Suddenly, was the past in January/one month, time already to late April. The Auspicious Light City sky as before is the indication of nothing raining, recently can see that in academy often has at the back of assistant of bucket waters the flowers and trees everywhere. 眨眼间,又是过去一月,时间已是到了四月下旬。瑞光城的上空依旧是没有任何下雨的征兆,近来可以看到学宫中经常有背着水桶的助役四处浇灌花木。 For serveral days, Zhang Yu has actively been making various preparations, he assigned/life Li Qinghe to go to each medicine material market to collect various types of antiques and strange monster bone fragment, in thing that but looks for at present, has not met to contain to have source energy. 这些天来,张御一直积极做着各种准备,他命李青禾去各个药材市场上搜集各种古物和异怪骨片,只是目前所找回来的东西中,还没有遇到蕴藏有源能的。 He is also very clear, this matter is anxiously, what need maintains the patience, that said when does not permit to harvest. 他也很清楚,这种事是急不来的,需要的是保持耐心,那说不准什么时候就能有所收获。 That side miscellaneous storehouse sent two batch of strange monster bone fragment this month actually one after another, spirit essence that there absorbs adds on original all again, almost enough his read two multi- seal. 倒是这个月杂库那边又接连送来了两批异怪骨片,那里所吸纳的神元再加上原来所有,差不多又够他观读两个多章印了。 Now he and other end of the month this batch of bone fragment, when this batch, when can sufficiently collect spirit essence of read three seal. 如今他就在等月末这一批骨片,等这批到了,当就能凑足观读三印的神元了。 If only here is counted sword seal that Heart Light Seal, has that unable to fill, the gap is big. However from good, on the one hand, this total ratio had spirit essence not to have that seal read came. 只这里若算上那心光之印、还有那始终未能填补上的剑印,缺口还是不小。不过从好的一方面来看,这总比有了神元却无章印观读来的强。 On this day, he ended school teaching, when is preparing the work that revises all students to leave behind, suddenly in the heart moves, looks up, sees a person who wears the Protectorate government official clothes walked, that person to his cups the hands and says: „Disturbed, is Auxiliary Teacher Zhang?” 这一日,他结束了学堂授课,正准备批改诸学子留下的作业时,忽然心中一动,抬头看去,就见一个身着都护府官吏衣冠的人走了进来,其人对他拱手道:“打扰了,可是张辅教么？” Zhang Yu stands up, a ritual, said: „Is I, does not know that your excellency is......” 张御站起身,还有一礼,道:“是我,不知尊驾是……” That person of looked around, said: „Can Auxiliary Teacher Zhang, facilitate to speak several words?” 那人看了看四下,道:“张辅教,可方便说几句话么？” Zhang Yu is sideways to give a hand signal, said: „Here invited.” 张御侧身做一个手势,道:“这边请。” Two people arrived at behind the school within indoor, after is sits down, that person introduces oneself: „Auxiliary Teacher Zhang, my Qi Song, is Protectorate Department of Visitors manager, this time was entrusted to come, to want by the commanding officer to consult your one, now in these students in your school, whose present can conduct the exchange with Hard Claw Tribe native?” 两人来到了学堂后方的间室内,待都是坐下之后,那人自我介绍道:“张辅教,我名齐嵩,乃是都护府典宾司从事,这次是受主官嘱托而来,想要请教你一句,如今你学堂中的这些学生里,有谁现在就能与坚爪部落的土著进行交流的？” Zhang Yu said: „These students are very intelligent, when may learn/study after all short, and has not contacted with the Hard Claw Tribe person seriously. Hard Claw Tribe person exceptionally combative, if spoke incorrectly the words, its feeling received the insult, that will resort to the military force, if sends these scholars to go now rashly, that may incur the consequence that no one wants to see.” 张御道:“这些学生都很聪慧,可毕竟学习时短,且没有与坚爪部落的人当真接触过。坚爪部落的人异常好斗,若是说错了话,其感觉受到了侮辱,那就会诉诸于武力,如果现在贸然派这些学子前往,那可能会引发谁都不想看到的后果。” Qi Song said: „The news that since I obtain looked, Auxiliary Teacher Zhang is quite familiar with Hard Claw Tribe, if makes you communicate with this tribe, how many assurances you do have?” 齐嵩道:“从我得到的消息看,张辅教对坚爪部落较为熟悉,如果让你与这个部落沟通,你有多少把握呢？” Zhang Yu tranquil say/way: „That must look that Protectorate hopes which I achieved.” 张御平静道:“那要看都护府希望我做到哪一步了。” Qi Song thinks, the nod said: „I knew.” His rise from the seat, cups the hands, „many thanks Auxiliary Teacher Zhang considers truthfully.” 齐嵩想了想,点头道:“我知道了。”他自座上起身,一拱手,“多谢张辅教如实相告。” Zhang Yu set out also a ritual, then gazed after that person to depart. 张御起身还了一礼,便目送其人离去。 Under his heart changes mind, it seems like Protectorate prepares and Hard Claw Tribe formal contact. 他心下转念,看来都护府已是准备与坚爪部落正式接触了。 He in the attention newspaper, has been good recently last month, but, the news about Hard Claw Tribe has started to be many since this month, should be the present enters Chang Field Hard Claw Tribe native to be a suitable number. 他最近一直在关注报纸,上个月还好,但这个月以来,关于坚爪部落的消息就开始多起来了,该是如今进入敞原的坚爪部落土著达到了一个相当的数目。 He guessed that perhaps this also has the relations with the recent rainwater change. The Protectorate throughout two moon/month has not rained, perhaps the upper and middle reaches did not have the issue, but downstream water flow was inevitably affected, this will cause these Hard Claw Tribe people to swim the activity unavoidably upward, letting Protectorate is unable to neglect again. 他猜测这或许与最近的雨水变化也有关系。都护府全境两个月未曾下雨,或许上中游还没有问题,可下游的水势必然受到影响,这难免会造成这些坚爪部落的人往上游活动,让都护府无法再忽视下去了。 Returns to the school, he discovered that figure slender girl is covering arrange/cloth made/system register book hold/container stands there, access road/simply said: „An Chu'er, how you came back, what matter has?” 回到学堂之中,他发现一名身形纤细的少女捂着布制的文册包站在那里,便道:“安初儿,你怎么又回来了,有什么事么？” An Chu'er bows to his one, somewhat said anxiously: „mister, had the people in clan to look for me a moment ago, asked me, if mister is not, can exchange with the Hard Claw Tribe person alone, I thought that this matter must inform mister one.” 安初儿对他一个鞠躬,有些紧张道:“先生,刚才有族里的人过来找我,问我若是先生不在,能不能单独与坚爪部落的人进行交流,我觉得这件事要告知先生一声。” Zhang Yu nodded, said: „I knew, An Chu'er, thank you told teacher this matter, you learned/studied well, other matters do not go to worry.” 张御点了点头,道:“我知道了,安初儿,谢谢你来告诉老师这件事,你好好学习,其他的事不要去太操心。” An Chu'er un, said layer on layer/heavily: „mister, I first walked.” 安初儿重重嗯了一声,道:“先生,那我先走了。” „Wait,” Zhang Yu will put out a booklet from the sleeve, gives her saying: „Takes this, recently I could have academy, if has no time to come to the school, you can first illuminate this study.” “等等,”张御将从袖子里拿出一本小册子,递给她道:“拿着这个,近来我可能要出学宫一趟,若是无暇来学堂,你可以先照着这个学。” An Chu'er received with both hands, earnestly says: „mister, my intention study.” 安初儿用双手接过,认真道:“先生,我会用心学的。” At the same time, in Protectorate Administrative Office inner hall, Peaceful Sun Academy proctor towards station(ed) under the hall, is suffering severe inquiring of newly appointed Office Duke Liu Fengquan late. 同一时刻,都护府治署内堂之中,泰阳学宫的学监迟朝站在堂下,正在遭受新上任的署公柳奉全的严厉问询。 The Liu Fengquan tone said seriously: „Proctor Chi, Peaceful Sun Academy has long known that this matter is right? You why not on and Times Protectorate?” 柳奉全语气严肃道:“迟学监,泰阳学宫早就知道这件事了对不对？你们为什么不上及时报都护府？” Proctor Chi replied unhurriedly: „During in February/two months Scholars' Discussion, academy was unable to confirm this matter with enough time, in March/three months Dukedom Yao is no longer in office, Dukedom Liu you have not taken office, on Political Council unmanned host, mentioned rashly, feared that initiated is too chaotic, but academy had previously reported Protector, wants to come not to calculate that has not reported.” 迟学监不慌不忙回答道:“二月士议期间,学宫还未能来得及确认此事,三月姚公府去职,柳公府你还未曾履任,都堂上无人主持,贸然提及,怕引发太多混乱,不过学宫此前早已经禀告过都护了,想来也不算没有上报。” Liu Fengquan stared at his a while, said: „Dukedom Yao also knows this matter?” 柳奉全盯了他一会儿,道:“姚公府也是知道这件事的吧？” Proctor Chi stands there, without reply. 迟学监站在那里,没有回答。 Liu Fengquan has not asked again, sits on the chair, waves to make the action of driving away shape, said: „Proctor Chi, you go back, hopes that this time the person of arrangement will not mess things up.” 柳奉全也没有再问下去,坐在椅子上,挥手做驱赶状,道:“迟学监,你回去吧,希望这次你们的安排的人不会误事。” Proctor Chi cupped the hands, turned around. 迟学监拱了拱手,转身出去了。 Liu Fengquan stood up, crosses the hands behind the back looks below big Auspicious Light City, the facial expression is stern. 柳奉全站了起来,负手看着下方偌大的瑞光城,神情严峻深沉。 At this time manager stepped aside from, bowed saying: „Dukedom, Zhan Gong arrived.” 这时一名从事自外走进来,躬身道:“公府,詹公到了。” Liu Fengquan does not turn head, said: „Makes him come.” 柳奉全并不回头,道:“让他进来。” After a while, a leaning on a walking stick old man walked sluggishly, his whole face wrinkle, hair and beard is sparse, but the spirit is healthy and vigorous, two eyes is also very has god, he partly raises the walking stick, one is bowing with hands clasped to the front, said: „Dukedom.” 过了一会儿,一名拄拐老者慢腾腾走了进来,他满脸皱纹,发须稀疏,不过精神算健旺,两目也很是有神,他半提拐杖,对着前方一揖,道:“公府。” Liu Fengquan has turned round, said: „Zhan Gong sits down the speech.” 柳奉全回过身来,道:“詹公坐下说话吧。” Zhan Gong cups the hands, said slightly: „In front of Dukedom, where has the old man seat.” 詹公微微拱手,道:“公府面前,哪有老朽的座位。” Liu Fengquan has not urged, to return to the oneself seat again, flips official documents that has not just now read, after a while, raised the head saying: „You said the matter, can become?” 柳奉全也未再劝,回到了自己的座椅上,翻了翻方才一封未曾看完的公文,过了一会儿,才抬头道:“你说得事情,能成么？” Zhan Gong is leaning on the walking stick, the body is to actually support straightly, said leisurely: „old man, although now was not Peaceful Sun Academy libationer, but many people are willing to sell old man this thin surface.” 詹公拄着拐杖,身躯却是挺得笔直,悠悠言道:“老朽虽然现在不是泰阳学宫的祭酒了,但还有不少人愿意卖老朽这份薄面的。” Liu Fengquan looks at he, said: „I did not ask how you do, I only asked you, can complete?” 柳奉全看着他,道:“我不问你怎么做,我只问你,能不能做好？” In the eye of Zhan Gong pollution seems the fine glow to reappear, he said: „old man lived over 100 years old, but also never crossed says the oversized word, can complete, hehe, Dukedom waited to look and that's the end.” 詹公浑浊的眼睛中似有精芒浮现,他道:“老朽活了一百多岁了,还从未过说过大言,能不能做好,呵呵,公府等着看就是了。” Liu Fengquan looks at his several eyes, the nod said: „Good, I am waiting.” 柳奉全看他几眼,点头道:“好,我等着。” Zhang Yu leaves after the school, returned to the dwelling place, after he is the plan afternoon, walks toward miscellaneous storehouse, takes strange monster bone fragment that today possibly can deliver. 张御从学堂离开后,回到了居处,他本是打算过午之后就往杂库走一回,去取今日可能会送到的异怪骨片。 But he also not, when he makes the trip, teacher walks , the word said that Proctor Chi is invited. 可是他还未等到他成行,就有一名师教找上门来,言称迟学监有请。 The academy highest study duty is libationer, but this is only the nominal position, gives to veneration plaque of well known person, the one who is responsible for the concrete affair is proctor, therefore holds the post of this duty is academy in material meaning wields. 学宫的最高学职乃是祭酒,不过这只是名义上的职位,是授给有名望的人的尊位,负责具体事务的乃是学监,所以担任此职的才是实质意义上的学宫执掌。 Since one side this invitation, that other matters naturally can only first put. 既然这位有请,那其他事自然只能先放一边。 He is following this teacher, arrived in Peaceful Sun Academy main hall Kuiwen Hall. 他跟随着这位师教,一路来到了泰阳学宫的正殿奎文堂中。 Takes a step to enter this place, then sees above the great hall, proctor late toward sitting in central position, both sides are position highest four Study Supervisor, under is thirty is hall chief and manager again, Liu Guang, Zhu Anshi and Xin Yao three people also sit in this place at this moment, but can only accompany respectfully end the place. 迈步一入此间,便见大堂之上,学监迟朝坐于正中位置,两旁是地位最高的四堂学令,再下方是三十几名属堂主事及从事,柳光、朱安世、辛瑶三人此刻也是坐于此间,不过只能敬陪末座。 Before Proctor Chi, has not seen Zhang Yu, but had heard repeatedly his name, this moment one meets his, in the mind appears „clear meter god table, tall and straight handsome” these eight characters. 迟学监之前并没有见过张御,只是屡屡听说过他的名字,此刻一见他面,脑海中不禁浮现出“清仪神表,秀拔玉立”这八个字来。 Incessantly is he, presents for the first time other person who sees Zhang Yu, exclaimed in surprise unconsciously secretly. 不止是他,在座其余第一次见到张御的人,也是不觉暗自惊叹。 Zhang Yu arrives under the hall, joins palms and bows, „proctor is courteous, teachers and gentlemen is courteous.” 张御来到堂下,合手一揖,“学监有礼,诸位师君有礼。” The Proctor Chi nod returns a courtesy, said: „Auxiliary Teacher Zhang, please sit down.” 迟学监点头回礼,道:“张辅教,请坐吧。” Zhang Yu bows with hands clasped again, takes a seat before the people front seat, does not have the half a point to restrict the non- nature. 张御再是一揖,就在众人前方的席座前落座下来,并没有半分拘束不自然。 Proctor Chi observes his facial expression, sees him under this weaponry as before unflustered, calm and composed, nods unconsciously secretly. 迟学监观他面上神情,见他在这副阵仗下依旧从容不迫,神色自若,不觉暗暗点头。 He said: „Auxiliary Teacher Zhang, asks you to come this's intention today, you also knew.” 他道:“张辅教,今天请你来此的用意,想必你也是知道了。” Zhang Yu returns said: „In the morning Department of Visitors Manager Lin has sought me, what asked is with the matter that Hard Claw Tribe communicated, academy looks for my now, for this matter.” 张御回道:“上午有一位典宾司的林从事来寻过我,问的是与坚爪部落沟通的事,学宫现在找我此,想必也是为了这件事。” Proctor Chi sincere say/way: „Since you had been clear that unnecessary I did not say, the Protectorate's strategy was always suppress the north and comfort the south, above Chang Field has to surpass 5000 Hard Claw Tribe clan numerous nowadays, and has been possible to confirm that had existence of different god, south of Chang Field native scattered about several tens of thousands of, if these people were gathered, that will create the enormous evil consequence, at present it seems like, only then Auxiliary Teacher Zhang you can with their exchange, the responsibility that therefore you must shoulder was really big.” 迟学监正色道:“既然你已清楚,那多余的话我就不说了,都护府的策略向来是北剿南抚,敞原之上现如今已经有超过了五千名的坚爪部落族众,且已可确认有异神的存在,敞原以南的土著零零散散大约有数万,若是这些人被聚集起来,那将会造成极大恶果,目前看来,只有张辅教你能与他们交流沟通,所以你所要肩负的责任着实不小。” Sits Study Supervisor by Proctor Chi left hand has the sound said: „Since must do this matter, your present auxiliary teacher status rather somewhat lowered, we discussed that the preparation raises you for......” 坐在迟学监左手旁的一位学令出声道:“既然要做这件事,你现在辅教的身份就未免有些低了,我们商量了一下,准备提你为……” „Slow!” “慢着！” At this moment, old actually did not lose the loud and clear sound to step aside from transmit, interrupted his words, then saw a leaning on a walking stick old man to walk into the great hall, side handsome youngster are also supporting by the arm. 就在这时,一个苍老却又不失洪亮的声音自外传来,打断了他的话,而后就见一个拄拐老者步入了大堂,旁边还有一个英俊年轻人搀扶着。 Some people call out in alarm said: „Zhan Gong?” 有人惊呼道:“詹公？” The presenting various person majority are stood up, bows in salute to him, as the old man proceeds, the mouth shouted „Zhan Gong” the sound is also lingering on faintly. 在座诸人大多数都是站了起来,纷纷对他作揖,随着老者一路往前走来,口呼“詹公”之声也是不绝于耳。 Zhan Gong arrived at the front directly, is only having several steps the remote place to stop from the Proctor Chi position, he has turned around, observes the situation one, poked the place with the walking stick, said: „old man believes, at this matter, is acted by young child Zhan Zhitong, is more appropriate!” 詹公直接走到了前方,在距离迟学监的位置仅有几步之遥的地方才停下,他转过身,环视一圈下来,用拐杖杵了杵地,道:“老朽认为,在这件事上,由小儿詹治同出面,更为合适！” ...... …… ...... ……
