Blind person old perhaps Beiliang old soldier, is a crossbowman, after the flowed arrow hits a target a eye, then the revolutions was the cavalry, is average-performing, trades the meritorious the Beiliang weapons and rations to take in the by head does not act, before retiring , under has not saved the rich family property, only fished a disease, previously settled down in the city also calculates to have plenty of money, but cannot withstand that help/gang to toss about compared with he poorer more and pedantic uptight youngest brothers, died mostly must old permits investment coffin money, in the course of contacts, loner old permits on really no money, old perhaps locally born eastern Liaoning Jinzhou person, young then alone and forsaken, then Great Pillar of State Xu Xiao Projected on western Liaoning from Jinzhou, enters the male child pass/test from western Liaoning again, fights in the Central Plain, in the Spring and Autumn chaotic war, with old soldier that the old permits same time enlists, so long as can depend is not dying, achieved the enlistment or Colonel, before worst retirement, military official with no real duties who can receive clear martial Fuwei. 瞎子老许是个北凉老卒,本是一名弩手,被流矢射中一目后便转做了骑兵,战绩平平,在以头颅换功勋的北凉军实在拿不出手,以至于解甲归田前都没积攒下殷实家底,只捞了一身疾病,早先在城内定居还算手头宽裕,只是经不起那帮比他更穷酸拮据的老兄弟们折腾,大多数死了都得老许出资棺材钱,一来二去,孤家寡人的老许就真没什么银子了,老许是土生土长的辽东锦州人,年幼便孤苦伶仃,跟着大柱国徐骁从锦州打到了辽西,再从辽西入雄孩关,转战中原,春秋乱战中,许多跟老许相同时间入伍的老卒只要能赖着不死,都做到了参军或者校尉,最不济养老前都能领到个昭武副尉的武散官。 Therefore old perhaps old soldier, is actually not brave soldier. 所以说老许是个老卒,却不是悍卒。 Does not dare to put together the academic honor the head hitch in the belt, but can also gain the government position, is only the wealthy and powerful family juniors, old permits this type said no that on lives the senior worthless soldier who actually fears death absolutely corruptly, can not supervised army high-ranking military officers cut off the head, already lucky. 不敢把脑袋栓在裤腰带上去拼功名,还能赚来官职的,只是豪族子弟而已,老许这种说不上贪生却绝对怕死的老兵油子,能不被监军将校砍掉脑袋,已经算万幸。 old permits had an eye is also blind afterward, climbing mountains charking not careful being overpowered by a foul odor, this became outside the lane lane blind person old permits in mouth. What is most hapless after was blind person old permits blind, the room leaked meets continually the night rain, not careful has not shunted the steed hoof of sons of wealthy families in the bustling streets, stepping on cripple. 老许后来剩下一只眼睛也瞎了,上山烧炭不小心给熏坏的,这才成了巷里巷外嘴中的瞎子老许。最倒霉的是瞎子老许瞎了后,屋漏偏逢连夜雨,不小心在闹市没躲开膏粱子弟的一匹骏马蹄子,给踩成了瘸子。 That help/gang the sons of wealthy families who travel together with beautiful saw that the old man sways back and forth on the ground, but laughs loudly, blind person old permits wants to clench teeth to go all out, but when he gropes blindly the ground the shoulder pole, then heard the sound saying that which Enemy Repulsing Commandant son these sons of the influential were, is grandson who in which Capital City Sakuro, Crown Prince are washing, old permits threw the shoulder pole the same as weep and wail with the child, was repeatedly howling I damn, let person scalp tingles, even had the observers of pitying to give to run away in fear. A playboy shuts out old permits gua chirp, draws a sword to chop to cut, the Beiliang common social practice was valiant since old times, perhaps is these playboys, both hands strength only enough unties the waistband of Queen of Flowers star herdsman, so long as can pull out blade and sword, that was said absolutely cut then cuts, this point made many enter the Beiliang outside playboy not to adapt initially. 那帮携美同行的膏粱子弟见到老头在地上打滚,只是放声大笑,瞎子老许本来想咬牙拼命,可当他瞎摸到地上的扁担,便听到声音说那些公子哥是哪位折冲都尉的儿子,是哪位京城里著作郎、太子洗马的孙子,老许就扔了扁担跟孩子一样哭喊起来,一遍遍嚎着我早就该死了啊,让人头皮发麻,连一些心存怜悯的旁观者都给吓跑了。一个纨绔嫌弃老许呱噪,拔剑就要劈砍下去,北凉民风自古彪悍,便是那些纨绔,双手力气兴许只够解开花魁伶倌的腰带,可只要拔得动刀剑,那绝对是说砍便砍,这一点让许多初入北凉的外地纨绔十分不适应。 If old permits top of the head that sword cut at that time, then did not have Your Highness Heir to raise the Green Ant Wine matter today. 若当时老许头顶那一剑砍下去,便没有今天世子殿下提着绿蚁酒的事情了。 At that time Xu Fengnian passed by chance, the horses were more vigorous than that help/gang third-class playboy, the arrogance was more rampant hundred times, he does not want to mix this broken matter, but by old permits rending a few words fluttering: „Father's leg had not been helped Kameji child break by Western Chu that actually by the oneself person making lamely, God your mother same is blind with me!” 那时候徐凤年恰巧路过,马匹远比那帮三流纨绔更雄健,气焰自是更嚣张百倍,他本不想掺和这档子破事,只是被老许撕心裂肺的一句话给勾住:“老子的腿没被西楚那帮龟儿子打断,倒是被自己人给弄瘸了,老天爷你娘跟我一样瞎了眼啊！” Xu Fengnian has not made noise, but made the wicked slave wash out that group of brats, as for young master buddy how many arm how many legs that breaking had a high and respected position, can Your Highness Heir where manage, has the skill to be tied down by care of one's family Royal Residence to look for Xu Xiao to want money to compensate? Should better get the imperial decree to go. 徐凤年没有出声,只是让恶奴冲散了那帮兔崽子,至于跌断了养尊处优的公子哥们几条胳膊几条腿,世子殿下哪里管得着,有本事就拖家带口去王府找徐骁要银子赔偿去？最好领着圣旨去。 Behind old permits has not died, was taken away bewilderedly the treatment leg and foot, but before that horse's hoof, impulse that punctures, where is an old leg of old fogy can withstand, was broke thoroughly, in blind person old permits prepared to sit in the river bank small thatched hut waited for death, suddenly in the yamun the person said that every month provided to his 12 money, old permits led six months fearful and apprehensive, is emboldening to ask that Sir, the Sir said this was the new custom of Beiliang army, kindly treated old soldier. Afterward old permits asked a similarly half-dead old robe Ze, knew that this is the real matter, but they need to go to the yamen to draw money. 后面老许没死,莫名其妙被人带去医治腿脚,可那马蹄前刺下的冲劲,哪里是一个老家伙的老腿能承受的,算是彻底断了,在瞎子老许准备坐在河畔小茅屋里等死的时候,突然官衙里来人说每月发放给他一两银子,老许心惊肉跳领了半年后,才壮着胆子问那位大人,大人说了这是北凉军的新规矩,善待老卒。后来老许问了一个同样半死不活的老袍泽,得知这是真事,只不过他们都需要去衙门领钱。 old permits wondered, does the good person have the good report? But how we see are not a good person, young that little while kills and burns to plunder has not followed Great Pillar of State little to do. 老许就纳闷了,好人有好报？可咱怎么看也不是好人啊,年轻那会儿烧杀抢掠可没跟着大柱国少干。 old permits broke the leg, but leans on the self-made walking stick to walk reluctantly, the thatched hut by yamen that high official was told the servant has repaired, every year has not winterred will deliver a bed thick cotton-wadded quilt to come, the vegetable garden was handled by old permits assembles, 12 money are 1000 articles, old permits mouth is not tricky, at the end of the month the spare cash can also buy a meat dishes and wine, the easy life has flavorfully, present waiting for death may compared with just break leg that little while to want satisfied hundred times. 老许断了腿,但拄着自制拐杖还是可以勉强行走,茅屋被衙门那位大官吩咐下人修葺过,每年还未过冬就会送一床厚实棉被过来,菜园子被老许打理得凑合,一两银子便是一千文,老许嘴巴不刁,月底闲钱还能买点荤酒,小日子过得有滋有味,现在的等死可比刚断腿那会儿要惬意百倍。 Today old permits sits outside the room on the block of wood dozes off, hears to have a big voice to shout: „old permits old permits, drinks, touched only the duck in the river to you on the way, that called fertilizer.” 今天老许坐在屋外木墩子上打瞌睡,就听到有个大嗓门喊道:“老许老许,喝酒,顺路在河里给你摸了只鸭子,那叫一个肥。” The blind person old permits spirit inspires, the surnamed Xu boy came. Before this boy is, 45 years knew that it is said are climb a wall to look that the unmarried girl takes a bath to be caught, chases down the riverside, borrowed old permits thatched hut to hide hiding, has a not too big nor too small fragrant state, the person who blind person old permits knew Xu Boy mouth that Orchid Pavilion earthen platform or counter on which wine jars were kept family treasure, although could not see, but old permits ear was good, can always hear some lovers to gather together idly drooled the whisper, was said only that small girl these year of chests were also heavy several points, handsome that was sharpened little, the beautiful woman embryo was even more bright-colored to select, old permits the earthen platform or counter on which wine jars were kept has bought the distiller's grain, has smelled. The girl fragrance , is really nice-smelling, compared favorably with the signboard green plum liquor of Orchid Pavilion. 瞎子老许精神一振,姓徐的小子来了。这小子是前个四五年认识的,据说是爬墙看黄花闺女洗澡被逮,追杀到河边,就借老许的茅屋躲了躲,算是结下一段不大不小的香火情,瞎子老许知道徐小子嘴里那个兰亭酒垆小家碧玉的可人,虽说看不见,可老许耳朵不错,总能听到一些野汉子无所事事就聚在一起垂涎嘀咕,无外乎是说那小丫头这些年胸脯又沉甸甸了几分,小圆脸那是又削尖了几许,美人胚子愈发明艳出挑了,老许去酒垆买过酒糟,闻到过那妮子身上的香味,啧啧,真是好闻,都比得上兰亭的招牌青梅酒了。 When Xu Boy we are the champion «» years, for her was being expelled hitting, is not undeserved! If our old permits young dozens years old, where wheel does obtain Xu Boy to climb a wall? Acts as lookout to him also almost. 徐小子当我们是冠军《》年为了她被人撵着打,不冤枉！咱老许要是年轻个几十岁,哪里轮得到徐小子爬墙？给他望风还差不多。 „Previous place of pot in the room, plucks hairs to the duck remembers that do not throw in the river conveniently, was careful that your front leg walks, my here back leg thatched hut was torn down.” old permits received the wine pot, smelled smelling, is content to say with a smile: „The green plum of this Green Ant cannot compare Orchid Pavilion earthen platform or counter on which wine jars were kept, may compared with the distiller's grain probably.” “锅在屋里老地方,给鸭子拔毛记得别随手丢河里,小心你前脚走,我这边后脚茅屋就被拆掉。”老许接过酒壶,嗅了嗅,知足笑道:“这绿蚁比不上兰亭酒垆的青梅,可比酒糟还是要强很多。” The guest twisting and breaking the duck stopper of neck cherished to blind person old permits, said ill-humoredly: „Plucks hairs must I make a move? I boil water.” 那客人把拧断了脖子的鸭子塞到瞎子老许怀中,没好气道:“拔毛还得我出手？我烧水去。” In old permits hand had the liquor, is good to speak, leans on the walking stick to give the duck to pluck hairs. 老许手中有了酒,好说话,拄着拐杖就去给鸭子拔毛。 Soon, in the thatched hut then the fragrance fills the air, old permits is gnawing a greasy duck leg, smiles to ask: „Xu Boy, should have more than one year not to see, your fellow is not missing for three years is a news entire year, what job is? Listens to old permits urging, should not be dishonorable, the peeping unmarried girl takes a bath anything's good, the unmarried girl does not lose in any case, if the brandish sword makes the spear/gun, but did not say. Did not say this, said your boy estimated does not listen to advice, knows that could not drink your liquor white/in vain, said to look, this time wants to listen to anything, old permits this age cannot say that several times, can say that many were many.” 不多时,茅屋内便香气弥漫,老许啃着一根油腻鸭腿,笑问道:“徐小子,该有一年多没见了吧,你这家伙不是失踪三年便是消息一整年的,做什么营生？听老许的劝,可别伤天害理,偷看闺女洗澡什么的还好,反正闺女也不掉块肉,如果耍刀弄枪的,可就不好说了。不说这个,说了你小子估计也不听劝,知道白喝不了你的酒,说说看,这次想听什么,老许这个岁数也说不了几次,能说多少是多少。” That person gnaws the duck meat to say with a smile: „Said that looks at eastern Liaoning, my ancestor in that side, is Jinzhou.” 那人啃着鸭肉笑道:“说说看辽东,算起来我祖上在那边,就是锦州。” Can so loiter bored, naturally was Your Highness Heir Xu Fengnian. 能这般无聊逛荡的,自然是世子殿下徐凤年了。 Blind person old permits haha said with a smile: „Jinzhou can I not be ripe? Entire eastern Liaoning one morality, do not look that ten commanding officers have nine to shout poorly with the royal government, is actually not poor, poor, only then our these do not have the field, the difference has not only revolted.” 瞎子老许哈哈笑道:“锦州我会不熟？整个辽东都一个德性,别看十个都督有九个都在跟朝廷喊穷,其实一点都不穷,穷的只有我们这些没田的,就只差没造反了。” The Xu Fengnian knitting the brows say/way asked: „According to the law isn't each soldiers has 40 mu to open up wasteland? Eastern Liaoning is I toward deserving the danger place, the plain wilderness looks at the thousand li (500 km), is hard to guard, then abandoning Beimang pushes directly into, north then does not have limiting of entrance, therefore Liaoning Dong'an, then the Central Plain travel fatigue is motionless, harasses distantly wildly, then world gold/metal Guhu said. Rebellion? These years had not heard that eastern Liaoning has the slight tumult.” 徐凤年皱眉道问道:“按律不是每个士卒都有四十亩屯田？辽东是我朝当之无愧的危地,平原旷野一望千里,难以据守,弃之则北莽长驱直入,北地便无门庭之限,所以辽东安,则中原风尘不动,辽野扰,则天下金鼓互鸣。造反？这些年没听说辽东有丝毫骚动啊。” old permits jokes: „Xu Boy you do not understand, your genteel thing, my old permits cannot understand, which scholar there hear are you at? I only know I leave eastern Liaoning time, Liaoning Dongtun health/guard 21, western Liaoning, only then six health/guard, did not say western Liaoning, eastern Liaoning 21 protect for a year to store grains 1 million stones, do how many stones fall on our pocket? Xu Boy you think that did not say the eastern Liaoning big commanding officers, guard the commanding officer and commanding officer to know the qian matter and director Colonel these great people, is seven eight officials, must be some private service station troops to change to select the deal of channel, if did not act without authorization the water conservation, to open up wasteland rich gives to occupy, was the money of where coming filial piety above? Great Pillar of State assumed the entire Liaoning in the past, to two natives of Liaoning that is the rare good fortune, Great Pillar of State walks, who manages the soldiers life, many side army books are sent to frontier service eastern Liaoning to exile to defend by the crime, or who is willing to go to the place of eastern Liaoning this bitter cold to live? Once went, who thinks has seriously the field to have the grain, I was the Jinzhou people do not have the half a point paddies, these bystanders, don't thinks.” 老许讥笑道:“徐小子你懂个屁,你这文绉绉的东西,我老许听不懂,你在哪个读书人那里听来的？我只知道我离开辽东的时候,辽东屯卫二十一,辽西只有六卫,不说辽西,辽东二十一卫一年屯粮百万石,有几石是落在我们这些人口袋的？徐小子你想啊,不说辽东大都督、镇守都督、都督同知佥事、指挥校尉这些大人物,便是一些七品八品的官员,都要做些私役屯军改挑渠道的勾当,若不专擅水利、把膏腴屯田都给占了,哪来的银子去孝敬上边？大柱国当年坐镇全辽,对两辽人来说那是罕见的幸事,大柱国一走,谁管士卒死活,很多边军本就是发配到辽东以罪谪戍,要不谁愿意去辽东这苦寒之地过日子？一旦去了,谁当真会以为就有田有粮,我是锦州人都没半分田地了,这些个外人,就更甭想了。” Xu Fengnian said with a smile lightly: „This may be unable to revolt. Eastern Liaoning is poor, was used to painstakingly, so long as there is a half food to eat, no one is glad to raise the standard of revolt.” 徐凤年轻笑道:“这可造不了反。辽东贫苦,苦惯了,只要有半口饭吃,就没人乐意揭竿而起。” old permits sighed, „not really must starve to death, who was glad unable to pass with the life, but got down again, eastern Liaoning was really difficult saying that I left Jinzhou already about 30 years, endured for 30 years.” 老许叹息一声,“不真的要饿死,谁乐意跟命过不去,可再这么下去,辽东真难说啊,我离开锦州已经将近三十年,忍了三十年了。” Eastern Liaoning since old times was hundred battlefields, so-called vigorous and mighty strides dragon Xiang, used discretion. The world safety often is two Liaoning, the Xu Xiao expostulation does not hesitate to exhaust the strength of the world to defend it, but government and people high and low few is willing to be serious. This did not say that no one cannot see stake, was only the world situation temporarily calm, 50 years hundred years later was unconstrained, said that what made what in Dang lower official position to have what benefit? 辽东自古便是百战地,所谓虎步龙骧,高下在心。天下安危常系两辽,徐骁谏言不惜殚天下之力守之,可朝野上下没几个愿意当回事。这不是说没人看不出其中利害关系,只是天下局势暂时大定,五十年百年以后如何跌宕,说什么做什么于当下官位有何裨益？ Xu Fengnian said in a soft voice: „old permits, you said some local conditions and social customs of eastern Liaoning again.” 徐凤年轻声道:“老许,你再说些辽东的风土人情。” old permits tells the truth, spills the beans, waits for a pot to cook the duck to eat cleanly, old permits is also much more tired, but most energetic air/Qi used on coping with the duck meat. 老许有一说一,竹筒倒豆子,等一锅炖鸭吃得一干二净,老许也累得够呛,不过大部分精神气都用在对付鸭肉上头了。 old permits wipes the mouth to say finally: „Great Pillar of State entered Beiliang in the past, that may really be powerful, how does Royal Consort have a poem to mention?” 老许最后抹嘴道:“大柱国当年入北凉,那可真是威风凛凛,王妃有句诗怎么说来着？” Xu Fengnian said with a smile: „azure ox boarding thousand chariots, the child holds the mulberry.” 徐凤年笑道:“青牛道上车千乘,旗下孩童捧桑椹。” old permits is leaning on the walking stick, a face is charmed. 老许拄着拐杖,一脸神往。 Xu Fengnian leaves behind the wine pot, goes out of the thatched hut quietly. 徐凤年留下酒壶,悄悄走出茅屋。 Qing Niao stands in the distant place, looks distantly Your Highness Heir walks slowly. Comes to the riverside thatched hut to accompany by her each time, she also never asked why your highness must do with name blind old soldier. 青鸟站在远处,遥遥看着世子殿下缓缓走来。每次来河边茅屋都由她陪同,她也从来不问殿下为何要与一名目盲老卒打交道。 Xu Fengnian sees the Qing Niao chilly face, the look is somewhat absent-minded. 徐凤年看到青鸟的清冷脸庞,眼神有些恍惚。 In the past blind person old permits in the thousand chariots team, the leg had not broken. 当年瞎子老许在千乘队伍中,腿还没断。 The child also holds the mulberry to raise the head to ask that mother is delicious. 那孩童还捧着桑椹抬头问娘亲好不好吃。 Qing Niao was looked somewhat blurry, Xu Fengnian bit her cheeks suddenly, hee said with a smile: „Delicious, has the mulberry flavor.” 青鸟被看得有些迷糊,徐凤年冷不丁咬了一口她的脸颊,嘻笑道:“好吃,有桑椹的味道。” The floating astronomy thanked the support of fellow book friends, your support was we biggest power 飘天文学感谢各位书友的支持,您的支持就是我们最大的动力
