Kun Yuan three years. 坤元三年。 A Zezhou foreigner headman king dispatches troops into battle for chaotic, big Wu Dynasty to send forest Feichong to command troops the punitive expedition. 泽州夷人土司番王起兵为乱,大武朝派林飞冲率兵讨伐。 forest Feichong to Zezhou, commandeers the people husband initially immediately, the incorporation place theater box soldier, and repeatedly goes to battle, quite captures, the government troops morale inspires for it big. 林飞冲初至泽州,当即征发民夫,收编地方厢兵,并且屡次出战,均颇有斩获,官军士气为之大振。 In July, with the headman allied armies war, cuts several thousands, seizes innumerably, and exploits a victory to regain the number district, soldier/weapon front storms into the new atmosphere county. 七月,与土司联军大战,阵斩数千,缴获无数,并且乘胜收复数县,兵锋攻入新风郡之中。 The news passes on, royal government high and low, immediately cheers. 消息传至,朝廷上下,顿时为之欢呼雀跃。 Jingyang city, crown prince mansion. 景阳城,太子府。 „Your highness great happiness, forest General a city, can put down a rebellion in this year surely!” “殿下大喜,林将军又得一城,想必定能在今年内平乱！” Several civil and military flattered to flatter. 几名文武谄媚地奉承着。 „Un......” “嗯……” Wu Ding sits on the seat of honor, in the hand takes the combat report, actually fell into hesitation: „The ability that forest flies to clash, naturally believes this solitary one, but is afraid him under the pressure, extremely advances recklessly......” 武定坐在主位上,手里拿着战报,却是陷入了沉吟:“林飞冲的能力,孤自然相信,只是害怕他迫于压力,太过冒进……” Arrived his situation, naturally knew the usual ability, with that the wartime can perform, is completely two matters. 到了他这个地步,自然知晓平时的才能,与战时能发挥的才能,完全是两码事。 Even if forest Feichong line of gab in your family place, but let out whether can hit to be able seriously to fight, was the unknown number, luckily, this person indicated with the action, was worth itself trusting and investing. 纵然林飞冲在府上夸夸其谈,但放出去当真是否能打能战,还是未知之数,幸好,此人用行动表明,还是值得自己信任与投资的。 Hopes that he because, is stressed that but attacks reluctantly, that then should the general situation unobstructive , if no other influences on continue to meddle! 只是希望他不要因为自己,压力过大,而勉强出击,那便应该大局无碍如果没有其它势力继续插手的话！ Wu Ding thinks of here, on the face appears haze. 武定想到这里,脸上就浮现出一层阴霾。 Opening the academician is very efficient, after being ordered to investigate, quick Ministry of Rites vice minister the details of Wu and Yue kingdoms shows one's true nature to face upwards, gives his feeling is reads the official of worthless writing slightly, nothing unusual, even also somewhat favors Crown Prince in, obviously is a potential Crown Prince Party. 张翰林很是得力,奉命调查之后,很快就将礼部侍郎吴越的底细翻了个底朝天,给他的感觉就是一个略微读死书的官员,没有任何异常,甚至还有些倾向于太子,明显是一个潜在的太子党。 Is so, Wu Ding is actually fearful and apprehensive, because of all these all, explained that has one fearful and influence that is good at concealing, is aiming at itself in secret. 越是如此,武定却越是心惊胆颤,因为这一切的一切,都说明有着一股可怕而善于匿藏的势力,在暗中针对自己。 „Hū......” “呼……” Wu Ding grows the tone: „Does not know that is what kind of villain, dares so, not to fear that seriously was exterminated the nine generations?” 武定长出口气:“又不知是何等凶徒,竟敢如此,当真不怕被夷灭九族么？” In something regarding work places, he is incomparably clear. 对于坊间的一些事情,他可是无比清楚。 Due to sex limit, even if under the blade axe forces, in front of these gentries acknowledged Wu Zhi this Sage your majesty, but the heart unwilling sentiment does not hope eventually. 由于性别限制,纵然在刀斧逼迫之下,那些士绅面前承认了武雉这位圣人陛下,但终究心不甘情不愿。 In their ideal, Mr. of governing definitely takes a man, even if only the ornaments! Otherwise the face of man son cannot pass. 在他们理想中,治国之君必然要一位男子,纵然只是摆设！否则须眉男儿的面子过不去。 Therefore, many strength want to force up Wu Ding, even bragged by the loyal minister. 因此,很多力量都希望将武定顶上去,甚至以忠臣自诩。 Does to such loyal minister, in his opinion, is actually more of a hindrance than a help completely. 奈何这样的忠臣,在他看来,却完全就是帮倒忙的。 However, influence that this time presents, actually obviously is not such simple, but real intention to oneself disadvantageous! 不过,这次出现的势力,却又明显不是这么简单,而是真的意图对自己不利！ Wu Ding walks into the garden, looked at the somewhat dense sky, suddenly sinks at heart, are many feeling that wind and rain wanted. 武定步入庭园,看了看有些黑压压的天空,蓦然心里一沉,多了一种风雨欲来的感觉。 „Your highness!” “殿下！” „Your highness!” “殿下！” The step sound gets up, brings shouting in a hurry. 步履声响起,带着匆匆的呼喊。 Wu Ding only felt that the chest depressed desire stops up, the corner of the eye, sees the form that the academician quick steps come: „Daoist Magic passed on a message, the thousand li (500 km) was urgent!” 武定只感觉胸口沉闷欲堵,眼角恍惚间,就看见张翰林疾步而来的身影:“道法传讯,千里加急！” He arrives in front of Wu Ding, deep line of rituals, language fast fast: „Broken capture General forest Feichong has a low opinion of the enemy to advance recklessly, was introduced the miasma forest to ambush by headman witch Gudu, died in battle at the scene, Great Army casualty incalculably!” 他来到武定面前,深行一礼,语速飞快:“破虏将军林飞冲轻敌冒进,被土司巫骨毒引入瘴林伏击,当场阵亡,大军死伤无算！” „What?” “什么？” Wu Ding at heart one startled, is grasping the jade pleasant shakes slightly: „Unexpectedly so?” 武定心里一惊,握着玉如意的略微一抖:“竟然如此？” forest Feichong the ability he usually knew, must possibly not be the corrupt merit advances recklessly, these have the dark hand absolutely. 林飞冲的才能他素来知晓,必不可能是贪功冒进,这其中绝对有着暗手。 But in any event, suffers heavy casualties, damages the royal government face countenance greatly, is actually the fact, even if can live, where the fate also very to goes. 但无论如何,损兵折将,大损朝廷颜面,却是事实,纵然能活着回来,下场也好不到哪去。 „Not only that!” “不仅如此！” Opens the academician deeply to inspire: „In work places also has the rumor to emerge, said that Sage wants to change the dynasty name is ‚Kun’! In the future by Yin lord virtue, the present age generation passes on situated in the female, comes to court by the female!” 张翰林深吸口气:“坊间还有传言兴起,说圣人欲改国号为‘坤’！日后以阴主德,当代代传位于女,以女子临朝！” „This anything cynical remark, cracks a joke!” “这什么怪话,开什么玩笑！” Wu Ding snorts contemptuously, the complexion was also white white one. 武定嗤之以鼻,脸色却又白了一白。 „Rumor, not necessarily does not have, because, Sage near some days indeed prepares to change the dynasty name let alone, this gathers with the rumor, immediately made the foolish couples have the association easily, these boasted of being the person of Crown Prince Party, will be ready to make trouble Ah!” “空穴来风,未必无因,更何况圣人近几日的确预备更改国号,这与流言一合,顿时容易令愚夫愚妇产生联想,那些自诩为太子党之人,也会蠢蠢欲动啊！” „This......” “这……” By this time, even if Wu Ding, somewhat absent-minded: „You think, how can?” 到了此时,纵然武定,也有些失神:“你以为,应当如何？” „Sees by the young feudal official......” “以小臣之见……” stretch/open Hanlin just wants to say the plans of several coping with shifting events by sticking to a fundamental principle experienced planning for the country's good, actually shakes at heart, after all this is crown prince Ah!, if goes a step further again, is the monarch! 张翰林刚刚想说几个以不变应万变的老成谋国之策,心里却又是一抖,毕竟这可是太子啊！若再进一步,就是人君！ The merit of supporting, who doesn't want? And this time crown prince regardless of the ability and wisdom strategy, is the partisan calibre, has to that throne launches the impact the qualifications! 拥立之功,谁不想要？并且此时的太子无论才智谋略,还是党羽器量,都有着向那宝座发起冲击的资格！ He had the foundation, swallowed a saliva, depressed these thoughts forcefully, will open the mouth, suddenly guard ran in a hurry: „Has the decree!” 只是他到底有根基了,咽了口口水,强行将这些心思压下,正要开口,突然门外一名侍卫就匆匆跑来:“有旨意！” „Passes on the Sage instruction from superior!” “传圣人口谕！” This guard has not come to a stop, outside one group of court eunuches welled up, a sharp sound resounds: „Crown prince judge is unclear, making the royal government suffer heavy casualties, the life reflects on one's mistakes in seclusion the introspection, this!” 这侍卫还未站稳,外面一群太监就涌了进来,一个尖利的声音响起:“太子识人不明,令朝廷损兵折将,命闭门思过反省,钦此！” „Son feudal official......” “儿臣……” Wu Ding quickly grasps the meaning of something, the jade of right hand falls pleasant finally on the ground, one is split up. 武定一个激灵,右手的玉如意终于摔在地上,啪得一下四分五裂。 Even if his natural talent is vigorous, Acquired also has Great Luck, but in the face of the imperial authority in addition hegemony, collapses at the first blow. 纵然他天资雄浑,后天又有着大运,但在皇权加霸权面前,还是不堪一击。 This decree, the guard court eunuches of surroundings crown prince mansion rustle tremble, opening the academician is forehead cold sweat directing current, has the feeling of blowing up for rain. 这旨意一下,周围太子府的侍卫太监都簌簌发抖,张翰林更是额头冷汗直流,有着山雨欲来风满楼之感。 ...... …… „Was crown prince ordered to reflect on one's mistakes in seclusion?” “太子被勒令闭门思过？” In the prime minister mansion, under a jasper emerald green tree, Zeng Yu grasps black, grasps white, about is playing chess, hears this, immediately surprisedly. 丞相府内,一株碧玉般翠绿的树下,曾玉一手持黑,一手持白,正在左右对弈,听到这个,立即惊讶地顿了一顿。 „Yes, Master, in the work places spread over, said that now Sage intends to trade another day day, later takes Kun as the number, Secret Virtue(s) main toward!” “是的,老爷,坊间都传遍了,说当今圣人有意改天换日,以后以坤为号,阴德主朝呢！” Old Steward spits the tongue. 老管家吐了吐舌头。 „Nonsense!” “胡闹！” On the Zeng Yu mild invariable face had the mighty waves finally: „Even if Sage intends to change the dynasty name, has what relation(s) with the crown prince? So farfetched! Also, will the news of crown prince mansion, why pass on like this quickly? You fast get down, tell me the person in your family place, if again chaotic wagging the tongue plant root, be careful your heads!” 曾玉原本温润不变的脸上终于起了波澜:“纵然圣人有意更改国号,与太子又有何关系？如此牵强附会！还有,太子府的消息,为何会传得这样快？你速速下去,告诉我府上的人,若再乱嚼舌头根子,当心你们的脑袋！” When spoke this saying, the Zeng Yu eye narrows the eyes slightly, brings Murderous Qi. 说这话时,曾玉眼睛微微眯起,带着杀气。 Old Steward quickly grasps the meaning of something, immediately knows this matter is serious, the master may really probably kill people, immediately changed into a cephalont: „Compliant! Master, old servant this gets down!” 老管家一个激灵,顿时知道这事严重,老爷可真是要杀人的,当即化为了点头虫:“遵命！老爷,老奴这就下去！” „Oh......” “唉……” After trembling old Steward leaves, Zeng Yu puts down the board game piece, sighed suddenly. 等到战战兢兢的老管家离开之后,曾玉放下棋子,又是蓦然一叹。 As Wu Zhi the most important adviser, he understood afterward this your majesty's personality, resolute resolute, the wise judgment is excellent, but since Young Master Wu walks, is even more deeply is unpredictable. 作为武雉后来最重要的谋士,他对于这位主公的性格可谓了解非常,刚毅果决,明断过人,但自从吴公子走后,却是越发深沉难测起来。 This time attacks the matter of crown prince, the trace is extremely deliberately strong, Sage actually so approach, whatever these thieves raise the wind to stir the rain, is really discomforting. 此次攻击太子之事,刻意痕迹太过浓重,圣人却如此做法,任凭这些贼人掀风搅雨,实在令人不安。 „Is it possible that...... Sage intends to lengthen the line, fishes the big fish?” “莫非……圣人有意放长线,钓大鱼？” Zeng Yu quickly grasps the meaning of something suddenly, is looking at the palace wall direction, immediately felt deep, enters the chill in the air of marrow. 曾玉突然间一个激灵,望着皇城方向,登时感觉到一股深沉至极,直入骨髓的寒意。 „If that is right, I am not suitable participate too many......” “若是如此,我也不宜参与太多……” Founding prime minister who those who lived in ages, can start well and end well, how many also there are? 历朝历代,能善始善终的开国丞相,又有几个？ Thought of this, Zeng Yu what lofty aspirations and high ideals did not have immediately, prepared to live in seclusion and decline visitors immediately, observes calmly the development. 一想到这个,曾玉顿时什么雄心壮志都没有了,准备立即闭门谢客,静观事态发展。 „With the Sage thoughts, these clumsy mischief-doers, even if jumps to reach again lively, there is what using?” “以圣人的心思,这些跳梁小丑,纵然蹦达得再欢实,又有何用？” ...... …… „Good! The matter of southwest, cannot think that the clear spirit gate can achieve so the degree unexpectedly!” “好！西南之事,想不到清灵门竟然能做到如此程度！” The previous time secret room, several Daoist gathering same places, on the face have the happy expression: „Now empress has reproven the crown prince, ordered to reflect on one's mistakes in seclusion, this was the Saint family has faded.” 还是上次的密室,几个道人汇聚一起,脸上都带着喜色:“如今女帝已经训斥太子,责令闭门思过,这就是圣眷已衰了。” „Was wrong!” “错了！” Nearby Daoist actually shook the head, said own view: „Empress kept promises, was impartial in administering rewards and punishments, this crown prince had the mistake, was actually only the small mistake, reflected on one's mistakes in seclusion, punishes was also all right! On the contrary, has suppressed was not saying, is the terrifying! And...... this lives in seclusion and declines visitors, has not had the meaning of protection!” 旁边一名道人却是摇头,说出了自己的看法:“女帝说一不二,赏罚分明,这次太子有错,却只是小错,闭门思过,罚了也就没事了！相反,一直憋着不说,才是恐怖！并且……这闭门谢客,也未尝没有保护之意！” This saying to be also reasonable, the people look at each other in blank dismay immediately: „Does seeing of that brother, according to eternal principles how deserve?” 这话也有道理,众人登时面面相觑:“那依道兄之见,该当如何？” „everyone is the high talent, my superficial seeing, what was also considered as?” “诸位都是高才,我的一点浅薄之见,又算得了什么？” Daoist first was humble the sentence, complexion duplicate/restores transferred dignifiedly: „Estranges the day of family/home flesh and blood, I and others did, is the matter in world great risking danger, does not pay attention to want the body dead extermination of entire extended family slightly, must therefore consider completely safe!” 道人先谦逊了句,面色复又转为凝重:“离间天家骨肉,我等所做的,乃是世间一等一行险之事,稍不注意就要身死族灭,因此必须考虑万全！” „This its one, even if empress thoughts we are how puzzled, but does not hinder us to continue to disseminate the rumor, the crown prince falls into disfavor, even must be abandoned! Must make the public sentiment agitated, provokes the resistance.” “这其一,纵然女帝心思如何我们不解,但不妨碍我们继续散播流言,太子失宠,甚至要被废！务必让群情汹汹,激起反抗。” „Its two, strength, must draw support. That is Wu family!” “其二,还有一股力量,必须借助起来。那就是武家！” „Wu family?” “武家？” Several Daoist complexion, if has become aware. 几名道人面色怔怔,若有所悟。 „Right, Wu Zhi is the person of Wu family, today resulted in under the Heaven / World, do you want these relatives to have what idea? Let alone, this crown prince, although is surnamed Wu, but in fact, actually eventually non- is the person of Wu family, Wu Zhi oneself, the water that is also marries the daughter who pushes out, making entire under the Heaven / World 19 Provinces turn into others foundation of the family industry, you said how the person of Wu family can endure?” “没错,武雉乃武家之人,今日得了天下,你想原本那些亲眷会有何想法？更何况,这太子虽然姓武,但实际上,却终究非是武家之人,就连武雉本人,也是嫁出的女儿泼出的水,让整个天下十九州变成别人家基业,你说武家之人如何能忍？” „This...... actually ingenious plan! Also may let the royal government civil strife at least!...... Isn't the empress husband, that Dao Sect Wu Ming (nameless) Immortal Venerable?” “这……倒是个妙计！至不济也可让朝廷内乱！只是……女帝夫婿,不就是那位道门无名仙尊么？” Daoist is saying scruple: „I and others did this, how that Immortal Venerable will respond, but really did not say.” 一名道人迟疑说着:“我等如此做,那位仙尊会如何反应,可实在不好说的。” „Hehe...... to present this situation, these worries?” “嘿嘿……到了如今这个地步,还有这些顾虑么？” Offers advice Daoist that offers suggestions to sneer directly: „Said again, although I and others knew, behind the empress, depends on Heavenly Immortal, when builds up, quite a lot depends on to help, even now still couple affectionate, is supposing the spatial chair in the throne room, indicates a spot. This Wu Ming Heavenly Immortal, many years presently, several Immortal Venerable could not have found, perhaps broken has gone or fell from the sky......, otherwise, has Heavenly Immortal to come between coordinated, I and others with newly toward relation(s), is not necessarily able is so stiff, gets so far as this situation!” 献策献计的道人直接冷笑:“再说,虽然我等都知晓,女帝背后,靠着一位天仙,起家之时,颇多依助,甚至现在仍然伉俪情深,在金銮殿上都设着空椅,足见一斑。只是这位吴明天仙,已经多年未现,就连几位仙尊都找不到,或许早就破界而去或者陨落了……否则,有着一尊天仙居中协调,我等与新朝关系,也未必会如此僵,弄到这个地步！” This saying said that several Daoist are silent. 这话说了,几个道人都是沉默。 Even if has handled so many things, regarding whether to subvert big Wu Dynasty, they still did not have how much energy. 纵然已经做下如此多事情,对于能否颠覆大武朝,他们仍旧没有多少底气。 After doing to Wu Zhi mounts the stage, regarding Dao Sect with other religious sects has the suppression, this is also has no alternative. 奈何武雉上台之后,对于道门与其它教派多有打压,这也是不得已而为之。 If the empress wants the ritual to respect Dao Sect, is just like to Great Zhou is like Pure Jade Dao Lineage, opens Dao Institute broadly, supports the Neo-Confucianism, before even if, has the day of great hatred resentment, is not cannot discuss. 若女帝愿意礼敬道门,就好比对大周对玉清道脉一样,广开道院,扶持道学,那纵然之前有天大仇怨,也不是不可商量。 Only pitifully, says these now again, has not affected. 只可惜,现在再说这些,已经没有丝毫作用了。
