„The old man spoke somewhat covers-up.” “那老头说话有些藏着掖着。” Blind Man exhausted orange while said. 瞎子一边剥橘子一边说道。 Zheng Fan received the wet towel from Yuexin, scratches to begin saying: 郑凡从月馨手里接过了湿毛巾,擦着手说道: „Cannot cover-up.” “不都得藏着掖着么。” Is the millenniums foxes, what did you speak «Strange Stories» to me? 都是千年的狐狸,你跟我讲什么《聊斋》？ „But, lord, pours has not inspired completely, for example that old man said about matter that the crown prince arranges, the subordinate feels some truth.” “不过,主上,倒也不是完全没有启发,比如那老头儿说的关于储君安排的事儿,属下觉得有些道理。” „ This, but must look at heaven's will, but I thought some are not real, the Sixth Imperial Prince wing had been eliminated similarly, possibly we are Little Sixth Child are thickest blackest root hair. “这个,还得看天意,不过我还是觉得有些不真实,六皇子羽翼已经被剪除得差不多了,可能我们已经算是小六子最粗最黑的一根毛了。 If later really has such possibility, he sits that position, can the obedience? ” 若是以后真有那样子的可能,他坐上那个位置,能服众么？” Blind Man the orange will send in the mouth together, chews while said: 瞎子将一块橘子送入嘴里,边嘴嚼边道: „ lord, this with a Gao Yi appearance, Great Yan, the discerning person understood at a glance that is divided into three giants, North Guarding Marquis one, South Pacifying Marquis one and Yanjing one. “主上,这就和高毅一个样子,大燕,明眼人一看就知道是分为三巨头,镇北侯一尊、靖南侯一尊、燕京一尊。 Actually, by the true strength, Yanjing that is strongest, particularly after cavalry tramples upon the powerful families, hit winning national war, the will of the people submitted, the tendency was legitimate, this was matter naturally. 其实,论真正的实力,燕京的那一尊才是最强的,尤其是马踏门阀之后又打了一场大胜的国战,人心归附,心向正统,这是自然而然的事情。 On for example Xu Wenzu, initial Xu Wenzu is willing not to hesitate Tiger Head City to offer the city for North Guarding Marquis Residence, now, the person does well in Southern Gaze City, initially also on the frontline supervised combat personally, command subordinate military chief and western army Western Mountain Camp cavalry slaughters does not draw back. 就比如许文祖,当初的许文祖可是愿意为了镇北侯府不惜开虎头城献城的,现在呢,人在南望城干得好好的,当初也亲自上前线督战,号令麾下军头子和西军西山营骑兵厮杀不退。 Perhaps, Xu Wenzu takes oneself at heart, when North Guarding Marquis Residence person, but you made Xu Wenzu with hoist a flag to revolt for North Guarding Marquis Residence now again initially like that it is estimated that was difficult. 或许,许文祖心里还是拿自己当镇北侯府的人,但你让许文祖现在再和当初那般为了镇北侯府扯旗造反,估计难了。 Xu Wenzu is only a miniature, including from our here not far Great general Quhe City Li Bao, although came from North Guarding Army, is one of the Seven Great Troop-Commanders, but others guard New Jin land now, was just like split up a side young feudal lord ; 许文祖只是一个缩影,包括距离咱们这儿不远的曲贺城大将李豹,虽说是出身于镇北军,也是七大总兵之一,但人家现在镇守新晋之地,俨然被分化出来一方小诸侯; Even if Li Bao is willing to continue, when North Guarding Marquis Residence loyal adopted son, under him soldiers and horses? Is willing to continue to follow he to return to Beifeng Prefecture to eat the sand or brandishes the weapons to Yanjing? 就算李豹愿意继续当镇北侯府忠贞不二的义子,那他麾下兵马呢？愿意继续跟着他回北封郡吃沙子或者挥舞兵戈向燕京么？ Legitimate, most times can not be worth a red cent, but sometimes, is incomparably important. 正统,在很多时候可以一文不值,但在有些时候,又是无比重要。 To put it bluntly, the winner swept the decks, plays to collapse the Ji Family body dead extermination of entire extended family, the throne legitimacy will not be worth mentioning, plays, was the dawn in Ji . Moreover the dividend can also continue to eat to the next generation. 说白了,胜者通吃,玩儿崩了姬家身死族灭,皇位正当性将不值一提,玩儿成了,就是天明在姬,而且红利还能给下一代继续吃。 And the center is an organization, is a very huge group, has civil and military, hundred officers, have the system, it is a colossus, the tentacle is found in the nation ; 且中枢是一个机构,是一个很庞大的团体,有文武,有百官,有体系,它是一个庞然大物,触手遍布全国; Little Sixth Child before succeeding to the throne, was one is pulled out the wool even also by the boiling water has washed with hot water the chicken, so long as put on dragon robe to sit in that position, can have the extremely powerful authority instantaneously. 小六子就算在继位前,是一只被拔了毛还被开水烫洗过的鸡,只要披上龙袍坐在那个位置上,瞬间就能拥有极为强大的权柄。 Through the ages, such example is actually not infrequent, Emperor Xuan of Han and wasn't the family background of Hongzhi emperor more pitiful than Little Sixth Child? 古往今来,这样子的例子其实不在少数,汉宣帝和弘治帝的出身不比小六子更凄惨？ So long as he sits that position, can obtain large quantities of person of giving loyalty to automatically. ” 只要他坐上那个位置,就自动能得到一大批人的效忠。” „So that's how it is.” “原来如此。” „ lord, to put it bluntly, beforehand Ji Family, although is the State of Yan imperial family, but in fact is also the hegemon of aristocratic family alliance, at present, really has a dynasty the main style. “主上,说白了,以前的姬家,虽是燕国皇室,但实际上也就是个世家联盟的盟主,眼下,是真的有一种王朝之主的气派了。 Actually that Yao Zizhan said that if the Sovereign of Yan body really had problems, may restart immediately to State of Qian resorts to arms, this, possibly real is right. 倒是那个姚子詹说的,若是燕皇身体真的出问题了,可能会立即重启对乾国用兵,这个,可能真的是对的。 Our State of Yan Emperor, said is the outstanding ability and grand vision, is really not exaggerating, but Emperor after all is also a person, actually, even immortal, when knowing the oneself life completely, confidently can face and how many have? 咱们这位燕国皇帝,说是雄才大略,是真的一点都不夸张,但皇帝毕竟也是人,其实,就算是仙人,在得知自己寿元将尽时,能坦然面对的又有几个？ This is the checkerboard that he works wholeheartedly to arrange, how did he possibly tolerate oneself before receiving the officer died? ” 这是一场他呕心沥血布置下来的棋盘,他怎么可能容忍自己在收官之前就死去？” Zheng Fan both hands overlapping, is listening to the analysis of Blind Man silently. 郑凡双手交叉,默默地听着瞎子的分析。 „ Therefore, when the time comes, even if clear(ly) knows that should continue to rest and build up strength and ram the national strength is the correct action, but the big probability, Ji Runhao cannot bear. “所以,到时候,哪怕明知道应该继续休养生息、夯实国力才是正确之举,但大概率,姬润豪还是忍不住的。 Many enlightened ruler, the old age are muddle-headed, even destroyed the oneself first illustrious name for this reason, is really not infrequent. ” 多少明君,晚年昏聩,甚至为此毁了自己一世英名的,真的不在少数。” „ These, are the later matter, although after all Tian Wujing has suggested to me, but his own horn mouthpiece submission, I had not even been suspecting, this Sovereign of Yan body has problems, since even Yao Zizhan this old man can analyze, can be a smoke shell? “这些,都是以后的事儿,毕竟虽说田无镜对我暗示过,但他并没有亲口承认过,我甚至在怀疑,这燕皇身体出问题,既然连姚子詹这老头儿都能分析到了,会不会又是一枚烟雾弹？ Sovereign of Yan will fish in any case, is good at fishing. ” 反正燕皇会钓鱼,也擅长钓鱼。” „wu, lord said is really.” “唔,主上所言甚是。” „Therefore, walks one step to look at one step.” “所以,还是走一步看一步吧。” „Right, lord, the subordinate obeyed the caravan that Litian City came saying that South Pacifying Marquis Mistress, had the pregnancy probably.” “对了,主上,属下听从历天城来的商队说,靖南侯夫人,好像有身孕了。” „Yes, Du Juan/cuckoo?” “是么,杜鹃？” „Should be she.” “应该是她。” „Makes Siniang prepare a ritual to send to Litian City, the ritual should not be heavy, gold and silver valuables did not need to prepare, delivered some truly practical intimate thing in the past.” “让四娘备一份礼送去历天城,礼不要重,金银细软不用备了,送一些真正实用贴心的物件儿过去。” „Subordinate understands.” “属下明白。” At this time, Xiao Yibo walked, reported the report: 这时,肖一波走了过来,禀报道: „master, the Litian City messenger sends the military order.” “主人,历天城信使送来军令。” „Brings.” “拿来。” Zheng Fan puts out a hand to receive. 郑凡伸手接了过来。 The military order is not the imperial decree, does not need to kowtow to suppose case burning incense anything, said again, even imperial decree, in the army, Yan people still outmoded what tedious formality. 军令不是圣旨,自是不需要三跪九叩设案焚香什么的,再说了,就算是圣旨,在军中,燕人也不兴什么繁琐的礼节。 However, it is said after declining the Directorate of Education assignment, Sovereign of Yan assigns/life Wen Sutong to enter Ministry of Rites, for the first time opened post with Ministry of Rites High Official, making him revise the State of Yan etiquette. 不过,据说在推辞掉国子监的差事后,燕皇命温苏桐入礼部,破天荒地开了个同礼部尚书的职衔,让其修订燕国礼法。 Actually is to establish these customs, makes one set of formalized thing to come out, receives the State of Yan high and low this type of sloppy aura. 其实就是要设定这些规矩,弄一套形式化的东西出来,收一收燕国上下这种过于散漫的气息。 After all, by having the custom is tedious, the State of Qian person most excels. 毕竟,论起规矩繁琐,乾国人最擅长。 Zheng Fan opened the military order, swept one, then placed on it the table. 郑凡打开了军令,扫了一眼,然后将它放在了桌案上。 Blind Man also „sweeping”, 瞎子也“扫”了一眼, Cannot help but some doubts said: 不由得有些疑惑道: „lord, does South Pacifying Marquis make me and others make a connection with Heaven Broken Mountain Range route of Shengle City to snowfields?” “主上,靖南侯让我等打通盛乐城至雪原之间的天断山脉路线？” „Yes.” “是。” The State of Jin northern border area basically takes Heaven Broken Mountain Range as, Heaven Broken Mountain Range north is the boundless snowfield. 晋国北部边疆基本以天断山脉为界,天断山脉之北则是茫茫雪原。 „lord, is this what intent?” “主上,这是何意？” „You asked me, whom did I ask?” Zheng Fan smiles, said: „Meaning is, making me clean up a road, always possibly to not trade together.” “你问我,我问谁呢？”郑凡笑了笑,道:“意思是,让我清理出一条路来,总不可能是为了通商的。” „It is not the trade, does that for...... resort to arms?” “不是通商,那就是为了……用兵？” The words of elimination method, only had this. 排除法的话,就只剩下这一条了。 „Helps me write a receipt to Litian City, said that I am compliant.” “帮我写一份回执给历天城,就说我遵命。” „Subordinate is compliant.” “属下遵命。” „This matter, must wait for A'Cheng to come back, but, is first forearmed, in the prefectural repository should accumulate the wealth to be many, this time period first is primarily the horses mail-armor and helmet purchases.” “这事儿,还是得等阿程回来,不过,还是先有备无患吧,府库里应该积财不少,这阵子就先以马匹甲胄为主进行采购。” The Zheng Fan original direct descendant troops, the equipment is excellent, the State of Jin routed troop as well as nearby family clan soldier headed by Tufa Clan that but these drew in afterward, must miss in the equipment are too many. 郑凡原本的嫡系人马,装备都是极好的,但那些后来收拢的晋国溃兵以及以秃发族为首的附近家族族兵,在装备上就要差太多了。 „Subordinate understood, lord, if really must go to war, who hitting is? State of Cheng?” “属下明白了,主上,如果真要打仗的话,打得是谁？成国？” „State of Cheng main force soldiers and horses in Northeast, and Yan is strong and Cheng is weak, hit them, does not need what tactic to be circuitous.” “成国主力兵马都在东北方向,且本就燕强成弱,打他们,根本就不用什么战术迂回。” „That is .........” “那就是………” Zheng Fan nods, 郑凡点点头, Guessed: 猜测道: „I am also suspecting this, won't really run to help State of Cheng hit savage?” “我也在怀疑这个,不会真跑去帮成国打野人吧？” ......... ……… Yanjing, 燕京, Imperial palace, 皇宫, Imperial Study. 御书房。 In the morning, finished after the meeting, left behind some high-ranking court officials to discuss official business in Imperial Study alone, after discussing official business ended, Sovereign of Yan left behind Zhao Jiulang to use the lunch together. 上午,结束了朝会后,又单独留下了一些重臣在御书房里议事,议事结束之后,燕皇留下了赵九郎一同用午膳。 Entire Great Yan, relates intimate with this Monarch, is not Imperial Prince, but is this State of Yan Steward-Bulwark, this is the matter that the government and people altogether know. 整个大燕,和这位帝王关系最亲近的,不是皇子,而是这位燕国宰辅,这是朝野共知的事情。 The lunch is very simple, 午膳很简单, Three dishes and one soup, 三菜一汤, Only then a Wei Zhonghe person serves in side. 只有魏忠河一个人在旁边伺候。 Sovereign of Yan had half bowl of food, the vegetable/dish had not moved, advanced the rice bowl, said: 燕皇吃了半碗饭,菜没怎么动,将饭碗向前一推,道: „cherished minister, helping Us eat.” “爱卿,帮朕吃了吧。” „Feudal official thanks lord for the great kindness.” “臣谢主隆恩。” Remaining meals of Wei Zhonghe in front of Sovereign of Yan delivers to the Zhao Jiulang table, Zhao Jiulang continues to wolf down. 魏忠河将燕皇面前剩下的餐食送到赵九郎桌案上,赵九郎继续狼吞虎咽。 „Pressed cherished minister.” “难为爱卿了。” Zhao Jiulang smiles, fears to burst out laughing, can only cover mouth to nod , to continue to eat. 赵九郎笑了笑,又怕喷饭,只能捂着嘴点点头,继续吃。 The Your Majesty appetite, was not as before. 陛下的胃口,大不如前了。 But the Your Majesty meals may not reduce, before because, in good habit that North Guarding Marquis Residence forms, is eating meal this aspect, Sovereign of Yan ceases all along is extravagant and wasteful. 但偏偏陛下的膳食不可减免,且因为以前在镇北侯府养成的好习惯,在吃饭这方面,燕皇一贯是杜绝铺张浪费的。 Therefore, before will not keep the food left over, now, same cannot remain. 所以,以前既然不会留剩饭,现在,也一样不能留。 Because, even if you again how careful, has so many eyes to stare at you as before unavoidable. 因为,哪怕你再怎么小心谨慎,也依旧无法避免有那么多双眼睛正在盯着你。 Therefore, Zhao Jiulang this current dynasty Steward-Bulwark, the Son of Heaven first officials close to the throne, the midnight snack does not eat every day, eats early does not eat, empties the belly to eat and drink extravagantly specially at noon. 所以,赵九郎这位当朝宰辅,天子第一近臣,每天夜宵不吃,早食不吃,特意空着肚子中午来大吃大喝。 Possibly said that no one believes that Sir Grand Counsellor must overeat and overdrink unexpectedly every day. 可能说出去都没人会相信,宰相大人居然每天都得暴饮暴食。 Finally, the food ate, Zhao Jiulang covers the belly to depend on backward, keeps exhaling. 终于,饭食吃下去了,赵九郎捂着肚皮向后靠着,不停地呼着气。 „Confers the matter of grand ceremony, how to arrange?” Sovereign of Yan opens the mouth to ask. “册封大典的事,安排得如何了？”燕皇开口问道。 „Returns to the Your Majesty words, has arranged appropriately.” The Zhao Jiulang response said. “回陛下的话,已经安排妥帖了。”赵九郎回应道。 Sovereign of Yan looks to Wei Zhonghe, asked: 燕皇又看向魏忠河,问道: „Eastern Palace?” “东宫呢？” „Long live master, lackey already neat, with lord you initially when diving Di was an appearance. Lady Empress formal clothes and Second Highness formal clothes, manufactures.” “万岁爷,奴才已经让人规整过了,和主子您当初在潜邸时还是一个模样。皇后娘娘的礼服和二殿下的礼服,也都制作完毕。” „Un.” “嗯。” Sovereign of Yan closes one's eyes, nods. 燕皇闭着眼,点了点头。 At this time, Zhao Jiulang recovered consciousness finally, set out, sat straight the body slightly, said: 这时,赵九郎终于缓过来了,起身,略微坐直了身子,道: „Your Majesty, State of Cheng envoy, but also is waiting for the interview.” “陛下,成国的使节,还等着求见呢。” „Matter reached an agreement, what also sees?” “事儿都谈好了,还见什么？” „He said, he must thank for kindness.” “他说,他要谢恩。” „Exempted.” “免了。” „Feudal official obeys the aim.” “臣遵旨。” „Can this resorting to arms, in the government and people, have the censure?” “这次用兵,朝野上,可有非议？” Zhao Jiulang smiled, said: 赵九郎笑了,道: „Censured big.” “非议不小呢。” „Is one flock of vision low house sparrows.” “都是一群眼界低的麻雀。” The Zhao Jiulang smile did not speak. 赵九郎微笑不语。 „ His Situ Lei dares to withdraw the western border pass soldiers and horses, northeast emperor leads troops into battle, no matter he does intentionally heroically before Us broad and level, the real heart has the Great Xia blessings left by predecessors, along with him. “他司徒雷敢撤走西部边关兵马,御驾亲征东北,甭管他是在朕面前故作豪迈坦荡,还是真的心有大夏遗泽,都随他。 Since he has made 1 st, We help him advance 15. 既然他已经做了初一,那朕就帮他推到十五。 We must let the Situ Lei first named king, actually my Great Yan official, lets its ten years, 20 years, 30 years, do not have face/color soldier/weapon to violate Yan land. 朕要让司徒雷一世名为君王,实为我大燕臣属,让其十年,二十年,三十年,都无颜兵犯燕土。 60,000-strong armored cavalry drives straight ahead enter Qian country Shangjing/go to the capital, 200,000-strong armored cavalry treads to extinguish Helian Family Wenren Family, this is overbearing ; 六万铁骑长驱入乾国上京,二十万铁骑踏灭赫连家闻人家,这是霸道; We, 朕, Must be popular the kingly way. ” 要兴王道。” Zhao Jiulang bends down to do obeisance, 赵九郎俯身而拜, Said: 道: „Discussing of royal courtier, the feudal official may a forcing it, be Your Majesty shares sorrow.” “朝臣之议,臣可一力压之,为陛下分忧。” „Jiulang, makes my Great Yan Steward-Bulwark, but was really laborious you.” “九郎,做我大燕的宰辅,可真是辛苦你了。” Zhao Jiulang raised the head, says with a smile: 赵九郎抬起头,笑道: „Can accompany the Your Majesty body side, rubbed a history to leave a good name, Jiulang gained.” “能陪陛下身侧,蹭一个青史留名,九郎赚了。” Sovereign of Yan referred to yellow scroll on imperial desk, 燕皇指了御案上的一道黄卷, The Wei Zhonghe associative compound, takes up to install the box it, delivers to front of below Zhao Jiulang. 魏忠河会意,将其拿起装盒,送到下方赵九郎面前。 „Situ Family envoy did not need an audience with thank for kindness, Our character, sent to him, making it transmit Situ Lei.” “司徒家的使者不用来觐见谢恩了,将朕的这幅字,送去给他,让其转交司徒雷。” „Feudal official obeys the aim.” “臣遵旨。” ......... ……… In a palace institute that Yanjing Court of State Ceremonial governs, just sent off in front of Court of State Ceremonial Vice Minister State of Cheng mission main envoy Dong Bian looks at that box. 燕京鸿胪寺所辖的一座宫院内,刚送走鸿胪寺少卿的成国使团正使董笾看着面前的那个盒子。 Long time, 良久, He puts out a hand to hint the surrounding several accompanying colleagues to open this box, 他伸手示意周围的几个随行同僚将这盒子打开, Is imperial decree yellow scroll, has not actually sealed, therefore is treats as the envoy gift to send out, has not announced an imperial decree. 是圣旨黄卷,却没有盖印,所以是当作使节礼物送出,没有宣旨。 Dong Bian proceeded several steps, several subordinates drew back to give away the position silently. 董笾往前走了几步,几位下属都默默地退下让出位置。 Lowers the head, 低头, Looks to yellow scroll, 看向黄卷, Sees only in the yellow volume to write eight mature and powerful large characters: 只见得黄卷上写着八个苍劲有力的大字: „Mountains foreign land, love affair same day.” “山川异域,风月同天。”
