A crude carriage goes south easely, first built the gentleman hall Maolong outside army town/subdues to leave the valley three army towns to stroll Vanuatu, the Southern Dynasty border rose from all directions in last year gunsmoke, the Beiliang cavalry steamroll, with irresistible force, unexpected has not occupied the army town/subdues afterward, in order to passed toward north the border line, resisted Beimang by this, but despoiled the property and artisan, swaggered away, even in the border the spider web common post road „being disinclined” destruction, the least bit did not fear that obviously Beimang sent out troops to threaten the border angrily smoothly. The carriage has strolled three towns, everywhere dark green foreign, flustered, the owner of carriage raises the curtain screen occasionally, unemotional, then on the transverse fracture east, rushes to dragon Yaozhou with the staying behind city of Youzhou intersection point, city herd Tao Qianzhi when last year Qingming Festival visited a grave dies a violent death, has traded a city herd of Yelyu surname. The carriage has not entered the city, goes south directly, close to the cool headstrong border pass, the carriage owner seems to be happy, sits in the groom behind, depends on the heavy/thick cotton fabric curtain screen, carried pot self-made glutinous rice thick liquid liquor, she drank several big mouths, sang one to know extremely well high-pitched tunes Xin Tian You, the desert yellow sand vast ten thousand li (0.5 km), the carriage was slightly alone and forsaken, the melody of old woman did not see the half a point young married woman to chant in a low voice persuasively, instead was soul-stirring. The cart driver is an ordinary short strong man, but grasps the whip long arm like the apes and monkeys, making his stature give people an absurd feeling. The middle-aged guy is serious in speech and manner, in this period the old woman carried the wine pot to touch his back, the man had not turned around, but shakes the head, hints him not to drink. Regarding his is not tactful, the old woman was not annoyed, sings the melody, raised head to fill rich glutinous rice thick liquid liquor, performing to reveal the spirit to be heroic, was only the rivers and lakes woman so affection, can make others cheer to applaud, a silver-haired old woman so not standing on ceremony meter, whom may not have to look in the eye will feel pleasant. 一辆简陋马车悠悠然南下,先把瓦筑军镇之外的君子馆茂隆离谷三座军镇都逛了一遍,南朝边境在去年硝烟四起,北凉铁骑一路碾压,势如破竹,事后却出人意料并未占据军镇,以便把边境线往北推移,以此抗拒北莽,而是把财物和匠人劫掠一空,扬长而去,甚至连边境上蛛网一般的驿路都“懒得”破坏,显然半点都不怕北莽一气之下顺畅地举兵压境。马车逛过了三镇,满目苍夷,人心惶惶,马车的主人偶尔掀起帘子,面无表情,然后就横折东去,赶往龙腰州跟幽州交界处的留下城,城牧陶潜稚在去年清明节上坟时暴毙,已经换了一位耶律姓氏的城牧。马车没有入城,径直南下,临近凉莽边关,马车主人似乎心情不错,坐在马夫身后,靠着厚重的棉布帘子,拎了一壶自制糯米浆酒,她喝了几大口,唱了一支熟稔至极的高腔信天游,大漠黄沙宏阔万里,马车略显孤苦伶仃,苍老妇人的曲调不见半分婆姨婉转低吟,反而荡气回肠。车夫是个貌不惊人的矮壮男子,只是握鞭长臂如猿猴,让他的身材给人一种荒谬感觉。中年汉子不苟言笑,期间老妪拎着酒壶碰了碰他的后背,汉子没有转身,只是摇了摇头,示意他不喝酒。对于他的不识趣,老妇人也不恼火,唱完了调子,仰头灌了一口浓郁的糯米浆酒,尽显气概豪迈,只是江湖女侠如此作态,能让旁人喝彩叫好,一个白发苍苍的老妪这般不拘礼仪,可没谁瞧在眼里会觉得赏心悦目。 The old women roughly know the light temper of groom, did not expect that he can answer, looks out clear sky with light clouds, said: „Your men had money to be authorized, liked to have a concubine, I, the fondness raised the literary giant hero, raised the skill of gentleman, was not only weak compared with Zhao Family old Emperor, the article, first had northern institute king Xu Huainan, latter had the emperor master Taiping command, the south side full towards/dynasty old people famous litterateur, the military had Yang Yuan to approve Liu Gui 12 big General, all was meritorious, performed in my hand. The war of strength of six hostile parties whole nations, loses two in first, wins four, if were is not hit one to be caught off guard by Beiliang Cripple Xu last year, who the Liyang government and people high and low did not dread the Beimang oppression of the people, but was also good, Beiliang rode the army such a noisily, Liyang will then belittle our Beimang quickly, Tai'an City that side seized Ministry of War Shangshu of Gu Jiantang that boy, blue eyes will pay taxes to incline the north action, finally started the numerous hindrance that received to float amounts to something, the Capital City Center people were not concerted, was the good deed. I look, Little Butcher of Men of new Ministry of War Shangshu, reason that was concerned with, even represses to attend to the hut military commander unintentionally, whatever on the royal government the official creates obstacles for blue eyes, not necessarily without being glad to see the deep plans that the northern border war rises from all directions, quite make his war decide Spring and Autumn to be insufficient, fought again decides the world. Such lofty aspirations and high ideals, said that the coarse point is the wild ambition, the White Clothed Military Immortal thoughts and appetite, really wanted to be bigger than too many his adoptive father. Was scolded makes being very suspicious youngster worthily, if he in our Beimang, ambitious Dong Fatty I had had a headache very much, in addition he, how places your three people, I cannot worry. Right, and peaceful command has Hong Jingyan of chess sword musical conservatory, the mind is also big, but between he and Dong Zhuo was doomed only to have one to crop up in Southern Dynasty, I had enjoyed his supple profound old scholartree Wuchuan three town/subdues all supple however cavalries, with military difference that Dong Zhuo grasps now not many, if this also lost , can only blame him only when the good fortune of rivers and lakes expert, without the yellow purple life standard of compete world. However to be honest, Dong Fatty behavior and conduct also calculates to ask for happily, ‚having eyes but failing to see’ Hong Jingyan looks tedious, the toba tartars, you definitely die me late are very longer, if surnamed Hong really dares to collude with the imperial clan, wants to work as secretly Emperor, no matter when the time comes you whether retires, killed him.” 老妇人约莫是知晓马夫的清淡性子,不奢望他能搭腔,遥望天高云淡,自顾自说道:“你们男子有钱有权了,都喜好金屋藏娇,我呢,癖好豢养文豪英雄,养士的本事,比起赵家老皇帝只强不弱,文,先有北院大王徐淮南,后有帝师太平令,还有南边满朝的遗老名士,武有杨元赞刘珪在内的十二位大将军,无一不是战功显赫,尽在我手啊。六次敌对双方举国之力的战事,输二在先,胜四在后,如果不是去年被北凉徐瘸子打了一个措手不及,离阳朝野上下谁不畏惧北莽铁蹄,不过也好,北凉骑军这么一闹,离阳便小觑了咱们北莽,太安城那边很快就夺了顾剑棠那小子的兵部尚书,碧眼儿将赋税倾斜北边的举措,终于开始受到浮上台面的重重阻碍,京城中枢人心不齐,是好事。我看啊,新任兵部尚书的小人屠,之所以对此不闻不问,甚至有意无意弹压顾庐武将,任由朝廷上文臣刁难碧眼儿,未必没有乐得看到北方边境战事四起的深沉心机,好让他一战定春秋还不够,再战就是定天下了。这样的雄心壮志,说难听点就是狼子野心,白衣兵仙的心思和胃口,实在是比他义父要大得太多了。不愧是被骂作狼顾之相的年轻人,要是他在咱们北莽,有一个野心勃勃的董胖子我就已经很头疼了,加上一个他,如何安置你们三人,我还不得愁死啊。对了,跟太平令同出棋剑乐府的洪敬岩,心眼也不小,只不过他跟董卓之间注定只能有一个在南朝冒头,我已经赏了他柔玄老槐武川三镇所有的柔然铁骑,跟董卓如今手握的兵力差得不多,如果这还输了,也只能怪他只有当江湖高手的福分,没有逐鹿天下的黄紫命格。不过说心里话,董胖子为人处世都还算讨喜,‘有眼无珠’的洪敬岩一看就让人生厌,拓跋,你肯定比我晚死很久,如果姓洪的真敢勾结宗室,想当幕后皇帝,到时候不管你是否退隐,都杀了他。” The men said lightly: „Dong Zhuo is also competent this stratagem counter deal.” 汉子平淡说道:“董卓也能干出这种谋逆勾当。” The old woman haha said with a smile: „This might as well but actually, who makes me hit the mind to like this dead fatty, after ascending the throne to proclaim oneself emperor, ate dares to call my Emperor Elder Sister bold , he was much more brazen-faced more and shameless. Dong Zhuo minds are many, full belly dirty trick, but also has his bottom line badly, the bottom line is lower, but has the bottom line eventually, such person, is actually not fearful. Feared that most feared the fellow who these bottom lines drift from place to place, big General magical powers, in addition Murong Baoding, is this kind of deceitful goods, you do not know what kind of a lifetime they will take to you ‚pleasant surprise’, how makes the matter of disgusting person. Hands over in Beimang Dong Fatty hand, the Murong Yelv two surnames, did not fear that cuts off.” 老妪哈哈笑道:“这倒无妨,谁让我打心眼喜欢这死胖子,自我登基称帝以后,吃了熊心豹胆敢称呼我皇帝姐姐的,就他一人而已,死皮赖脸得可爱。况且董卓心眼多是多,满肚子坏水,但最不济还有他的底线,底线低些,但终究有底线,这样的人,其实不可怕。怕最怕那些底线飘忽不定的家伙,大将军种神通,加上慕容宝鼎,就都是这类奸诈货色,你一辈子都不知道他们会带给你怎样的‘惊喜’,做出怎样恶心人的事。把北莽交到董胖子手里,慕容耶律两姓,不怕断绝。” Was called the man of surname is also silent merely. The old women drink up in the pot that is really she brews personally the glutinous rice thick liquid liquor, holds in the bosom, sighs with emotion: „When young was destitute and homeless, went to a Liyang two Liaoning, saw at that time did not have the lame slow cripple, that little while has not fallen in love like mad, but thought that this man was interesting, afterward Xu Xiao went out of eastern Liaoning, reached step by step, I always did not believe the magnificent feat that was he can make. Afterward processed the royal government the leisure, how frequently wondered he to become outstanding, long-time in the past, had put down in the past obviously, many years later instead took up, some were unwilling. However this deep love between man and woman , can only think that wants me then to elect again, initially will choose to return to Beimang. Really wants, for a male entire lifetime daily necessities gossip, I will be bored to kill people. After west builds the wall fights, I even write a letter to Xu Xiao, urging him to comply with the situation to support oneself for the emperor, I good to coordinate with each other across a great distance with him in Beimang, pledged that in the future I will go south, he went north, saw in Jinzhou like the past years initially, he divided that pie to be the same, person of half, carved up Liyang together, the north and south governed. He is not willing, naturally, really to that day, I also to renege on a promise, where can really altogether govern the world, the woman villain is difficult to raise , my woman villains calculate, therefore this world, who can raise? He is Xu Xiao is also the same, I raise him also almost!” 被仅仅称呼姓氏的汉子又沉默起来。老妇人喝完了确是她亲手酿造的壶中糯米浆酒,捧在怀里,感慨道:“年轻时流离失所,去了一趟离阳两辽,见到了当时还没瘸的徐老瘸子,那会儿也没一见钟情要死要活,只是觉得这男子有趣,后来徐骁走出辽东,一步步登顶,我总不信是他能做出来的壮举。后来处理朝政的闲暇,经常纳闷他怎就能出人头地,长久以往,当年明明已经放下了,很多年后反而又拿起了,有些不甘心。不过这种儿女情长,也就只能想想而已,要我回头再选,当初还是会选择回到北莽。真要为了一个男子整辈子柴米油盐家长里短,我会无聊到想杀人的。西垒壁一战过后,我甚至写信给徐骁,劝他顺应大势自立为帝,我在北莽好与他遥相呼应,承诺将来我南下,他北上,像当年在锦州初见,他分那张大饼一样,一人一半,一起瓜分了离阳,南北而治。只是他不肯,当然,真的到了那一天,我也会反悔,哪里能真的共治天下,女子小人难养也,我女子小人都算,所以这个天下,谁能养得起？他是徐骁也一样,我养他还差不多！” The old women sighed, „three services committed suicide, may suppress a riot, stills the current political situation, you did well with these big General. The common people rebirth, can not be chaotic, the thought without raised the standard of revolt, Southern Dynasty that helped the Spring and Autumn old people do is also good. Pitifully the situation still when Beimang, does not only have to does not need I, to make good use of one's time. Do not look at Beimang to win four major battles, but Liyang always only then the wound muscle, has not moved the bone. Has blue eyes to plan the overall situation, builds the border east line with Gu Jiantang jointly, in the future, the Beimang advantage will be smaller, when Liyang will eat Spring and Autumn thoroughly, raised fully the physical strength, this/should beat violently our neighbors. Therefore before I die, no matter how the result, resurfaces while the peaceful command, must get one. As for with Liyang or with Beiliang, I now is indecisive, both advantages half-and-half, Helian Wuwei yellow Songpu several old fogies, were determined first to hit Liyang, but also the example said that in the past Zhao Family old Emperor listened to the Yuan Benxi words, did not hesitate the full mouth blood also to first bite Western Chu, then ate Southern Tang Western Shu to success when conditions are ripe easily. The large quantities of young General of peaceful command with Dong Zhuo actually persists in first overcoming Beiliang, then annexes Western Shu Nanzhao in one vigorous effort, forms pattern that the thing confronts, this is safe. Had Chen Zhibao after the fence Western Shu symptom, the north-south two dynasties, only had the peaceful command still to stickle with Dong Fatty finally, many people felt not only need face the Xu Xiao 300,000 cavalries, and had Chen Zhibao to guard Western Shu, might as well first went to with Gu Jiantang one person the east line fished for the small advantage. I, by the wrist/skill that having the harem struggles for favor, Zhao Zhi in Tai'an City must study me, but regarding capturing the important matter of dynasty life and death, said laughably, actually often relied on the woman intuition. In the past in Jinzhou, Cripple Xu said him the headache matter that so long as meet was hard to choose, had a relaxed method, threw the copper coin to guess the pro and con, listened to the God, how should how. Can I also throw a copper coin? Do the toba tartars, your little while have?” 老妇人叹息一声,“三军轻生,才可戡乱,平定时局,你跟那些大将军做得都不错。百姓重生,方能不乱,才没有揭竿而起的念头,南朝那帮春秋遗老做得也还行。只可惜大势仍旧不在北莽,不得不时不待我,只争朝夕。别看北莽赢了四场大仗,可离阳从来就只有伤筋,远未动骨。有碧眼儿谋划全局,跟顾剑棠联手打造边境东线,越往后,北莽的优势就越小,等到离阳彻底吃掉春秋,养足了气力,就该往死里狠揍咱们这个邻居了。因此在我死前,不管结局如何,趁着太平令复出,都要打上一架。至于是跟离阳还是跟北凉,我现在还犹豫不决,两者利弊参半,赫连武威黄宋濮几个老家伙,都执意要先打离阳,还举例说当年赵家老皇帝就是听了元本溪的话,不惜满口鲜血也要先咬下西楚,再去吃掉南唐西蜀就水到渠成轻而易举了。太平令和董卓在内一大批青壮将军却坚持先打下北凉,然后一鼓作气吞并西蜀南诏,形成东西对峙的格局,这才稳妥。只是有了陈芝豹就藩西蜀的苗头后,南北两朝,结果就只剩下太平令跟董胖子仍旧坚持己见,很多人都觉得既要面对徐骁的三十万铁骑,又有陈芝豹镇守西蜀,还不如先去跟顾剑棠一人而已的东线捞取便宜。我呢,论起后宫争宠的手腕,太安城里的赵稚都得学我,但对于牵系王朝生死的大事,说出来可笑至极,其实往往都只是凭借女子的直觉。当年在锦州,徐瘸子说他只要遇上难以抉择的头疼事,有个轻松的法子,抛铜钱猜正反,听老天爷的,该咋咋的。我难道也要抛个铜钱？拓跋,你这会儿身上有吗？” The middle-aged guy feels incredible probably, this time shook the head continually saves, the physique was entirely still. 中年汉子大概是觉得荒诞,这次连摇头都省了,身板纹丝不动。 Before him had not said that We or am my old woman self-ridicule smile, „did your plain temper, how fly into a rage near the Yellow River, killed our True Person Qilin?” 在他面前没有自称朕或者是寡人的老妪自嘲一笑,“你这质朴性子,怎就在黄河边上大动肝火,打杀了咱们麒麟真人？” The men sneer saying: „Plays tricks. If north does not go to the boundary icefield eagerly, any gasification Taoist trinity, except Imperial Preceptor Yuan Qingshan oneself, butchered, your majesty is free from worry.” 汉子冷笑道:“装神弄鬼。如果不是急于去北境冰原,什么一气化三清,除去国师袁青山本人,都宰了,陛下才省心。” The old woman closed with a smile, hugs that with great difficulty obsolete Qiu Zi who turned out from the bottom, said in a soft voice: „How royal government should deal with the rivers and lakes, Liyang with our Beimang study. Initially made the Xu Xiao horse tread the rivers and lakes, did a thankless job, the royal government, the rivers and lakes, with that taking the rap back infamy back was used to it Xu Xiao, did not have one to result in well. A hand holds Emperor of authority, goes to compete with the military person personally, falls in price, went bad the reputation. Might as well rivers and lakes to struggle to rush to give oneself to work oneself to death, is the excellent method. However, supported several rivers and lakes powerful families, must pay attention do not make it form the tail greatly the potential, a powerful family of each generation produces talented people, was no different than the backyard the weapon cache, if aimed at the oneself back by the spearhead, endured hardships.” 老妪一笑置之,搂了搂身上那件好不容易让人从箱底翻出的老旧裘子,轻声说道:“朝廷应该如何跟江湖打交道,离阳是跟咱们北莽学的。当初让徐骁马踏江湖,吃力不讨好,朝廷,江湖,和那个背黑锅背骂名背习惯了的徐骁,就没有一个得了好。一个手操权柄的皇帝,亲自去跟武人较劲,既掉价儿,也坏了口碑。不如让江湖人争着抢着给自己卖命,才是上乘手段。不过,扶持出了几座江湖门阀,也要留心不要让其形成尾大不掉之势,一个人才辈出的门阀,无异于自家后院的武器库,假使被矛头对准自己后背,更是遭罪。” The grooms knit the brows: „Then in Dao and Virtue Sect of Beimang rivers and lakes being the acknowledged leader with chess sword musical conservatory?” 马夫皱眉道:“那在北莽江湖执牛耳者的道德宗跟棋剑乐府？” The old women said superficially: „Goes all out to ask that immortal, goes all out to mix the earthliness, has the soft rib, cannot be popular the storm, gives your Tuoba Pusa 20,000 soldiers and horses, but can also 't level?” 老妇轻描淡写道:“一个拼了命求那长生,一个拼了命掺和俗世,都有软肋,兴不起风浪,给你拓拔菩萨两万兵马,还摆不平？” The men nod. 汉子点了点头。 The old women shook the wine pot, „that young married woman hides with Murong Baoding in spider web inside illegitimate child, if were not this time in Liyang by the great misfortune, by the striking back original form, I was been worse hoodwinking by Li Mibi, but this old man also had his difficulty, my did not haggle over with him. No wonder blew three chi (0.33 m) unable to seek before, originally hides under my eye hides. A section of willow tree, a good section of willow tree, really to insert the willow tree to create shade, has ability that cuts the grass difficult root.” 老妇人晃了晃酒壶,“那婆娘跟慕容宝鼎藏在蛛网里头的私生子,如果不是这次在离阳遭了大劫,被打回原形,我差些被李密弼给蒙混过去,不过这老儿也有他的难处,我这回就不跟他计较了。怪不得以前刮地三尺也寻不着,原来就躲在我的眼皮子底下。一截柳,好一个一截柳,真是插柳就成荫,有斩草难除根的本领。” The men regarding this related to the scandal secret of imperial family ancestor and relative, are will not make remarks, his Tuoba Pusa this life, only to practicing martial art to lead troops two matters to move, the beautiful woman is also good, officer, is the dispensable body external object. 汉子对于这桩涉及皇室宗亲的丑闻秘事,自是更加不会去评头论足,他拓拔菩萨这一生,也就只对习武带兵两事动心,美人也好,官品也罢,都是可有可无的身外物。 Empress Beimang watched a weather, said with a smile in a soft voice: „Before was Zhao Family wishes one could Xu Family that child dead early is reincarnated early, when he cannot die, moreover recognized that boy with Cripple Xu was a same muscle, will not revolt to throw Beimang. Now is glad to squeeze out the smile actually, waits to look that the Beiliang 300,000 cavalries fight with all might the big joke that does not remain. How their Zhao Family gains in any case. If this child cunningly, revealing to be little your Liyang to compel me to dare to rebel and flee anxiously the Beimang disloyalty, was not the extent that bitterly difficult. However, if this child was this ‚intelligent’ Beiliang Prince, Beimang also has nothing to threaten, Chen Zhibao will not leave Beiliang mostly. Has next Beiliang Prince to support in the west line, will relate to his Chen Zhibao whether to fight to decide the world, otherwise Zhao Family most is good at unloading the grinding to kill the donkey, he again by now Liyang Son of Heaven thinking highly, also can only work as in a hand honestly retirement Huayang of 30,000-40,000 crack troops, has to have a high opinion by the king, actually does not trust for the king, is not the good fortune, can only be the extreme disaster. This Zhao Family Son of Heaven, anything is good, is the tolerance is too small, might as well my such woman, in the stubborn Cripple Xu booth such new master, gets what one deserves he to have bad luck.” 北莽女帝看了眼天色,轻声笑道:“以前是赵家恨不得徐家那孩子早死早超生,等到他没能夭折,而且认定了那小子跟徐瘸子是相同的一根筋,不会叛投北莽。如今倒是乐意挤出笑脸,等着看北凉三十万铁骑拼杀得一个不剩的大笑话。反正他们赵家怎么都是赚的。假若这孩子奸猾一点,流露出一点点你离阳逼急了我就敢叛逃北莽的异心,也就不至于如此辛酸劳苦了。不过话说回来,如果这孩子是这样‘聪明’的北凉王,北莽也就没什么威胁了,陈芝豹多半也不会离开北凉。有没有下一任北凉王在西线撑着,会关系到他陈芝豹能否一战定天下,否则赵家最擅长卸磨杀驴,他再被当今离阳天子器重,也只能老老实实当个手中不过30,000-40,000精兵的养老蜀王了,被君王不得不倚重,却不为君王信赖,不是幸事,只会是泼天祸事。这个赵家天子,什么都好,就是肚量太小,还不如我这么个妇人,死心眼的徐瘸子摊上这么个新主,活该他倒霉。” The Beimang army god Tuoba Pusa conversation is shameless, tranquil say/way: „Changing into me is Xu Xiao, initially after white clothing case, pushed the boat along instead.” 北莽军神拓拔菩萨言谈无忌,平静道:“换成我是徐骁,当初白衣案后,也就顺水推舟反了。” Empress Beimang of faintly visible past grace and talent smiled saying: „Therefore you could not become can let the man who I, Wu Su, Zhao Zhi three woman never forgot forever. A man, occasional childish, murderous aura of whole body, seemingly lets the immortal Buddha air/Qi that the person admires, is actually the gadget of splendid addition, only has the brothers loyalty and touch of humanity, is the thing of giving opportune help. A man minimum friendship did not say, our these woman, looked straight at does not look. This way of the world, never lacks the smart person, oneself is not willing to live the relaxed fool to be few. Xu Xiao, is the person slaughter is Beiliang Prince, is a fool. What a pity, this has stupidly smiled to look at the old fool in landscape, after having seen your me, must pass away.” 依稀可见当年风华的北莽女帝微笑道:“所以你永远成为不了能让我、吴素、赵稚三名女子都念念不忘的男子。一个男人,偶尔的孩子气,满身的杀气,看似让人敬服的仙佛气,实则都是锦上添花的玩意儿,唯有兄弟义气和人情味,才是雪中送炭的东西。一个男人连起码的情谊都不讲,我们这些女子,连正眼都不看一下。这个世道,从来不缺聪明人,自己不愿意活得轻松的傻子才少。徐骁,是人屠是北凉王,也是个傻子。可惜啊,这个一直傻呵呵笑看江山的老傻子,见过了你我后,就要老死了。”
