The Protectorate's six big yamens, will have twice public speaking every year. 都护府的六大衙署,每年都会有两次公开的宣讲。 This mainly explained the yamen to the bottom common people numerous various issues that worked to come across, as well as why sometimes must do that the reason was anything, which solution had, simultaneously gathered the exam posted notice that each place cities submitted, communicated by this high and low, alleviated the contradiction. 这主要是给底下民众讲解衙署在做事遇到的各种问题,以及有些时候为什么要这么做,理由是什么,解决的办法有哪些,同时收取各个地方城镇递交上来的检揭贴,以此沟通上下,缓和矛盾。 But each, is basically acted by chief and manager this grade of yamen senior official. 而每一回,基本都是由主事、从事这等衙署长吏出面。 In July 10 th on this day, was the day of Library Division Yamen speaking, because Chief Ji was aged, was struggling, therefore went by manager Jiang Dingyi. 七月初十这天,则是司吏衙署宣讲之日,因为吉主事老迈,精力不济,所以由从事蒋定易代为前往。 Was speaking that first, Library Division Yamen had communicated Minister of Justice Yamen on the 3rd in advance, asking it to clean up the path search that the yamen team must undergo, to guarantee security. 在宣讲前三日,司吏衙署已是先行沟通了司寇衙署,请其将衙署队伍所要经过的道路搜查清理一遍,以确保安全。 However understands the people who real situation know, Minister of Justice Yamen can also deal with the average person, facing these real assassins, such action is in the surface is also more attractive, has a psychological comfort. 不过明白真实情况的人都知道,司寇衙署也就是能对付一下普通人,面对那些真正的刺客,这样举动也就是表面上好看一些,有个心理上的安慰罢了。 Several days of time flashes by, quickly by 10 th this day. 几天时间一晃而过,很快到了初十这日。 The side solstice has, the carriages and horses team that this time must go on a journey has prepared appropriately before the yamen, the slightly cool crisp wind is moving the flag on insignia, everyone is standing silently, occasionally spreads the sound that clothes armor collides, at this time the warm golden dawn emits, stands looks in the terrace, the entire city has not regained consciousness, spacious light gray vault of heaven is sending out a unique quietness. 方至日出时分,这次要出行的车马队伍已是在衙署前准备妥当,微凉的爽风吹动着仪仗上的旗帜,所有人默默站立着,偶尔传出衣甲碰撞的声响,此时暖金色的晨光才方冒出,站在台地上看去,整个城市还未苏醒,空旷的浅灰色天穹正散发着一种独特的静谧。 Initially after carves, Jiang Dingyi leads attendant and personal bodyguard walked from the yamen, he and several guard teams leader greets, to standing there Zhang Yu serious cupped the hands, then rides had reinforced the big theater box carriage. 初刻过后,蒋定易带着役从和贴身护卫从衙署里走了出来,他和几个护卫队长打了声招呼,又对站在那里的张御郑重拱了下手,而后就乘上了一辆加固过的大厢马车。 As some compartment nearby people exude one to shout, several short brass wind instruments spread, the entire team then insignia lifts up high, starts rumble to forge ahead. 随着车厢附近有人发出一声呼喊,几声短促的铜号传出,整个队伍便仪仗高举,开始隆隆向前迈进。 This time they must from inner city terrace set off, across the entire city, however goes to approach harbor Request Hearing Square to the city outside, because the distance is long, the team is not the straight line marches forward, when achieves there, must approach in the corner. 这次他们需从内城台地出发,穿过整个城市,然而去到城外靠近港口的闻祈广场,由于路程较长,队伍也不是直线行进,所以达到那里时,说不定要临近隅中了。 Zhang Yu sees the team to start, was turns over/stands up to ride a big dark horse, took the reins single-handedly, is grasping Xia Sword, led the way slowly. Meanwhile, his heart lake is spreads, is paying attention to the surrounding sound momentarily. 张御见队伍启程,也是翻身骑上了一匹高大黑马,一手拿动缰绳,一手持着夏剑,缓缓前行。与此同时,他心湖则是扩散出去,随时留意着周围的动静。 His time has not worn the joint administrator long gown, but traded Profound Mansion daoist robe, the shell cape, the facial expression covered in the hat shadow, both hands wear the vermilllion glove. 他这次没有穿参治袍服,而是换了一身玄府道袍,外罩斗篷,脸容掩盖在了遮帽的阴影之中,双手戴着朱色手套。 Recently after True Embryo Seal built, he can feel, even if oneself has not inspired Heart Light, on the skin was also wrapped by glistening jade color, this is the body marches into one of the mystical attributes. 最近真胎之印修成之后,他能感觉到,自己哪怕没有引动心光,皮肤上也被一层莹莹玉色所包裹,这是身躯步入神异的表征之一。 This is extremely really noticeable, must therefore try to cover up, but only has when cultivation base gradually deepens, can restrain. 只是这委实太过令人瞩目,所以必须要设法遮掩,而唯有在修为逐渐加深时,才能自行收敛下去。 In the carriages and horses team has one team of 60 people of guard Protectorate, one team of 30 people of yamen aides, ten Minister of Justice, happen to are 100 people. 车马队伍里有一队六十人的都护府护卫,一队三十人的衙署侍从,还有十名司寇,正好是一百人。 This inside real elite is guard Protectorate, everyone has undergone the strict training, moreover all wears the iron armor, the military weapon is complete, two four horse Tuozhuai martial Beiche accompanies. 这里面真正的精锐是都护府护卫,人人都是经受过严格训练的,而且个个身着铁甲,武械齐全,还有两辆四马拖拽的武备车随行。 But Minister of Justice Yamen person, but is responsible for keeping the order at the appointed time, can ignore. 而司寇衙署的人,只是负责到时维持秩序,可以忽略不计。 That calls makes Qin Wu sword master also to lead the oneself ten apprentices to walk in the team, they exchanged the clothing and skin of Kui yamen aide at this time, the semblance seems like with the common guard has no difference. 那名唤作秦午的剑师也是带着自己的十来个徒弟走在队伍之中,他们此时都是换上了衙署侍从的衣物和皮盔,外表看起来和一般的护卫没什么区别。 The Qin Wu spirit stretches is very tight, he is person of the rich experience, knows this journey, because has set the time, extremely possibly to previous group of preparation full assassins. 秦午的精神绷的很紧,他是经验丰富之人,知道这次出行因为早就定下了时间,极可能会对上一群准备充分的刺客。 He also strongly suggested that before Jiang Dingyi replacement date, or finds the person to replace to go, the gauge plan that but this Political Council sets cannot change at will, therefore by the Jiang Dingyi decisive veto. 他之前还强烈建议蒋定易更换日期,或者找人代替前往,但这种都堂定下的规策并不是能随意更改的,所以被蒋定易果断否决了。 Therefore he also proposed that Jiang Dingyi looks for the substitute person, but was also not accepted. 于是他又提议蒋定易找寻替身,可同样不被采纳。 He was realizing that could hit one hardly post-war , can only completely oneself biggest completed all diligently. 他在意识到可能要打一场硬战后,也就只能尽自己的最大努力做好一切了。 He arranged each disciple in each direction key position, but oneself near the Jiang Dingyi carriages and horses, such enemy which angle, regardless of attacked, he can be able the earliest possible time to respond. 他把每个弟子都安排在了各个方向的关键位置上,而自己则在蒋定易的车马附近,这样敌人无论从哪个角度攻来,他能都能第一时间反应过来。 He looked at this time rode in immediately Zhang Yu one, puts aside the vision. 他这时看了骑在马上的张御一眼,就又移开目光。 Jiang Dingyi has told him, Zhang Yu is profound cultivator, since protects oneself, is the oneself friend, must respect to that person. 蒋定易告诉过他,张御是一位玄修,既是来保护自己的,也是自己的朋友,对其人必须尊重。 Under the Qin Wu heart also acknowledged, profound cultivator is very fierce, has the method that many average men do not have, but he was the guard to do for a lifetime , the own arrogance, thinks that this matter oneself can do obviously well. 秦午心下也承认,玄修很厉害,拥有很多常人不具备的手段,可他给人做护卫做了一辈子,也自有傲气,认为这种事情自己显然能做得更好。 Therefore he does not look for master to move discusses anything, arranges all arrangement time, when he does not exist. 所以他并不来找张御主动商量什么,安排一切布置的时候,就当他不存在。 Zhang Yu has not cared about this matter, he to deal with have the opponent of unusual strength here, as for general guarding matters concerned, is these guards and these swordsman should responsibility completely, he will not go to meddle rashly. 张御也没有在意这点事,他在这里是为了应付具备超凡力量的对手,至于一般的卫护事宜,则是那些护卫和这些剑士应尽的职责,他是不会去贸然插手的。 But deals with the method of common person he, regardless of knows that is the same, among the two people does not need anything to happen together. 而应付寻常人的手段他无论知道不知道都是一样,两个人之间并不需要有什么交集。 At the same time, in approaching the Request Hearing Square underground, a long and narrow stone builds in the channel, the teaching numerous of more than 30 balance believers are eating the dry and hard steamed bun silent, is drinking the astringent mouth water, and makes an effort to swallow, in the channel 1 : 00 full is the chewing sound of effort. 同一时刻,在临近闻祈广场的地下,一条狭长的石砌通道内,三十多名天平教徒的教众正沉默啃着干硬的馒头,喝着涩口的水,并使劲一口口咽下去,通道里一时满是用力的嘴嚼声。 Their hair are fluffy, the attire is very very tattered, what the under foot steps on is the straw sandal, from head to toe most can take obtaining instead is the weapon in hand. 他们头发蓬松,衣着很是很破烂,脚下踩的是草鞋,浑身上下最能拿得出的反而是手中的武器。 They are Balance Sect most low level, makes the assassination to have no money take, can only every day receive some dry rations and water, maintains the most basic livelihood. 他们是天平教派的最底层,做刺杀没有任何的钱拿,只能每天领到一些干粮和水,维持最基本的生活。 They are not the Auspicious Light City residents, but steps aside from wander about destitute this. 他们并不是瑞光城的居民,而是自外流落到此的。 In recent years, north Protectorate many towns were hit by the inexplicable natural disaster, many towns therefore abolish. 近些年来,都护府北方的许多镇子都是遭受了莫名的自然灾害,不少镇子因此撤消。 Although Protectorate attempting the townspeople arranges to shift to other place, but many people have not been arranged properly , in the situation that in oneself does not know the circumstances of the matter did not have the person of household register bewilderedly. 虽然都护府会把试图镇民安排转移到别的地方去,可也有不少人并没有得到妥善安排,在这其中,还有一些在自己也不知情的情况下莫名奇妙没了户籍的人。 Some people, the reclaiming wasteland people that then came out long ago spontaneously, the change of climate, making the paddies gradually desolated, they have to flee from calamity to seek the livelihood to Auspicious Light. 还有一些人,则是早年自发出来的垦荒民众,气候的变化,使得田地逐渐荒芜,他们不得不逃难到瑞光谋求生计。 After finishing eating thing, everyone starts to clean the oneself weapon, mostly in the person hand is long sword, some daggers and short axes. 在吃完东西后,所有人开始擦拭自己的武器,大多人手中是一把长剑,还有一些匕首和短斧。 „old Chen, before coming out, gave the daughter to get up the fragrance?” The man who is growing the caret-shaped eyebrow broke sadly. “老陈,出来前给女儿上过香了么？”一个长着八字眉的男人打破了沉闷。 Is called the old Chen person is over the face wind and frost, about 50 -year-old men, he use the tranquil sound saying: „Has gotten up, crossed me possibly to accompany her today.” 被叫作老陈的人是个满面风霜,五十岁左右的男子,他用平静的声音道:“上过了,过了今天我可能就去陪她了。” The caret-shaped eyebrow man collected, small sound said: „Heard, so long as offers enough sacrificial offering, God of Balance can resurrect, old Chen, you have thought makes your daughter resurrect?” 八字眉男人凑了过来,小声道:“听说只要献出足够的祭品,天平之神就能让人复活,老陈,你有想过让你女儿复活么？” movement pauses in old Chen hand, then said: „Does not think.” 老陈手中的动作一顿,然后道:“不想。” The caret-shaped eyebrow man doubts are puzzled, said: „Why?” 八字眉男人疑惑不解,道:“为什么？” old Chen sinking sound said: „Lives? Makes my daughter suffer from hunger and cold again?” He scratched the movement of sword to speed up suddenly some, „I rather did not want.” 老陈沉声道:“活过来？再让我闺女挨饿受冻么？”他擦剑的动作忽然加快了一些了,“我宁愿不要。” The man of caret-shaped eyebrow is also silent, he scolded anything , is starts to scratch the sword in hand ruthlessly. 八字眉的男人也沉默下来,他骂了一句什么,也是开始狠狠擦着手中的剑。 Nearby Dawn Harbor in some tall building, two wears the white mask person to hide in one compartmented , the correct use telescope peeps to look at the distant place. 旦港附近某一处高楼上,两个戴着白色面具人躲在某一处隔间内,正用千里镜窥望着远处。 „Arranged?” “都安排好了么？” „Relax, three groups of manpower, are the believers of god, their blood and lives, believe that made God of Balance feel sufficiently joyfully.” “放心,三批人手,都是神的信众,他们的鲜血和生命,相信足以让天平之神感到愉悦了。” To God of Balance, the follower is his lamb, he will not go to grant them on own initiative anything, usually lets out like grazing sheep, if died, the believers strength will become his part, therefore the more the better of death. 对天平之神来说,信徒就是他的羔羊,他不会去主动赐予他们什么,平日就像放羊一样放出去,若就这么死了,信众力量就会成为他的一部分,所以死的越多越好。 Looking at it like this, believes in the person as if advantage of balance not to have, instead must pay extremely numerous, as if not need to go to believe. 这样看来,信奉天平的人似乎一点好处也没有,反而要付出极多,似乎没有必要去信。 The thing that but in reality, in boundless this mortal world, the weak one can depend upon were too few, God of Balance after all is a god, this status at least lets consolation in his believers also a little mind, the courage stands the resistance. 可实际上,在茫茫尘世中,弱者所能依靠的东西实在太少了,天平之神终归是个神,这个身份至少让他的信众还有点心灵上的慰藉,还有勇气去站起来反抗。 Moreover as the god follower, other god or the god follower will usually not look for their troubles. 而且身为神灵的信徒,别的神明或者神明信徒通常也不会来找他们的麻烦。 The Library Division Yamen motorcade had gone to the terrace at this time, follow the avenue, but in the path front, a person puts on the youngster front surface of cotton garment to run, that person near, had not been blocked by these vigilant Minister of Justice, after examining status, put him to come. 司吏衙署的车队此时已是下了台地,正沿着大道而行,而在道路前方,一个人穿着布衣的年轻人迎面跑来,其人还未近前,就被那些警惕的司寇拦下,在检验过身份后,才放了他过来。 Before youngster has arrived at the Qin Wu body, wiped the perspiration on side cheeks, a microstrip several points of asthma, cups the fist and says: „master.” 年轻人一直来到秦午身前,擦了侧脸颊上的汗,微带几分气喘,抱拳道:“师父。” Qin Wu throws a water bag, has the magnetic sound to say with low and deep: „Front how?
