LNMTL needs user funding to survive Read More

Song Yujing was in an examination on catches Tinglang, although was young, only 25 years old, actually greatly online had been dormant for 12 years in of Li Mibi knitting, did not have the careless mistake, can therefore monitor extremely Xu Beizhi near the top in vermilion Wang list. 宋玉井是一名考评中上的捕蜓郎,虽然年纪不大,仅二十五岁,却已经在李密弼编织的那张大网上蛰伏了十二年,从无纰漏,因此才得以监视在朱魍名单上极为靠前的徐北枳 Beimang vast in territory, but catches Tinglang and seizes the butterfly female few several hundred people, if everyone must follow closely one-on-one, is rather beset with problems, sees importance of Xu Beizhi sufficiently in shadow prime minister Li Mibi mind, Song Yujing stared at this Xu Family born juniors already six years, perhaps is in the world to Xu Beizhi living habits most familiar existence. After Xu Beizhi comes of age, then goes out frequently enjoys the beauties of nature, this time carries to wait on child Wangmeng the stream two to ride the journey, at first how Song Yujing had not felt exceptionally, in vermilion Wang the code name six Ruoshui thatched huts spread that astonishing news, Song Yujing could be said as such as was struck by lightning, northern institute king Xu Huainan cut off the head, the person a different place! 北莽版图辽阔,而捕蜓郎和捉蝶女才寥寥数百人,若是人人都要单对单盯梢,未免过于捉襟见肘,足以见得徐北枳在影子宰相李密弼心目中的重要性,宋玉井盯了这名徐家庶出子弟已经六年,恐怕是世上对徐北枳生活习性最为熟悉的存在。徐北枳及冠以后便经常出门游山玩水,这一次携带侍童王梦溪两骑出行,宋玉井起先也并没有觉得如何异常,只是当朱魍内部代号六的弱水茅舍传出那个惊人消息,宋玉井可以说是如遭雷击,北院大王徐淮南给人割去头颅,人首异处! The head of Beimang first powerful minister is still in years past missing! 昔年北莽第一权臣的头颅至今下落不明! With toward has rushed to the Ruoshui source with Xu Huainan for officer many years of lord Li Mibi personally, stays in the thatched hut, Song Yujing was the core figure who controlled the Beimang dynasty secret, very clear Li Mibi from rising arrived at the northern institute king of being on the decline to relate gradually good with this, might be called friendship, therefore these years seemingly strict surveillance thatched huts, actually also sent out a vermilion Wang number-one killer section of willow tree in name, not other were skilled in sought for the traces the role, section of willow Shanchang kills people, was naturally good at killing to travel together, was protects Xu Huainan not to hit a person when he is down by the sovereign tent/account ancestor and relative actually, that cavalry crack force also gave orders by the Xu Huainan former subordinates military officers, can say. Xu Huainan after official the day also passes calculates comfortably enjoyable, had Li Mibi to check personally, is insufficient to have does not favor the Gossip of northern institute king spreading to the imperial palace royal court, Song Yujing has thought whole world can want the Xu Huainan life, Her Imperial Majesty did not have others except for again, but vermilion Wang usually was your majesty eradicated of dissident habitually using in the sleeve the blade, since were not vermilion Wang, who can be? Song Yujing broke the head unable to think through, does not dare to think deeply. Appeared with the huge secret Song Yujing, several examinations did not lose in his raising bamboo pole men and women, male three female two, Song Yujing is given the symbol to transfer the treasured vase gold/metal toad two state all spider web influences temporarily, military power that in addition 1200 rode, Song Yujing grasped the power without the hand the excitement, was trembling. 徐淮南同朝为官多年的主子李密弼已经亲自赶赴弱水源头,就在茅舍住下,宋玉井身为掌控北莽王朝秘密的核心人物,十分清楚李密弼跟这位由如日中天渐渐到日薄西山的北院大王关系不俗,堪称君子之交,故而这些年名义上看似严密监视茅舍,却也只是派出朱魍头号杀手一截柳,并非其他精于找寻蛛丝马迹的的角色,一截柳擅长杀人,自然也擅长杀同行,实则是保护徐淮南不被皇帐宗亲落井下石,那支铁骑劲旅也由徐淮南旧部将领发号施令,可以说徐淮南致仕以后日子过得还算舒坦写意,有李密弼亲自把关,不至于有不利于北院大王的流言蜚语传入皇宫王庭,宋玉井一直以为全天下能要徐淮南性命的,除了女帝陛下再无他人,可朱魍素来是陛下铲除异己的那把惯用袖中刀,既然不是朱魍,会是谁?宋玉井打破脑袋也想不通,也不敢去深思。与天大秘密一起出现在宋玉井这边的,还有数名考评不输于他的提竿男女,男三女二,宋玉井被临时授符可以调动宝瓶金蟾两州所有蛛网势力,外加一千两百骑的兵权,宋玉井毫无手握大权的激动,只有战战兢兢。 Xu Huainan dies, a slight move in one part that may affect the whole situation, collapsing of this Beimang mainstay, is doomed the surging temple. Before Xu Family, is supports by Xu Huainan, most descendants have not taken acts, only Xu Beizhi does not show one's self, key man who actually haunches the family summer beam only hopefully, is grasps invites, the lord had not clarified in the letter/believes, needs Song Yujing oneself to grasp the strength weight. Song Yujing felt quickly this duty the thorniness, except for waiting on child Wangmeng the stream, Xu Beizhi vanishes with the student of that strange face unexpectedly baseless, Song Yujing first dispersed the big net to catch fish, will raise the bamboo pole to dispatch toward the gold/metal toad state south most probably or searches or blocks off. If not waits on the child to continue to go south, rather than turned around toward north, Song Yujing can be free from worry directly convenient, only kept one to seize the butterfly female track to wait on the child, just like became a waiting on child of board game piece to enter gold/metal Chanzhou the frontier fortress by the treasured vase state, the crosswise line went to several hundred li (0.5 km) again, finally unexpectedly was northbound, stopped slightly, continued to go toward south, walked the entire ten-day time, carried over a bewildered big circle. In this period Song Yujing according to waiting on the strange trend of child, does not dare to treat it lightly, set up and overthrows the speculation of oneself unceasingly repeatedly, several changes ordered, was not only he, almost all raised the bamboo pole to follow exhausted, occasionally met, on their faces did not have the complaint, Song Yujing also knows that these ate the person not to spit fellow difficult insurance of bone are not the unstated criticism are innumerable, many people proposed that massacred to wait on the child directly, settled simply, in Song Yujing the heart ridiculed speaks irresponsibly and sarcastically, has not admitted the suggestion. Before the truth surfaces, Song Yujing did not want to split in Xu Beizhi, a julid wriggles even after being cut dead, Xu Family this big tree even must but actually, not be the things within 1-2 years, particularly Xu Huainan died a violent death, related who cloud Zhewu covered Her Imperial Majesty not to have in that throat with Xu Huainan the fishbone, perhaps also wanted to seal/confer bestows to comfort Xu Family that group of clothes eating insects. 徐淮南一死,牵一发而动全身,这根北莽中流砥柱的坍塌,注定要激荡庙堂。徐家之前都是由徐淮南支撑,绝大多数子孙没有一个拿得出手,唯独徐北枳至今不显山不露水,却是唯一有希望撑起家族大梁的关键人物,是抓是请,主子在信上没有讲明,都需要宋玉井自己去把握力道轻重。只是宋玉井很快就感觉到这趟任务的棘手,除了侍童王梦溪,徐北枳与那名陌生脸孔的书生竟然凭空消失,宋玉井第一时间就撒开大网捞鱼,将大半提竿派遣往金蟾州南部或寻觅或堵截。若非侍童继续南下,而不是掉头往北,宋玉井直接就可以更加省事省心,仅留一名捉蝶女跟踪侍童,俨然成为一枚棋子的侍童由宝瓶州入金蟾州边塞,再横向行去数百里,最后竟是北行,稍作停留,才继续往南而去,走了整整一旬时光,带出一个莫名其妙的大圈子。期间宋玉井按照侍童的诡异走向,不敢掉以轻心,不断反复树立和推翻自己的推测,几次更改命令,不光是他本人,几乎所有提竿都跟着精疲力竭,偶尔碰头,他们脸上没有怨言,宋玉井也知道这些吃人不吐骨头的家伙难保不是腹诽无数,其中不乏有人提议直接杀掉侍童,简单了事,宋玉井心中讥讽站着说话不腰疼,并未接纳建议。在真相浮出水面之前,宋玉井不希望交恶于徐北枳,百足之虫死而不僵,徐家这棵大树即便要倒,也绝不是1-2内的事情,尤其是徐淮南暴毙,跟徐淮南关系云遮雾罩的女帝陛下没了那根喉中鲠,说不定还要封赏宽慰徐家那帮蛀虫。 How Song Yujing could not expect that Xu Beizhi on has followed behind waiting on the virgin buttocks distantly, the route was similar, but maintained one day strength of legs distance, Xu Beizhi put on the dragon to the cheek of guy, Xu Fengnian also trade one from Xu Fengnian, no longer shouldered the book box, changed a travel bag to make the servant appearance Xu Beizhi conduct the back, two people in the small tavern feed that gold/metal Chanzhou found a quiet oasis in a crowded place, Xu Beizhi hear to let today at first wait on the child to make the bait, although has not rejected, in the heart had looked at several points lowly, was only the line, saw him in the desolate outskirts range several times with only vermilion robe. Demon with the strange hand signal exchange, Xu Beizhi reexamines thoroughly has this daring one person alone to go to Beimang future Beiliang Prince. 宋玉井如何都料想不到徐北枳一直就遥遥跟在侍童屁股后头,路线大致相同,只不过都保持一日脚力路程,徐北枳徐凤年手上戴上了虬须大汉的面皮,徐凤年亦是换了一张,不再背负书箱,换了一只行囊让仆人模样的徐北枳背上,两人今日在一座金蟾州闹中取静的小酒馆进食,徐北枳起先听闻要让侍童做诱饵,虽然没有拒绝,心中已经低看了几分,只是一路行来,几次在荒郊野岭见他跟一只朱袍魔物用古怪手势交流,徐北枳才彻底重新审视起这名胆敢孤身赴北莽的未来北凉王 Two people sit in the tavern near the window position, seems like how the attitude chatted the military situation secret to transmit comfortably, Xu Beizhi started to be over-fond of wine recently, will seize the opportunity slightly to think several cups, as for what liquor, was the good wine is the blue ruin, non- dietary restriction, but Xu Fengnian looked each time he drank cannot pull out an excrement appearance with the squatting latrine pit, is looking uncomfortably. Xu Beizhi drinks into the abdomen, only thought that the having mind filled with fever burnt, cannot bear scoff at one, this said slowly: You guess that you cut to kill the demon thanks spirit incident, thatched hut here learns the news, how much silver money spent?” 两人坐在酒馆临窗位置,看似意态闲适聊起了军情秘事如何传递一事,徐北枳最近开始贪杯,一逮住机会就会小酌几杯,至于什么酒,是佳酿是劣酒,也都不忌口,不过每次徐凤年看他喝酒都跟蹲茅坑拉不出屎一个模样,瞧着就难受。徐北枳喝酒入腹,只觉得满腹烧烫,忍不住嗤了一声,这才慢慢说道:“你猜你斩杀魔头谢灵一事,茅庐这边获知消息,花了多少银钱?” Xu Fengnian said with a smile: Can have 120 gold?” 徐凤年笑道:“总得有一百两黄金吧?” Xu Beizhi shakes the head saying: cash does not have flower, this matter Capital City Yelyu Zidi say in the brothel, quick took the thatched hut.” 徐北枳摇头道:“一文钱都没有花,这件事由京城耶律子弟在青楼说出口,很快就捎到了茅舍。” Xu Beizhi also asked: You guess again the thatched hut determined you had stayed a period of time in Dunhuang City, spent many.” 徐北枳又问道:“你再猜茅庐去确定你曾经在敦煌城呆过一段时日,花了多少。” Xu Fengnian thinks, I guess several hundred two gold.” 徐凤年想了想,“我还是猜几百两黄金。” Xu Beizhi said with a smile: Was short, is roughly 920 gold.” 徐北枳笑道:“少了,约莫是九百两黄金。” Xu Fengnian said: „Under really gives up the initial capital.” 徐凤年啧啧道:“真舍得下血本。” Xu Beizhi cannot drink the liquor obviously, the drinking imposing manner is actually heroic, drinks completely, knocks gently fully in the cup is on the grease stains cleaning not net desktop, looks to out of the window, appears a rough facial features coarse man because of the taking root cheek, the look is unexpectedly gentle like woman, fortunately only then Xu Fengnian with him face-to-face, this does not know the scholar who when can the amazing the world with a single brilliant feat world know is filled with emotion: „To look for a spy child who is skilled in changed/easy appearance/allow, is no different looks for a needle in a haystack, I raised the lampwick with the grandfather several times calculated all night your line of march, that days, his energetic air/Qi is very full, jokes such hide-and-seek, when with his young has eaten the southern polished glutinous rice dumpling, pours also has to chew the vigor. You possibly do not know, imitates vermilion Wang who Liyang Zhao Gou becomes, actually did not stem from a Li Mibi person of hand, the grandfather once helped build the big frame, Li Mibi can become the empress's first officials close to the throne, was honored as the shadow prime minister and ninth holds the climate and phenomena of the solar terms, the grandfather had half of merit. They, the scholar who has unrecognized talent in Central Plain Spring and Autumn.” 徐北枳明明喝不惯酒,喝酒气势倒是豪迈,一口饮尽,将杯子轻轻敲在满是油渍擦拭不净的桌面上,望向窗外,因为生根面皮而显得粗犷面容的一个糙汉子,眼神竟是如女子般柔和,所幸只有徐凤年跟他面对面,这位不知何时才能一鸣惊人天下知的读书人感慨万千:“想要找一个精通易容的谍子,无异于大海捞针,我跟爷爷数次挑灯通宵去推算你的行进路线,那段日子,他老人家精神气很足,戏言这样的捉迷藏,就跟他年轻时吃过的南方糯米团子,倒也有嚼劲。你可能不知,仿照离阳赵勾而成的朱魍,其实不是出自李密弼一人之手,爷爷曾经帮忙打造了大框架,李密弼能够成为女帝第一近臣,被誉为影子宰相和第九位持节令,爷爷有一半功劳。他们两人,都是在中原春秋怀才不遇的读书人。” At this point, Xu Beizhi slightly makes the stop, looks to Xu Fengnian, raises the skill of gentleman, Empress Murong is the first under heaven person who deserves, Zhao Family Son of Heaven is not bad, Beiliang Prince.” 说到这里,徐北枳略作停顿,望向徐凤年,“养士的本事,慕容女帝是当之无愧的天下第一人,赵家天子也不差,北凉王。” The Xu Fengnian section said with a smile: He, big uneducated person, furthermore a Spring and Autumn war, the itself/Ben is military person cavalry's competition with pen scholar, after overthrowing the wealthy and prominent family bold valve, the scholars are homeless , without the tree may depend on, naturally bears a grudge Xu Xiao, offered services to this slaughter not to mention.” 徐凤年截口笑道:“他啊,大老粗,再者春秋一战,本就是武夫铁骑跟笔杆子文士的较劲,推倒了高门豪阀后,士子们无家可归,无树可依,自然记恨徐骁,就别提去投效这个屠子了。” Xu Beizhi shakes the head saying: Raises the gentleman also to divide two types, raises Guishi, raises the impoverished scholar. Must know gentleman view, most starts also is only roaming Shi, for example these because of maneuvering among groups, but kept the political opportunists of history, in all of various schools of thought showed off the persuasive speaker of lips and tongue, afterward the scholars gathered the powerful family, started to have a high and respected position, now the building has leaned, majority for rice beam/sorghum scheme, let alone the temple rise of impoverished scholar class was the general trend, Beiliang Prince a lot were not good to be done, you can. The world scholars, are your family listened to the ten million tail koi of moist pavilion, now is interlinked like that hear of moist pavilions and rivers and streams, raises the koi and wild carp lives together with different nationalities, if you can select a few, may accomplish. Since old times the adviser request shielded in the enlightened ruler, wanted to ride the dragon to borrow potential only, skyrockets.” 徐北枳摇头道:“养士也分两种,养贵士,养寒士。需知士这个说法,最开始也仅是游士,例如那些因纵横捭阖而名留青史的纵横家,诸子百家中搬弄唇舌的说客,后来士子相聚成门阀,才开始养尊处优,如今大厦已倾,大多数就得为稻粱谋,何况寒士阶层的庙堂崛起是大势所趋,北凉王很多事情不好做,你可以。天下士子,本是你家听潮阁的千万尾锦鲤,如今就像那听潮阁与江河相通,豢养锦鲤与野鲤杂处,你若能拣选其中少数,就可成事。自古谋士托庇于明主,不外乎想要乘龙借势,扶摇直上。” Xu Fengnian said with a smile: You, if to Xu Xiao said that this kind of major principle, he can be in front of your to doze off.” 徐凤年笑道:“你要是跟徐骁说这类大道理,他能当着你的面打瞌睡。” Xu Beizhi closes with a smile. 徐北枳一笑置之。 Ruoshui thatched hut, a skinny old man who puts on a magnificent and expensive Sichuan brocade heavy rushes after the national capital at the same night, has sat in the water's edge, the side then cut off Xu Huainan of head. 弱水茅舍,一名穿一身华贵蜀锦的干瘦老者从京畿重地连夜赶到后,就一直坐在水边,身边便是被割去头颅的徐淮南 Old person own self-examination crosses around the wound and thatched hut, let leave on waving hand/subordinate far, only left behind a young maid who is carrying no wick lantern, did not seem to want the unnecessary person to disturb him and dead old friend. 老人亲自查过伤口和茅庐四周,就挥手让手下离远了,仅留下一名提着无灯芯灯笼的年轻婢女,似乎不想有多余人打搅他与死去老友。 In the curtain of night, the old person extends withered such as the arm of old bamboo, the finger is touching the efflorescence temple, muttered: „The young time arrives at Beimang that the disorder comes up in great numbers and from all sides together, you said that must make eternity famous feudal official who can on the sword shoes the palace enter the palace does not become, but also laughs at me to be narrowminded, does not achieve the great accomplishment, follows to play the schemes and tricks behind you on the line, but can also have the peaceful death law. You have a look, now how, I can still the brocade clothes travel by night, was eight holds the climate and phenomena of the solar terms and 12 big General is seeing me , behind only dared to scold me several dead without a heir dead like a dog. You, have the courage to rush home for a relative's funeral to throw over the descendants who to you hemp wears mourning clothes continually not to have one.” 夜幕中,老人伸出干枯如老竹的手臂,手指抚摸着霜白鬓角,喃喃自语:“年轻时候一起来到乱象横生的北莽,你说要做成可以剑履上殿入朝不趋的千古名臣,还笑话我气量小,不是做大事的,跟在你后头耍耍阴谋诡计就行,还能有个好死法。你看看,现在如何了,我仍是能够锦衣夜行,便是八位持节令和十二位大将军见着了我,也就只敢背后骂我几句断子绝孙不得好死。你呢,连有胆子给你奔丧披麻戴孝的子孙都没一个。” You think highly of Xu Beizhi, an institute studies completely gives him, read in the friendship, I have wanted under the pain hesitant the killer, slow old man, or did you hold a dream to me? I also let off him.” “你器重徐北枳,一身所学尽付与他,念在情分上,我一直犹豫要不要痛下杀手,徐老儿,要不你托个梦给我?我也就放过他了。” originally thought I can fight valiantly half, must guarantee you dead after her, you you, how patted the buttocks to go ahead, but also walked so aggrievedly, what attempted? Repays a debt? Whom gives back to? The people die such as the lamp to extinguish, I do not get to the bottom, avoid you scolded me under. Then, I was actually relaxed. You could rest assured that not to mention Xu Beizhi, the Xu Family more than 200 lives, I will leave behind 1-2 people to you when the time comes after all.” 本以为我能拼了半条命,也要保你死在她之后,你啊你,怎么拍拍屁股说走就走了,还走得如此憋屈,图什么?还债?还给谁?人死如灯灭,我就不刨根问底了,省得你在下头骂我。如此一来,我倒是轻松了。你放心,且不说徐北枳,到时候徐家两百多条性命,我总归会给你留下1-2的。” The old person who talked over sighed, silent for a long time, lifted the arm. 自顾自念叨的老人叹息一声,沉默许久,抬了抬手臂。 Raises the blind deaf-mute servant girl of lantern then to bend the waist immediately, will not have the lantern of lights to place the power and influence dreadful old person at present, dispatches fine small scissors subsequently. 提着灯笼的盲聋哑女婢便立即弯腰,将没有灯火的灯笼放在权势滔天的老人眼前,继而递出一把精致小剪。 In the cage has dozens butterflies. 笼中有几十只蝶。 The old person fishes out one, both hands such as under the old woman lamp embroiders shivers like that gently, cuts two halves from the butterfly middle. 老人摸出一只,双手如老妪灯下绣花那般轻轻颤抖,从蝴蝶中间中剪成两半。 „After you die, in this cage the butterfly, is biggest on number that peaceful command.” “你死以后,这笼中蝶,就数那位太平令最大只喽。”
