The instruction office division is the lesser official petty official goes, the Divine Capital genuine money dissolver, is the spring breeze building......” “寻常人去神京,只知教坊司是好地界,实则不然。教坊司都是小官小吏才去,神京真正的销金窟,就是春风楼……” Zhou Yi saying, everyone came the spirit. 周易一说这个,所有人都来了精神。 Originally chatted in the household room and petty clerks, finally the Zhou Yi review 35 chiefs among flowers, side the three categories of yamen runners collected. 原本只是在户房与众书吏闲聊,结果周易点评了三五个花魁,旁的三班六房都凑过来。 Divine Capital has three boundary, Zhou Yi is most familiar. 神京有三个地界,周易最为熟悉不过。 Family/Home, Sky Prison, spring breeze building. 家,天牢,春风楼。 The spring breeze building fools around together for twenty years ago, Zhou Yi with period in twenty chiefs among flowers that evaluates, conduct the thorough exchange, the review have gotten up to enter remotely, rationally. 春风楼厮混二十几年前,周易与期间评选出的二十几任花魁,都进行过深入交流,点评起来偏僻入里、头头是道。 Among one group of men, does the sovereign color most to haul in the relations, from ancient to present is so! 一群男人之间,搞皇色最能拉进关系,自古至今都是如此！ Zhou Yi sighed: „Chief among flowers Su Xiaoxiao who the year before last elected, could be called for nearly ten years most superior, what a pity has not combed entered the Duke Wei view, spending money to buy up Ducal Palace becomes waited on the concubine.” 周易叹息道:“前年选的花魁苏小小,称得上近十年最上等,可惜还未梳拢就入了魏国公的眼帘,花银子买入国公府成了侍妾。” „Can travel fatigue female also enter Ducal Palace?” “风尘女子也能入了国公府？” „Duke Wei, that is great person at the most!” “魏国公,那可是顶天的大人物！” „This is assigns/life seriously!” “这当真是命好！” „......” “……” The people discuss spiritedly, front these chief among flowers fates are poor, quitting while ahead married the businessman is the concubine, after most was old, reduced for the common prostitute. 众人议论纷纷,前面那些花魁下场都不怎么好,急流勇退的嫁给了商贾为妾,大多数年老色衰之后沦落为寻常娼妓。 „You may speak incorrectly, life not best is this Su Xiaoxiao!” “你们可说错了,命最不好的就是这苏小小！” A Zhou Yi voice revolution, the enticed all will of the people are itchy, leisure tea: „ That country mister is also fears the wife, 周易话音一转,勾引的所有人心痒,慢悠悠品了口茶:“那位国公爷也是个怕媳妇的, Su Xiaoxiao entered the mansion shortly, then does not fall the well dead. ” „Oh......” 苏小小进府没多久,便不甚落井身亡了。”“唉……” „Pitifully!” “可惜可惜！” „Nearly ten years most superior, misses to see!” “近十年最上等,无缘得见！” „Day being jealous young person!” “天妒红颜！” „I said the trivial prostitute, where has this grade of good luck?” “我就说区区娼妇,哪有这等好命？” Unmanned country Duke madame of condemnation murder, even despises Su Xiaoxiao to get what one deserves so, the prostitute attempts to climb up the Ducal Palace lintel, is really from behaving badly cannot live. 无人谴责杀人的国公夫人,甚至鄙夷苏小小活该如此,娼妓妄图攀上国公府门楣,实属自作孽不可活。 Lascivious lascivious Duke Wei, because instead fears the wife, causes the people to have the favorable impression. 贪花好色的魏国公,反而因为怕老婆,引得众人生出好感。 The solemn country misters fear the wife, I also fear the wife, amn't I equal to the country mister? 堂堂国公爷都怕老婆,我也怕老婆,那我不就等于国公爷？ The worldly affairs, who is so incapable of changing. 世情如此,谁也无力改变。 Is speaking, hears sound of footsteps, the messenger leads seven prison uniform criminals to pass through the gate. 正说着话,传来一阵脚步声,差役带着七个囚服犯人进门。 Mine from the Araki ten several li (0.5 km), must search the confirmation person, little said 45 double-hour back and forth, when the weather will be dark, the messenger of management came back finally. 矿山距离荒城十数里,又要查找验证人身,来回少说四五个时辰,天色将暗之际,办事的差役终于将人回来了。 Wei exiles more than hundred, more than 20 years pass by, only have seven to barely manage to maintain a feeble existence. 魏家流放百余口,二十余年过去,只剩下七个苟延残喘。 The Zhou Yi vision has swept in the criminal surface, is asking to the facial features oldest man: „But Master Wei later generation?” 周易目光在犯人面上扫过,对着面容最老的男子问道:“可是魏大侠后人？” „Reply the benefactor, villain Wei Jun, is my father Wei Chang third.” “回禀恩公,小人魏钧,为家父魏昌第三子。” Wei Jun has listened to the messenger to say on the road, this mister was the past Wei old friends, this time Araki was spends money to save a life. 魏钧在路上已经听差役讲过,这位先生是当年魏家故旧,此番来荒城是来花银子救命。 After Zhou Yi rescues Li Hong, then traded in the Sky Prison appearance, 45 years old somewhat are slightly old. 周易救走李鸿后,便换了在天牢的面貌,四十五岁稍稍有些苍老。 Deliberately by this appearance management, exposed the past years to receive the Wei Chang benevolence, happen to can explain the internal strength origin. Others knew this matter, will not have many greatly troublesome, instead will admire Zhou Yi to be full of gratitude. 刻意以此样貌办事,暴露出当年承了魏昌恩情,正好可以解释内功来历。旁人知晓了此事,也不会有多大麻烦,反而会敬佩周易知恩图报。 Zhou Yi asked: „In the past Master Wei had the graciousness in me, today then returns, and you think carefully, was the returning to one's old home former home grounds or stays in the northern border?” 周易问道:“当年魏大侠于我有恩,今日便是回报,你且仔细想想,是回老家故地还是留在北疆？” „Benefactor, I and others has discussed on the road, then did not return to Yuzhou, stayed in the northern border to seek a livelihood.” “恩公,我等在路上已经商议过,便不回豫州了,留在北疆讨生活。” Wei Jun replied: „When dozens years, have gone back to burn incense to worship for the ancestor again.” 魏钧回答道:“待过几十年,再回去为祖先上香祭拜。” The Wei Chang case the past more than 20 years, the Yuzhou former home grounds had many Wei personal enemies, even if changed one's name, once were recognized reporting, the royal government will still dispatch the person to verify. 魏昌案才过去二十余年,豫州故地有不少魏家仇人,即使改名换姓,一旦遭人认出举报,朝廷也会遣人核验。 „Un.” “嗯。” Zhou Yi complies with one, takes out from the sleeve cuff folds the paper money: „Also wants exhausted Manger Sun, I think Araki to have many spatial dwellings, can buy one to make Wei Jia people stay.” 周易答应一声,从袖口取出叠银票:“还要劳烦孙管事,我看着荒城有不少空的宅院,能不能买一处让魏家人住下。” „Mister chatted, where the wild dwelling broken institute uses to buy, selects a transfer casually then.” “先生说笑了,荒宅破院哪用买,随便挑一处过户即可。” Manger Sun received the paper money, little said 15-16, lights up with pleasure saying: „If Wei Jia is willing to stay in the city, can arrange the buyer room manservant, usually in guards the granary, could not lack the food and drink after all.” 孙管事接过银票,少说15-16张,喜笑颜开道:“若是魏家愿意留在城中,可以都安排进户房当差,平日里就去看守粮仓,总归缺不了吃喝。” Wei Jun sees the Zhou Yi vision to look, complies to say hastily: „Many thanks benefactor, many thanks Manger Sun!” 魏钧见周易目光看过来,连忙答应道:“多谢恩公,多谢孙管事！” The Wei person is deeply grateful to Zhou Yi , after family extermination, just now knows the friendship genuine and fake. In the past Wei was big in the Yuzhou reputation, the flying rainbow swordsman made friends broadly, a result dynasty met misfortune unexpectedly no one to execute the aid. 魏家人对周易感激不尽,破家灭门之后,方才知晓交情真假。当年魏家在豫州名声不小,飞虹剑客交游广阔,结果一朝落难竟无一人施援手。 On the rivers and lakes many are the fair-weather friend, occasionally has such 1-2 heroes, then became the story-telling script story to spread widely, cannot think that was so. 江湖上多是酒肉朋友,偶尔有那么1-2豪杰,便成了话本故事广为流传,切不可认为都是如此。 „old Sun, the strong class is short of manpower, not Tathagata our is on duty, the mine patrol is free.” “老孙,壮班正缺人,不如来咱这当值,矿山巡逻才逍遥。” „Barrack is also short of manpower, the on duty city gate perquisite are many.” “兵房也缺人,值守城门油水多。” „Where has my ceremonial hall to be relaxed, every day does not need to call the roll, after all in the city a scholar does not have!” “哪有我礼房轻松,每日都不用点卯,毕竟城里连个读书人都没有！” „......” “……” The manager of the three categories of yamen runners makes noise in abundance ; first, to look at the Zhou Yi origin is uncommon ; second, to look in the face of money. 三班六房的管事纷纷出声,一是看周易来历不凡,二是看在银子的面子上。 Zhou Yi cups one hand in the other across the chest, said with a smile. 周易拱拱手,笑着说道。 „Many thanks everyone, please take care of the Wei person in the future. When Divine Capital, the spring breeze building chief among flowers did not say, other optional arrangements!” “多谢诸位,日后还请多照顾魏家人。待去了神京,春风楼花魁不好说,其他的随意安排！” Immediately laughters. 顿时一片哄笑声。
