Qianye dares to jump over the Rank 3 challenge, and also has won, the courage and strength are praiseworthy. But this world does not lack talent, is not forever can jump the ranks the challenge, if he runs into other three cliques juniors also such to do, likely loses. 千夜敢于越三级挑战,并且还赢了,勇气和实力都值得称赞。但这世界并不缺少天才,也不是永远都能越级挑战的,他若遇到其他三阀子弟还这么做的话,很可能铩羽而归。 Changes an angle to look again, rank is not very high is compelled to jump the ranks the challenge, is the strategical fault. 再换个角度看,等级不够高又被逼得越级挑战,也是战略上的失误。 Has said Qianye, mentioned unavoidably other Song Clique juniors, Farsighted Prince has drunk: liquor, is calm the cup „Zicheng is good, the disposition is calm, generous atmosphere, not deficient strategy method. Heard that he forms an alliance with Zining before the game, finally obtains martial arts second, the suit first, the political comment first result, the present is the steady first successor. In Zicheng natural talent on , the diligent effort, the strength will work as in the future, and on, not will be high, but maintained the accomplishments of one's ancestors also has.” 说过千夜,免不了提到宋阀其余子弟,睿亲王饮了杯酒,从容道:“子承不错,心性沉稳,宽厚大气,又不缺乏谋略手段。听说他在赛前就和子宁结盟,最终取得武功第二,军略第一,政论第一的成绩,现在是稳稳的第一继承人。子承天资中上,又勤奋努力,将来战力当在中,将和上,将之间,不算高,但守成也是有余了。” The Song Clique people nod in abundance, Duchess An also has the same feeling. 宋阀众人纷纷点头,安国公夫人也颇有同感。 Then the Farsighted Prince frown knits the brows, resembles somewhat is hard to decide, after the moment, said: „As for Zining, very difficult to draw the conclusion to him. ‚Three Thousand Floating Leaves Art’ it is said is Art of Heaven Change, may in Zining, the strength not be weak. His advancement in fact is extremely quick, does not have the foundation not steady sign, is really rare. However I occasionally have hearing, as if does Zining somewhat indulge the female sexual attractiveness? And is the Chevalier marrying object?” 接着睿亲王双眉皱眉,似有些难以决定,片刻后才说:“至于子宁,很难给他下定论。‘三千飘叶诀’据说是天演之术,可在子宁手里,战力也不弱。他进境实际上是极快的,却丝毫没有根基不稳的迹象,实在非常难得。不过我偶有耳闻,似乎子宁有些沉溺女色？并且是与士族联姻对象？” Song Zhongnian and remote antiquity elder complexion somewhat is immediately awkward. This matter said, the past years was elder rolls the collective evaluation the result, actually also had in the clan the reason of power balance in inside. 宋仲年和太上长老脸色顿时有些尴尬。此事说起来,当年是长老团集体评定的结果,其实也有族内势力平衡的原因在里面。 As long as Cliques and Aristocratic Families, even if collateral branch multitudious is not willing to go to and Chevalier with oneself juniors marries. The Song Zining paternal line is matriarchal, in the past cultivated the talent appraisal not to be high, was actually going against a son of first wife's reputation, was selected by the elder group in light of this. Song Zhongnian is comforting clansman, has tacitly approved this result, has not come out to speak for this grandson. Since he is Clique Lord, must make a sacrifice for the clan. 但凡门阀世家,哪怕是旁系庶支也不愿拿自家子弟去和士族联姻。宋子宁父系母系羸弱,当年修炼天赋也评价不高,却顶着一个嫡子的名头,就此被长老团选中。宋仲年为安抚族人,也默认了这一结果,并没出来为这个孙子说话。他既然是阀主,总要为族里做点牺牲。 Who once expected, Song Zining will amaze so the world with a single brilliant feat. Must know, he obtained resources and Song Zicheng, Song Zi'an and the others is unable to compare from the clan, can have such achievement unexpectedly, if this did not call the natural talent, that what was the natural talent? 谁曾料到,宋子宁会如此一鸣惊人。要知道,他从族内所得资源与宋子承、宋子安等人根本无从相比,竟然还能有如此成就,如果这都不叫天资,那什么才是天资？ After the term examination, Song Zining is the first talent of fourth-generation recognition. Not is only the fourth generation, is the previous generation must be swept away by him. But Song Zining proficiently built Ningyuan Heavy Industry, wrapped Rank 6 armaments and military provisions to show the strength through that. 大考之后,宋子宁已经是第四代公认的第一天才。不仅是第四代,就是上一代也要被他横扫。而宋子宁一手创建的宁远重工,也通过那套六级武备展现了实力。 So looks like, regardless of Song Zining manages method or the military study talent, actually has it all, at least may calculate to like a crane among chickens in the Song Clique younger generation. So long as does not affect the cultivation foundation, anything is loose, the hobby mixed study, is an elegance, not having the foundation also to make these, that called the playboy. 如此看来,宋子宁无论经营手段还是武学天赋,竟然一应俱全,至少在宋阀年轻一代中可算鹤立鸡群。只要不影响修炼根基,什么性情风流,爱好杂学,就是一种风雅,没有根基还要弄这些,那才叫纨绔。 But now the biggest problem is, Song Clique has pushed out Song Zining with Chevalier marries. Regarding the empire upper class, is absolutely impossible to accept a Chevalier woman becomes the clique mistress, but has this engagement, also will not have wealthy and prominent family noblewoman to be willing to become Song Zining's equal status wife. 但现在最大的问题是,宋阀已经把宋子宁推出去与士族联姻了。对于帝国贵族阶层来说,绝无可能接受一个士族女人成为门阀的当家主母,而有这段婚约在,也不会有高门贵女愿意成为宋子宁的平妻。 Even if will cancel the engagement in the future, is the trace of not being able to cancel. No matter what breaks a promise, will be denounced by the pure running water, but the noblewoman status that can marry will also fall First Grade, at least the imperial clan absolutely will not consider to marry off a daughter. 就算未来取消婚约,也是个抹不去的痕迹。不管什么原因毁约,都会被清流诟病,而能娶到的贵女身份也会降上一等,至少宗室绝对不会考虑嫁女。 This is a Song Zining's mechanical damage. Two surname marriages, the bloodlines melt, in this not peaceful world, when regardless of being the reliable and powerful alliances. Cannot marry Powerful and Influential Big Clique, was equal to being short of half boost baseless. 这才是宋子宁的一个硬伤。两姓婚姻,血脉相融,在这个并不和平的世界上,无论什么时候都是可靠而有力的联盟。不能联姻高门大阀,等于凭空少了一半助力。 Farsighted Prince true wife is the Song Zhongnian daughter of first wife, he civil part of manager in Imperial Court, many places also needs the Song Clique support, therefore does not have any scruples in this situation in a moment. However he also has no intention extremely to interfere the Song Clique internal affairs thoroughly, sees the scene to be awkward, intends to change the topic. 睿亲王的正妻是宋仲年嫡女,他在朝堂中主管的民事部分,很多地方也需要宋阀支持,因此在这种场合说话就没什么顾忌。不过他也无意太过深入地干涉宋阀内务,看到场面尴尬起来,就有意转换话题。 Farsighted Prince slightly one hesitant, said: „Said, in the near future some trends, will perhaps be worth paying attention. First, hears by rumor the Zhang Boqian injury to recover, must challenge Ding Xuan King.” 睿亲王略一犹豫,道:“说起来,近期有些动向,或许值得关注。其一,风闻张伯谦伤势一愈,就要挑战定玄王。” Such remarks, everybody present is all startled! 此言一出,举座皆惊！ As a result of ancestor long hatred, Zhang Boqian to Song Clique always not false words, but there is Duchess An , his side does not have what big movement. But if the Zhang Boqian smooth promote step was Heavenly King, even if Zhang Clique continued to hold troops, in the government and people possibly had many people have the different kind thoughts. Many neutral pussyfooters in light of this will reverse to Zhang Clique. 由于祖上宿怨,张伯谦对宋阀向来不假言辞,但是有安国公夫人在,他那边也没有什么大动作。可如果张伯谦顺利晋阶为天王的话,即使张阀继续按兵不动,朝野之中可能有不少人会起别样心思。不少中立观望者或会就此倒向张阀。 The Song Clique everybody surface has the worried look, Duchess An actually completely thinks little, asked: „Also what news?” 宋阀人人面有忧色,安国公夫人却完全不以为意,问:“还有些什么消息？” Farsighted Prince said: „This This King and several other king brothers go on patrol major Cliques and Aristocratic Families, discovered that in recently several years, one batch of youngster cultivation base progress by leaps and bounds, moreover does not have the foundation not steady sign.” 睿亲王道:“这次本王和其他几位王兄巡游各大门阀世家,发现就在最近数年间,有一批年轻人修为突飞猛进,而且也没有根基不稳的迹象。” „They do not depend only on the medicament to urge, almost every person has practiced secret method combat technique of Warlord level in the Fighter stage to small accomplishment. For example Zhao Clique Duke Cheng En two young master Zhao Junhong, are the same with Zining, is promoted after Heaven Mysterious Spring Hunt continuously, has traced the Warlord threshold. But Far East Wei Family Heir Apparent in the past year, rose Rank 4 continually!” “他们并非只靠药剂催成,几乎每个人都在战兵阶段就修炼了战将级的秘法战技至小成。比如赵阀承恩公的二公子赵君弘,就和子宁一样,在天玄春狩后连续晋级,已经摸到了战将门槛。而远东魏家的世子更是在过去一年里,连升了四级！” „Such situation, respectively has several people in Zhang and Bai two cliques, other aristocratic families have 12. Perhaps before long, we can see a number of 20 over Warlord.” “这样的情况,在张白两阀中也各有几人,其他世家还有12。也许过不了多久,我们就可以看到一批20出头的战将。” Such remarks, the people change countenance once more. 此言一出,众人再次动容。 Cliques and Aristocratic Families direct descendant juniors, so long as natural talent suffices not to worry the resources, therefore regards as important the foundation to be solid. With Chevalier and compared with my impoverished family juniors, they the promotion speed before Warlord are not quick, instead was sometimes slow. However breaks through the Warlord proportion to be higher, because the foundation is thick, Origin Force is pure, once the promote step will widen the obvious disparity in the strength. 门阀世家的嫡系子弟,只要天资够好就不愁资源,因此非常看重根基扎实。与士族和寒门子弟相比,他们在战将前升级速度并不快,有时候反而是慢了。但是突破战将的比例则要高许多,而且因为根基厚实,原力精纯,一旦晋阶就会在战力上拉开明显差距。 According to empire passing convention, before 30 years old , becomes Warlord, can handle the talent two characters. For example when Bai Clique Bai Longjia, was quickly to 30 promote step Warlord, but he, once were broken through crossed Brigadier General directly, had the Major General level strength. 按照帝国过往惯例,30岁之前成为战将,都可以当得起天才二字。比如白阀的白龙甲,就是快到30时才晋阶战将,但他一经突破就直接越过准将,拥有了少将级战力。 Breaks through Warlord to have two recognition paths \; first, successful, routinely, after cultivating to gathering qi into vortex, direct promote step. Second, to suppress the rank, repeatedly whets Origin Force, drives out the impurity pure concise, when Origin Force more approaches the Daybreak source, when breaking through Warlord will obtain a more formidable strength. 突破战将有两条公认道路,一是水到渠成,也就是按部就班,修炼至聚气成漩后,直接晋阶。二是压制等级,在此期间反复磨砺原力,精纯凝练驱除杂质,当原力越靠近黎明本源,在突破战将时就会获得越强大的力量。 But is not everyone can take the second path, most people when gathering qi into vortex, are unable to hold and control huge Origin Force, had no alternative can only the promote step. But the Cliques and Aristocratic Families juniors have various secret method to attempt to suppress, generally speaking, air/Qi beginning the potential of vortex, can suppress one year is the talent, such as Zhao Jundu this stayed unexpectedly the entire five years, entire empire also only then he. 但并不是每个人都能走第二条道路,大多数人在聚气成漩时,无法容纳和掌控庞大原力,别无选择只能晋阶。而门阀世家子弟则有各种秘法可以尝试压制,一般来说,气漩之势初起后,能压住一年就是天才,如赵君度这样竟然停留了整整五年的,整个帝国也就只有他一人而已。 But the meaning of Farsighted Prince, clearly was said that now unexpectedly will present a number of 20 over Warlord, not because will promote too thus quickly affected them to break through the achievement after Warlord? 可现在睿亲王的意思,分明是说居然会出现一批20出头的战将,还不会因为升级太快从而影响他们突破战将后的成就？ Song Zhongnian sinking sound said: „This is...... The trillion of Empire resurge?” 宋仲年沉声道:“这难道是......帝国中兴之兆？” Several hundred years ago, when the empire welcomed „light military resurgence”, the hero poured forth. In the past so-called talent, in Resurgence Era immediately gloomy Lightless. At that time the innumerable star galloping battleground, hit Dark Race to retreat in defeat again and again, not only east land income empire territory, but also occupied beacon-fire Continent one-third. 数百年前,帝国迎来“光武中兴”时,英杰辈出。往昔所谓天才,在中兴时代顿时暗淡无光。那时无数名将驰骋沙场,打得黑暗种族节节败退,不光将东陆收入帝国版图,还占据了烽火大陆的1。 The light military resurgence to the later period, empire clique also grew nine cliques from three cliques. Since the date of arrogant Qin Liguo, the clique standard has not changed, therefore increase of quantity also means the powerhouse to increase sharply, the strength rises. 光武中兴到了后期,帝国门阀也从三阀增长到了九阀。自大秦立国之日起,门阀的标准就没有改变过,所以数量的增加也意味着强者激增,实力上涨。 Is separated by for several hundred years later, will empire also welcome time of the time resurgence? 难道相隔数百年后,帝国又将迎来一次中兴之期？ „It seems like was so.” The Farsighted Prince nod said, „I and king brothers mostly think.” However on his face does not have many happy expression. “看来就是如此了。”睿亲王点头道,“我和王兄们大多这么认为。”然而他脸上却无多少喜色。 The Song Clique various people complexion is also dignified. 宋阀诸人也脸色凝重。 So-called Empire resurge, means the coming of greatly turbulent time, not only will manifest in facing the Dark Race battlefield, lies above empire Imperial Court, among government and people. Moreover the fact that the people say, differs from the past today, the Imperial House strength has been inferior to light martial Nianjian. 所谓帝国中兴,也意味着大动荡时代的到来,不仅将体现在面对黑暗种族的战场上,也在于帝国内部的庙堂之上,朝野之间。而且还有一个众人都说不出口的事实,今日不同以往,帝室的实力已经远不如光武年间。 Qin Empire since founding a nation, has been Imperial House and Cliques and Aristocratic Families altogether governs the world. The cornerstone of empire was awakened and had the formidable Origin Force old families, precisely flesh and blood and lives of their innumerable juniors have established 46 areas, haunched a side to rest and build up strength to Human race, growing strong world. 大秦自立国以来,就是帝室与门阀世家共治天下。帝国的基石是觉醒并拥有了强大原力的世族们,正是他们无数子弟的血肉和生命奠定了46疆域,也给人族撑起一方休养生息,发展壮大的天地。 Since 1200, the old family enjoys the special right, simultaneously fulfills the security territory responsibility. In their juniors minds, the family, surname and bloodlines are most important existences. Imperial House wields the world, issues an order 300 provinces, but is very difficult to meddle to various Cliques and Aristocratic Families internal affairs. In common people eyes, patriarchal clan law often compared with empire law effective force. 1200年来,世族享有特殊权利,同时履行保卫疆土责任。在他们的子弟心目中,家族、姓氏、血脉才是最重要的存在。帝室执掌天下,令行300省,但对各门阀世家的内务却很难插手。在世人眼中,宗族法度往往比帝国律令更有效力。 In this case, resurgence time, the powerhouse pours forth, Imperial House similarly will have the talented person to emerge. However Imperial House and aristocratic family clique base number is different, the population is less than the aristocratic family whole by far, the next ten years 20 years will pass by, when this batch of youngster will grow, the strength of Imperial House control aspect will drop to a dangerous degree. 在这种情况下,中兴时期,强者辈出,帝室也同样会有人才涌现。然而帝室和世家门阀毕竟基数不同,人数远远少于世家整体,未来十年20年过去,待这批年轻人成长起来,帝室掌控局面的力量就会下降到一个危险的程度。 In inverse proportion, the Cliques and Aristocratic Families strength inflates, difficult to protect will not leave 1-2 to want the verbal command world the fierce and ambitious. 此消彼长,门阀世家力量膨胀,难保不会出一两个想要号令天下的枭雄。 When previous resurgence, regardless of light Wuhai University emperor policy martial arts excels by far the present age, once the whole body under besieging of three dark Grand Monarch drew back, shocking common people. By empire, although nine cliques exists side by side, but veneration of Imperial House, actually in advance the generation, is next to the founding time. 上次中兴之时,光武大帝无论政略武功均是冠绝当世,曾在三名黑暗大君的围攻下全身而退,震惊世人。是以帝国虽然九阀并立,但帝室之尊崇,却远超前代,仅次于开国时期。 However now the emperor actually lives in seclusion in Wei Yang Palace, little comes. Empire backbone one generation of Zhang Boqian and Lin Xitang twin jewels sparkle, younger generation Zhao Jundu startled certainly colorful, in Imperial House actually was still two ancestry's Heavenly King in the support general situation, odd/surplus Zi, although also had the natural talent to be outstanding, but is unable by far with that three people side by side. 然而当今皇帝却在未央宫内深居简出,很少现身。帝国中坚一代张伯谦、林熙棠双璧闪耀,年轻一代赵君度惊才绝艳,帝室中却仍是两位祖辈的天王在支撑大局,余子虽也有天资优异的,但远远无法和那三人比肩。 A piece quiet, in all will of the people slowly floats an idea, the tumultuous times. 一片沉寂中,所有人心里都缓缓浮上一个想法,乱世将至。 Old Lu said suddenly: „Such being the case, these old rules were already obsolete, unserviceable. In my opinion, if sets up Zining for the successor, marries An Renyi Ziyan again, why not? By my Song Clique resources, before child , the insufficiency on foundation completely is not the issue.” 鲁老忽然道:“既然如此,那些老规矩早就过时,不堪使用。依我看,若把子宁立为继承人,再将子嫣嫁给安人忆,有何不可？以我宋阀资源,那孩子以前根基上的不足完全不是问题。” Old Lu such remarks, the people are all startled, the ancestor also knit the brows, hesitates does not speak. 鲁老此言一出,众人皆惊,就连老祖宗也皱了皱眉,沉吟不语。 The Song Clique remote antiquity elder smiles bitterly saying: „Old Lu, this matter rather extremely shocks everybody, how does this make other Cliques and Aristocratic Families see my Highland Song Clan? Draws back 10,000 steps saying that this King Jin elects the imperial concubine, very favors Ziyan, puts ready-made King Jin imperial concubine not to do, counter- can gain a son-in-law my impoverished family even possibly is the common people juniors? Other did not say how could it not be to offend King Jin.” 宋阀太上长老苦笑道:“鲁老,此事未免太过惊世骇俗,这让其他门阀世家如何看我高陵宋氏？退10000步讲,这次晋王选妃,十分看好子嫣,难道放着现成的晋王正妃不做,反要去招赘一个寒门甚至可能是平民子弟？别的不说,岂非把晋王得罪死了。” Old Lu sneers saying: „Not is only the An Renyi status is also insufficient? You are not willing to acknowledge that in the final analysis antecedent not, gives Zining the position of Clique Lord! Even if just, Zicheng marrying imperial clan, preserves the position of Duke, barely manages to maintain a feeble existence again one generation. You have not thought that real tumultuous times arrival, Song Clique situation how? Might as well while this opportunity, welcomes a newcomer worn-out, bath hot rebirth.” 鲁老冷笑道:“也不仅仅是安人忆的身份不够吧？说到底你们不愿承认前事之非,把阀主之位交给子宁！只不过,就算子承联姻宗室,也不过保住国公之位,再苟延残喘一代而已。你们就没有想想,真的乱世到来,宋阀处境如何？还不如趁此时机,破旧迎新,浴火重生。” Song Zhongnian and remote antiquity elder looked at one mutually, smiles bitterly, did not refute Old Lu, because some words really said. The matter does not have to be so simple, influence assignment that Old Lu said consolidated, even if Song Zhongnian this Clique Lord , under is not a few words can let person of little darling another Fengsin main. 宋仲年和太上长老互相看了一眼,都是苦笑,也不反驳鲁老,因为有些话实在说不出口。事情并没有鲁老说的那么简单,已经稳固的势力分配,就算宋仲年这个阀主,也不是一句话就能让下面人乖乖另奉新主的。 The Song Zining foundation is too shallow, the age is too young, to hold the steady authority, at least wants even/including root to wipe out several collateral series to set up the prestige. great elder Song Zhongcheng that is must, in this process, does not know that can flow the blood of many Song Clique juniors. But Song Clique direct descendant is not prosperous to someone comes Ding, where can withstand such internal friction. 宋子宁根基太浅,年纪太轻,若想掌稳权柄,至少要连根拔除几个支系来立威。大长老宋仲埕那一系必在其中,这个过程中,不知道会流多少宋阀子弟的血。而宋阀嫡系向来人丁不旺,哪里经得起这样的内耗。 At the appointed time after bath fire, perhaps the rebirth, has not melted the ashes first. 到时浴火之后,恐怕还未重生,先化灰烬。 An Renyi indeed is a good blade, however is extremely sharp. His promote step Warlord did not fall from the sky, future Song Clique nobody can grasp him radically, Song Zining oneself must take very big effort. In this case, where Song Zhongnian and remote antiquity elder dares to gain a son-in-law by the daughter of first wife, making him have to establish separately an authority of department. 安人忆确实是一把好刀,然而太过锋锐。他晋阶战将而不陨落,将来的宋阀根本没人能够掌握他,就连宋子宁本人恐怕都要费很大力气。这种情况下,宋仲年和太上长老哪敢以嫡女招赘,让他拥有分立一系的权力。 Old Lu this astonishing language related to the internal affairs of Song Clique deep level, Farsighted Prince was listening at the same time, can only drink unceasingly, does not lift. 鲁老这番惊人之语已涉及宋阀深层次的内务,睿亲王在一边听着,只能不断喝酒,连头都不抬了。 Finally Duchess An sighed, said: „In chooses the family of meritorious service, is closely related is inheriting, expensive cold is not related trhough marriage, is the foundation of Cliques and Aristocratic Families foothold. If breaks these customs for no reason, our Song Family with the world old family is an enemy, does not wait for the tumultuous times to arrive, oneself first civil strife. This matter, reconsiders.” 最后安国公夫人叹了口气,说:“内选阀阅,嫡正传承,贵寒不通婚,是门阀世家立足之本。若平白无故地打破这些规矩,我们宋家就是与天下世族为敌,不等乱世到来,自己就先内乱了。此事,再议吧。” Since Duchess An said that that is absolutely impossible. The Old Lu complexion is resentful, the whole face refuses to accept, but did not speak. 安国公夫人既然这么说了,那就是绝无可能。鲁老脸色悻悻,满脸不服,但也不说话了。 The potential of this occasion Song Clique, the building will be delapidated. Moves to take, motionless, then waits for death, in choices, solid to difficult to difficult. 此际宋阀之势,大厦将颓。动则取死,不动则等死,取舍之间,实是至艰至难。 „Lotus plumule slightly builds” here atmosphere stagnates, „Cloud Depth Hall” other institute actually returned to normal. After all words openly expressed that Song Zining tidied up lowly several days of moods quickly, drew Qianye to go to the institute slightly to think. “莲心小筑”这边气氛凝滞的时候,“云深堂”别院却恢复了平静。所有话都说开后,宋子宁很快收拾起低落了好几天的心情,拉着千夜去院中小酌。 They sit facing each other under the moon/month, one bottle of liquor, 45 plates of side dishes, some beautiful women hold the pot, thinks lightly sings shallowly, as leaving banquet. 两人在月下对坐,一瓶酒,45碟小菜,又有美人执壶,轻酌浅唱,就作为离别的宴席。 Since the term examination has settled down, Black Stream City that side situation will possibly have very sweeping change in the near future, Qianye has not remained, next afternoon left Song Clique, travels by Airship to return to Evernight Continent. 大考既然已经尘埃落定,黑流城那边的形势近期可能有很大变化,千夜就没有多留,第二天下午离开了宋阀,搭乘浮空艇回返永夜大陆。 Returned to Black Stream City, Qianye also without enough time to confess to give Song Hu the program plan that Song Zining proposed, Wei Bainian guard first visits. 一回到黑流城,千夜还来不及把宋子宁提出的计划方案交代给宋虎,魏柏年的亲卫就先上门来了。
