In the morning, the weather has shone, Cangzhou state city, on bumpy and uneven street, not many pedestrians. 清晨,天色已亮,沧州州城,坑坑洼洼、凹凸不平的街道上,并没有多少行人。 Cangzhou is not a Dazhou, the population were not many, because in the two years the even more makes ominous bandit and chaos caused by war, the entire city emptied half. 沧州本来就不是一个大州,人口不多,这两年因为闹得越发凶的匪盗和战乱,整座城池都空了一半。 Some people died, some people fled from calamity elsewhere, still kept the common people in Cangzhou, or hated to leave one's native land, did not have the members of the same family to go for shelter, lived in Cangzhou, is rather struggling to assign/life with the day. 有的人死了,有的人逃难去了别处,依然留在沧州的百姓,或是故土难离,或是没有亲族可以投奔,与其说是在沧州生活,不如说是在与天争命。 By the vegetable stall of street, a passing by woman stopped the footsteps, is conducting the arm the shopping basket, after being choosy, asked: „How does your radish sell?” 街边的菜摊旁,一名路过的妇人停下脚步,挎着菜篮,挑挑拣拣之后,问道:“你这萝卜怎么卖？” The vendors sit in the stone steps, gains ground, said: „Two coin one jin (0.5 kg).” 摊主坐在石阶上,抬了抬头,说道:“两文钱一斤。” „Two coin?” The woman of homespun cloth clothes frowns, said: „Yesterday was coin!” “两文钱？”粗布衣服的妇人皱起眉头,说道:“昨天还是一文钱呢！” The vendors shot a look at her, said lightly: „Yesterday the master also only received five coin occupies path money, today receives ten coin!” 摊主瞥了瞥她,淡淡道:“昨天官老爷还只收五文钱的占路钱,今天就收十文钱了！” One jin (0.5 kg) radish long time of price, one month of expenses, half a month will use up now, the woman conducts the arm the shopping basket panting in indignation, said: „I have a look at other again!” 一斤萝卜长一倍的价钱,原本一个月的开销,现在半个月就会用完,妇人气呼呼的挎起菜篮,说道:“我再看看别家的！” She circled from the street, once again walks, the complexion thoroughly broke down. 她从街上绕了一圈,再次走回来的时候,脸色就彻底垮了下来。 „This where is drinks the blood to eat the meat, they must even the bone break to swallow, this day, soon cannot have!” “这哪里是喝血吃肉,他们是要连骨头都砸碎了咽下去,这日子,快要过不下去了！” „Who said the vendor who......” does not sell the vegetable/dish also sighed finally, said: „Cangzhou by these instead very occupied the time, those who are bitter is common people, now Cangzhou was seized by the government authorities, are the bitter common people, this hard times, when a head?” “谁说不是呢……”卖菜的摊主也终于叹了口气,说道:“沧州被那些反贼占了的时候,苦的是百姓,如今沧州被官府夺回来了,苦的还是百姓,这苦日子,什么时候才是个头？” The women think, said: „That not necessarily is not good, first two years of Princess Duanrong in Cangzhou, is not good, oh, what a pity......” 妇人想了想,说道:“那也不一定都不好,前两年端蓉公主在沧州的时候,一切不都挺好的,唉,可惜……” The vendor actually remembered anything probably, suddenly said: „I couple of days ago heard, Your Highness Princess must return......” 那摊主却像是想起了什么,忽然说道:“我前两天听人说,公主殿下要打回来了……” The women put down the shopping basket, mystical saying: „I also heard, Princess Duanrong makes the Emperor life since childhood , like next door Jing State that Princess, later must become Female Emperor......” 妇人放下菜篮,神神秘秘的说道:“我也听说,端蓉公主从小就是做皇帝的命,是和隔壁景国那位公主一样,以后要成为女皇的……” Two people said mystically a meeting, the vendor waves, said: „Sister-in-law, I thought that you and I also very chatted come, this was the fate, this, this vegetable/dish, I sold to you today, was yesterday's price......” 两个人神神秘秘的说了一会,那摊主挥了挥手,说道:“大嫂,我看你和我也挺聊得来的,这都是缘分,这样吧,今天这菜,我卖给你,还是昨天的价……” „That sentiment good......” on woman face to show the smile, said: „Today I may result in select!” “那感情好……”妇人脸上露出笑容,说道:“今天我可得多挑一点！” She selected the vegetable/dish of entire basket, gives that vendor, said: „Weighs.” 她挑了整整一篮子的菜,递给那摊主,说道:“称称吧。” After the vendors weigh, said: „Altogether 20 two coin, wipe an odd change to you, was good to 20 articles.” 摊主称了称之后,说道:“一共二十二文钱,给你抹个零头,给二十文好了。” The women pull out the purse, counted the copper coin, gave him, said: „You count.” 妇人掏出荷包,数了铜钱,递给他,说道:“你数一数。” The vendors smile, tramples the bosom the money for vegetables, said: „Number did not need to count, the sister-in-law you can also deceive me inadequately......” 摊主笑了笑,将菜钱踹到怀里,说道:“数就不用数了,难道大嫂你还能骗我不成……” „That becomes, I first went back!” The women wave to him, the vegetable stall booth opinion she disappears, will immediately hold the bosom money to count the number, even if little gives two articles not to relate, because the money for vegetables is 20 articles, he added an odd change, wiped an odd change...... “那成,我先回去了！”妇人对他挥了挥手,菜摊摊主见她消失,立刻将揣回怀里的钱又数了数,就算少给两文也没关系,因为菜钱本来就是二十文,他加了个零头,又抹了个零头…… Counted two, in looks to begin ten eight coin, the vendor is lost in thought. 数了两遍,看着手里的十八文钱,摊主陷入了沉思。 He sighed, mores of society are declining daily, the young heart in the old days, the present person, is dark including two coin money for vegetables, Cangzhou simple and honest common social practice, by these people ruining...... 他叹了口气,世风日下,人心不古,现在的人,连两文钱的菜钱都要昧,沧州淳朴的民风,就是被这些人给败坏掉的…… At this time, walked, while the man of belt walked, asked: „Old Wang, did some people do grocery shopping a moment ago?” 这时,一位一边走路,一边勒裤腰带的男人走过来,问道:“老王,刚才有人来买菜没有？” The youth vendor these money trample in the bosom, stands up, beckons with the hand, said: „No, came a sister-in-law actually, selected for a long time vegetable/dish, afterward disliked expensively, does not buy......” 青年摊主将那些钱踹在怀里,站起身,摆了摆手,说道:“没有,倒是来了一个大嫂,挑了好久的菜,后来又嫌贵,不买了……” „Oh, this I do not want to rise, but if does not rise, this money for vegetables, but all gave the government authorities, you said them, how cannot study study beforehand Princess Duanrong......” man to sigh, visits him, felt grateful: „Yesterday ate badly the belly, thank you helped me look at the outdoor shop......” “唉,这我也不想涨啊,可要是不涨,这点菜钱,可就全交给官府了,你说他们,怎么就不能学学以前的端蓉公主……”男人叹了口气,看着他,感激道:“昨天吃坏了肚子,谢谢你帮我看摊子……” „Impolite......” that youth stands up, beckons with the hand, said: „Slight effort......” “不客气……”那青年站起身,摆了摆手,说道:“举手之劳而已……” After the youth leave, the man breaks off the finger to calculate, muttered: „Today is an auspicious day......” 青年离开之后,那男子掰着手指头算了算,喃喃道:“今儿个是个好日子……” He tidied up the vegetable stall early, goes home, urged the wife and children to look after the house well, oneself walked out of the door, circled several streets and alleys, before arriving at a deep dwelling gate time, buckled three gates gently, said in a low voice: „Jing Ke punctures King Qin.” 他早早的收拾了菜摊,回到家中,叮嘱妻儿好好看家,自己走出家门,绕了几条街巷,走到一处深宅门前的时候,轻轻扣了三下门,低声道:“荆轲刺秦王。” The front door opens, he walks, convenient will close, in the front spacious courtyard, dozens people have gathered. 大门打开,他走进去,顺手将们关上,前方宽敞的院子里,已经有数十人聚集在一起。 Also passed the less than half double-hour, often some people come from outside, some time, some people took inventory the population, the people stand in the courtyard neatly, a youth walks from inside. 又过了小半个时辰,不时地有人从外面进来,某一个时刻,有人清点了人数,众人整齐的站在院子里,一名青年从里面走出来。 People bows, said: „Has seen Envoy Xu!” 众人纷纷躬身,说道:“见过许使者！” „Does not need to be overly courteous.” The youth beckon with the hand, said: „Rubbish I were not many said that some garrison troops people outside city stopped, tonight the duty, enters Provincial Governor Mansion, in Provincial Governor

„Moreover, sends people to post the Princess Duanrong portrait, outside the state city also posts, discovers clue, enjoys the silver 1200!” “另外,派人将端蓉公主的画像张贴出去,州城之外也多张贴一些,发现线索者,赏白银千两！” „Compliant!”
