him affectionately. The eyes appearance flashes. 他一声声地发问。寒和诸位长老都陷入沉思。安碧如脉脉望着他。眼中神采闪动。 „Good. Hua'an really has the good person!” An elder snort/hum sound: „But. That bullies us. Also is your Hua'an! How this did also say?” “不错。华家确实有好人！”一位长老哼了声:“可是。那欺负我们地。也是你们华家人！这又怎么说？” „Right, how can this say?” Several elders echo to say with one voice. “对啊,这要怎么说？”几位长老齐声附和道。 Lin Wanrong shakes the head slightly: „I know that everyone heart thinks, Xùzhou Prefect Nie Yuanqing. Truly is not the good thing, he accepts bribes the fraud and fish meat native place. Is our Hua'an shame. However Miao Township acting leader Za Guo. Certain acts also made a person of not shame similarly! But could it be because had/left this two people. Do we want to deny the entire China or the entire Miao Clan common people good? A person of fault. How can the calamity and countrymen?!” 林晚荣微微摇头:“我知道大家心里所想,叙州府尹聂远清。确实不是什么好东西,他贪墨舞弊、鱼肉乡里。是我们华家地耻辱。但是苗乡地代头领扎果。某些行径也同样令人不耻！可难道就因为出了这两个人。我们就要否定整个华族或者整个苗族普通百姓地善良？一人之过。怎能祸及乡亲？！” He selected Nie Yuanqing and Za Guo name directly. Big of courage is astonishing. The everyone/various elder hears to look at each other in blank dismay. Cannot clarify this to disguise as Red Miao miduo. actually is what background! 他直接点出了聂远清和扎果地名字。胆子之大令人吃惊。诸位长老听得面面相觑。弄不清这个假扮地红苗咪多。到底是个什么来头！ „Illuminates your meaning. Hua'an is the good person are many. Good person does not have is wrong!” Father Bu Yi is looking at him. Coldly opens the mouth saying: „But our Miao Village folks. Was forced to have no way out by Hua'an these clothes eating insects. This what to do?” “照你地意思。华家是好人多。好人都没有错！”布依老爹望着他。冷冷开口道:“可是我们苗寨地父老乡亲。被华家那些蛀虫逼迫地无路可走。这怎么办？” The Bu Yi vision sizes up in his face. Could not say angrily. 布依地目光打量在他脸上。说不出地恼怒。 This is Yi Lian dad, the oneself body clothes, is his getting married time passes through, was Yi Lian that girl implores urgently for one night to borrow to her mom. Lin Wanrong heart has the shame. How dare also looks at each other with him, quickly retracts to go: „Asked Father Bu Yi to feel relieved, everything damaged Hua and Miao common people dog thief. Some people tidy up surely! The time will not be remote. Perhaps is close at hand!” 这是依莲地阿爹,自己身上地衣裳,就是他成亲时候穿过地,是依莲那丫头向她阿母苦苦哀求了一夜才借来的。林晚荣心中有愧。又怎敢与他对视,急忙缩回头去:“请布依老爹放心,凡是祸害华苗百姓地狗贼。必定有人收拾！时间不会久远。也许就近在眼前！” Uncle Han Nong is shaking the head, coldly smiled and said: „How tidied up also? Walked one. Can come one again. You can guarantee. Next place Sir Prefect certainly fair incorruptible?! No matter what that one after next? Again downward?!” 寒侬阿叔摇着头,冷冷笑道:“收拾了又怎样？走了一个。可以再来一个。你敢保证。下一任地府台大人就一定会公正清廉？！那下下任呢？再往下呢？！” Great Elder really is of noble character and high prestige. The experience is extraordinary, this language is saying on the idea. everyone/various elder simultaneously nods. 大长老果然是德高望重。见识非凡,这一语正说在点子上。诸位长老齐齐点头。 Lin Wanrong gives the thumbs-up, praised heartfeltly: „Uncle Han Nong is great, this issue asked well! You said well. If only wanting to pin on benevolent official body, they incorruptible, could give the Xùzhou common people to bring a position auspicious day, actually cannot control for a lifetime.” 林晚荣竖起大拇指,由衷赞道:“寒侬阿叔了不起,这个问题问地好！你说地不错。如果只把希望寄托在一任父母官身上,他们地清廉,或许能给叙州百姓带来一阵地好日子,却管不了一辈子。” „What solution do you have?” The this time opens the mouth speech place, is actually Sacred Aunt. She is looking at Lin Wanrong anxiously. look throws throws the illness/quick to flash. “那你有什么解决办法？”这一次开口说话地,却是圣姑。她急切地望着林晚荣。眼神扑哧扑哧疾闪。 Your this seductress. finally couldn't bear?! Places the summit wave to withstand/top me, no matter what your wife's relatives asked, did not fear I let slip by some chance. Was given to hit?! What to do when the time comes looks at you! His more thinks is more annoyed. Indignant snort/hum sound, cast the head to the side: „Temporarily returns couldn't think!” 你这骚狐狸。终于忍不住了？！把我放在峰尖浪顶上,任你娘家人问,就不怕我万一失手。被人给打出来？！到时候看你怎么办！他越想越恼火。愤愤哼了声,偏过头去:“暂时还没想到！” „Right?” An Biru laughs: „That was a pity. Originally I heard that desert female Khan is poisoned, but also wants to have a look at-” “是吗？”安碧如嘻嘻一笑:“那太可惜了。本来我听说大漠地一位女可汗中了毒,还想去看看呢——” „Thought, thought!” Lin Wanrong immediately beams with joy. “想到了,想到了！”林晚荣顿时眉开眼笑。 Elder Sister An stares his one eyes ruthlessly, giggle said: „That female Khan actually mysterious character, asking you to think that such rapidness, my also pondered over to many to your some time!” 安姐姐狠狠瞪他一眼,咯咯道:“那女可汗倒是个神奇人物,叫你想地如此之快,我本还思忖要多给你些时间呢！” Sacred Aunt look is charming, that sour odor was actually hearing lightly, Lin Wanrong does not dare to do right after something else clearly, hurried say/way: „Solves this matter, is actually not difficult, can beside Xùzhou Prefect, suppose Miaoan Council of Elders again, immobilizes with Prefect mutually!” 圣姑神色妩媚,那淡淡地酸味却闻着清楚地很,林晚荣不敢接茬,急忙道:“解决这个事情么,其实也不难,可以在叙州府尹之外,再设一个苗家长老议事团,与府尹相互钳制！” „Miaoan Council of Elders?!” This name is new enough, the people hear without exception to be astounded. An Biru is angry saying: „What is this, you said quickly!” “苗家长老议事团？！”这个称呼够新鲜,众人听得无不瞠目。安碧如嗔道:“这是什么意思,你快说！” „So-called Council of Elders, in the entire Xùzhou range, Miaoan oneself selects seven to eight elders, is unified to lead, to enter the mansion alley by the Miao Township headman to discuss official business, implements in the state Miao Township autonomous. All related to the Miaoan range inland business, the agriculture and business, educates all sort and wait/etc., by the Miaoan oneself discussion decision, reports again to Prefect orders to implement. Besides the central policy can not resist, any to the Miaoan implementation new deal, must put forward the bill by Prefect, hands over by the discussing official business group discussed that through can implement. Otherwise, does not carry out! The mansion alley and discussing official business group immobilize mutually, if with the proposal by otherwise, both sides had the difference unable to compromise, may hand over by Sichuan-Shaanxi Viceroy decides. unresigned, reported Imperial Court again, by the Emperor wise judgment!” “所谓长老议事团,就是在全叙州范围内,苗家自己选出七到八位长老,由苗乡头人统一带领,进入府衙议事,实行州内苗乡自治。所有涉及苗家范围内地事务,农业、商贸、教育诸般等等,都由苗家人自己商议决定,再报至府台下令实施。除中央政策不得抗拒外,任何对苗家实施地新政,必须由府台提出议案,交由议事团讨论通过才能实施。否则,不予执行！府衙与议事团互相钳制,若遇提案被否,双方产生分歧无法调和,可交由川陕督抚定夺。不服者,再上报朝廷,由皇帝明断！” „This, this-” Han Nong, Bu Yi and the others heard the heart to jump, Elder Sister An was much more pleasantly surprised. The Little Brother thoughts do not know that is how long, he proposed that this Council of Elders, simply is half Prefect! “这,这——”寒侬、布依等人听得心都跳出来了,安姐姐更是惊喜得呆了。小弟弟地心思不知是怎么长地,他提出地这个长老议事团,简直就是半个府台啊！
