Miranda silent was very long, the vision actually does not leave present Xinghu duke, Taiersi who as if is still familiar with this appearance. 米兰达沉默了很久,目光却不离眼前的星湖公爵,似乎还在习惯这个样子的泰尔斯。 „You said that under you do not lack the expert, even compared with me even better?” “你说你麾下不缺高手,甚至比我更胜一筹？” After several seconds, Miranda disdains saying: 几秒后,米兰达不屑道: „But as far as I know, a that two pairs of duel......” “但据我所知,那场二对一的决斗……” „That is only in the Xinghu Guards weakest two people.” “那只是星湖卫队里最弱的两人。” Taiersi breaks her firmly, to guard the opposite party to turn own ins and outs, simultaneously feels sorry for and Bastia: 泰尔斯坚决打断她,以防对方把自家老底翻出来,同时为涅希和巴斯提亚感到抱歉: „If nothing else, my bodyguard was long, person ‚terrifying sharp blade’ Lord Thomonde Ma slightly, only with single-handed can suppress them.” “别的不说,我的亲卫队长,人称‘恐怖利刃’的托蒙德・马略斯勋爵,只用单手就能压制他们俩。” ( „Achoo cat wool were getting more and more, this raises cat to limit the idea of mouse, only then idiot can think......” to inspect commodity slightly horse uncomfortable say/way.) (“阿嚏猫毛越来越多了,这养猫限鼠的主意,只有白痴才想得出来……”正在检查物资的马略斯不爽道。) In the study room, Taiersi slightly sneezes, rubbed the nose. 书房里,泰尔斯小小地打了个喷嚏,搓了搓鼻子。 „Fears, intimidated, sharp blade?” Miranda talked over this word, in the surface is spilling over the doubts. “恐,怖,利刃？”米兰达念叨着这个词儿,面上泛出疑惑。 Taiersi austere face sincere: 泰尔斯肃颜正色: „That is the nickname of horse slightly Lord, northern people, no, stars people, un, I mean, in the enemies who in his hand have suffered a loss, Exter person or the stars person, called him in the back.” “那是马略斯勋爵的外号,北地人都,不,星辰人都,嗯,我的意思是,在他手上吃过亏的敌人们,无论是埃克斯特人还是星辰人,背地里都这么叫他。” Miranda frowns. 米兰达皱起眉头。 Taiersi sneers: 泰尔斯冷笑一声: „A prompt: Do not raise with him face to face, horse Lvesi does not like this nickname, will die will not acknowledge.” “一点提示:别跟他当面提,马略斯不喜欢这外号,死都不会承认的。” Miranda is thinking deeply about anything, the expression is gradually dignified: 米兰达思索着什么,表情逐渐凝重: „The horse slightly family once was the bright star seven to wait on, alias ’ shaving cutter ‚, this I know. However, terrifying sharp blade? Said, horse slightly Lord fine does excel at the sword? Short weapons dagger?” “马略斯家族曾属璨星七侍,别名’剃刀‘,这我知晓。但是,恐怖利刃？这么说,马略斯勋爵精擅刀剑？还是短兵匕首？” Frequency that Taiersi has to speed up coughing: 泰尔斯不得不加快咳嗽的频率: „This, you will might as well ask him to compare notes another day. But I warned you beforehand, is long as bodyguard that I most trusted, the skill in Wushu of horse slightly Lord deeply concealed is immeasurably deep, even this world were most powerful the most fearful expert to he, victory and defeat still only in 55 numbers.” “这个嘛,你不妨改天找他切磋切磋。但我事先警告你,作为我最信任的亲卫队长,马略斯勋爵的武艺深藏不露更深不可测,即便此世最强大最可怕的高手对上他,胜负也只在五五之数。” „How I thought that you somewhat do exaggerate?” “我怎么觉得你有些夸大其词？” „Where, I was stressing, skill in Wushu that you are proud, here is not rare.” “哪里,我只是在强调,你引以为傲的武艺,在这里并不稀罕。” Hears this word, Miranda quiet a while, but she continues to say quickly: 听闻此言,米兰达沉寂了一会儿,但她很快继续道: „Incessantly is the skill in Wushu.” “不止是武艺。” „Considering you and gratitude and grudges discord of Duke Zhan En, Your highness, why your goes to the emerald city regardless of the goal, will impede inevitably everywhere, is not smoother than with dragon Xiao city in the kings.” “考虑到你和詹恩公爵的恩怨龃龉,殿下,你此去翡翠城无论目的为何,都势必处处掣肘,不比在王都和龙霄城顺利。” Taiersi is silent. 泰尔斯沉默不语。 Actually,...... is not very smooth with dragon Xiao city in the kings. 其实,在王都和龙霄城……也没有很顺利。 But she said right, the goal of his going emerald city, not to mention bad risk, will be inevitably thorny. 但她说得没错,他前去翡翠城的目标,且不说凶险,也势必棘手。 He needs a more efficient manpower. 他需要更得力的人手。 „However we once worked together as colleagues in dragon Xiao city, you were clear that I at cause the skill outside sword.” “而我们曾在龙霄城共事,你清楚我在使剑之外的本事。” The vision of Miranda becomes astute: 米兰达的目光变得精明起来: „Some difficult problems, give me to manage, compared with giving bosom inferior (Asia) and mute, giving the big fellow of boy or that zombie face of Doyle family/home is safer, is more efficient.” “有些难题,交给我办,会比交给怀亚和哑巴,比交给多伊尔家的小子或者那个僵尸脸的大块头更稳妥,更得力。” Cherishes and Rohlff. 怀亚和罗尔夫。 D. D and elder brother. D.D和哥洛佛。 Taiersi remembered on that day in the Hongfang street, at elegant gathering the bitter experience, frowns. 泰尔斯想起那天在红坊街,在莱雅会所的遭遇,不由皱起眉头。 „Admits me, you can obtain, my status surname.” “接纳我,你能得到的,还有我的身份姓氏。” Miranda sees Taiersi expression to move slightly , to continue to increase price: 米兰达见泰尔斯表情微动,继续加码: „Your Highness Taiersi, although expensive/noble is to the successor of high throne, but, since the royal family banquet and prince rush to the accident/surprise of palace, you touched the interests of many, places the vortex, not putting a foot right, is more increasingly estranged with Fuxing Gong.” “泰尔斯殿下,虽贵为至高王座的继承人,但自王室宴会和王子闯宫的意外之后,你触动了不少人的利益,身处漩涡,动辄得咎,更与复兴宫渐行渐远。” „By until now, but also the feudal lord of no enough weight/quantity dares to stand the statement, turns to you clearly, supports you, for your proper right endorsement.” “是以至今为止,还没有一家够分量的诸侯敢站出来表态,旗帜鲜明地投靠你,支持你,为你应有的权利背书。” Taiersi transferred the look: 泰尔斯转了转眼神: „Perhaps you do not know, my present saber is handed down in the family ancient sword of western wild duke ; Cohen's cousin, Count Deleur Koroma in wing fort escorts me to return to the kings ; But the legal heir of hero's soul fort Count, black lion family's Paul Boz Dofe outside, performs duties for my sleeping health/guard at this moment.” “也许你不知道,我现在的佩剑是西荒公爵的家传古剑;科恩的表亲,翼堡的德勒・克洛玛伯爵一路护送我回王都;而英魂堡伯爵的法定继承人,黑狮家族的保罗・博兹多夫此刻就在外面,为我宿卫执勤。” Xinghu duke does not care muddily lets go: 星湖公爵浑不在意地摊手: „However their family/home also delivered nine glow star flags of outsize to me, the excellent workmanship needed materials are full, fluttering the silver is bright, but was imposing, I liked very much.” “而他们家还送了一面特大号的九芒星旗帜给我,做工精美用料十足,飘起来银光闪闪,可威风了,我很是喜欢。” Miranda slightly thinks of the lining, soon found the memory of correspondence: 米兰达略一思衬,很快找到对应的记忆: „Paul Boz Dofe? You were said that first day did arrive at the kings, makes into the fellow of pig head with the broom?” “保罗・博兹多夫？你是说那个第一天到王都,就被人用扫帚打成猪头的家伙？” „Without pig is so serious, broke a skin wait/etc, how do you know?” “没有猪头那么严重,也就是破了个皮等等,你怎么知道的？” Miranda sneers saying: 米兰达冷笑道: „But was a pity very much, Paul's father, Count Louise is in the prime of life, non- is thrown into jail , the authority completely has not lost, has no way to leave behind a huge power vacuum behind, to let his successor turn to the rule is recent, hottest future Count.” “但很可惜,保罗的父亲,刘易斯伯爵年富力强,既非身陷囹圄,也未权威尽失,没法在身后留下一个巨大的权力真空,以让他的继承人变成离统治最近,最炙手可热的未来伯爵。” „This simplicity, turn head butchered his father is.” Taiersi being without turning a hair heart not does not jump fiercely. “这个简单,回头把他父亲宰了就是。”泰尔斯面不改色心不不那么剧烈地跳。 Miranda has not paid attention to his bad sense of humor, serious as before: „As for a sword and escorts one time, only then the fool thinks that this is the impregnable sincere alliance.” 米兰达没有理会他糟糕的幽默感,严肃如故:“至于一把剑和一次护送只有傻瓜会认为这是牢不可破的真诚联盟。” Taiersi curls the lip. 泰尔斯撇撇嘴。 Miranda vision one severe: 米兰达目光一厉: „But unlike other families, Rend situation is special, the northern boundary duke gets sucked into the prison, and is hopeless to return, under the imperial throne hovering flight, I as the weight/quantity of his daughter and first successor, especially am essential.” “但跟其他家族不一样,亚伦德形势特殊,北境公爵深陷牢狱且无望归来,大位空悬之下,我作为他独生女儿兼第一继承人的分量,就格外关键。” Her forward one step: 她向前一步: „In your camp had me, was equal to north future entire boundary, had the Rend families of heads of six big rich and powerful family, this was a phenomenally clear signal, after was you king suspected the exile, gathers the person to look at the influence, important chip that in order to staged a comeback.” “你的阵营里有了我,等同有了未来的整个北境,有了六大豪门之首的亚伦德家族,这是一个空前明显的信号,更是你被君王猜忌流放之后,重新聚集人望势力,以求东山再起的重要筹码。” Stages a comeback? 东山再起？ When said to seem like me „”. 说得好像我什么时候“起”过似的。 Taiersi is lost in thought. 泰尔斯陷入沉思。 „Only this, I surpass everyone in this castle to your value, but I have not mentioned these years, I in the prestige and qualifications that the dragon fort accumulates.” “仅此一项,我对你的价值就超过这个城堡里的所有人而我还未提及这么多年来,我在断龙要塞累积的声望和资历。” Taiersi silent a while. 泰尔斯沉默了一会儿。 „I acknowledged, you said are not groundless.” “我承认,你说得不无道理。” Xinghu duke brings back the corners of the mouth, shakes the head: 星湖公爵勾起嘴角,摇了摇头: „But has a big slight defect, for example, you have not been possible to inherit your father.” “但却有不小的瑕疵,比如,你还不一定能继承你父亲呢。” Miranda complexion one tight. 米兰达面色一紧。 Taiersi spills over the smile. 泰尔斯泛出笑容。 „Is before very long, having the little radish ghost woman is also this: We reached an agreement, she helps me mount the throne, I help her recapture the authority.” “很久以前,有个小萝老妖婆也是这样的:我们说好了,她助我登上王座,我则助她夺回权位。” Taiersi is speaking, reveals look that fondly remembers. 泰尔斯说着话,露出怀念的神色。 „But the cooperation broke down she to betray me.” “但合作破裂了她背叛了我。” The Miranda vision moves. 米兰达目光一动。 „For many years I have hated her to break a promise to break a promise, but after until with old black with the teacher discussed that I understand: That cooperation, is doomed to be defeated.” “多年来我一直怨恨她背信毁约,但直到跟老乌跟老师讨论过后,我才明白过来:那次合作,是注定要失败的。” Miranda feels Taiersi words cold intent, one cold. 米兰达感受到泰尔斯话中的冷意,不由一凛。 Taiersi sneers, both hands supports the desk: 泰尔斯冷笑一声,双手撑住书桌: „You looked, I must first to mount the throne, has the strength to help her recapture the authority, but she actually must first recapture the authority, has the ample force to help me mount the throne.” “你看,我得要先登上王座,才有实力助她夺回权位,而她却要先夺回权位,方有余力助我登上王座。” Prince vision one cold: 王子目光一冷: „This goes, isn't two makes the bounced check of guarantee mutually?” “这一来一去,可不就是两张互作担保的空头支票嘛？” „End looked where first cannot repress, the credit first goes bankrupt.” “端看哪边先按捺不住,信用先破产而已。” Miranda whole body one tight. 米兰达浑身一紧。 That flash, the vision of prince , if there is point, making the Pegasus music movement of her within the body start to revolve. 那一瞬间,王子的目光如有锋芒,让她体内的天马乐章开始运转。 „Skill in Wushu, the mind, is your illusory so-called position, I same do not lack.” “武艺,头脑,还是你虚无缥缈的所谓身份地位,我一样不缺。” Taiersi exhales the one breath, narrows the eye: 泰尔斯呼出一口气,眯起眼睛: „If must convince me to admit you, you must have a weight/quantity heavier chip.” “如果要说服我接纳你,那你可得有分量更重的筹码。” Miranda has not spoken. 米兰达没有说话。 First a negotiations crosscut saw, making her frown. 一来一回的谈判拉锯,让她皱起眉头。 „Without......” “而如果没有……” That gives up. 那就放弃吧。 Gives up. 放弃吧。 Taiersi is staring at her stubbornly, supports the hand on desktop actually closely to make a fist. 泰尔斯死死盯着她,撑在桌面上的手却紧紧握拳。 Miranda. 米兰达。 Excuse me! 拜托！ „The Xinghu fort does not raise the idler or you wants the offering to volunteer pillow mat, gives me to warm the bed?” Taiersi tone frivolous empty boasting, satirized and disdains completely. “星湖堡不养闲人或者你愿意自荐枕席,来给我暖床？”泰尔斯的口吻轻佻浮夸,满是讽刺与不屑。 Miranda did not say a word, actually pinched tightly the fist. 米兰达一言不发,却捏紧了拳头。 Excuse me, far away from me. 拜托,远离我。 Taiersi looks at her silently, in the surface sneers as before. 泰尔斯默默地看着她,面上依旧是冷笑。 Far away from the Xinghu fort. 远离星湖堡。 Far away from this mire, this vortex, this trap. 远离这个泥潭,这个漩涡,这个陷阱。 At least, avoids the eye of wind in the future storm, preserves itself. 至少,在将来的风暴里避开风眼,保全自身。 Avoids degenerating into „treaty of alliance” sacrificial victim. 避免沦为“盟约”的牺牲品。 Excuse me. 拜托。 The dark cloud obstructs the top, in the study room the ray is very dark. 乌云遮顶,书房里光线很暗。 In Taiersi full arrange/cloth urged under the vision that and pressed for an answer, the female swordsman vision moved slightly, seems pondering anything. 在泰尔斯满布催促和逼问的目光下,女剑士目光微动,似乎在思考着什么。 After the moment, she raised the head, in the foreheads seems the resolution. 片刻后,她抬起头,眉宇间似有决断。 „Northern boundary.” “北境。” Miranda firm said/tunnel: 米兰达坚定地道: „If you help me return to the cold fort to mount the position of duke justifiablily, the kid, I pledged, I will bring the northern boundary for you.” “如果你助我名正言顺地回到寒堡登上公爵之位,小屁孩儿,我承诺,我将为你带来北境。” Northern boundary? 北境？ Haggles over the name issue of opposite party without enough time, Taiersi first stares, immediately loses one's voice to smile: 来不及计较对方的称呼问题,泰尔斯先是一愣,随即失声而笑: „What are you saying? The northern boundary itself/Ben is the territory of kingdom.” “你在说什么？北境本就是王国的领土。” But Miranda shakes the head firmly. 但米兰达坚决地摇了摇头。 „You are not clear.” “你不明白。” The female eagle of Rend family/home is sharp-eyed. 亚伦德家的雌鹰目光锐利。 „I pledged, I will bring back to a different northern boundary to you am not in the geography, is not in the tradition, is not the present, before is not .” “我承诺,我将给你带回一个不一样的北境不是地理上的,也不是传统上的,不是现在的,更不是以前的。” „But is that future, your father plans the northern boundary of many years of long-awaited kingdom.” “而是那个未来的,你父亲谋算多年梦寐以求的王国的北境。” Taiersi vision moves, he takes back the arm to be straight subconsciously the body. 泰尔斯目光一动,他下意识地收回手臂直起身子。 What? 什么？ Sees only Miranda forward one step, categorical: 只见米兰达向前一步,斩钉截铁: „I pledged, it no longer is the northern exceptional case of dissociation beyond kingdom system, from inheritance to the legal principle theory of law, from the land to the population, from the culture to the system, from the finance to the management, from the farming and animal husbandry to the defense, from the conscription to the tariff, from the human affairs to the logistics, from the big needle forest to sorrowful and uneasy, from cold and dreary sacred hall to not having Winter Palace, from the birch tree forest to the dragon fort, Fuxing Gong will have at one's command the dominant northern boundary, keeps promises like it rules the central lead(er).” “我承诺,它将不再是游离在王国体系之外的北方特例,从继承到法理,从土地到人口,从文化到制度,从财政到管理,从农牧到防务,从征兵到关税,从人事到后勤,从大针林到凄惶地,从凄寒圣堂到无冬宫,从桦树林到断龙要塞,复兴宫将如臂使指般统治北境,就像它说一不二地统治中央领。” Having at one's command...... 如臂使指…… Keeping promises...... 说一不二…… Taiersi look thoroughly changed. 泰尔斯的眼神彻底变了。 The prince looks at Miranda unbelievable: 王子难以置信地看着米兰达: „Madame, did you, what say?” “女士,你在,说些什么？” Miranda cold snort/hum, is without hesitation: 米兰达冷哼一声,毫不迟疑: „Right, without the backward tradition, does not have the annoying custom, does not have the conservative family, does not have the irritating feudal lord, does not have the embarrassed compromise, the northern boundary kingdom best manpower resources and bridgehead like your father will expect, completely, will integrate the system and rule of stars kingdom thoroughly.” “没错,没有落后的传统,没有烦人的习俗,没有守旧的家族,没有恼人的领主,没有难堪的妥协,北境王国最好的兵源地和桥头堡将像你父亲所期望的那样,完完全全,彻彻底底地融入星辰王国的制度和统治。” Miranda closes tightly the tooth: 米兰达咬紧牙齿: „Under royal power, does not have the residual sound again.” “王权之下,再无余音。” Complete...... 完完全全…… Integrates thoroughly...... 彻底融入…… Taiersi could not sit still again, he jumps down the desk, even cannot attend to maintaining the beforehand that utility callous appearance. 泰尔斯再也坐不住了,他跳下书桌,甚至顾不得维持之前那个功利冷酷的样子。 „I clarify, you said that after you become the duke, must give away , is not only north the boundary, is the power in your hand......” “我澄清一下,你说,你成为公爵后,要让出的不仅是北境,更是你手中的权力……” Taiersi swallows the throat difficultly, pursues asks: 泰尔斯艰难地咽了咽喉咙,追问道: „Even if that means, the northern boundary no longer was the past territory, the feudal lord no longer had once rule, but Duke, still no longer had the past position?” “即便那意味着,北境将不再是以往的领地,领主不再有曾经的统治,而公爵,也不再有昔日的地位？” What's wrong, how can...... 怎么,怎么会…… Miranda looks at him silently. 米兰达默默地看着他。 After several seconds, she bends the corners of the mouth, shows a self-confident actually callous smile, the head to the previous swayed, seems provoking: 几秒后,她弯起嘴角,露出一个自信却冷酷的笑容,头颅向上一摆,仿佛是在挑衅: Yes, kid. 是的,小屁孩儿。 How place? 怎么地？ Taiersi expression is still astonished: „I, I am not clear, why, why you want......” 泰尔斯的表情依旧惊愕:“我,我不明白,为什么,为什么你要……” „You also said that the bounced check has to might as well not have.” “您也说了,空头支票有不如无。” Miranda exhales the one breath, the chuckle opens the mouth. 米兰达呼出一口气,轻笑开口。 „Wants my one day is also not north the boundary duke, power that in particular, the female duke, that this title represented big or small, or far or near, did not have the significance to me.” “只要我一日还不是北境公爵,确切地说,女公爵,那这个头衔所代表的权力或大或小,或远或近,都对我毫无意义。” Miranda smile one cold: 米兰达笑容一冷: „Such being the case, I can only put out a weight/quantity heavier chip.” “既然如此,我只能拿出分量更重的筹码。” „When for example ‚Xian’ borrows money the future tax revenue of pledging, or will transmit from Kang Masi, recently very popular that view: Option.” “比如‘贤君’借债时承诺的未来税收,或者从康玛斯传来的,最近很流行的那个说法:期权。” The female swordsmen of Rend family/home lift the head, the imposing manner compel the person: 亚伦德家的女剑士抬起头颅,气势迫人: „How saying that Your highness, agrees is also good, will Koroma and Boz Dofe, they be willing to give you such chip in the future?” “怎么说,殿下,法肯豪兹也好,克洛玛和博兹多夫也罢,他们舍得给你这样的筹码未来吗？” Taiersi doom blinks. 泰尔斯死命眨了眨眼睛。 „What if you said is real, if you really must in the future......” “如果你说的是真的,如果你真要在未来……” Taiersi is unbelievable: 泰尔斯难以置信: „That is you, no, is Rend family to to seal/confer official, to historical legally constituted authority, to the northern boundary dignity, even to oneself unprecedented” “那将是你,不,是亚伦德家族对旗下封臣,对历史法统,对北境尊严,甚至对自身前所未有的” „Betrayal?” “背叛？” Miranda dug the ear, does not care at all: 米兰达挖了挖耳朵,毫不在意: „What's wrong, has my father's treason is so serious?” “怎么,有我父亲的叛国罪那么严重吗？” Taiersi is dumbfounded immediately. 泰尔斯顿时哑口无言。 But that flash, he thinks oneself once in front of the king has spoken the words. 但那一瞬间,他想到了自己曾在国王面前说过的话。 【If makes one know me is the planted agent of king, I will be regarded as the rebel of aristocrat camp by a lot of feudal officials, the multitude of people finger/refer, ten thousand people spurn.】 【若让人知晓我是国王的内应,那我会被千百封臣视作贵族阵营的叛徒,千夫所指,万人唾弃。】 Taiersi looks at Miranda at this moment. 泰尔斯怔怔地看着此刻的米兰达。 As if sees another. 仿佛看见另一个自己。 However...... 但是…… Why, why she can such free and easy uninhibited, does not care at all? 为什么,为什么她能这么洒脱不羁,这么毫不在意？ This obviously is...... 这明明是…… But he thought of anything immediately, the complexion sinks. 但他随即想到了什么,面色一沉。 „No, this is still the bounced check, is you becomes the matter that the duke can achieve,” he forces himself to shake the head the rejection, „what depends is the commitment of your verbal statements are no guarantee” “不,这依然是空头支票,是你成为公爵才能做到的事情,”他强迫自己摇头拒绝,“靠的是你空口无凭的承诺” „Actually without others dares to give, even if only orally.” “却没有其他人敢给,哪怕只是口头上。” Miranda breaks him undeniably: 米兰达不容置疑地打断他: „However the matter that after this is not I become duke, can realize, in fact, your father has started to do.” “而这可不是我成为公爵后才能实现的事情,事实上,你父亲已经开始做了。” Taiersi closely is staring at her, discovered oneself are unable to understand the idea of present person. 泰尔斯紧紧地盯着她,发现自己无法明白眼前之人的想法。 „Therefore, you do dare to meet?” “所以,你敢接吗？” Both eyes of Miranda like two long swords, sew him are hard to move: 米兰达的双目如同两把长剑,将他钉得难以动弹: „Or Taiersi bright star, do you meet qualified?” “或者说,泰尔斯・璨星,你够格接吗？” Taiersi breathes accelerates, he has to transfer the crime of prison river to help itself calmly. 泰尔斯呼吸加速,他不得不调动狱河之罪来帮助自己冷静。 As the strength of end surges, the hell sense finds out by secret inquiry the strength of opposite party within the body for him clearly: Pegasus music movement flowing is restless, wanders about boundless, does not have the flaw. 而随着终结之力涌起,地狱感官为他更清晰地探知到对方体内的力量:天马乐章流动不息,徜徉无际,毫无破绽。 „But why?” “但是为什么？” „I am not clear,” the Taiersi subconscious opens the mouth, after „I return to homeland, from agrees to Boz Dofe, many people once came under me, shows good will to me.” “我不明白,”泰尔斯下意识开口,“我回国之后,从法肯豪兹到博兹多夫,不少的人都曾来我旗下,向我示好。” „But I know, they come , because they are not willing to give up once life style, is not willing to let loose was used to it the power, is not willing to lower the head under my father's iron hand, but you, you, you actually......” “但我知道,他们之所以前来,是因为他们不愿放弃曾经的生活方式,不愿放开习惯了的权力,不愿在我父亲的铁腕下低头,但是你,你,你却……” „I am not they.” “我不是他们。” Miranda replied his question in a soft voice. 米兰达轻声回答他的质疑。 „Yingxiang that Rend world passes on, once was priceless empire ancient sword, but it broke repeatedly, several recasts, the old look, has no longer lost the old name.” “亚伦德世传的‘鹰翔’,曾是无价的帝国古剑,但它多次断折,几番重铸,早已不复旧观,更失落旧名。” She looks to oneself saber: 她看向自己的佩剑: „Just like the history is going forward, the time is developing, always some people must die of old age.” “正如历史在前进,时代在发展,总有人要老去。” Taiersi is staring at that seven years ago experiences dragon blood the long sword with him together. 泰尔斯盯着那柄七年前与他一同经历龙血的长剑。 But the female swordsman stands in his front, chilly like the past , the burning hot is incomparable: 而女剑士站在他的面前,清冷如昔,也炙热无匹: „But always some people are just also young.” “但也总有人正年轻。” „Just like Yingxiang after recast, the construction is newer, the sword blade benefits.” “正如重铸后的鹰翔,形制愈新,剑刃更利。” Among two people silent a while. 两人之间沉默了一会儿。 Taiersi exhales the one breath, adjusts own train of thought diligently. 泰尔斯呼出一口气,努力调整自己的思绪。 „But I am unable to believe as before, woman who is surnamed Rend, your really such high character and integrity?” “但我依旧无法相信,姓亚伦德的女士,你就真的这么高风亮节？” „Pays such big price, really what does not want, only for the title of that impressive on the outside but lacking substance? For that named feudal lord does not have the real power, protects the duke with a wealthy man not different northern boundary?” “付出这么大的代价,真就啥也不要,只为了那个虚有其表的头衔？为了那个名为领主却无实权,与一介富家翁无异的北境守护公爵？” „Is the female duke.” Miranda investigates the correct path. “是女公爵。”米兰达纠正道。 Taiersi sighed, nodded assent: 泰尔斯叹了口气,点头同意: „Female duke.” “女公爵。” He pursues asks: 他追问道: „But if you succeeded, actually became nominal, including reclaims to collect taxes on own land must look at my complexion female duke, what significance does that have?” “但如果你成功了,却成了一个有名无实,连在自家土地上开垦收税都要看我脸色的女公爵,那还有什么意义？” She is the person of Rend family/home, not? 她是亚伦德家的人,不是么？ They are ‚chilly eagle’ Nowland Nour's descendant, is in the stars kingdom is oldest, is the most conservative family. 他们是‘凄鹰’诺兰努尔的后代,是星辰王国里历史最悠久,也是最守旧的家族。 The sound in Taiersi heart is also closely examining: Therefore, how possibly? 泰尔斯心底里的声音同样在追问:所以,怎么可能？ She possibly gives up these , since the empire era inherits, for generations, since birth some powers? 她怎么可能放弃那些自帝国时代就传承至今,祖祖辈辈,生来就有的权力？ Does she possibly exceed this time all enfeoffed nobles and seals the feudal official biggest limit and weakness? 她怎么可能超越这个时代所有封君和封臣最大的限制和弱点？ Only if. 除非。 Only if...... 除非…… Miranda silent for a long time, smiled suddenly. 米兰达沉默了许久,突然笑了。 Before she arrives at the window gradually, is looking at broad Xinghu under dark cloud hidden in the shade. 她缓步走到窗前,望着乌云阴翳下的广阔星湖。 „Told me, Your highness, you may once one inscribe such feeling: Starting from that moment, all in your life, as if stagnated.” “告诉我,殿下,你可曾有一刻有过这样的感受:从那一刻开始,你的人生中的一切,似乎都停滞下来了。” Taiersi trembles slightly. 泰尔斯微微一颤。 Only listens to the female swordsman to say spookily: 只听女剑士幽幽道: „Sees to feel established, the actions all are the fate, regardless of you make anything, regardless of you diligently, cannot break the present limit, cannot bring the new thing, cannot see the new outlet.” “所见所感都已既定,所作所为皆乃命数,无论你做什么,无论你多努力,都突破不了眼前的限制,带不来新的东西,看不到新的出路。” Miranda looks lost to out of the window, looks to the sky and jet black bottomless Xinghu that the dark cloud blocks out the sun. 米兰达出神地望向窗外,望向乌云蔽日的天空和漆黑无底的星湖。 „As for the seemingly good life, actually looks to obtain the end, is only left over irrevocably day after day self- redundant, is waiting for the final end.” “至于看似不错的生活,其实一眼就望得到尽头,只剩下日复一日一成不变的自我重复,等待着最后的终结。” Cannot bring the new thing, cannot see the new outlet...... 带不来新的东西,看不到新的出路…… Taiersi has not spoken. 泰尔斯没有说话。 That instance, he as if returned to dragon Xiao city, at present killed by poison Alekos and head of Noon king. 那个瞬间,他似乎回到了龙霄城,眼前是被毒死的阿莱克斯和努恩王的头颅。
