結束晨會後，宮落絮便會在沙華殿後殿辦公，後殿鄰近藏書樓，取閱古籍資料都頗為方便，此時她正翻閱著讓典籍司調閱過來的《魔界史記》。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WwoO3CdLx
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKw73YqfKAl
一下朝就去監察任位大典事宜的赤夜，剛結束手上的工作就朝著後殿的方向前進。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5r4NNs3vg
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0LnB7lmIF
宮落絮指尖緩緩滑過紙上的黑字，正在看奎厄領域的發展脈絡和領主變遷史時，門口的守衛就來相報，赤夜求見。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpF9Xlnf2O
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLfC5nsF8y
宮落絮讀到興頭上，隨口應了聲，赤夜便推門而入。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQfayAJX15
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lJJiGsbyc
「參見主君。」赤夜單膝跪地報拳行禮。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsccKsj7dxw
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wYjR6HVRN
「嗯，站起來說話吧！有什麼要事？」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkipJd5dJG
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGP0vh8fs1
「典樂司所操辦的典禮之事皆已近入尾聲，明日會有人送禮服過來，您試穿過後沒有要修改之處，當日就會穿那套禮服會見群臣，以及各位首領。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tlOpucREl
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzo8TlZ9as
「好，此事本君知曉了。」宮落絮繼續翻閱著手中的書籍，只是她閱讀的習慣似乎異於常人，她以指腹摩娑過紙張，好似在靠手指識字。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDptC4TSvAJ
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTv974lGWE8
「前幾日要蒐羅入城的人已經找齊了，是否要即刻召見他們？」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubiwWkd6xi
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4hYIEU7ip
「嗯……這事先放緩罷，等典禮結束後你再送他們過來。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdh0KFYpWXu
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJoeZT0JJA
「是。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGfz9zV5aL
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqDXapJkFA
「還有……」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZm0SmDm1W
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOVqYdsHac
門口守衛出聲，打斷兩人對話，「啟稟魔君大人，子司大人求見。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrIeJ8aVF8
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbjkSKvCFD
「好，讓他進來。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRygxWMP0FK
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zv4pk6h6f
子司朝宮落絮行了跪拜大禮後，便單膝跪地，向赤夜遞交一份密函。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqIKHj8eqM
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDwXw08B81
赤夜拆開封條，速閱完畢信箋內容後，怒氣騰起，「這奎厄王竟敢如此！」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALnAtoohkS
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXNAk11wzL
「奎厄王怎麼了，竟讓赤夜你如此動怒？」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vDGeHv0gt
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7qsrWCnaI
赤夜簡述信箋內容後，下了結論，「主君，當日任位大典奎厄王進獻的禮品皆可收下，唯有美人，尤其是瀅蘿美人，您萬不可收。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaCUz6y2Q4
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFU7zLBiSa
正好宮落絮已讀完奎厄的發展史脈，她直點核心，「你這樣說是因為奎厄前朝之事？」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTAA4uCwE0
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6e6zUJQw5q
「是，奎厄史上最劇烈的政權更替之變，皆因一名瀅蘿而起，奎厄王此舉，實屬大逆不道，更有安插眼線之意。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznxn9b8U5G
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSmvfOmX3R
宮落絮聞言，有不解之處，「一名瀅蘿能有多大的本事，竟能顛覆一朝之政？本君看這史書中許多事也是語焉不詳，隻字片語皆一筆帶過，都說史書由後世贏家所撰，關於這段歷史……似乎有刻意掩蓋的痕跡？」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKsbv8BuGH
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK30Fbtmidr
赤夜驚於宮落絮敏銳的觀察力，「稟告主君，此事已年代久遠，屬下不知所見所聞是否屬實，但依屬下所知，這瀅蘿原本歸附於魅族開朝首領的勢力，進獻給前朝領主後，朝夕相處下似乎起了情分，竟想叛主。後來魅族大業有成，前朝覆滅，這瀅蘿一族受累，便成了階下奴。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeOuWX6hve
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTqQPAWbzl
「古籍有載，瀅蘿初生以草木為形，性善，喜靜，遁世群居。」宮落絮點出了《族群軼聞誌》中對瀅蘿一族的註記，「這歷史明顯與瀅蘿一族天性有所出入，本君在想史實也許並非世人所看到的這般片面。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydpJGQZ9cG
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHGNtlxAMu
「屬下見主君近日似乎對瀅蘿一族之事特別上心？」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7oLy5CfTG
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopIoik9E70
「嗯。」宮落絮繼續翻閱手中的書籍，分神回答，「奴隸販賣之事猖獗，本君想先從最嚴重的瀅蘿一族下手，看倒賣之事是否有跡可循。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡek08bTLNur
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVRWk35F6Y
「奴隸買賣在魔界已是習以為常之事，不足為奇，主君若是想改正此風氣，容屬下多嘴……」赤夜頓了片刻，挑了比較委婉的說詞，「這恐非易事，請主君三思而後行。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22Q28iWTNr
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj13ouuUFXd
「赤夜你是想告訴本君這事不可行，本君做不到？」宮落絮不是笨蛋，自然知道赤夜真正想說什麼，「此事可不可行，也要做過之後才知道。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9rOGO5QBy
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2etMXubIR1
見赤夜沉默不語，宮落絮想到了前幾日查閱的陀勒羅政績紀錄。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0dxCaMjHW
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiNExJiZFA
「本君知道前任魔君似乎也在奴隸之事上頗為用心，但效力甚微。他人經驗可以借鑑，但若以此套用到每個人身上，這樣做並不公平，本君相信事在人為，無有不破之境。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJVQwd4Dgr
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFW7jBZOlj
「是屬下剛剛言辭躁進，冒犯主君了。」赤夜沒有多言，乾脆地認錯後報拳一禮，「主君身之所往，屬下定義不容辭，竭力效之。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLu60vk58Pu
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmUZYyp6t9
在奴隸改革上，兩人算是達成了某種共識，但他們都知道這是一條漫長之路，無法短期見效，光是要剔除奴隸買賣風潮，就不知道會損及多少人的利益，這件事只能從長計議。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MUPDtuSqR
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKT7UYN671
子司後續又上報一些暗中觀察的目標近況，陀勒羅邊防異動，以及境內各勢力分布情形，自從聽聞新任魔君歸位後，領地內大小勢力便暗潮湧動，新舊勢力相互鬥爭。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrL4yad7Xn
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegPJI1drnj
不過能掀起的風浪倒也不大，宮落絮便讓人盯緊他們的動向，適時搧風點火，最好讓他們鬥得你死我活，她再坐收漁翁之利。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfE7fa7szE
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6r3iQZdk2
幾輪談話下來，各事項皆已按部就班，往他們所期望的方向推動，接下來就等任位大典後，方能有下一步動作。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pRG9pfZcu
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1M4kYHFFlp
看商議之事差不多告一段落，且時辰不早，赤夜便領著子司起身告退。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8ximMdsrr
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNXxSEAOGD
也不知過了多久，殿外傳來細碎的腳步聲響，宮落絮凝神將神識往殿門口探去，瞧見來者身形，應是近身服侍自己的柳兒。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRf98bleR0
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyb6Nh2bhjZ
「主君還在裡頭嗎？已過晚膳時間，不知主君要於何處傳膳？」柳兒低聲詢問門口守衛。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlAaGYl1G3
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAwUyrTE1C
斐城有個不成文的規定，沒有官職、公職在身之人不得入軍事、議政之地，連蒐羅典籍史料的藏書樓也是禁止踏入的。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurJ39YJRyP
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHUw0YKqSe
所以現在柳兒只能站在殿外，讓守衛進來問魔君大人的旨意。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJhRAgck88
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhO4Sb7HiaV
宮落絮一個動念，殿門便無風自啟，她起身走到門口，向其中一名守衛下令，「你讓典籍司將有關奎厄稅賦、農商活動的書籍挑兩本送到羿戮殿。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZzCBxdBjx
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKHeOxTjhG
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjVjztumNh
殿外樹影鋪地，花色朦朧隨風搖曳，廊下花窗透出房內點點燈火。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIYvBJoA2o
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Lip9kRgj9
用過晚膳後，柳兒照例伺候宮落絮一日三餐的湯藥，而依依則半跪在房內，一手搭袖，一手焚香，不一會兒，奇異的薰香便縈繞房內。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWpHHKfobe
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxth8JUJr4c
宮落絮閒坐於榻上，信手翻閱懷中書冊，聲如冷玉，「今日你們不用守夜，都退下吧！」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8SfW9FmJa
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UIvsWkxXY
柳兒和依依心中明白此話何意，低眉順眼地應了聲是，便輕手輕腳退於殿外，各自回去就寢。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWRAvqQQD3
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcG0jU3Ui2
宮落絮右手輕輕拂過臉龐垂落的髮絲，輕煙從她蓮青色妝緞單衣無聲滑過。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhZF8IzhPS
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGhFIzZLvm
若此時有人推門而如入，定會被室內景色奪了心神——香霧嫋嫋，旖旎如夢。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNT6rtH2zu
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpookX7n476
空氣中幽香浮動，花光燈影下，芙蓉帳中人影閒散半臥，三尺青絲如瀑，肩上披掛的衣襟半敞，微露雪膚。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2wD3M2idG
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUP5PNJ5jeB
夜深人靜之時，一人趁月色昏暗，進羿戮殿有如入無人之境，輕鬆摸進殿內，上了宮落絮的床榻。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30RmETspeR
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLIlnSIixy
他以手撐榻，一腳屈膝半跪於她身側，露出潔白大腿。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoIW9Q22lX
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUPnJWUJZN
「大人這個時辰怎麼還沒睡？」他溫聲軟語，眼波迷離醉人。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQX1uixQER
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbh9xV0OVq
宮落絮好似早已知曉會有人夜訪，半闔的星眸含笑，亦真亦假說道：「在等你呢！」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDNcpzAgzQ
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWURwuZeRx
「騙人。」那人語氣柔軟，棲身奪走宮落絮手中的書，「大人不來看奴，奴只能自己來了。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCQ5KpGZNW
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWjoeIOO1f
沒了書可看，宮落絮只好將目光投向眼前之人。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy41QPDZR4V
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjdiFA7w1O
「本君近日公務繁忙，實在抽不開身。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpo067LMrQr
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXVm8JZq97
不知是否因薰香飄蕩的緣故，那人只覺得魔君大人淺淺盈笑的眸光，似乎卷著一層迷濛之氣，好似在看著他，又好似沒在看他。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8j9eUPzaP
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51X0KGsHqi
「奴知道。」那人愛憐地拾起宮落絮胸前的碎髮，低頭就是一吻，「奴來只是想替大人分憂，慰藉大人的辛勞。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1JX0gSuSl
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKbZGGDaNH
「喔？」宮落絮抬手，指尖像一簇火苗，滑過那人的臉龐。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVUbPtD33f
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOrGDszb2z
在摩擦之間，她落下一串滾燙灼意，指尖停在下巴處，輕輕一挑，溫熱的氣息呼在他耳畔，懶懶道：「你想怎麼做？」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQ6L3wl4df
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RucdzE0co
低聲醺啞的嗓音格外撩人，那人驀地雙頰緋紅，左手覆上宮落絮的手指，握在掌心，小臉蹭了蹭她的手，似無限眷戀的模樣。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0NaEAKpvO
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eJR7OPjan
「今日奴用手好嗎？」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwsx9dFBh0
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PezrMAyzc
宮落絮眸子微微眯起，顧盼之間水光瀲灩，泛著桃花般的春色，那人只當她不出聲就是同意的意思，便要伸出手，朝裙底探去。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0bTZlKVKN
