Nightwatcher has the custom, Qi Refining Boundary is a bottom line.” Li Yuchun changed a very optional sitting posture, not like was so a moment ago aggressive, said: “你是个人才,当时在府衙后堂,我就已经确认。只是打更人有规矩,练气境是底线。”李玉春换了个很随意的坐姿,不像刚才那样咄咄逼人,道: „ As the Great Feng protector, your majesty securer, requests high some are normal. “作为大奉的守护者,陛下的保卫者,要求高一些是正常的。 „But you used the oneself skill to prove you, even Essence Refining Boundary, Nightwatcher is still willing to gather you.” “但你用自己的本事证明了你,即使是炼精境,打更人也愿意招揽你。” Is because my method is dirty enough, the thoughts are meticulous enough, therefore makes an exception to enroll? 是因为我的手段够脏,心思够缜密,所以破格录取？ Right, Silver Gong of this half Southern Barbarian bloodline, when cracking the tax silver case expressed that appreciates me very much. 对,这个一半南蛮血统的银锣,在破解税银案时就表示很欣赏我。 That complexion serious Silver Gong added: „Naturally, the main reason was Grand Princess recommended you.” 那位脸色严肃的银锣补充道:“当然,最主要的原因是长公主推荐了你。” Grand Princess?! Xu Qi'an is startled. 长公主？！许七安又是一惊。 Grand Princess is, why she must recommend, I do not know her. The volume... I have truly heard her in Yunlu Academy. 长公主是哪位,她为什么要推荐,我根本不认识她啊。额...我确实在云鹿书院里听说过她。 But, we have never seen, why does she recommend me to Nightwatcher? 但,我们从未见过,她为何向打更人推举我？ The confusion and puzzled of Xu Qi'an full belly, two Silver Gong does not seem like for the plan that he dispels doubt.

Xu Qi'an suddenly. 监察百官....贪墨国库钱粮的周侍郎与打更人不是一个阵营,甚至,周侍郎的倒台也有打更人组织在推波助澜....许七安恍然。 „Deputy Minister Zhou must end sooner or later, we have started to cope with him, is only your small scheme, helping us speed up the progress.” That complexion serious Silver Gong said. “周侍郎迟早要完,我们已经开始着手对付他,只是你的小小计谋,帮我们加快了进度。”那位脸色严肃的银锣说道。 Li Yuchun looked at his one eyes, said: „Sir Sun, according to before agreed that this person I accepted, please give us a conversation the space.” 李玉春看了他一眼,道:“孙大人,按照之前约定好的,这个人我收下,请给我们一点交谈的空间。” Silver Gong surnamed Sun does not walk, but is staring at Xu Qi'an: „You have the power of choice, with him with me.” 姓孙的银锣不走,而是凝视着许七安:“你有选择的权力,跟他还是跟我。” „Between both of us the power difference is not big, but he dies to recognize the principle, does not know flexible, with his Copper Gong general, but with my Copper Gong, most three years can buy one also to calculate the good yard in the inner city.” “我们两人之间的权力差别不大,但他这个人死认理,不知变通,跟着他的铜锣过的一般,而跟着我的铜锣,最多三年就能在内城买一栋还算不错的小院。” Works for three years, a capital suite... also really lets the person the seduction that is hard to resist .... The Xu Qi'an tactful rejection gathering of Silver Gong Sun, said: 工作三年,首都一套房...还真是让人难以抗拒的诱惑....许七安委婉的拒绝了孙银锣的招揽,道: „When initially tax silver case, Sir Li gave me the merit has redeemed the opportunity, this benevolence I have recorded, I want to work under his hand.” “当初税银案时,李大人给了我将功赎过的机会,这份恩情我一直记着,我想在他手底下做事。” This is only one of the reasons, another reason, he is not willing to violate the conscience, does too „fishes side door” deal. 这只是原因之一,另一个原因,他不愿违背本心,做太多“捞偏门”的勾当。 The Silver Gong Sun slight nod, commended: „Understood being full of gratitude is the good deed.” 孙银锣微微点头,赞许道:“懂的知恩图报是好事。” Going out that he does not yearn. 他毫不留恋的出去了。 Waits for the gate to close, Li Yuchun referred to opposite chair, modest saying with a smile: „Sits, introduces oneself, this official Li Yuchun, later is your boss, you can call directly. If feels is not familiar with, shouted Sir Li.” 等门关上,李玉春指了指对面的椅子,温和的笑道:“坐,自我介绍一下,本官李玉春,以后是你的头儿,你可以直接这么称呼。如果觉得不习惯,喊李大人也可以。” Shouted that you Elder Brother Chun is good .... Xu Qi'an takes a seat, slightly had shouted sound „Sir Li” cautious. 喊你春哥行不行....许七安入座,略有拘谨的喊了声“李大人”。 „Works under me, must have no qualms in the heart, this you were sure to remember.” After Li Yuchun warned one, started to introduce the Nightwatcher organization: “在我麾下做事,要无愧于心,这点你切记。”李玉春告诫一句后,开始介绍打更人组织: „ In Nightwatcher, what lowest level is unpaid laborer, without establishment, what is dry is the odd jobs. Next is Copper Gong, is proper Nightwatcher, at least is Qi Refining Boundary, monthly salary five taels of silver two dan of rice. Upward is Silver Gong, enjoys the Company Commander treatment. “在打更人里,最底层的是白役,没有编制,干的是杂活。其次是铜锣,是正经的打更人,至少是练气境,月俸五两银子二石米。往上就是银锣,享百户待遇。 „Above Silver Gong is Golden Gong, is the position of maximum level.

Specific business, you in the future slowly familiar.” Li Yuchun is carefully examining Xu Qi'an: “打更人的职责,监察百官,守护京城。具体业务,你往后慢慢熟悉。”李玉春审视着许七安: „You now are the Essence Refining Boundary peak, I have two to suggest: First, slowly the accumulation meritorious service, waits for the opportunity. Second, pays four hundred taels of silver, I help you open Heavenly Gate.” “你现在是炼精境巅峰,我有两个建议:一,慢慢积累功勋,等待机会。二,支付四百两银子,我帮你开天门。” Xu Qi'an without hesitation: „I choose second.” 许七安毫不犹豫:“我选第二个。” Li Yuchun narrowed the eye: „Very rich.” 李玉春眯了眯眼:“挺富有的嘛。” „Directorate of Astronomy Miss Caiwei lends my.” The Xu Qi'an face not loyalty does not jump flings the pot to the big eye beautiful woman. “司天监的采薇姑娘借给我的。”许七安脸不红心不跳的把锅甩给大眼美人。 Li Yuchun nods: „I first arrange you to change the household register, goes through the related formalities.” 李玉春点了点头:“我先安排你更改户籍,办理相关手续。” He said that went out, crossed one, leads to narrow the eyes a youth and serious in speech and manner youth comes. 他说完就出门了,过了一阵,领着眯眯眼青年和不苟言笑的青年进来。 „Song Tingfeng.” Smiles to narrow the man of eye to introduce oneself, high and low sizes up Xu Qi'an: „You can, come, became the colleague?” “宋廷风。”笑起来就眯眼睛的男人自我介绍,上下打量许七安:“你可以啊,进来一趟,成同僚了？” „Zhu Guangxiao.” The serious in speech and manner youth said, then no longer spoke. “朱广孝。”不苟言笑的青年说完,便不再说话。 Xu Qi'an follows two people to go through into the duty formalities, on the road, Song Tingfeng tone optional chat: 许七安跟着两人去办理入职手续,路上,宋廷风语气随意的聊天: „Follows Chief Li to work, as a whole is quite relaxed, without so many broken matters of manipulating strategically. The fault is making money time is discrete, small corrupt indifferent, do not go too far.” “跟着李头儿做事,总体上比较轻松,没那么多勾心斗角的破事。坏处就是捞钱的时候要谨慎,小贪无所谓,不要太过分。” „Can you three ten taels of silver also me?” Xu Qi'an is staring at him sincerely. “那你能把三十两银子还我吗？”许七安真诚的凝视着他。 Song Tingfeng returns by a more sincere look: „When have I collected your money?” 宋廷风回以更真诚的眼神:“我什么时候收过你的钱？” .....

You can choose one of them to inquire, but can only ask a question.” 宋廷风笑道:“他们两人手里的锦盒,一只里面是空的,一只里面有东西。你可以挑选其中一人询问,但只能问一个问题。” „However in them, the person only told the lie, only told the truth.” “而他们之中,有一个人只说假话,一个只说真话。” Song Tingfeng „hey”: „You have the time that one burns a joss stick to ponder, I cannot give you any prompt.” 宋廷风“嘿”了一声:“你有一炷香的时间去思考,我不能给你任何提示。” Zhu Guangxiao brief and to the point reminder: „This issue is very difficult, you think carefully.” 朱广孝言简意赅的提醒道:“这个问题很难,你仔细想。” Song Tingfeng nods: „ Although Duke Wei said that this is only the small game, the person but who can guess right is few. Although I thoroughly comprehended afterward, but has passed the time of having burnt a joss stick. 宋廷风点点头:“虽然魏公说这只是小游戏,但能猜对的人很少。我虽然事后悟透了,但已经过了一炷香的时间。 „It is said only then Sir Golden Gong, can thoroughly comprehend this topic in 20 breaths.” “据说只有金锣大人们,才能在二十息之内悟透这题。” The petty local officials selected fragrance, is placed in the side. 吏员点了一根香,摆在旁侧。 This simple logical topic, my previous life does not know that has gnawed many. 这种简单的逻辑题,我上辈子不知道啃过多少。 Xu Qi'an turns head to ask the left petty local official: „If you are he, what you will tell me?” 许七安扭头问左边的吏员:“如果你是他,你会告诉我什么？” The petty local official is a little ignorant, does not seem to think that Xu Qi'an will ask such issue, pondered some little time, stuffy sound said: „Does not have the thing.” 那吏员有点懵,似乎没想到许七安会问这样的问题,思考了好一会儿,闷声道:“没有东西。” Xu Qi'an nods, puts out a hand according to the brocade box in right yamen runner hand: „Thing in this brocade box.” 许七安点点头,伸手按在右边衙役手里的锦盒:“东西在这只锦盒里。” Song Tingfeng opens mouth, complexion stiff looks to the facial paralysis companion: „How long?” 宋廷风张了张嘴,脸色僵硬的看向面瘫同伴:“多久？” The Zhu Guangxiao tone is somewhat depressed: „It is not the petty local official dazed time, 12 breaths ....” 朱广孝语气有些郁闷:“不算吏员愣神的功夫,十二息....” Air silent one second, Song Tingfeng cupped the hands, helpless shakes the head: „You can break the tax silver case, is not the blind cat bumps into the dead mouse.” 空气沉默了一秒,宋廷风拱了拱手,无奈摇头:“你能破税银案,不是瞎猫碰到死耗子。” He is knows that Xu Qi'an this character, Li Yuchun is one of the tax silver case chief umpire officers, monster that outside at that time Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao worked to a frazzle tracing that do not have. 他是知道许七安这号人物的,李玉春是税银案的主审官之一,当时宋廷风和朱广孝就在外面累死累活的追踪不存在的妖物。 After the tax silver case broke, as the participant of case, he naturally knows existence of Xu Qi'an. 税银案破了之后,作为案件的参与者,他自然就知道许七安的存在。
