快到中午的时候,格拉尔才从白堡回到公馆。早上欧班召集了所有的附庸者,就和丹尼尔的谈判问题咨询众人的意见。在议室里,每个爵士几乎都提出自己的想法,但无法都是想要尽量多的侵占丹尼尔的领地,并且希望在这里面能够分得一些好处。例如在艾伦管辖内的三片领地里安插进自己的人员,甚至企图分割那位年轻爵士的领地。From beginning to end, Allenhad not proposedprotest that anyopposestime, thisgaveKnightto create an misconception. Theyare intenser, untilfinally, Allenthrows downsuperficialwords: „TerritoryisIhits, whomust. The premiseis, youcanhitinmyhand.”
自始至终,艾伦都没有提出任何一次反对的抗议,这给爵士们造成了一种错觉。他们更加变本加厉,直到最后,艾伦丢下一句轻描淡写的话:“领地是我打下来的,谁要都可以。前提是,你们能够在我手上打下来。”Hismeaningobvious, mustdividehisterritoryagain, thenfirstfought a warto sayagain.
他的意思再明显不过,要分割他的领地,那么先打一仗再说。These wordsmakeKnightclose the mouth, no oneknow, in the discussingroombesidesOban, the armies of otherperson of territoriesis worth mentioning. as a resultKnightstartsto shift the topic, pointed outdirectly the Allen'sterritoryalsobelongs toOban, thenas the follower, Allen should also obeydispatching of Oban. Theywantto bypass the Allen'sobstructionthrough the Obanpower, achieves the goal of nibbling.
这句话让爵士们闭上嘴巴,谁都知道,议室里除了欧班之外,其它人领地的军队根本不值一提。于是爵士开始转移话题,直接指出艾伦的领地也是属于欧班的,那么做为追随者,艾伦也应听从欧班的调遣。他们想通过欧班的权力绕过艾伦的阻挠,达到蚕食的目的。FinallyObansaidcalmly: „Ihad pledgedAllenKnight, inDaniel'slead(er)on the ground, hecanhitmany, thenbelongscompletelyhis. Everyonetiny person that wantsmeto maketo fail to keep one's word?”
最终欧班平静地说道:“我曾经承诺过艾伦爵士,在丹尼尔的领地上,他能够打下来多少,便全部属于他的。难道各位要我做言而无信的小人?”
Such a bighatbuckles, Knightare at wit's endfinally, but the agenda can also smoothlyenternegotiations the discussionlink. In this regard, Allenremains silent, evenGellarforDanielproposed when the delaynegotiated the suggestion of time, hehas not made noise the opposition, did not closehismatterlikeall these. Allenremains silent, Gellaris gladagain, but, immediatelyagitatesObandiligently, analyzesfromvariousaspects, finally, is forown, Obanalsoagreesto delay the day of negotiationsslightly.
这么一大顶帽子扣下来,爵士们才终于无计可施,而议程也得以顺利进入谈判事宜的讨论环节。在这方面,艾伦一直保持缄默,甚至格拉尔替丹尼尔提出延迟谈判时间的建议时,他也没有出声反对,就像这一切都不关他的事。艾伦保持沉默,格拉尔再乐意不过,当下努力鼓动欧班,从各方面进行分析,最后,出于自身的考虑,欧班也同意稍微延迟谈判的日子。Returns tomansion, Gellarto relax. timeonlyoneweek that althoughObandelays, buthas at least transferredtoDaniel. Thinks that 1 milliongold coinstalkedclose toto gain, Gellarquitehappilyhollow laughtwo.
回到公馆,格拉尔松了口气。尽管欧班延迟的时间只有一周,但至少对丹尼尔已经有所交待。想到百万金币不过动动嘴巴就赚了下来,格拉尔颇为得意地干笑两声。Dranktwotea, has the guardto run inhallto saytoGellar: „Sir, Captaintheycame back.”
才喝了两句茶水,就有护卫跑进大厅对格拉尔说道:“大人,雷古队长他们回来了。”„Came back?”Gellarfrownedsaid: „What's the matter, theyshouldbe able to come back the next evening, howto come backnow?”
“回来了?”格拉尔皱眉道:“怎么回事,他们应该在明天傍晚才回得来,怎么现在就回来了?”Waslast nightconvoyguardCaptain, hecomes backnow, means that the matterwas unusual. Gellarmakeshimcome inimmediately, guardCaptain of when distressedappearanceentershall, shamefacedlydoes not dareto look atGellar. SirViscountlooked that hison the bodyis wounded, isthisfacial expression, the immediatelyfingertremblesslightly, askedwith trepidation: „What's all this about?”
雷古是昨晚车队的护卫队长,他现在回来,意味着事情不寻常。格拉尔立刻让他进来,一身狼狈模样的护卫队长走进大厅时,羞愧地不敢去看格拉尔。子爵大人看他身上带伤,又是这种神情,当下手指微微一颤,提心吊胆地问:“这是怎么回事?”„Sir, the subordinatemanagementis ineffective. Last nightweencounteredonegroup of blocking the wayrobberson the road, twocarriagecargoswere robbed.”Captainlowered the headto say.
“大人,属下办事不力。昨晚我们在路上遭遇了一伙拦路的劫匪,有两辆马车的货物被抢走了。”队长低着头说。„Twocar(riage)s...... whichtwocar(riage)s?”Gellarhas the finalhopeto ask.
“两车……哪两车?”格拉尔抱着最后的希望问。Captainraise one's headlooked athisoneeyes, swallowedtake in and sends outto spitsaid: „Yes, is your twocar(riage)importantcargos.”队长抬头看了他一眼,吞吞吐吐地说:“就是,就是您那两车重要的货物。”Gellaronlythinks a dizziness, the just nowself-satisfiedmoodvanishes into thin air. Howeverdiffersless thanoneminute of time, the state of mind is actually the dayleavesbadly. Hesitson the chair, thattwocar(riage)properties, ifconverts the gold coin, in 800ten thousandleft and right. Thatwasheaccumulatedseveral yearspainstaking care, actuallyvanishedineveningcleanly. Gellarpulls out the spatialwood/blockheadlike a velamen, onlythinks that inheart an emptiness, is uncomfortable.格拉尔只觉一阵天旋地转,刚才得意的心情不翼而飞。不过相差不到一分钟的时间,心境却是天差地别。他一屁股坐回椅子上,那两车财物,如果折算成金币的话,当在八百多万左右。那是他积累了数年的心血,却在一个晚上消失得干干净净。格兰尔就像一根被掏空的木头,只觉心中一片空荡荡,难受得要命。A moment later, the anger of raisingfilledthisemptiness. Hejumped, firsttramplesinCaptainon the body, thenroarsaid: „How do youhandle matters? Didn't Iarrange a expert? An entire17levels of expert, spentmyinvaluablecointo hire! Hashimto assume personal command, whywill also losemything!”
片刻之后,升起的怒火填补了这份空荡。他才跳了起来,先是一脚踹在队长的身上,然后才咆哮道:“你们是怎么办事的?我不是还安排了一个高手吗?一个整整十七级的高手,花费了我一千金币雇来的!有他坐镇,为什么还会丢了我的东西!”„Sir, the opposite partystrengthwas too strong. Each of themat leasthas12levels of that level or higherstandards, thatadventurer who youhireacted, butwas defeatedbythem, the personwasgivesto carry off, life and deathenddivination.”Captainput on a long faceto say.
“大人,对方实力太强了。他们每人至少都有十二级以上的水准,您雇来的那个冒险者出手了,可还是被他们打败,人更是给带走了,生死末卜。”队长哭丧着脸说。Gellarcould not speak.格拉尔一声说不上话来。
A 17levels of expert, was defeatedalsoeven, but also was seized. The strength of opposite partystrongly, according tolike thislooks like, theywereearly morningalreadyset one's sights ononeself. associateto the beforehandmatter, Gellaralmostis certainagain, the treasury that was visitedby the bandits and thieves, will use the Raging Blood Magic Crystalguardnext dayin public places, as well aslast nightcargowas robbedtheseaccidentsactuallyto string togetherin the same place.
一个十七级的高手,被打败也就算了,还被人捉走。那对方的实力得多强劲,照这样看来,他们是一早就已经盯上了自己。再联想到之前的事,格拉尔几乎可以肯定,那被盗贼光临的金库,翌日在公众场合使用沸血魔晶的护卫,以及昨晚货物被劫走这几起事故其实是串在一起的。Thisis a thoroughseriestreacherous plan!
这是一个周密的连环毒计!„Actuallyiswhoto opposewithme? Iswho?”Gellaryelled,naturally, thisissueno onecanreplyhim.
“究竟是谁在和我作对?是谁?”格拉尔大叫起来,当然,这个问题没有人能够回答他。Over8 millionpropertysuchfor no reasondid not have, Gellaronlythought that hisheartis twitching, wantsknowheevery year the profit of legitimate channelalsoon1 milliongold coinleft and right. Nowloses8 millionall of a sudden, has not faintedat the scene, Gellarhad thought that the oneselfwillwas very strong.
超过八百万的财物就这么平白没了,格拉尔只觉得他的心脏在抽搐,要知道他每年正当渠道的盈利也就百万金币左右。现在一下子损失了八百万,没有当场晕过去,格拉尔已经觉得自己的意志十分坚强了。Hisvoiceshiversaid: „Mustinvestigate thoroughly! Investigating thoroughlyiswhodoes, damn, youshouldrejoice. Rejoiced that Ionno one, Idefinitelykillyounowon handotherwise. Nowgivesmeto check, ifcannot check, Iwill makeyoudie a tragic death, Ipledged!”
他声音颤抖地说:“一定要查清楚!查清楚到底是谁干的,该死的雷古,你应该庆幸。庆幸我现在手头上没人,要不然我肯定杀了你。现在给我去查,如果查不到,我会让你死得很惨,我发誓!”„Is, thankedyourbenevolence, Sir.”
“是是,感谢你的仁慈,大人。”GuardCaptainjust about toleaves, Gellaralsostopped by calling outhim: „Remember, cannotflamboyant, be too low-key.”
护卫队长刚要离开,格拉尔又叫住他:“记住,不能太张扬,要低调。”After all, thesethings can not obviously the light. If by some chanceletsObanknowonheon handunexpectedly8 millionprivateproperties, Countwill definitely traceitsorigin. Butthesewealth, are actually hethroughbetraying the Ark Harborsecretgain, cannotletObanknow.
毕竟,那些东西可见不得光。万一让欧班知道他手头上竟然有八百万私密的财物,伯爵肯定会追查其来源。而这些财富,却是他通过出卖方舟港的机密赚来的,一点也不能让欧班知道。ButGellaractuallynotknow, takes by forcehispreciselyObanyounger sister. Whenheflies into a rage, Ramonachanges the swordsmanclothing/taking that oneset of knightusuallywearsto arrive at the Obanstudy room, last night after stealing the Gellarproperty, returning toRamona of oneselfdwelling placeto sleepsatisfactory. Untillate in the morning, lazilyis fragrantfrom her andon the softbedcrawl up.
可格拉尔却不知道,打劫他的正是欧班的妹妹。在他暴跳如雷的时候,若拉换上一套骑士经常穿的剑士服来到欧班的书房,昨晚劫走格拉尔的财物之后,回到自己居处的若拉美美睡了一觉。直到日上三竿,才懒洋洋地从她那张又香又软的大床上爬了起来。Thentook the early morningbath, had a breakfast, to the Countstudy room.
接着洗了个晨浴,吃了点早餐,才到伯爵的书房里来。„Looks atyourappearance, should last nightmatterwork well?”Obanraise one's head, looked atoneselfyounger sisteroneto say with a smile.
“看你的样子,昨晚的事应该进行得很顺利?”欧班抬头,看了自己妹妹一眼笑道。Ramonapulls a chairto sit downcasually: „Do Iseeminglyhaveobviousthat?”若拉随便拉过一张椅子坐下:“难道我看上去有那么明显吗?”„Youlikespreadhoneyat heart, the differencehas not only laughed.”
“你就像心里涂了蜜似的,只差没哈哈大笑了。”„Inaturallyhappily, Elder Brother, yournotknowGellarthatoldbastardhidhow muchmoney. Myperson the pointhad calculatedlast night, converts the gold coinwords, has almost 8 million. If before againplus, bystoragegold voucher that Itake away, day, heis hidingnearlypropertysurelyin a Ark Harborsecrettreasury! Thatishisentiretenyears of income, naturally, Irefer to the income in regularchannel.”Ramonais grasping the fist, makes an effortto brandish: „So much money, canimagine, actuallyhebetrayedourmanysecrets!”
“我当然得高兴,哥哥,你不知道格拉尔那个老混蛋藏了多少钱。我的人昨晚点算过,折算成金币的话,差不多有八百万。如果再加上之前被我拿走的储金劵,天,他在方舟港的一个秘密金库里就藏着近千万的财物!那可是他整整十年收益,当然,我是指正规渠道方面的收益。”若拉握着拳头,用力挥舞一下:“这么多钱,可以想像,他究竟出卖了我们多少秘密!”„Gellaris a greedyfellow, butIhave not thought,hisdesire is so unexpectedly big.”Obanshakes the head: „, Howhisthing do youprepareto process?”
“格拉尔是个贪心的家伙,可我没想到,他的欲望竟然这么大。”欧班摇了摇头:“那么,他的东西你准备怎么处理?”„Ihave complied with the Allenminute/sharehe40%, other, partcantake the Deep Sea Scaled Womanmilitary expenses. Remaining, naturallyismyprivate property!”
“我答应过艾伦分他40%,其它的,一部分会作为深海鳞姬的军费。剩下的,当然是我的私人财产!”„Allen......”Obansighed: „Did youdraw inhim?”
“艾伦……”欧班叹气道:“你又拉上他了?”Ramonasaid with a nod: „Thanks tohavinghim, otherwiseIpossiblyhadsavagelast night. ThatGellar is not quite stupid, healsohiredon17levels of adventurerhide inhorse-drawn vehicles. Last nightkilledmyoneto be caught off guard, goodAllenblockedhim, andbeathim.”若拉点头说:“多亏有他,要不然我昨晚可能有危险。那个格拉尔也不太笨,他还雇了个十七级的冒险者藏在马车上。昨晚杀了我一个措手不及,还好艾伦拦下他,并且击败了他。”„Ramona, myknowyouhave the favorable impressiontoAllen. HoweveratGellarthismatter, Ithought that youshould notmakehiminfiltrateandcome.”
“若拉,我知道你对艾伦有好感。不过在格拉尔这件事上,我觉得你不应该让他渗和进来。”„Why, Elder Brother. Isn't henowyourtrusted aide?”Ramonaaskedsuddenly.
“为什么,哥哥。他现在不是您的心腹吗?”若拉眨眼问道。Work of Oban about seat of honor, stood upsaid: „Baron Allenindeedis a talent, butsimultaneously, he is also the savagecharacter. Ineedto depend onhimto copelikePeople like Daniel, buton the other hand, I must guard againsthim. Heis an ambitiousman, oncecannot obtain the furtherpower and influence and wealthin my, mightget angrywithmevery much. When the time comes, enemy who hemusteliminate!”欧班合上手中的著作,站了起来说:“艾伦男爵的确是个人才,可同时,他也是个危险的人物。我需要倚仗他来对付像丹尼尔这样的人,可另一方面,我也得防备他。他是个有野心的男人,一旦在我这得不到进一步的权势和财富,很有可能会跟我翻脸。到时候,他就是必须剪除的敌人!”
The Countlast few words saying the murderous intentionto be imposing, hear the Ramonabackcoldlyone.伯爵最后一句话说得杀机凛然,听得若拉后背一冷。„Therefore, likeGellarthiskind of matter, makeshisfewknowbewonderful. Ramonayou, youshould the controlsgoodoneselfsentiment, to likeon a potential enemy, thisdoes not have the advantagetoyoutome.”Obanlookstohisyounger sister, said solemnlysaid.
“所以,像格拉尔这类事情,还是让他少知道为妙。还有若拉你,你应该控制好自己的感情,不要喜欢上一个潜在的敌人,这对你对我都没有好处。”欧班看向其妹,沉声说道。Ramonamuttered: „Ifmakeshimlikeonme, hewon't give loyalty to the Elder Brotherforeveryou?”若拉喃喃道:“如果让他喜欢上我的话,那他不就永远都会效忠哥哥你了吗?”„Ramona, youwere too naive. Manlikehim, whatin the heartis installingis a world, howbecausewomanwill give upthe whole world?”Obansighed the sound, caresses the head of Ramonato saylightly: „Let alone, youthought that will lack the girl / young ladyperson people like him? Not, so long asheis getting more and more powerful, whathisby one's sidewomanwantsdoes not have. Ramona, do not wastetimeforhim.”
“若拉,你太天真了。像他那样的男人,心中装着的是一个世界,又怎么会因为一个女人就放弃整个世界?”欧班叹了声,轻抚着若拉的脑袋道:“何况,你觉得像他那样的人会缺少女人吗?不会的,只要他越来越强大,他身边的女人要什么样的没有。若拉,不要为他浪费时间了。”„Wastestime?”Ramonasweeps the hand of Oban, stands upsaid: „MyElder Brotherknowis thinkinganything. Doesn't want the son who ImarrymarquisHoy?”
“浪费时间?”若拉扫开欧班的手,站起来道:“我知道哥哥在想什么。不就是想把我嫁给霍依候爵的儿子?”„What does the Marquissonhave is not good? Which the statusand can't positionsamebe joined toyou? Ramona, should not be willful, all that the Elder Brothermakesforyou.”
“侯爵的儿子有什么不好?身份、地位哪一样不配得上你?若拉,不要任性,哥哥所做的一切都是为了你。”„Foryou!”Ramonacalled out: „Marriesmarquis'ssonme, youandHoyMarquiscannotdraw in the relations, thusobtainshimin the attention and incline on politicalandmilitary?”
“是为了你吧!”若拉叫道:“把我嫁给候爵之子,你和霍依侯爵不就可以拉上关系,从而得到他在政治和军事上的关注和倾斜?”Shebe angrygoes out of the study room: „In brief, Iam not a child, the Elder Brotherdo not organizemylifecasually!”
她生气地走出书房:“总之,我已经不是小孩子了,哥哥不要随便摆布我的人生!”Looks the back that shevanishes, the Obanforced smileshakes the head.
看着她消失的背影,欧班苦笑摇头。
