Guo Jianwu eyes one bright, quickly asked: „Will idea settle?” 郭建武双眼一亮,急忙问道:“计将安出？” Unfolds the tiger to show a faint smile saying: „You do not use anxiously, quick knew.” 展虎微微一笑道:“你们不用急,很快就知道了。” He hits a horse whip, rushes to the post house entrance fast, to near reins, first looked at Ye Xiaotian one fiercely arrogant, this discontinues, is striking the palm with the horsewhip gently, goes forward to say with a smile: „Which is relay station deputy, this officer must be admitted to the hall post.” 他打马一鞭,快速奔向驿馆门口,到了近前猛地一勒缰绳,先是傲慢地看了叶小天一眼,这才下了马,用马鞭轻轻敲打着掌心,笑吟吟地上前道:“哪位是此间驿丞啊,本官要住进馆驿。” Looks at his brocade clothes Chinese dress to relay station deputy, is impressive, pours does not dare to neglect, the skull cap, tightened the apron busily, pours to grasp the round-bottomed wok, well-mannered said/tunnel: „I am this place relay station deputy. Under the foot, why the business arrives at Ziyang? Can have the official documents in the body?” 向驿丞看他锦衣华服,气度不凡,倒也不敢怠慢,忙正了正小帽,紧了紧围裙,倒握炒勺,彬彬有礼地道:“鄙人就是此地驿丞。足下何人,因何公干来到紫阳？可有公文在身？” Unfolds the tiger saying: „This officer Guizhou province Shiqian mansion earth shed show/unfolds tiger, must toward a Capital City roaming, go via the expensive/noble place.” 展虎道:“本官贵州石阡府土舍展虎,要往京城一游,路经贵地。” To relay station deputy one hear of access roads: „That may not do right by, this hall post is institute of the imperially appointed official contact living away from home, you not only non- imperially appointed official, and non-, because the royal government official business travels, our hall posts do not receive.” 向驿丞一听便道:“那可对不住了,这馆驿是朝廷命官往来寄住之所,你既非朝廷命官,又非因为朝廷公务往返,我们这馆驿可是不予接待的。” Did not say to relay station deputy false, but in fact was occupied by the person in this official hall post is not the contact official, a little human relations can move , the family round-trip of official, the person in hall post will usually also turn a blind eye. 向驿丞所言不假,不过实际上住这种官方馆驿的人绝不都是往来的官员,有点人脉关系就能入住,官员的家眷往返,馆驿的人通常也会睁一眼闭一眼。 This hall post is the royal government opens, without the profit, by clear(ly) in the later period, had become a very serious financial burden. However is infatuated with the research good food to relay station deputy, his Xiaotian is a kitchen, does not care to the matters of these worldly wisdom greatly. 这馆驿是朝廷开的,没有赢利,到了明后期,已经成了一个很严重的财政负担。不过向驿丞醉心研究美食,他的小天地就是厨房,对这些人情世故的事儿就不大在意。 Moreover, now Ye Xiaotian one group of must he unable to arrange justifiablily toward the hall post, which also has the place to arrange show/unfolds tiger these people, looks at the numerous of his entourage, but is not at to send under escort under the Ye Xiaotian troops quantity. 而且,现在叶小天一行人名正言顺地要往馆驿他都安排不下,哪还有地方安排展虎这些人,看他随行人员之众,可也不在押解叶小天的人马数量之下。 Wash Dongda to disgruntledly, with horsewhip finger/refers of Ye Xiaotian et al . Said: „What words this called, we cannot live, he?” 沐东大为不悦,用马鞭一指叶小天等人。道:“这叫什么话,我们不能住,那他呢？” Said to relay station deputy: „He is a headman, naturally can live!” 向驿丞道:“他是土司,自然能住！” Guo Jianwu flies into a rage saying: „Absurd, why the headman lives. Can't the earth shed live? What does this have to distinguish?” 郭建武勃然大怒道:“岂有此理,为什么土司住得。土舍就住不得？这有什么区别？” To the relay station deputy false smile said/tunnel: „Isn't this simple? Headman, is the royal government imperial edict aim appointment, is the imperially appointed official! But the earth shed, is the retainer who headman appoint. Must say the difference, that was just like this officer, this officer was the royal government appoints. The royal government must pay my monthly salary, I am the imperially appointed official. But my family wife, that is the officer marrying off and taking, I must pay her moon/month case, actually does not do the matter of royal government.” 向驿丞皮笑肉不笑地道:“这还不简单？土司,是朝廷敕旨任命的,是朝廷命官！而土舍,是土司自己任命的家臣。要说区别嘛,那就好比本官了,本官乃朝廷任命。朝廷要付我月俸,我就是朝廷命官。而我家娘子,那是本官自己聘娶的,我要付她月例,却不干朝廷的事。” Mu Dongqi must feel dizzy. Exclaiming: „What nonsense analogy, is the father your concubine?” 沐东气得发昏。吼道:“什么狗屁比喻,老子是你的小老婆么？” To the relay station deputy serious said/tunnel: „Concubine officer has accepted two, the most important point must be the beauty is excellent, under the foot so the look builds me not to want but actually.” 向驿丞一本正经地道:“小老婆本官已经纳过两个了,首要一点就得是姿色过人,足下这般相貌倒搭我也是不要的。” Mu Dong finds out the big hand, held his collar, roared: „Puts your mother's nonsense! You look for the father intentionally is cut by broken glass?” 沐东探出大手,一把抓住了他的衣领子,咆哮道:“放你娘的狗屁！你这是故意找老子的碴儿啦？” These two people said a word do not cope, from the beginning had the gunpowder taste, Mu Dong is used to the hometown domineeringly. Could not repress by this time again. However to relay station deputy is not what good nature, was seized the collar fiercely, roared spurted his face spittle. Also leapt one to brave to the relay station deputy anger. 这两个人言语不对付,从一开始就有火药味儿,沐东在家乡跋扈惯了。到了此时再也按捺不住。然而向驿丞也不是个什么好脾气,被人猛地揪住衣领,咆哮中喷了他一脸唾沫星子。向驿丞的火气也腾地一下冒了起来。 Brandishes the round-bottomed wok to relay station deputy, knocked ruthlessly in Mu Dong the head, loudly shouted: „Rolls your grandmother, a other place ethnic minority appointee, dares to act unruly to the domain of this officer!” 向驿丞抡起炒勺,就狠狠地敲在了沐东的头上,大喝道:“滚你姥姥的,一个外乡土官,敢到本官的地盘上来撒野！” Entrance these errand runners and minor employees are completely the natives, the provincialism is strong. In addition to the relay station deputy subordinate, where had the truth of standing at this time. Immediately supported, unfolds the tiger and Mu Dong and the others the subordinates sees to draw a sword immediately the sheath. 门口那些驿卒全部是本地人,乡土观念浓厚。再加上统统都是向驿丞的部下,这时哪有袖手旁观的道理。登时就拥了上来,展虎和沐东等人的部下一见立即拔刀出鞘。 Mu Dong was knocked dizzy by that round-bottomed wok. Staggers to fall one side, Guo Jianwu sneers to draw a sword, disdains the said/tunnel: „Depends on your range chicken earthenware dogs, the father moment time can kill a none!” 沐东被那一炒勺敲得头昏脑胀。踉跄着跌到一边,郭建武冷笑拔刀,不屑地道:“就凭你们这些土鸡瓦狗,老子片刻功夫就能杀个精光！” Violated the muddy vigor to relay station deputy, straightened one's neck saying: „Comes, you kill! Father's skull here, has the skill you to take away, his mother, I do not believe the royal government not to manage your to kill the officer to revolt, the whole families confiscate and behead.” 向驿丞犯起了浑劲儿,梗着脖子道:“来来来,你来杀！老子的脑壳就在这里,有本事你就拿去,他娘的,我就不信朝廷不办你个杀官造反,满门抄斩。” Ye Xiaotian vice- thousand always said to the skin lazily: „Sir skin, this noisy too does not make sense, no matter you also manages?” 叶小天懒洋洋地对皮副千总道:“皮大人,这闹的太不像话了,你也不管管？” The skin vice- thousand are always watching the fun grinningly, oneself donor spoke, is not good to stroke his face countenance, then wields the big hand, the sergeants very have the sword and spear to approach immediately forward, formed the potential of counter-encirclement to show/unfolds tiger et al . 皮副千总正笑嘻嘻地看热闹,自家金主发话了,倒不好拂他颜面,便把大手一挥,众军士立即挺起刀枪向前逼近,对展虎等人形成反包围之势。 The skin vice- thousand always loudly shouted: „This officer here, who dares to revolt, kills without the amnesty!” 皮副千总大喝道:“本官在此,谁敢造反,杀无赦！” Holds up the big bucket to refer to Guo Jianwu and the others to relay station deputy immediately: „He! Is they must revolt!” 向驿丞马上举起大勺向郭建武等人一指:“他！就是他们要造反！” Unfolds the tiger to hurry to go forward to persuade Guo Jianwu and Mu Dong, said to them: „Two do not need, for some minor matters and person disputed, we with, to look at his Ye Xiaotian died like a dog, why to cause complications.” 展虎赶紧上前劝说郭建武和沐东,对他们道:“两位不必为了些许小事与人争执,咱们一路跟来,就是为了看他叶小天不得好死,何必节外生枝。” Unfolds the tiger said is hitting the meaningful glance to two people secretly, two people remembered the show/unfolds tiger just to say the Ye Xiaotian burial ground in Ziyang, the anger then disappeared. Guo Jianwu waves resentfully, their troops have not then continued to go forward, avoided with begin the conflict to relay station deputy and skin vice- thousand total troops. 展虎一面说一面向二人暗暗打着眼色,二人想起展虎刚刚说过叶小天的葬身之地就在紫阳,火气便消了。郭建武悻悻地挥了挥手,他们的人马便没有继续上前,避免了与向驿丞和皮副千总的人马再起冲突。 Unfolds the tiger to sneer a sound said to relay station deputy: „You said that the hall post does not receive the earth shed, may unfold some line, each region hall post has not actually seen to reject me. The person who resembles your so unfeeling accident, this relay station deputy you must do for a lifetime.” 展虎对向驿丞冷笑一声道:“你说馆驿不接待土舍,可展某一路行来,各地馆驿却也未见拒绝过我。似你这般不通人情事故的人,这个驿丞你要做一辈子了。” Curls the lip to say to relay station deputy: „How does father future, worry with you?” 向驿丞撇嘴道:“老子前程如何,用你操心么？” Unfolds tiger cold snort/hum one, to Mu Dong and Guo Jian martial arts: „Walks, we seek the dwelling in addition!” Said one group of wharves, when first departs. Sees them to walk away to relay station deputy, turns around to look at Ye Xiaotian and skin again vice- thousand always, is then all smiles, intimate. 展虎冷哼一声,对沐东和郭建武道:“走,咱们另寻住处！”说罢一拨马头,当先离去。向驿丞眼看他们走远,转过身来再看叶小天和皮副千总,便笑容满面,亲热的很了。 Although he does not fear the outside ethnic minority appointee, but others overwhelm with numerical strength, just now really must begin, he must be at a disadvantage from the outset, luckily Ye Xiaotian and skin vice- thousand always act, this little comes under attack, this favor he is certainly clear. 他虽不怕外地土官,可人家人多势众,方才真要动起手来,他是要吃眼前亏的,幸亏叶小天和皮副千总出面,这才少挨了一顿打,这个人情他当然清楚。 Carries the round-bottomed wok to arrive in front of Ye Xiaotian and the others to relay station deputy, warm said/tunnel: „Sir leaf, Sir skin, many thanks two uphold justice the aid. These hicks, bluffed and blustered in the hometown, but also when really also had several jin (0.5 kg) component outside, I! Does not know high day in thick east and west!” 向驿丞拎着炒勺走到叶小天等人面前,热情地道:“叶大人,皮大人,多谢二位仗义援手。这些土包子,在家乡耀武扬威惯了,还真当自己在外面也有几斤份量,我呸！不知天高在厚的东西！” Despised the show/unfolds tiger and Mu Dong and the others to relay station deputy, said to the skin vice general: „Sir skin, my hall post is too small, more than 300 people, are only the person on the arrangement, let alone such Doma. However, I can look for a dwelling to you actually in addition, arranges the next 300 troops sufficiently......” 向驿丞鄙视了展虎、沐东等人一番,又对皮副将道:“皮大人,我这馆驿太小,三百多人,光是人就安排不下,何况还有这么多马。不过,我倒是可以给你们另找一个住处,足以安排得下三百人马……” The skin vice- thousand always rubbed rubbing hands, said: „That this lodging and diet money......” 皮副千总搓了搓手,道:“那这住宿、饮食钱……” Said to relay station deputy: „Naturally this officer pays! You felt relieved. There master and my ripe, I and he greeted well, the money of this lodging and diet, I and he settled accounts slowly are.” 向驿丞道:“自然本官支付！你放心。那儿的东家和我熟的很,我和他打声招呼就好,这住宿、饮食的钱,我和他慢慢结算就是。” The skin vice- thousand always one hear does not need him to spend wén coin, that what/anything matter was open to discuss. Immediately radiant said/tunnel: „So good, has the work to relay station deputy.” 皮副千总一听不用他花一文钱,那什么事都好商量了。马上眉开眼笑地道:“如此甚好,有劳向驿丞。” To Hong Chendao: „This has what/anything, the itself is my job, why to say thanks. Two Sirs please first sit for a while to the post, drink cup of tea, to some changes the body clothes then to lead you to go.” 向洪辰道:“这有什么,本就是我份内之事,何必言谢。两位大人请先到驿中小坐,喝杯茶水,向某换身衣裳便带你们前去。” * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ Town Ziyang is not big. The kids urinate in the city south can flow arrive at the city north, such small place can have the hall post to be good, possibly to be how big. Similarly, the restaurant of this place are also few, in city liveliest place two little building. Was the this county biggest restaurant. 紫阳县城不大。娃儿在城南撒泡尿都可以流到城北,这么小的地方能有馆驿就不错了,又怎么可能大得了。同样的,此地的酒楼也非常少,城中最繁华处一座二层小楼。就是本县最大的酒楼了。 This building called the orange the building, because Ziyang had the name of orange township since old times, money cedrat red as fire that this place produced, the fruit pulp tender meat was full, juice abundant and sour and sweet moderate, since Tang Dynasty was the palace high quality goods. 此楼叫橘楼,因为紫阳自古就有橘乡之称,此地出产的金钱橘皮红似火,瓤嫩肉满、汁水丰盈、酸甜适度,从唐代起就是宫廷贡品。 Unfolded the tiger to wrap the entire building, drank wine in the building with Mu Dong, Guo Jianwu, sent the person to go four cities to seek dwelling that can place their so many troops. 展虎包下了整座楼,与沐东、郭建武在楼上饮酒,又打发人出去四城寻找可以安置他们这么多人马的住处。 Before long some people return, return actually did not find the dwelling. But to his report/give report: „earth abandons the Sir, they went out of town, is brought by relay station deputy of that kitchen sample. Went to the city south orangery.” 不一会儿就有人回报,回报的却不是找到了住处。而是向他禀报:“土舍大人,他们出城了,由那个厨子样儿的驿丞带着。去了城南橘园。” Unfolds tiger one hear to pound on the table excitedly, laughs loudly: „Hahahaha......, the important matter becomes!” 展虎一听兴奋地一拍桌子,放声大笑:“哈哈哈哈……,大事成矣！” Mu Dong cannot bear complain: „Tiger elder brother, actually you have what/anything to plan, now can say, Cao show/unfolds Zhang San family/home shares weal and woe now. Has what secret also to want you to hide the truth from us.” 沐东忍不住抱怨道:“虎哥,你究竟有什么打算,现在可以说了吧,曹展张三家现在是休戚与共。有什么秘密还要你一直瞒着我们的。” Unfolds the tiger to hear that Ye Xiaotian entered his ambush finally, the mood is excellent. Then explained with a smile: „Two do not take it ill, is not the show/unfolds some are not willing to consider. Solid previously unfolded some cannot determine that he whether certainly fell into a trap, now can certainly say that knew with you.” 展虎听说叶小天终于进了他的埋伏,心情大好。便笑吟吟地解释道:“两位休怪,不是展某不肯相告。实是此前展某也不能确定他是否一定会在此间中计,如今当然可以说与你们知道了。” Unfolded the tiger filled the liquor to Mu Dong and Guo Jianwu, three people did one cup, unfolded the tiger then to explain complacently to them. 展虎给沐东和郭建武斟满了酒,三人干了一杯,展虎便得意洋洋地对他们解释起来。 Originally, in Governor leaf sentenced Ye Xiaotian is escorted to Capital City after the order of Son of Heaven judgment, the aspect that unfolds dragon Zhanhu, open/stretch Yuhan, the Cao Ruiyu four people to collect in together, after carefully analyzes one next, is going to have. 原来,在叶巡抚判了把叶小天押赴京城由天子裁断的命令之后,展龙展虎、张雨寒、曹瑞雨四人凑在一块儿,仔细分析了一下之后将要出现的局面。 In their opinion, the most important matter, disintegrates certainly the Mt. Woniu influence thoroughly, so long as can be defeated, defeat and scatters the Mt. Woniu influence incorporates even, even if Ye Xiaotian can not die by luck, he was still certainly finished. 在他们看来,最重要的事,当然是彻底瓦解卧牛山势力,只要能把卧牛山势力打败、打垮、打散甚而收编,即便叶小天能侥幸不死,他也一定完蛋。 Therefore three people decided, they must keep Shiqian and Tongren city, is not at while Ye Xiaotian, lying good range a group of people without a leader time, does not hesitate all Mt. Woniu to solve. 所以三人决定,他们一定要留在石阡和铜仁,趁叶小天不在,卧牛岭群龙无首的时候,不惜一切地卧牛山解决掉。 But Ye Xiaotian this disaster cannot certainly let off, particularly they are also clear, the emperor may punish Ye Xiaotian to give Guizhou province headman one to explain, but will make him pay with life by the life very much difficultly, but what they want is Ye Xiaotian dies. 但叶小天这个祸害当然也不能放过,尤其是他们自己也清楚,皇帝或许会严惩叶小天以给贵州众土司一个交待,但是很难会让他以命抵命,而他们想要的是叶小天死。 Therefore, they sent the show/unfolds tiger, and told him, no matter with what means that so long as possibly, killed Ye Xiaotian on the halfway, thus forever never recurring trouble. When where, what time suits starts, they are not certainly able to sentence in advance, how therefore should do specifically, they have not provided any comment, all adapts to changing circumstances depending on the show/unfolds tiger. 所以,他们又把展虎派了出来,并且告诉他,不管用什么办法,只要可能,就半路弄死叶小天,从而永绝后患。什么时间、什么地方、什么时机适合下手,他们当然无从预判,所以具体该如何去做,他们没有提供任何意见,全凭展虎随机应变。 Skin vice- thousand always that batch elite, although only 300 people, the strength can actually be as good as 1000 people, moreover protects to Ye Xiaotian really strictly, unfolds the tiger line, could not find the opportunity of starting, but he found out a rule at least, is no matter under what condition, this army to the Ye Xiaotian always being together personal protection, will not divide forces. 皮副千总那批精锐虽只三百人,战力却抵得上一千人,而且对叶小天保护甚严,展虎一路行来,根本找不到下手的机会,但他起码摸清了一个规律,就是不管什么条件下,这支军队都对叶小天形影不离贴身保护,绝不会分兵。 In this case, unfolded in the tiger heart to sprout a treacherous plan, from then on, the traveling schedule he will arrange the trusted aide to advance each time starting off, inquired the front situation. To Ziyang, he finally found the opportunity. 这种情况下,展虎心中萌生了一个毒计,从那以后,每次行程他都会安排心腹先行上路,打探前方情况。一直到了紫阳,他才终于找到了机会。 This county is very small, in the city does not have to recruit over hundred people hall posts and inn sufficiently, even the large cart shop is not so big, moreover inside or outside the city does not have others who the mansion rents, however has an orangery in the city south. 这个县城很小,城内没有足以招纳百人以上的馆驿和客栈,连大车店都没有这么大,而且城内城外没有大宅租赁的人家,但是在城南有个橘园。 Master surnamed Zhang of this orangery, called open/stretch Peng 。 Zhang this orangery, is responsible to the imperial family provides the tribute orange. At the present when the fall harvest season, Zhang just picked the tribute chrysanthemum, waits for the royal government to send people to approve and receive / and transport. 这个橘园的主人姓张,叫张朋。张家这处橘园,是负责向皇室提供贡橘的。而今正值秋收季节,张家刚刚采摘了贡菊,等着朝廷派人来验收、接运。 Zhang to plant money orange, the lid has many wigwams , indoor may be cold when the day the money orange of bonsai moves , the picking period may also be for the worker housing of employment. Takes a broad view at the entire Ziyang, only has here to hold the next more than 300 troops, but does not send to sleep outside the open country. 张家为了栽种金钱橘,盖有很多棚屋,既可在天冷时把盆栽的金钱橘移入室内,采摘期也可供雇佣的工人居住。放眼整个紫阳,唯有此处容纳得下三百多人马,而不致露宿野外。 Unfolds the tiger to inquire after this news, knows that his opportunity came, therefore, he spared no expense to buy five barrels of gunpowder from underworld gang, in the powder keg doped large number of nail and broken tiles. 展虎打听到这个消息之后,就知道他的机会来了,于是,他不惜重金从黑道手里买来了五桶火药,火药桶里又掺杂了大量的铁钉、碎瓷片儿。 These five barrels of gunpowder bury in the orangery under now condition best that three big rooms, he must explode torn to pieces Ye Xiaotian, delivers him to return to heaven! 这五桶火药如今就埋在橘园内条件最好的那三间大屋下面,他要把叶小天炸个支离破碎,送他归天！ : Fellow book friends, wishing your Mid-Autumn Festival are joyful!
