„Cannot think, Sage Emperor retires, in the short time, entire Empire evolved this situation unexpectedly!” “想不到,圣皇退隐,短短时间内,整个帝国居然演变到了这种地步！” That flash, Gao Xianzhi long sigh, facial expression complex. Gao Xianzhi has experienced the Great Tang prosperous times time, even can be said as one of the Great Tang prosperous times founders, Great Tang can push onward the western region, the stable western region, Gao Xianzhi has lasting achievements absolutely. 那一刹那,高仙芝长长叹息,神情复杂不已。高仙芝经历过大唐的盛世时代,甚至可以说是大唐盛世的缔造者之一,大唐能够挺进西域,安定西域,高仙芝绝对功不可没。 However the current event change, Great Tang also reveals the sign of deterioration now, when Empire starts the civil strife, start that also weakens. This point, Gao Xianzhi understands compared with anyone. 然而时事变迁,现在大唐也显露出了衰败的迹象,当一个帝国开始内乱,也就是自我削弱的开始。这一点,高仙芝比谁都明白。 „All are only the hearsay, is unable to confirm, moreover that side King Song to the matter of poison has made every effort to keep secret, I am unable to estimate the truth. However present Empire had too many matters, soon before, that side First Imperial Prince also proposed that must make Ministry of War Assistant Minister Kong martial substitute for the position of Sir Zhangchou. Matter, even if not, perhaps cannot cut off the relations with that!” “一切都只是传闻,无法证实,而且宋王那边对中毒的事情一直讳莫如深,我也无法去揣度真相。不过现在的帝国已经发生了太多事情,不久之前,大皇子那边还提议要让兵部侍郎孔武取代章仇大人的位置。——宋王的事情,就算不是,恐怕也和那位脱不了关系！” Wang Chong opens the mouth to say finally. 王冲终于开口道。 „That was too impatient, he after all is the Sage Emperor bloodlines, hundred years later, on this day under after all isn't his? He is not worthwhile such does.” “那一位太心急了,他毕竟是圣皇血脉啊,百年之后,这天下不终归是他的吗？他根本犯不着这么去做。” That checks, Gao Xianzhi shakes the head again and again, sigh. 那一刹,高仙芝连连摇头,叹息不已。 „If he is really that person, will not make this matter. How your majesty possibly has not sealed the position of his crown prince to the present!” “如果他真是那种人,也就不会做出这种事了。陛下又怎么可能到现在都还没有封他储君之位！” Wang Chong cold sound said. 王冲冷声道。 If First Imperial Prince is really that kindhearted Monarch, he will not urge Big Uncle Wang Gen to become estranged First Imperial Prince, if even he can be more temperate, the dwelling heart is kindhearted, even if no very strong ability, by his Sage Emperor eldest son's ability, Sage Emperor also already sealed the position of his crown prince, Wang Chong not necessarily must also recommend Fifth Imperial Prince Li Heng. 如果大皇子真的是那种仁厚之君,他也就不会劝大伯王亘疏远大皇子了,甚至如果他能够温和一些,宅心仁厚,即便没有很强的能力,以他圣皇长子的能力,圣皇也早就封了他太子之位,王冲也不见得非要举荐五皇子李亨。 Was only a pity, First Imperial Prince is not that person, the Imperial Concubine Xiaoyu death fully explained the issue radically. 只可惜,大皇子根本就不是那种人,肖玉妃的死就已经足以说明问题。 „Great Tang perhaps entered the eventful time now, I was worried now, all these just started, all had not finished. Although this time was transferred the western region, so long as First Imperial Prince sends the person who succeeds to stabilize the western region, stable rear area, even if he adjusts the return to the Capital Master me, I will not have the too big complaint. Compares the national affairs, individual success and failure on the contrary is not very important.” “大唐现在恐怕已经进入多事之秋了,我现在担心,这一切才刚刚开始,一切还远没有结束。这一次虽然被调离西域,但是只要大皇子派去继任的人能够稳定西域,稳定后方,就算他将我调回京师,我也不会有太大的怨言。相比起国家大事,个人的得失反倒并不是很重要。” „Now I only worried that First Imperial Prince had underestimated the Caliphate Empire ambition, before I leave a post, obtained the news, Caliphate Empire some were not law-abiding. Although previous time we have projected on Khorasan, but has not entered Baghdad after all, Caliphate Empire Origin Qi remains, but this time, if the Caliphate secondary is chaotic, I do not know really who can also resist them!” “现在我只担心大皇子低估了大食帝国的野心,我离任之前已经得到消息,大食帝国已经有些不安分了。上一次我们虽然打到了呼罗珊,但毕竟没有进入巴格达,大食帝国元气尚存,但是这一次,如果大食再次生乱,我真不知道有谁还可以抵挡他们！” Gao Xianzhi sobbed, the facial expression had endless emotion. Before remembering that frigid campaign, Gao Xianzhi cannot bear soon looked at present youngster one eyes once more. 高仙芝唏嘘道,神情感慨不已。想起不久之前的那场惨烈战役,高仙芝忍不住再次看了眼前的少年一眼。 After war of Talas's War and Khorasan, the Anxi Protectorate Army reputation and prestige another level higher, many people said that Anxi War God worthily is Jewel of the Empire, precisely, because has him, can win this war. 经过怛罗斯之战和呼罗珊之战,安西都护军的名声和威望都更上一层楼,很多人都说安西战神不愧是帝国之璧,正是因为有他在,才能赢得这场战争。 But only Gao Xianzhi knows, if not the present youngster, if no reinforcements as well as outstanding Art of War that he leads, that war early lost. 但是只有高仙芝知道,如果不是眼前的少年,如果不是有他率领的援军以及超卓的兵法,那场战争早已经输了。 - only depends on his strength, was impossible to resist had / the present forest and Qutayba these Top Level Famous General Caliphate Empire! ——仅凭他一个人的实力,根本不可能对抗得了拥有艾布穆/斯林、屈底波这些顶级名将的大食帝国！ In the battlefield, this youngster has established a capital city entire west frontier, but now, to Imperial Court, the entire Empire pressure once more gathered on his shoulder, King Song is poisoned, Zhangchou Jianqiong assassination, Confucianism Sect all sorts, Gao Xianzhi in the western region distant heard, but Wang Chong actually by oneself experience, if no his existence, Gao Xianzhi does not even dare to imagine, entire Empire will turn into any appearance. 在战场上,这个少年定鼎了整个西陲,而如今,到了朝堂,整个帝国的压力又再次聚集到了他的肩膀上,宋王中毒,章仇兼琼遇刺,还有儒门的种种,高仙芝只是在西域远远的听说,但王冲却是亲身的经历者,如果没有他的存在,高仙芝甚至都不敢想象,整个帝国将会变成什么样子。 Present Empire needs the present youngster compared with it any time in the past! 现在的帝国比之以往任何时候都更加需要眼前的少年！ Unknowingly, perhaps including him not to discover, he already became the entire Empire center. 不知不觉,或许连他自己都没有发现,他早已成为了整个帝国的中心。 This is also this time he from western region return to the Capital, has not entered Imperial Court according to the convention in advance, reports to First Imperial Prince and feudal officials, but is meeting with the Wang Chong's reason in secret. 这也是这一次他从西域回京,并没有按照惯例先行进入朝堂,向大皇子和众臣汇报,而是在私底下会见王冲的原因。 In the carriage a deathly stillness, Wang Chong is also silent. 马车中一片死寂,王冲也沉默下来。 At this moment, regarding this huge Empire, this prosperous several hundred years of huge dynasty, two Empire Great General both felt a deep anxiety. In fact, this is the anxieties of border region all military officers, but the beforehand people have a tacit understanding. 这一刻,对于这个庞大的帝国,这兴盛了数百年时间的庞大王朝,两位帝国大将都感觉到了一股深深的忧虑。事实上,这又何尝不是边陲所有将领的忧虑,只是以前众人都心照不宣。 „I let such thing that you bring, did you bring?” “我让你带的那样东西,你带了吗？” Wang Chong asked. 王冲问道。 „Un!” “嗯！” Gao Xianzhi earnest nod of: 高仙芝认真的点了点头: „I have thought you do not want, so long as you think, I and border region all officers will support fully you.” “我一直以为你都不愿意,只要你想,我和边陲所有的将士都会全力支持你。” Gao Xianzhi was saying, pulled out one already to prepare the good letter paper to hand over from the bosom, but Wang Chong looked continually had not looked, received in the bosom. The entire process, Gao Xianzhi has not asked is anything, Wang Chong has not opened looked, two people as if already formed the tacit understanding. 高仙芝说着,从怀中掏出一封早就准备好的信笺递了过去,而王冲连看都没有看,就收入怀中。整个过程,高仙芝也没有问是什么,王冲也没有打开看,两人似乎早已形成默契。 Gao Xianzhi gave Wang Chong that letter, quick opens the vehicle door to leave. The entire process has not alarmed anybody. 高仙芝将那封信交给王冲,很快就打开车门离开了。整个过程没有惊动任何人。 „Then should see that.” “接下来就该去见那一位了。” Wang Chong raised the head, in the mind flashes through together the thought. Quick, the latticework on a carriage growl, goes in another direction of city. 王冲抬起头,脑海中闪过一道念头。很快,轱辘辘,朝着城池的另一个方向而去。 The carriage across the numerous streets and alleys, in the turbulent stream of people, arrived in a restaurant finally. 马车穿过重重街巷,在汹涌的人流中,最后抵达了一间酒楼。 „!” “吱呀！” The vehicle door opens, Wang Chong civilian clothes, from carriage. Begins supinely, before the body, is an ordinary restaurant, layer upon layer blue brick, grey dark roofing tile, only then on the parapets of two buildings is hanging a wineshop banner, the red bottom positive figure, looks like quite bright, but the wineshop banner everywhere black spot, looked like some years. 车门打开,王冲一身便服,从马车中走了出来。仰起头,身前是一座普普通通的酒楼,层层青砖,灰暗色的屋瓦,只有二楼的栏杆上挂着的一杆酒旗,红底黑字,看起来比较鲜艳,不过酒旗处处黑斑,看起来有些年头了。 „Knows a wineshop!” “知一酒家！” The signboard on Wang Chong vision passing over gently and swiftly front door, four ancient seal character bodies heaved in sight. This is a very ordinary wineshop, in the national capital, such wineshop tens of thousands, for these is not very wealthy common people use. 王冲目光掠过大门上的牌匾,四个古篆字体映入眼帘。这是一家非常普通的酒家,在京师之中,这样的酒家成千上万,都是供那些不是很富裕的普通百姓使用的。 The cooked food price in wineshop, majority of very much cherishes the people, several article money can eat a large bowl meal, dish that makes although not like Vast Crane Pavilion, many kinds, fine attractive, but also is delicious. 酒家里的菜肴价格,大部分都很亲民,几文钱就能吃一大碗饭菜,做的菜品虽然不像广鹤楼一样,名目繁多,精致好看,但却也非常可口。 „Young Master, can you enter shop to go to eat?” “公子,您要进店就餐吗？” Wang Chong just appeared in the entrance, a shoulder is building a white towel small two, immediately moved forward to meet somebody. His vision is sizing up Wang Chong, appears very curious. Like wineshop that this common people come and go out, usually will not have any Young Master Wang younger brother, Aristocratic Family Great Clan, the great wild goose business great merchant appears here. Wang Chong attire is magnificent and expensive, looked that will not come and go out here person. 王冲才刚刚出现在门口,一名肩头搭着一条白色毛巾的小二,立即迎了上去。他的目光打量着王冲,显得非常好奇。像这种寻常百姓出入的酒家,平常是绝不会有什么王公子弟,世家大族,鸿商巨贾出现在这里的。王冲身上衣着华贵,一看就不是会出入这里的人。 „Un!” “嗯！” Wang Chong has complied with one, the quick starting to walk footsteps, walk toward. 王冲应了一声,很快迈开脚步,往里走去。 This small two have not recognized his identity obviously, the common people pay attention is the basic necessities of life, cannot go to pay attention to the matter on Imperial Court, does not have this vision experience is also normal. 这名小二显然没有认出他的身份,寻常百姓关注的都是衣食住行,不太会去过于关注朝堂上的事情,没有这份眼界见识也是正常。 „Small two, how my dish did not have on!” “小二,我的菜怎么还没有上！” „Your bad old man, really came to here to ask for the liquor to drink, went back to the old lady quickly!” “你个糟老头子,果然又来这里讨酒喝了,快给老娘回去！” „Storekeeper, three jin (0.5 kg) white liquor, five jin (0.5 kg) beef, the pack carries off!” “掌柜,三斤白酒,五斤牛肉,打包带走！” ... … In restaurant, bustling, noisy, Wang Chong in restaurant goes through, while is sizing up all around. 酒楼内,熙熙攘攘,一片嘈杂,王冲在酒楼内一边穿行,一边打量着四周。 The layout in restaurant is not tasteful, the decoration is not magnificent and expensive, but seems like clean, sometimes the ground was smeared by the child, person who also quick will have the shop owner sweeps clear, the people gather together chatted peaceful/late peaceful/late, the lively banquet scene, some times even abandoned oneself to Bohemianism, the foot stepped in the stool, like did not give a thought to the image in home completely. 酒楼内的布局没有那么讲究,装饰也不华贵,但是看起来却非常干净,地上有时候被小孩弄脏了,也很快会有店家的人去清扫,人们聚在一起谈笑晏晏,觥筹交错,有些时刻甚至放浪形骸,脚都踩到了凳子上面,完全就像在家中一样不顾形象。 Wang Chong sees this, is not offended, but shows a faint smile , to continue to walk toward. 王冲看到这一幕,也并不见怪,只是微微一笑,继续往里走去。 Across rows of liquor tables, from the first floor to two buildings, in two buildings by a east corner, Wang Chong finally saw that person. 穿过一排排酒桌,从一楼到二楼,就在二楼靠东面的一个角落中,王冲终于看到了那个人。 This is one about four chi (0.33 m) small table, the table looks like very obsolete, many place paint surface flaking, reveals the wood fiber of inside furcation, but on the table, has put several dishes, inside is also only the ordinary several dishes, the radish cooks the sirloin and old Jiang to fry the chicken, slightly stirs fry the green vegetables. 这是一张只有四尺左右的小桌子,桌子看起来非常老旧,很多地方漆面剥落,露出里面分叉的木质纤维,而桌子上面,放了几个碟子,里面也只是普普通通的几样菜,萝卜炖牛腩、老姜炒鸡,还有一份小炒青菜。 But by the table is a stature thin old man, he wears the azure cotton robe, is grasping pair of wooden chopsticks, clamps a dish, drinks young wine, then closes one's eyes slightly, looks like calm calm, appearance that a person enjoys. 而桌旁则是一位身材削瘦的老者,他穿着青色的布袍,正握着一双木筷,夹一口菜,喝一口小酒,然后微微闭着眼睛,看起来淡定从容,一个人非常享受的样子。 The old men look that somewhat is slightly strange, however in this restaurant, was really the common diner. 老者看着稍微有些古怪,但是在这酒楼中,实在是再寻常不过的食客了。 The Wang Chong's vision passed over gently and swiftly his body, stopped on the azure jade pendant of his waist quickly. 王冲的目光掠过他的身躯,很快在他腰间的一枚青色的玉佩上停了下来。 „Should be he.” “应该就是他了。” In the Wang Chong heart is thinking, walked toward the old man quickly. 王冲心中想着,很快向着老者走了过去。 „Younger generation Wang Chong, has seen old woman Wei.” “晚辈王冲,见过老太尉。” At small wooden table, Wang Chong bow lower part of the body, deep good a ritual. 就在小木桌旁,王冲躬下身来,深深行了一礼。 Suddenly, the wooden chopsticks stopped immediately in airborne. 一刹那间,木筷顿时停在了空中。 The old men slightly thought in a person, eyes closed is enjoying a time of person, but this flash, hears „old woman Wei” three characters, that covers entirely the wrinkle on the face, stagnates obviously. 老者原本在一个人小酌,闭目享受着一个人的时光,但是这一刹那,听到“老太尉”三个字,那张布满皱纹的脸庞上,明显一滞。 Saw that this checks slight expression, Wang Chong even more determines the guess in heart. If before is not, investigated was very long, knew the whole story to the status of old man, Wang Chong was also very difficult to believe that at present this reputation almost and Zhu'zi impartial old woman Wei, although already withdrew from Imperial Court, even continually too Wei this position, when the sovereign was abolished first, say nothing was toward. 看到这一刹细微的表情,王冲越发确定心中的猜测。如果不是之前调查了很久,对老者的身份知根知底,王冲也很难相信,眼前这位名声几乎和朱子持平的老太尉,虽然早已退出了朝堂,甚至连太尉这个职位,在先皇的时候就已经被废除了,更不用说是本朝。 But at present this, still has the huge influence strength on Imperial Court, fields, even is hard to be a worthy opponent including grandfather Duke of Jiu. 但眼前这位,在朝堂上依然拥有庞大的影响力,某些方面,甚至连爷爷九公都难以匹敌。 Reason that Wang Chong will note this matter , because of previous time Struggle of Military and Scholar. 王冲之所以会注意到这件事情,还是因为上一次的兵儒之争。 When issue Might Is Truth, Confucianism Sect vibrates, even stood including Zhu'zi came out to accuse itself, but when Wang Chong encountered the entire world denounced in word and in writing, in Imperial Court as well as Confucianism Sect, actually some large number of ministers and confucian scholar has not been involved. 当自己发布强权即真理的时候,儒门震动,甚至连朱子都站了出来指责自己,不过就在王冲遭到整个天下口诛笔伐的时候,在朝堂以及儒门之中,却有相当一部分大臣和儒生并没有加入其中。 Reason that will have such situation, because at present this Great Tang already over 90-year- old woman Wei. 而之所以会出现这样的情况,就是因为眼前这位大唐已年过九十的老太尉。 Old woman Wei Shengxing is straightforward, upright and never stooping to flattery, in his heart, had already surmounted so-called Struggle of Military and Scholar, regarding old woman Wei, judges the good and evil wrong, only then, namely regarding Great Tang as well as entire world common people are whether advantageous, as for so-called soldier Confucianism Sect seeing, regarding old woman Wei, is meaningless. 老太尉生性耿直,刚正不阿,在他心中,早已超越了所谓的兵儒之争,对于老太尉来说,评判善恶对错的只有一点,即对于大唐以及整个天下万民是否有利,至于所谓的兵儒门第之见,对于老太尉来说,根本毫无意义。
