Phoenix Destiny-Chapter 443 - A mess

其三,陆明舒与寇威曾有私交,是以她一到天海阁,便被寇威请去私人小岛,结果却连同行的师妹都没管,不欢而散.这是不是代表着,两人在这件事上无法达成共识?

Thirdly, Lu Mingshu and Kou Wei are close.

As soon as she reached the Heavenly Sea Pavillion, he invited her to the private island.

She ended up forgetting about her junior sister who accompanied her and left unhappily.

Does this mean that both of them could not get to an agreement regarding the Arranged Marriage between the Heavenly Sea Pavillion and Ancient Jade Summit?

天海阁一处客院里,一名装束华贵的女子迈步进入客房.跟在她身边的侍女立刻将门窗关紧,一番检查后,对其点了点头.

In one of Heavenly Sea Pavillion’s guest house, a woman in expensive clothing walked in.

The servant girl next to her immediately shut the windows and doors tightly.

After doing a double-check, she nodded to her.

这位就是薛意,游船上几位小姐口中的薛姐姐,登文薛家的继承人.

This is Xue Yi, the misses on the boats that address as Sister Xue, and the official heir of the Xue family.

薛意抬头看向第三人.此人是个中年男子,一身幕僚打扮,论修为只是尔尔,勉强进入出神的样子.但薛意对他很恭敬:”先生请坐.”

Xue Yi looked to the third person present in the room.

A middle-aged man who is dressed like an aide, and have not splendid cultivation.

He looks like he has broken through the spirit realm with luck.

“Please take a seat, sir.”

有些人的价值,不在于修为,比如这位许先生.他看着不显眼,却实实在在是薛家家主最信任的幕僚,此番特意点了他跟着薛意来天海阁.

Not all are valued by their cultivation, and this man over here is the best example.

He may look extremely ordinary, but he is the most trusted aide of the Xue Family’s master, and he specially sent to follow Xue Yi on her trip.

许先生拱了拱手,在下首坐了.

Sir Xu bowed and sat down.

“今日这事,先生怎么看?”

“What do sir thinks about the event today?”

这事指的当然是码头上的事.他们这些人来天海阁,有几个是单纯贺寿来的?任谁都看得出,古夏大变在即,岂能不来探一探形势?

Of course, by event, they meant what happened at the dock.

Who would make a trip to the Heavenly Sea Pavillion just to celebrate Sir Wen Hai’s birthday?

There is none that couldn’t tell that the situation in Ancient China is changing, and they are here to take a look.

许先生道:”目前看来,大小姐宜静不宜动.”

“Up till now, elder Miss should keep low.” Sir xu replied.

“怎么讲?”

“Why is that so?”

“且问大小姐,若您是寇威,会选择凌无瑕还是陆明舒?”

“Elder Miss, if you were Kou Wei, would you pick Ling Wuxia or Lu Mingshu?”

薛意毫不犹豫:”陆明舒.”

“Lu Mingshu.” Xue Yi replied immediately.

许先生拈须微笑:”正是.虽然凌无瑕名扬古夏,又有玉鼎峰在后,似乎比陆明舒更强一些,但,我们都知道…”

Sir Xu caressed his beard and chuckled lightly.

“Right, even Ling Wuxia has the Ancient Jade Summit as her support, is famous and stronger than Lu Mingshu…”

“陆明舒才是关键.”薛意替他说下去,”若是能与陆明舒结亲,那么天海阁的危局便会直接化解.从她手中得到新的秘法,以玉鼎峰的根底,不必再惧怕七真观,甚至能与其一拼.”

“But Lu Mingshu is the key.” Xue Yi completed his sentence.

“If Kou Wei could marry Lu Mingshu, their crisis will be resolved immediately and get her secret technique on her side.

With their ability, they could be tied with the seventh truth platform and even be better than them.

“正是.”对这位家主继承人,许先生很满意,有这么清醒的头脑,说明薛家最起码还能稳当个百年.

“Yes.” Sir Xu smiled, being extremely happy with the next heir of their family.

With such a clear-headed heir, the Xue Family would be able to continue shining for the next hundred years.

他继续道:”那凌无瑕呢?她最好的选择,当然还是与七真观重议亲事,但可能性有多少?当初这门亲事没成,皆因玉鼎峰单方面认为廉贞公子配不上凌无瑕.虽然,中州王妃不会因此记恨于凌无瑕,可是再议亲就不可能了.”

“For Ling Wuxia, the best decision for her would be setting an arranged marriage with the Seventh Truth Platform, which is almost impossible.

In the past, the Ancient Jade Summit thinks that gentleman Lianzhen is not good enough for Ling Wuxia.

Even though the Queen would not hate Ling Wuxia for this, but she would not accept the arranged marriage.”

“中州王妃爱子如命,对一个母亲来说,总想给孩子最好的东西.当初的凌无瑕就是最好的,但现在未必.其一,有陆明舒横空出世,其二,被那样嫌弃过,这是对廉贞公子的羞辱.”

“The Queen of Zhongzhou loves her child more than anything.

A mother would always give the best to her child.

Ling Wuxia has been the best choice back then, but now, maybe not.

Firstly, there’s Lu Mingshu.

Secondly, which mother would be able to tolerate the shaming of Gentleman Lianzhen?

They have once been him not good enough.” Xue Yi said.

“不错,但大小姐也要注意,还有另一种可能.”

“However, Elder Miss have forgotten a point.”

“哦?”薛意想来想去,都不觉得自己漏了什么.

“Oh?’ Xue Yi rethought her answer, but she can’t seem to find any mistake.

许先生含笑:”廉贞公子自己的心意.”

“Gentleman Lianzhne’s means.” Sir Xu smiled.

薛意皱了皱眉:”他也更中意陆明舒吧?”今天的态度,简直明摆着.

Xue Yi furrowed her eyebrows.

“He likes Lu Mingshu, no?” From today’s event, it’s obvious.

许先生摇头:”万事不可看表面.他与陆明舒同时失踪,想来也是同时得到秘法.倘若他果真心悦于她,这事倒好办了.可要是其中有什么龃龉,必然是将对方除之而后快.”

Sir Xu shook his head.

“Do not judge a book by its cover.

He and Lu Mingshu dissapered together, and it must be when they have gotten the secret technique.

If he could get her heart than everything would be easy for him.

If there are any flaws in it, getting rid of the other party is the fastest choice.”

薛意默然.

Xue Yi remained silent.

许先生补了一句:”两份秘法,当然不如一份秘法价值高.大小姐应当明白这个道理.”

Sir Xu continued.

“There’s two secret technique, but it is not as valuable as one secret technique.

I am sure Elder Miss understands why.”

薛意沉默着点头.

Xue Yi nodded.

倘若只有一份秘法,古夏将来如何,就在廉贞公子一念之间.他曾经是个废人,会不会更向往这种感觉?对有些人来说,情爱总是比不上野心的.

If there is only a copy of the secret technique, then Ancient China would be in Gentleman’s Lianzhen control.

He was once useless, so would he be more looking forward to having this kind of feeling?

To some people, ambitions would always be their top priority.

从寇威说到凌无瑕,再说到谢廉贞,最后,许先生提起陆明舒.

From Kou Wei to Ling Wuxia, than Xie Lianzhen and lastly, Lu Mingshu.

Sir Xu talked about all of them individually.

“这位陆姑娘不得了啊,半年前,血洗了九瑶宫,其下手之果决,手段之狠辣,绝非一般人能做到.”

“This Miss Lu is amazing.

Half a year ago, she washed the off Nine Jade Palace with blood.

She’s ruthless and cruel.

Unlike many others.”

薛意轻叹一点,点头称是.她从小处处优秀,总是被人拿来和凌无瑕比较,说她输上半筹.久而久之,薛意也就认了,天下这么大,有个人比她优秀,也没什么奇怪的.但陆明舒横空出世,她的感觉就复杂了.

Xue Yi sighed, nodding.

Since young Xue Yi has been an excellent girl, and like other girls, she has always been compared to Ling Wuxia, saying she’s way worse.

As time pass, Xue Yi has gotten used to it.

Ancient China is huge, and it is not surprising that there is someone in the world that is better than her.

But Lu Mingshu’s appearance made her feel uneasy.

和她们相比,陆明舒空有掌门大小姐的名号,实则自己从底层一步步爬上来,这何止难上数倍?再说突破这件事,凌无瑕老老实实在融合境熬到二十七.陆明舒呢?去年回归,她才二十二,一个二十二的出神境,古夏闻所未闻,这已经超过了天才的层次,反而令薛意难以生出嫉妒之心——也许就是因为那份秘法呢?这个陆明舒,最让人嫉妒的就是她的好运道.

In comparison to them, Lu Mingshu, who is the elder Miss only by title, she had a more difficult life.

She climbed up all the way with her ability.

Even Ling Wuxia stayed in the harmonization realm until she was twenty-seven, in order to make sure she breaks through stably.

But Lu Mingshu broke through once she returned, and the first person in ancient china to breakthrough at the age of twenty-two.

Her ability has overtaken everyone in china, and Xue Yi can’t help but feel jealous—is it because of the secret technique?

Everyone is jealous of Lu Mingshu’s luck.

“如果大小姐是她,会怎么做?”

“Elder Miss, what would you do if you were Lu Mingshu?”

这个问题,让薛意卡住了.

Xue Yi stared blankly at Sir Xu.

如果她是陆明舒…可问题是,她不是啊!她可以轻易想象出凌无瑕的心态,但想象不出陆明舒的.比如血洗九瑶宫这种事,自己就做不出.这简直就是无视了世间礼法,毫不在意名声.

If she was Lu Mingshu…But she isn’t!

She could easily figure out Ling Wuxia’s mindset, but not Lu Mingshu’s.

She would definitely not be able to slaughter half of the Nine Jade Palace.

This is absolutely inhuman and she cares about her reputation.

“不知道.”她只能老实承认.

“I have no idea.” She answered truthfully.

许先生笑了:”不知道就对了.陆明舒此人,纵观其经历,做出什么事都不奇怪.从九瑶宫开始,她一直在做出人意料的事.今日之局,如果给外人来看,不管是七真观还是天海阁,都有选择的理由,但这些理由在她面前完全不成立.是以,我们根本猜不出,她会如何应对.”

“That’s the right answer.” Sir Xu laughed.

“From what we know about Lu Mingshu, she can do anything.

She has been acting in a way that nobody would have expected ever since she’s in the Seventh Truth platform.

How we see it, is that the Seventh Truth Platform and the Heavenly Sea Pavillion could all make a choice, but that is not what she may think.

It’s not easy to guess how she’s going to deal with this.”

说完了,许先生一个个数过来:”大小姐请看,这四个人,寇威必定会倾向于陆明舒而非凌无瑕,凌无瑕只有天海阁这条路可以走;廉贞公子,正常情况下,他也会选择陆明舒,但也存在非正常的可能性.而陆明舒,则是什么可能性都有.”

After a pause, Sir Xu continues.”Elder Miss, among these four, Kou Wei would choose Lu Mingshu instead of Ling Wuxia, and Ling Wuxia could only go for the Heavenly Sea Pavillion.

Under normal circumstances, Gentleman Lianzhen would pick Lu Mingshu too, but there is a chance that he would not, and Lu Mingshu could act anyhow.”

薛意琢磨着这番话:”这么说来,竟是一局乱棋.”

Xue Yi paused and thought about what Sir Xu had said.

“So this is a confusing game of chess.”

许先生点点头:”乱局才好使力.对我们而言,哪种局面才是最好的,相信大小姐已有成算.”

Sir Xu nodded.

“Confusing makes it easy for us to work.

And I am sure Elder Miss knows well that which situation would be the best for us.”

薛意缓缓点头.

Xue Yi nodded.

许先生又提醒:”另外,您也要注意,会在其中使力的,不止我们.三大派都太大了,并不只有一种声音,天海阁内部,肯定也会有不同的选择.”

“Remember that we are not the only one who would choose to act on.

The top three sects are huge, and they would surely have different voices, similarly to the internal department of Heavenly Sea Pavillion too.”

这样的对话,不止发生在薛家的客院里.仅仅只是会个面,天海阁内已是暗潮汹涌.

This conversation is not only held in the Xue family’s courtyard.

A short meeting between Xie Lianzhen, Ling Wuxia and Lu Mingshu have already flipped the Heavenly Sea Pavillion upside down.
