Not a high-profile carriage along the imperial road, moves to the Zhao Family jar outside imperial city main entrance slowly, imperial city out one, various both sides trees to spread the writing Zhenwu's two memorial arches famously, Ministry of War Ministry of Justice and other yamen were martial Jiyin, after left side Zhenwu Memorial arch, Ministry of Rites household section Hanlin Academy wait/etc. composed a piece of prose writing is positive, spreads the article memorial arch after right side, spread the article two characters once to stem from Mr.'s Song hand, now also exchanges a new inscribed horizontal tablet. Today is early extraordinary toward the specification, nearby the Zhao Family jar almost does not have the place to stick an awl, was full of various type horse-drawn vehicles to stand all kinds servants, the Liyang Dynasty 20 years governed the peace, had many unwritten customs toward parking early, according to the grades and salary title height division, the position high carriage stayed, was nearer to the sovereign city wall, inferiority was in turn increasingly estranged, the civil and military officials who many government positions were suspended in midair mostly knew thoroughly toward meeting the situation, had an audience with the emperor on the walk simply, did not injure friendly, was insufficient to seize the position to dispute with whom to be red in the face, the Son of Heaven under foot, was not greatly easy for the officer in Capital. 下马嵬驿馆位于内外城之间,距离中轴线上的雍安门天桥不过半里路,桥下河水是谓龙须沟,老百姓都说是京城水脉至此而凝成成龙须,可离阳王朝崇火,便以一座桥镇压降服水龙。一辆并不张扬的马车沿着御道,缓缓驶向皇城正门外的赵家瓮,皇城第一门外,两侧各树有名为敷文振武的两座牌坊,兵部刑部等衙门属武即阴,位于左侧振武牌坊之后,礼部户部翰林院等属文即阳,位于右侧敷文牌坊之后,敷文二字曾出自宋老夫子之手,如今也换上一幅新匾额。今日早朝规格奇伟,赵家瓮附近几乎无立锥之地,停满了各式马车站满了各样仆役,离阳王朝二十年治太平,早朝停车一事也有了许多不成文的规矩,按品秩爵位高低划分,位高者马车停留,离皇城墙越近,位卑者依次渐行渐远,许多官职不上不下的文武官员大多熟谙朝会事态,干脆就步行上朝,不伤和气,不至于跟谁抢占位置而争执得面红耳赤,天子脚下,在京为官大不易啊。 More than thousand people of grand lineups, including the 60-year-old person who silver-haired actually cannot step over five official ridges, having the 30 year-old actually prosperity is the fourth grade high-ranking official, has the 40-year-old is the God's favored one who the hand grasps a authority, has the position aloof yellow purple honored person, has the emperor's relatives who wear the boa robe, some people joked, if Terrestrial Divine Immortal can in toward, kill one each time early carelessly greatly, Liyang Dynasty on damaging severely vitality. Also there is a joke, only hangs jade to give to put in the bag these officials, that is a huge wealth. Joked, you knew outside the city gate these several hundred about thousand faces, you cleared off the Liyang Dynasty vein. 不下千人的壮阔阵容,其中有白发苍苍却始终没能迈过五品官这道坎的花甲老人,有而立之年却前程似锦已是四品大员,更有不惑之年更是手握一部权柄的天之骄子,有地位超然的黄紫贵人,有身穿蟒袍的皇亲国戚,有人戏言,若是有一位陆地神仙能在每次早朝,胡乱大杀一通,离阳王朝就得大伤元气。也有戏言,仅是将这些官员悬佩玉器都给收入囊中,那就是一笔天大的财富。还有戏言,你认识了城门外这数百近千张面孔,你就理清了离阳王朝的脉络。 stretch/open Dang of blue eyes Zhang Julu leadership, big General Gu Jiantang is Gu Dang of head, after Sun Xiji leaves Beijing, then the losing party of a group of people without a leader, loudly the azure party of collapse, this is only outwardly on sketchy division, inside is intriguing each imperial prince party, the wife's or mother's family party, the academician palace gate party, the Directorate of Education party, the official charged with remonstrating with the emperor party, the graciousness shade party, new successful candidate party, or deep-rooted unfailing, either is on the decline to lose power to decline, no one dares saying that oneself can achieve success one way or another in the big bog of this good and bad people mixed up, even Senior Grand Secretary Zhang Julu does not dare. The city gate shuts tightly, has not opened, has the enormous and powerful more than thousand people that the qualifications enter the palace to pass through the gate to stand firm in the respective position one after another, had the slick person still to mingle among many circles to answer the speech many, but most officials felt thunderstorms to want the aura of wind whole city, the obturation, especially was with rapt attention peaceful, had the sensibility occasionally, talking in whispers, was cautious only „clique” makes a sound to side. 碧眼儿张巨鹿领衔的张党,大将军顾剑棠为首的顾党,孙希济离京后便群龙无首的遗党,轰然倒塌的青党,这仅是明面上的粗略划分,内里则是错综复杂的各个皇子党,外戚党,翰林黄门党,国子监党,言官党,恩荫党,新科进士党,或根深蒂固经久不衰,或日薄西山失势式微,没有一个人敢说自己可以在这座鱼龙混杂的大泥塘中左右逢源,即便是首辅张巨鹿也不敢。城门紧闭,尚未开启,有资格入朝进门的浩浩荡荡千余人陆续在各自位置上站定,不乏有油滑之人仍在混迹多个圈子搭腔说话,但大多数官员都感受到一股雷雨欲来风满城的气息,闭气凝神,格外安静,偶有感悟,窃窃私语,也是小心翼翼只对身边“朋党”吱声。 Discontinued Wei that carriage to come later, seizing every opportunity is quite difficult, must stop by far, goes down the white clothing man who had does not gather the rituals of state suspicion. The official who more than ten for fear that miss toward the meeting has run in a hurry, even looks at one without enough time, a middle-aged black fatty runs especially difficultly, pants, brushed past with the old age man, bends the waist laboriously, both hands build on the knee, is sweating profusely, looks at the officer remedial work on his court dress, five day plan Libationer, but also is in government office with low expenditures Directorate of Education being able to stand in line number important person, after all left Libationer Huan Wen also from third grade, but this fatty digs that ballooning to result in the big buttocks that the court dress almost cracks, really did not say that on elegant, when his lowering the head asthma such as cow, the corner of the eye split vision glimpses the side man. Leads the way slowly, the waist has a uncommon jade belt, this makes the government seek personal gain not to have the talent to exercise a black fatty of pair of fierce look to feel strange that only, which distant branch of family juniors is difficult to be inadequate is inside the Zhao Family imperial clan, if not Zhao Family with, when previous emperor that leaves relational extremely far dragon descendants, is insufficient to stop over the walk to have an audience with the emperor here, but when he stares to look again, having a scare, copies dragon Gunfu the honored style unexpectedly, five claw python dragons, do not reduce a python not to reduce a claw, the black fatty rushes to raise the head to look at carefully, on even more wondered, is early young man who lives magnificence send/hair., The black fatty do not look at the correct manners discipline to be shabby, pouring is also a warmhearted good man, clenches teeth, follows to go, asked low voice: „This master, allowing me to talk too much, your boa robe, I may not hear, but do not overstep authority with harebrainedly, if this master hereditary rank of nobility previous dynasty which crown prince, this court dress, actually may not put on immediately, front walks again several steps, many official charged with remonstrating with the emperor and division ritual court eunuch is staring.” 下马嵬那辆马车来得稍晚了,见缝插针都极为困难,只得远远停下,走下一名有不合礼制嫌疑的白衣男子。十几名生怕错过朝会的官员匆匆跑过,甚至来不及望上一眼,一个中年黑胖子跑得尤为艰辛,气喘吁吁,才跟白头男子擦肩而过,就辛苦弯腰,双手搭在膝盖上,满头大汗,看他朝服上的官补子,是正五品的天策祭酒,还算是在清水衙门国子监排得上号的要员,毕竟左祭酒桓温也不过是从三品,可这胖子撅着那鼓胀得朝服几乎崩裂开的大屁股,实在称不上雅观,他低头气喘如牛时,眼角余光瞥见身边男子缓缓前行,腰间系有一根不常见的玉带,这让官场钻营没有天赋唯独练就一双火眼金睛的黑胖子就奇了怪哉,难不成是赵家宗室里头哪一房的远支子弟,若非赵家跟当先帝那一房离得关系极远的龙子龙孙,都不至于在这里落脚步行上朝,可当他瞪眼再看,吓了一跳,竟是照搬龙衮服的尊贵样式,五爪蟒龙,不减一蟒不减一爪,黑胖子赶忙抬头端详,就愈发纳闷了,是个早生华发的年轻男子,黑胖子别看仪容寒碜,倒也是个古道热肠的好男人,一咬牙,跟上前去,小声问道:“这位爷,容我多嘴一句,你这身蟒袍,我可从没有听说过,可千万别冒冒失失僭用了,若是这位爷袭爵了前朝哪位亲王,这身朝服,当下却也不可穿上,前头再走几步,就有不少言官和司礼太监盯着的。” Fatty saying said not 600 art. Also he can only be pressed no wonder in extremely the Directorate of Education manservant who is difficult to raise one's head. 胖子这话说得太不六百讲究了。也难怪他只能被按在极难出头的国子监当差。 The white hair man turned the head to look at his one eyes, closed with a smile. The black fatty perhaps is the temper that bores tip of cows horn, talked on endlessly continuous, „this master, you may not be really careful, a few years ago had a distantly related county prince younger brother, without seeing the world, without whom has spoken the custom to him, finally according to the Old Huang experience had an audience with the emperor, no passing through the gate gave to rip the boa robe, on the same day fell the nobility two steps. Today is more than ten years extremely important one time toward meeting, the master you may really probably listen to my one to urge, then rushes to change a court dress, rather late being punished, left came under attack mistakenly. I take a look at your boa robe, puts in present Yong Hong Nianjian, can put in the current dynasty prime ministers and some palace pavilion official scholars toward the meeting.” 白发男子转头看了他一眼,一笑置之。黑胖子兴许是那钻牛角尖的性子,叨叨不休,“这位爷,你可真别不上心啊,前些年就有一位远房郡王子弟,没见过世面,也没谁跟他讲过规矩,结果照着老黄历上朝,没进门就给剥去了蟒袍,当天就降爵两阶。今儿又是十多年来至关紧要的一次朝会,爷你可真要听我一声劝,回头赶忙去换上一身朝服,宁肯晚了挨罚,也别错了挨打啊。我瞅你这身蟒衣,搁在如今雍洪年间,也就当朝宰辅和一些殿阁大学士才能穿上朝会。” Old age man knitting the brows head, silent vanguard. 白头男子皱了皱眉头,默然前行。 Walks the black fatty near his right hand to glimpse the youngster waist to hang the blade, a palm of the hand claps ruthlessly on the thigh, was said by the disaster common employing professional mourners face with oneself: „I said that this master, you may really be the courage cannot be young, wears a sword on the palace, you are......” 走在他右手边的黑胖子瞥见年轻人腰间悬刀,一巴掌狠狠拍在大腿上,跟自家遭了劫难一般哭丧脸道:“我说这位爷,你可真是胆子不能再小了,佩刀上殿,你这是……” Old age white boa robe, natural entire life first time Beiliang Heir Xu Fengnian that participates in Liyang toward the meeting, said with a smile in a soft voice: „Mr. Libationer was said that I did court death?” 白头白蟒衣,自然生平第一次参加离阳朝会的北凉世子徐凤年,轻声笑道:“祭酒先生是说我找死？” The black fatty smiles embarrasedly, makes an effort to beckon with the hand, said awkwardly: „Cannot handle Libationer unable to handle the mister.” 黑胖子讪讪一笑,使劲摆手,尴尬道:“当不起祭酒也当不起先生。” In black strong fatty who Directorate of Education is equivalent to a vice minister, has not continued not to mention finally tactful oversteps one's authority that has not lacked the eyesight vigor to the situation of bottom of the pot. However obviously worries bringing disaster , the black fatty subconsciousness spreads out with Xu Fengnian, may really be the conscience suffering fiercely, walking the moment is about 50-60 steps, the face was also saying painstakingly in a low voice: „I said that this master, takes the liberty to ask one, where takes a higher position, Imperial Court may have the sturdy and healthy backer, can inside some honored person with palace speak the words? If the latter difference/two kinds does not have, really urged you to leave goes harebrainedly early toward, Capital City compared with the place, the inflexible custom are not many.” 在国子监相当于一部侍郎的黑壮胖子,总算没有继续不识趣地提起僭越那一茬,到底没有缺眼力劲到锅底的地步。不过显然担忧给殃及,黑胖子下意识跟徐凤年拉开一段距离,可实在是良心煎熬得厉害,走了片刻不过50-60步,就又苦着脸低声道:“我说这位爷,冒昧问一句,在哪儿高就,朝中可有硬实的靠山,能不能跟宫里头的某位贵人说上话？要是后两样都没有,真劝你别冒冒失失去早朝,京城不比地方啊,死板规矩多着呢。” Hangs Xu Fengnian of Beiliang blade to say with a smile in a soft voice: „I indeed the first time am entered Capital, how custom anything no one give me to remind, in the family/home the father is in good health, this clothes are also the royal government send to your family place temporarily, should not have to go bad the custom. As for the wearing a sword incident, if really went bad the court ritual, when I eat the lesson, at the worst not entering a city gate on palace, does not leave Capital City dingily, enters the Capital time in any case, has not seen any Ministry of Rites official to receive.” 悬有一柄北凉刀的徐凤年轻声笑道:“我的确是第一次入京,规矩什么都没人给我怎么提醒过,家里老爹健在,这身衣服也是朝廷临时送去府上的,应该没有坏了规矩。至于佩刀一事,要是真坏了朝仪,我就当吃回教训,大不了不进城门不上殿,灰溜溜离开京城,反正入京时候,也没见着任何礼部官员接待。” Hearing the boa robe was the royal government bestowed recently, the black fatty felt relieved, when only this young bull does not know that tiger fierce youngster is settled will block outside the city gate, this little while was better late than never to give the thumbs-up saying: „If nothing else, this master courage and wisdom breadth of spirit was enough.” 听说蟒衣是朝廷新近钦赐,黑胖子如释重负,只当这个初生牛犊不不知虎凶猛的年轻人板上钉钉会给人拦在城门外,这会儿亡羊补牢竖起大拇指称赞道:“别的不说,这位爷胆识气魄足够。” Xu Fengnian goes hand in hand with the black fatty, walks slowly in end of this middle axle imperial road, although the black fatty is an official to work as poorly and blankly, but entered class Directorate of Education to be clear, the qualifications proceeded to gather up dozens distances again. Do not belittle meaning that these dozens steps contained, many official employed in the capital, entered the palace Saint ranking to set the base for the first time, stand in most distant place, for the last time was still so miserable. To city gate, even if on near one -and-a-half step are the huge good fortunes, why or said toward the meeting out, most can 50 steps smile hundred steps. More proceeds, the black strong fatty more thought that the atmosphere is strange, this let be used to be ignored the contempt joke Directorate of Education day plan Libationer, the whole body was not comfortable, forwarded straightly, he with side that does not know young Heir that which corner braved, such as divided river Zhanlang, some originally regarded his nostril powerful official official look upwards to be complex, the complexion was exceptionally stiff, tears the two sides formation, subsequently withdrew loudly withdraws again several steps, the tide flows backwards. The black strong fatty has seen the face of Directorate of Education mostly colleague, is just thinking and covertly went to shut up to be affected in the past equally, sees Directorate of Education left Libationer Huan Wen Mr. Huan unexpectedly this time not to collect one pile with Senior Grand Secretary, smiles to look to oneself, this lets most dread that Huan Libationer that old fox essence is in sole possession of the black fatty of smile to be absolutely terrified. 徐凤年跟黑胖子结伴而行,缓慢行走在这一段中轴御道的尾端,黑胖子虽说当官当得一穷二白,可好歹是入了流品的国子监清贵,还有资格再往前凑上几十步路程。别小觑了这几十步蕴含的意味,有多少京官,第一次入朝面圣排名垫底,站在最远处,最后一次仍是如此凄凉。离城门哪怕近上一步半步都是天大幸事,要不为何都说朝会门外,最是能五十步笑百步。越往前走,黑壮胖子就越觉得气氛古怪起来,这让习惯了被人漠视轻视笑话的国子监天策祭酒,浑身不自在,直线向前,他跟身边那个不知道哪个旮旯冒出来的年轻世子,就如劈江斩浪,一些个原本看待他鼻孔朝天的权贵官员都眼神复杂,脸色异常僵硬,撕裂出两边队列,继而轰然后撤再后撤几步,潮水倒流。黑壮胖子已经看到国子监大多同僚的面孔,正想着跟往常一样偷摸进去闭嘴装孙子,就看见国子监左祭酒桓温桓老爷竟然这次没跟首辅凑一堆去,笑望向自己,这让最忌惮桓祭酒那张老狐精独有笑脸的黑胖子毛骨悚然。 Because this correct manners discipline degenerated into small Libationer of laughingstock to approach the Directorate of Education big team inborn unsatisfactory, was called Huan Mr. left Sir Libationer who to pat the shoulder of fatty in private, said with a smile: „king Tonglu, extraordinary.” 这位因为仪容天生不佳而沦为笑柄的小祭酒走近了国子监大队伍,被私下称为桓老爷的左祭酒大人拍了拍胖子的肩膀,笑道:“王铜炉,了不得啊。” Directorate of Education many colleague also looks ponder, the black fatty who this lets the neutral even more is confused, skinny left Libationer smiles saying: „Copper furnace, when caught Beiliang this steamship, deeply concealed, later made a rapid career advance, do not forget my bad old man.” 身边国子监众多同僚也都眼神玩味,这让钝感的黑胖子愈发一头雾水,干瘦左祭酒笑眯眯道:“铜炉啊,啥时候搭上北凉这条大船了,深藏不露嘛,以后飞黄腾达,可别忘了我这个糟老头子。” king Tonglu zhang (3.33 m) two monks cannot feel the mind, the doubts ask: „Old gentleman, said anything, the lower official does not understand what is heard.” 王铜炉丈二和尚摸不着头脑,疑惑问道:“老爷子,说啥呢,下官听不明白啊。” The Huan Wen squint looks that should 21 years ago youngster that then aborts, curls the lip, teases: „Looks at that you walk all the way wonder, why the boy dares to wear a white boa robe, but also dares to wear a sword to have an audience with the emperor?” 桓温斜眼望向那个本该二十一年前便胎死腹中的年轻人,撇了撇嘴,打趣道:“瞧一瞧那位,你是不是一路上走得纳闷,为何那小子胆敢穿一袭白蟒袍,还敢佩刀上朝？” king Tonglu makes an effort to nod, such as chicken pecking meter/rice, „right. I urged for quite a while to him, that young master smiles with me, does not listen to advice, gives anxiously me.” 王铜炉使劲点头,如小鸡啄米,“对啊对啊。我都给他劝了半天,那位小爷就只是跟我笑,也不听劝,把我给急的哦。” The bonus is left Libationer after the official circle ups and downs, after booth such , after knowing also not, stubborn subordinate who thinks, there are some knowing whether to laugh or cry, a palm of the hand retakes again in king Tonglu the shoulder, „your gruff child, most likely (80%) were helps compile the new style to arrange stupidly, has not seen this to walk, seeing you to seeing the god of plague was the same?” 饶是左祭酒历经宦海沉浮,摊上这么个后知还不后觉的榆木疙瘩下属,也有些许的哭笑不得,一巴掌重重拍在王铜炉肩头,“你这憨子,八成是去帮着编撰新历编傻了,没瞅见这一路走来,见你都跟见瘟神一样？” king Tonglu is anxious the whole face to become flushed, then a black coal face can look at the red, fully obviously its urgent, „old gentleman, don't with small keeping guessing. Did not divulge the details, I said the belly to hurt, does not dare to go early toward!” 王铜炉急得满脸涨红,那么一张黑炭脸都能让人瞧出红色,足可见其火急火燎,“老爷子,就别跟小的卖关子喽。再不透底,我就说肚子疼,不敢去早朝了！” Left Libationer laughs: „The boy was talked into takes Xu Huainan and Beiliang Heir of fifth raccoon dog head, you you, this bullying the weak by relying on powerful connections, was once in hundred years.” 左祭酒哈哈大笑:“那小子就是被说成拿下徐淮南和第五貉头颅的北凉世子,你呀你,这趟狐假虎威,可是百年一遇了。” Black fatty two legs one soft, luckily has Huan Wen to support by the arm, the old popularity said with a smile: „Hurried to stand, I one big age, could not help up your 200 jin (0.5 kg) autumn fat.” 黑胖子两腿一软,幸亏有桓温搀扶,老人气笑道:“赶紧站直了,我一大把年纪,扶不起你这两百斤秋膘。” king Tonglu elongates the neck to look to that to look then only to remain the snow white back, looks grief-stricken saying: „Old gentleman, my real belly hurts.” 王铜炉伸长脖子望向那个望去便是只剩雪白的背影,如丧考妣道:“老爷子,我真肚子疼。” Left Libationer Huan Wen always to doting parent to be famous in the official employed in the capital important person, ridicules saying: „Disgraceful gadget, a scholarship with your meat the jin (0.5 kg) and other, you follows fortunately a while behind me.” 左祭酒桓温在京官要员中历来以护犊子著称,笑骂道:“丢人现眼的玩意儿,亏得一身才学跟你一身肉等斤等两,等会儿你就跟在我后头。” king Tonglu the both legs are suffering from the malaria, dejected. 王铜炉双腿打着摆子,颓然哦了一声。 Outside the imperial city main entrance presents the covering of fan scene, the imposing manner is astonishing. 皇城正门外呈现出扇面场景,气势惊人。 Is headed by Senior Grand Secretary Zhang Julu and big General Gu Jiantang. 以首辅张巨鹿和大将军顾剑棠为首。 Has Yanchi Prince Zhao Bing, Guangling Prince Zhao Yi, Jiaodong Prince Zhao Sui, Huainan Prince Zhao Ying, Ping'an Prince Zhao Heng, five big imperial clan Regional Prince. 更有燕敕王赵炳,广陵王赵毅,胶东王赵睢,淮南王赵英,靖安王赵衡,五大宗室藩王。 That exchanges Chen Zhibao of brand-new bright red python clothing/taking. 还有那换上一身崭新鲜红蟒服的陈芝豹。 Wears the young man of white boa robe is the slit vanishes behind, encircles him in middle. 身穿白蟒衣的年轻男子身后更是缝隙消失,将他围在当中。 Being isolated and cutting off from help. 孤立无援。 With Beiliang and 300,000 cavalries the situation place, is exactly the same. 跟北凉和三十万铁骑所处境地,如出一辙。 Xu Fengnian is unemotional, in the heart meditates: „Xu Xiao, this I walk one time for you!” 徐凤年面无表情,心中默念:“徐骁,这回我替你走一遭！”
