Southeast Auspicious Light City, in some big dwelling. 瑞光城东南,某一处大宅院内。 Here brilliantly illuminated, had shone one whole evening. 这里灯火通明,已是亮了一整晚。 In the great hall sits many young commissioners and scholars, at this moment is talking in whispers, when often looks to the entrance, resembles is waiting for anything. 大堂之中坐着不少年轻事务官和士子,此刻正在窃窃私语着,并时不时望向门口,似是在等着什么。 On the seat of honor is straight eyebrows slanting upwards and outwards flies upwards, the heroic spirit thrives, the around thirty young scholar, he wears the round collared azure garment robe, the looks are straight, the complexion is serious, looks at has the impressive and dignified manner. 主座上是一名剑眉飞扬,英气勃发,三旬左右的年轻文士,他身着圆领青衫袍,姿容端正,面色严肃,看着极具威仪。 Outside hears rapid sound of footsteps, the people look, saw a scholar to have the exciting color to step aside from the half step, in after threshold he stumbled, staggered. 外面传来一阵急促的脚步声,众人一齐看去,就见有一名士子带着兴奋之色自外快步了进来,在经过门槛时他绊了一下,不由一个踉跄。 But that person has not cared, shoves open to try to come to support by the arm his person, holds up letter in hand, raised, said: „Yamen Lord, everyone, Profound Mansion that side news, had confirmed that this time person who intrudes Peaceful Sun Academy, indeed is the Divine Army person.” 可其人没怎么在乎,推开试图前来搀扶他的人,举起手中的帖子,扬了扬,道:“衙君,诸位,玄府那边的消息,已经确认了,这次闯入泰阳学宫的人,的确是神尉军的人。” Such remarks, both sides in the person of sitting all are mind rouses. 此言一出,两旁在坐之人无不是精神一振。 That scholars walk to go forward excitedly, gives the young scholar on seat of honor letter, the latter received, opens looks, „Su Kuang?” Side his vision carries over attendant that stands, said: „Xiaowu, do you know this person?” 那士子兴奋走上前,把贴子递给主座上的年轻文士,后者接过,打开一看,“苏匡？”他目光移向旁边站立的役从,道:“小武,你知道这个人么？” attendant bows saying: „Yamen Lord, this is the promising youth in Divine Army, that person is good at spying on the privacy and concealment extremely hides, very by thinking highly of Army Inspector Pang.” 役从躬身回道:“衙君,这是神尉军里的后起之秀,极为其人擅长窥探隐私和隐匿藏身,很受庞军候的器重。” In the place some people sneer saying: „The Divine Army person intrudes Peaceful Sun Academy during Scholars' Discussion unexpectedly blatantly, wantonly destruction, but also the intention offending somebody life, what do they want to make? This matter we must ascertain on Political Council tomorrow!” 座中有人冷笑道:“神尉军的人居然在士议期间公然闯入泰阳学宫,大肆破坏,还意图伤人性命,他们想要做什么？此事我们明日必须在都堂上问个清楚！” This discussed obtains many people to approve of immediately. 此议立刻得到了不少人赞同。 and someone said: „Is good because of this Profound Mansion deals efficiently, not only has not called Divine Army to work, but also held the chief criminal, we cannot let up this rare opportunity!” 又有人道:“好在这次玄府应对得力,非但没叫神尉军得逞了去,还抓住了罪魁祸首,我们绝不能放过这个难得机会！” The people all nod, this year's Scholars' Discussion, they got the winning side compared with the old times slightly, originally thought to can defend this advantage to be good finally, has not thought finally, Divine Army revealed such big careless mistake unexpectedly. 众人皆是点头,今年的士议,比较往年他们稍稍占据了上风,本来以为到最后能守住这个优势就不错了,可没想到到了最后,神尉军居然露出了这么大一个纰漏。 The young scholar puts down letter, said: „We discussed that how should use good this matter.” 年轻文士放下帖子,道:“那我们就议一议,该如何利用好此事。” The people busy cheer up, states views. 众人忙是振作精神,纷纷各抒己见。 After resulting in the opinion unifies, was discussing planned a regulation to come out, examined thin several, after seeing has nothing what oversight again, decided. 待得意见统一之后,又商量着拟了一个章程出来,细审了几遍,见再无有什么疏漏后,就定了下来。 The young scholar sees the matter to settle on, stands the body saying: „That everyone gentleman then please go back, tomorrow Scholars' Discussion, will handle affairs according to this!” 年轻文士见事情拿定,站起来身道:“那诸位君子便请回去吧,明日士议,就照此行事！” The numerous scholars stand up, solemn expression bows with hands clasped toward him. 众士子都是站起,肃容朝他一揖。 After is sends off, the young scholar from meeting Guest Hall comes out, returned to the study room, although now it's already dawn, but he still in great spirits. 将人都是送走后,年轻文士从会客堂出来,回到了书房内,尽管此时已是平旦时分了,可他仍然精神奕奕。 After sitting down, he drank green tea, calmed down, to following to ask in side attendant: „The post that I've just read, seizes Su Kuang that two, including Gentleman Zhang, isn't that the one who killed the young salamander previously?” 坐下之后,他喝了一口清茶,定了定心绪,向跟在身边的役从问道:“我方才观帖子,抓捕苏匡的那二位,其中有一个张君子,莫不就是此前斩杀夭螈的那位么？” attendant said: „Right, is he.” 役从道:“对,就是他。” The young scholar slight nod, said: „Is good because of having this two.” 年轻文士微微点头,道:“好在有这两位。” He is very clear, if this Peaceful Sun Academy were really destroyed, even if unimportant miscellaneous storehouse, but matter, once spreads, will return inevitably vacillates Protectorate up and down to the Profound Mansion confidence. 他很清楚,这次泰阳学宫若是真的遭到破坏,哪怕只是不重要的杂库,可事情一旦传扬出去,势必回动摇都护府上下对玄府的信心。 Asked that you close Peaceful Sun Academy Protector could not hold continually, what's the big deal maintained Protectorate's to be calm and steady? 试问你连近在咫尺的泰阳学宫都护持不了,那又怎么维护都护府的安稳？ This will also create enormous passive to them, perhaps before the even/including, must hand over in the advantage that on Scholars' Discussion has. 这会给他们也造成极大的被动,说不定连之前在士议上取得的优势要交出去。 attendant said at this time: „Yamen Lord, a matter, about that Gentleman Zhang.” He walked, at young scholar side whisper several. 役从这时道:“衙君,还有一件事,也是关于那位张君子的。”他走了上来,在年轻文士身旁耳语了几句。 Does “Oh? have this grade of matter? ” “哦？还有这等事？” The young scholar hears this news, in the surface also changes countenance, sighed: „It seems like this Gentleman Zhang brings to us, incessantly a pleasant surprise.” 年轻文士听到这个消息,面上也是动容,感叹道:“看来这位张君子给我们带来的,不止一个惊喜啊。” He thinks, said: „Xiaowu, you arrange, when will I meet with this Gentleman Zhang.” He carries the teacup, said: „Such talent, buries in Profound Mansion, really was extremely a pity.” 他想了想,道:“小武,你安排一下,什么时候我和这位张君子见上一面。”他端起茶杯,道:“这样的人才,埋没在玄府中,实在太过可惜了。” attendant said: „Does Yamen Lord want to make him change to Political Council to administer? But Gentleman Zhang is in Profound Mansion, can cultivate techniques, be able to prolong life, aloof, is not necessarily willing to come?” 役从道:“衙君是想让他转到都堂治政上来？可是张君子身在玄府,能修法,能延寿,超然物外,未必肯来吧？” young scholar laughingly says: „No one does not let his cultivation, but I think on Political Council am easier to display his talent, my Celestial Xia rites and music, rites as power, music as strength. The power and strength, both always do not divide, but fulfills rites and music, my Celestial Xia person should for it matter.” 年轻文士失笑道:“没有人不让他修行,只是我以为在都堂上更易发挥他的才华,我天夏礼乐,礼为权制,乐为力张。权与力,两者从来都是不分的,而践行礼乐,也正是我天夏人该为之事。” attendant cups the hands and says: „Yes, Yamen Lord, I will arrange.” 役从拱手道:“是,衙君,我会安排的。” The young scholar thinks again, said: „Un, under must respect the opinion of Chief Xiang, if he regards as important that Gentleman Zhang, that then considers as finished.” 年轻文士再是一思,道:“嗯,还是要尊重下项主事的意见,如果他十分看重那位张君子,那便算了。” „Wait.” “等等。” When attendant is just about, the young scholar stopped by calling him, said: „Crossed this moon/month, Mo'er seven years old, next month you deliver to him the academy young study, had better be able instruct by this Gentleman Zhang.” 役从正要下去时,年轻文士又喊住了他,道:“过了这月,墨儿就七岁了,下月你把他送到学宫的幼学里,最好能由这位张君子来授业。” attendant earnestly says: „Yamen Lord felt relieved, I will complete.” 役从认真道:“衙君放心,我会办妥的。” Meanwhile, in Profound Mansion Affairs Hall, is also holding another dialogue. 与此同时,玄府事务堂中,也在进行着另一场对话。 Fan Lan said: „senior brother, had investigated thoroughly, that corvee named Big Yang, when was the board game piece of Divine Army arrangement, that person for went bad my Profound Mansion prestige during Scholars' Discussion, was good because of this has junior brother Zhang in that place, controlled the incident promptly.” 范澜道:“师兄,已是查清楚了,那个叫杨大的力役,当就是神尉军安排的棋子了,其人为得就是在士议期间坏我玄府声望,好在这回有张师弟在那处,及时控制住了事端。” Xiang Chun nods slowly, the matter floods is being crude and arbitrary, comes toward, not mincing matter, but this is the Divine Army consistent style, because they did not reason with early. 项淳缓缓点头,前后整件事充斥着粗暴与蛮横,直来直往,毫不掩饰,可这就是神尉军一贯的风格,因为他们早是不讲理惯了。 He asked: „How does junior brother Zhang discover this matter?” 他问道:“张师弟是怎么发现这件事的？” Fan Lan said: „junior brother Zhang said that oneself east travels that several years in Mountain of Serenity, sees similar thing, the native language has been called ‚napzac’, the meaning is ‚contagious person’, mainly through own explosion, spreads the body fluid that in the body preserves, as long as a living person touches it, it will become the source of the epidemic outbreak, Divine Army this time intention, is quite dangerous.” 范澜道:“张师弟说自己在安山之东游历那几年,见过类似的东西,土著语称为‘纳普扎察’,意思是‘散播疾病的人’,主要是通过自身的爆炸,将身体中储藏的体液扩散出去,只要活人沾到,就会成为疫病的传播源头,神尉军这次的用心,极为险恶啊。” Xiang Chun also asked: „junior brother Zhang had saying that went to miscellaneous storehouse for his what?” 项淳又问:“张师弟有说为他什么去杂库么？” Fan Lan returns said: „I have asked that junior brother Zhang said that is purchases medicine material, I also investigated, this matter real, before junior brother Zhang enters Profound Mansion asked the person to do this matter, should be only by chance.” 范澜回道:“我问过了,张师弟说是去采买药材,我也查过了,这件事是真的,早在张师弟入玄府之前就拜托人去做这件事了,应该只是碰巧。” Xiang Chun nods, said: „Good, laborious junior brother Fan.” 项淳点点头,道:“好,辛苦范师弟了。” Fan Lan said with a smile: „My laborious anything, this time junior brother Zhang and junior sister Xin that prevents the Divine Army plot, may have no relations with me. Right senior brother, how that should Su Kuang process?” 范澜笑道:“我辛苦什么,这次阻止神尉军阴谋的张师弟和辛师妹,与我可没有什么关系。对了师兄,那个苏匡该怎么处理？” Xiang Chun sinking sound said: „looks at, do not let him die well, this person lived the ratio dead valuable.” 项淳沉声道:“好好看着,别让他死了,这个人活着比死了更有价值。” Fan Lan said: „I understood.” His cups the hands, „, if no matter, I then first said goodbye.” 范澜道:“我明白了。”他一拱手,“若无什么事,那我便先告辞了。” Xiang Chun sets out to see off, after transferring, Xu Ying had walked from side hall, said: „That Zhang Yu, his sword is not common, likely is magical item.” 项淳起身相送,待转回来后,许英已是从偏厅里走了出来,道:“那个张御,他的剑不一般,很可能是件法器。” Xiang Chun beckons with the hand saying: „That also has nothing, perhaps junior brother Zhang is Xia child, which old cultivator the ancestor with has the friendship, previously he should be depends upon this sword killed young salamander, feared that feared he depends on this, in the future will affect cultivation.” 项淳摆手道:“那也没什么,张师弟是夏子,祖上说不定和哪位旧修有交情,此前他应该就是依靠这柄剑器斩杀了夭螈,怕就怕他过于倚仗于此,日后影响修持。” Perhaps he does not care about this matter, old cultivator regards as important these magical item, may look like in new techniques cultivator, this thing needs at times refining, extremely involves the energy, might as well concentrates on Grand Dao Chapter. 他不在乎这件事,旧修或许十分看重这些法器,可在新法修炼者看来,这东西需要时时祭炼,太过牵扯精力,还不如专注大道之章。 Although these magical item the present may be to depend on, but when cultivation base comes up, became the weak, if relied on for a long time, instead to oneself disadvantageous. 况且那些法器虽然眼下可作为倚仗,可等到修为一上去,就变为鸡肋了,若是长久依赖,反而对自身不利。 Xu Ying said: „senior brother feared that he does affect oneself cultivation? I think like this just right, there's no need to correct it.” 许英道:“师兄怕他影响自身修持么？我以为这样正好,不必要去纠正。” The Xiang Chun silent moment, is sighing nodded. 项淳默然片刻,叹息着点了下头。 Now „Genius Plan” has resulted in permitting of Profound Leader, Bai Qingqing and Zhang Yu are, must be advanced the two person who the onstage that they designate comes. 现在“秀林之策”已得了玄首的允准,白擎青和张御正是他们所选定的,要被推到前台来的两个人。 Then two people, if has certain battle efficiency, instead can guarantee oneself makes one's home, is easier to attract the external forces and enemy vision. 那么二人若是拥有一定的战斗力,反而更能保证自己的存身下去,更易吸引外部势力和敌对者的目光。 Under this kind of situation, they can do, like spoiling by trying is too helpful general, pushes up the battle efficiency of two person as far as possible, as for foundation and so on thing, that did not need to think. Profound Mansion does not count on them to be able cultivation to the profound position, it's fine as long as they can be a good shield for the true genius. 在这等情况下,他们所能做的,就是如同拔苗助长一般,尽量推高两个人的战斗力,至于根基之类的东西,那根本就不用去多想了。玄府也不指望他们能修炼到高深境地,只要能为真正的俊才做好掩护便可。 Xu Ying sees Xiang Chun still to sigh, urges: „senior brother, does not need to regret, they as Profound Mansion disciple, resulted in the instruction of Profound Mansion, deserves pays for this reason, waits for master nephew Ji to grow, all will change for the better.” 许英见项淳还在叹息,劝道:“师兄,不用惋惜,他们身为玄府弟子,又得了玄府的传授,也该当为此付出,等季师侄成长起来,一切都会好转的。” Xiang Chun shakes the head saying: „I did not regret, since had decided that that thinks uselessly, but I felt, junior brother Zhang he understands east of Mountain of Serenity many native tribe language, but also knows there various secret, this grade of talent, if pushes out, is really somewhat a pity.” 项淳摇头道:“我不是惋惜,既然已是决定了,那多思无益,只是我觉得,张师弟他是懂得安山以东不少土著部族语言的,还知晓那里的各种秘辛,这等人才,要是就这么推出去,实在有些可惜啊。” Xu Ying thought of anything, said with amazement: „Looks at the meaning of senior brother, is it possible that also wants to look for that thing?” 许英似想到了什么,惊讶道:“看师兄的意思,莫非也是想找那个东西么？” Xiang Chun sees outside by the Affairs Hall window, the sinking sound said: „That thing, although to us there is no use, but if can first step find, that to us advantageous!” 项淳透过事务堂的窗户看到外面,沉声道:“那东西虽然对我们来说没什么用处,可若是能先一步找到,那将对我们大为有利！” Xu Ying lowers the head to think, said: „I have also looked at the appraisal of Fan Lan junior brother to this two person, from ambition and aptitude, that Bai Qingqing should be higher, since this, that might as well first pushes this Bai Qingqing in front, that Zhang Yu first on slow one step, but cannot give up, the thing of this/should church must teach, if Bai Qingqing has problems, but must force up by him, continuation is master nephew Ji completes to cover up!” 许英低头想了想,道:“我也看过范澜师弟对这两个人的评价,从进取心和资质来看,那个白擎青应该更高一筹,既然这样,那不妨先把这个白擎青推在前面,那张御就先缓上一步,不过也不能放弃,该教会的东西还是要教会,白擎青若是出了问题,还需由他顶上去,继续为季师侄做好遮掩！” ...... …… ...... ……
