Iwantto be simplesincedroughtratiothis that youusuallyeats!”
阿尔西比达斯早就注意到了自己餐桌上的食物,肉汤、烤鱼、面包、小半罐葡萄酒……菜肴其实还算丰富,只是和以前在这里所接受的款待相比,确实少了不少,想起在利吉姆的那些大商人包括他自己,即使在旱灾期间仍旧不时举行宴会,食物可比这丰富得多,不禁大生感叹:“已经很好了!我想自旱灾以来你们平时吃的比这还简单吧!”„Wemusteatare much bettercompared withTheoniamostpeople! Iknow that many citizenfamilyday can only havetwomeal . Moreover the principal foodor the wheatgruel......”likedGorneysobbingare saying, officiatingasHeratemple, she people that the templeworshippedfromthese daysknewmanysituations.
“我们已经比戴奥尼亚的大多数民众要吃得好多了!我知道很多公民家庭一天只能吃两餐,而且主要食物还是麦粥……”爱葛妮丝唏嘘的说着,作为赫拉神庙的主祭,她从这段时间来神庙祭拜的民众中了解了不少的情况。AlshvangPietersis silent, actuallyheis very clear: ByDavosinTheoniatohighpositionandabundantnet worth, evenin the droughtperiod, still can definitely let the life that the whole familylivesonindulges in dissipation, but his brother-in-lawdefinitelyrequested the family memberas usualstrictly, set the exampleto the Kingdom of Theoniapeople, moreoverthiscustomandapproachalsodeepinfluencehisfamily member, perhapsonly thenlooks people like him to become a king!
阿尔西比达斯默然,其实他很清楚:以戴弗斯在戴奥尼亚的至高地位和雄厚的身家,即使在旱灾时期,也完全可以让全家人过上花天酒地的生活,但是他这个妹夫肯定又像以往一样严格的要求了家人,给戴奥尼亚王国的民众做了榜样,而且这种习惯和做法还深深的影响了他的家人,或许只有像他这样的人才能成为一个国王吧!AlshvangPietersdid intentionallyate a bigbouillon that did not care, thenpraised: „Your family'schefis good! Evenfoodare few, the thing that makes was still so delicious!”
阿尔西比达斯故作不在意的喝了一大口肉汤,然后赞道:“还是你家的厨子好啊!即使食物再少,做出来的东西仍然这么美味!”„Youcatch upfromRhegion, was very certainly tired! Sincedelicious, eats, supplements the physical strengthwell.”Cheiristoyasaidkindlysaying that thenalsosighed: „Thankblessing of Hades, thisfearfuldroughtpassedfinally!”
“你从利吉姆一路赶来,一定很劳累了!既然好吃,就多吃一点,好好补充一下体力。”克莉斯托娅关切的说了一句,然后又感叹的说道:“感谢哈迪斯的庇佑,这可怕的旱灾总算是过去了!”Shelooked atAlshvangPieters, concernedasking: „Ihear the Rhegionpeople, becausecannot afford the grain, had the riot, injuredmanyaristocrats and merchants, hadn't yourstorebeen destroyed?”
她看了看阿尔西比达斯,又关切的问道:“我听说利吉姆的民众因为买不起粮,发生了暴乱,打伤了不少的贵族和商人,你的商铺没有遭到破坏吧?”„Was luckyyour majestyprestige, theseangrypeoplewent roundmystore and workshopcompletely!”AlshvangPieters'sgratefulsaying. Thisis the truth, the Rhegionpeople in riothas truly imploredtoKingdom of Theonia, naturallycannotattackandKing DavoshasAlshvangPieters who the relations by marriagerelate.
“多亏了陛下的威望,那些愤怒的民众完全绕开了我的商铺和工坊!”阿尔西比达斯感激的说道。这确实是实话,暴乱中的利吉姆民众对戴奥尼亚王国有所祈求,自然不会去攻击与戴弗斯国王有姻亲关系的阿尔西比达斯。„YourRhegionpowwowdoeswent too far, does not attend to the life of peoplecompletely, encountersattack of people are gets what one deserves!”Lovessaying of someGorneyvitality/angry, after allthatisherhometown, listening to the proficientcountrymanto starveto suffer hardships, howshecannot worry: „Initially the bank that ifyoulet the elder sisterentersRhegion, thentherepeoplecanfrom the bank loan, be usedto purchase the graintoday!”
“你们利吉姆议事会做的太过分了,完全不顾民众的死活,遭到民众的攻击那是活该!”爱葛妮丝有些生气的说道,毕竟那是她的家乡,听到家乡人在挨饿受苦,她又怎么能不着急:“如果当初你们让姐姐的银行进驻利吉姆,那么今天那里的民众就可以从银行贷款,用来购买粮食!”Likes the Gorneywordssomewhatbeing obviously naive, the Rhegionriotis not the issue that the peopleare rich, butisgreatly the crazy behavior that the entiremerchantclassmakes the national disasterwealthcannot obtainto contain. However, initiallyRhegionbecame the Kingdom of Theoniafree city, one of conditions the Rhegionpersonproposed: Does not allow the Cheiristoyabankto enterRhegion, because the Rhegionbusinessis developed, lending money at high interestis a Rhegionmerchantimportantgetting richmethod, ifconstructed the Cheiristoyabankin the city, is far lower than the rate on loan of usuryby its, the usuryindustry of entireRhegionwill give wayquickly.
爱葛妮丝的话显然有些天真,利吉姆的暴乱不是民众有没有钱的问题,而是整个商人阶层大发国难财的疯狂行为得不到遏制。不过,当初利吉姆成为戴奥尼亚王国的自由市,利吉姆人提出的条件之一:就是不允许克莉斯托娅银行进驻利吉姆,因为利吉姆商贸发达,放高利贷是利吉姆商人一个重要的发财手段,如果在城市内建了克莉斯托娅银行,以它那远低于高利贷的贷款利率,整个利吉姆的高利贷行业很快就会垮掉。AlshvangPietersawkwardwiped the facewith the hand, suddenlysaidone: „How longperhapscould not want, the Cheiristoyabankwill enterRhegion.”
阿尔西比达斯尴尬的用手抹了抹脸,突然说了一句:“或许要不了多久,克莉斯托娅银行就会进驻利吉姆了。”
The Cheiristoyaalmond eyesopen the eyes, look the surprise, asked: „Why?”克莉斯托娅杏眼微睁,面露诧异,问道:“为什么?”AlshvangPietersknowsto make an indiscreet remark, coughed, saying of apology: „Thismatter must wait formeto seeDavosyour majesty, after obtaininghisconfirmation, cansay.”
阿尔西比达斯自知失言,干咳了一声,略带歉意的说道:“这件事还得等我见了戴弗斯陛下,得到他的确认之后,才能说出来。”Cheiristoyalooking pensive, shewine, was preparingto speak. InBourryAnthes who the one sidedinesdiscontentedshouting: „YourSirscompletelysaid the words that somewecannot understand, reallydo not have the meaning! Before uncleyou, went toEgypt, seesinNileto have had a fish, it not only can swimin the river, but can also crawlon the land, but also is fierce, not onlyeats the person, even the lioncannot be victoriousit?”克莉斯托娅若有所思,她品了一口葡萄酒,正准备说话。在一旁就餐的布里安特斯已经不满的嚷道:“你们大人尽说一些我们听不懂的话,真没意思!舅舅你之前去了埃及,有没有见过尼罗河里面有一种鱼,它不但能在河里游泳,还能够在陆地上爬,而且非常凶猛,不但吃人,连狮子也打不过它,是不是真的?”„Younger brother, that yousaidis the alligator.”Pokosinvestigates the correct pathimmediately.
“弟弟,你说的那是鳄鱼吧。”阿波克斯立刻纠正道。AlshvangPieterssaid with a smile: „Can alligatordefeat the lion, thisInot am quite clear. However the alligatortrulyeats the person, moreoveraccording to the hearsay of Egyptperson, the alligatorhas also eaten a theygreatpharaoh.”
阿尔西比达斯笑道:“鳄鱼能不能战胜狮子,这个我可不太清楚。不过鳄鱼确实吃人,而且据埃及人的传闻,鳄鱼还吃掉过他们一位伟大的法老。”Saying that Pokosis interested inimmediately: „Uncle, youtellsthisstorytous.”
阿波克斯立刻感兴趣的说道:“舅舅,你给我们讲一讲这个故事吧。”Urged bychildren, AlshvangPietersalsotoavoid the inquiry of Cheiristoya, thereforehas not declined, herecalledcarefully, said: „Youshouldknow the EgyptcenterinMemphis.”
在孩子们的催促下,阿尔西比达斯也为了避开克莉斯托娅的询问,因此没有推辞,他仔细的回想了一下,说道:“你们应该都知道埃及的中心在孟菲斯。”Severalchildrennodtogether. In the school, the teachershave taught the basic knowledge in their aspect.
几个孩子一起点头。在学校,老师都教过他们这方面的基本知识。„Do youknow that Egyptian Pharaoh is also honoured as the king of high and lowEgypt.”
“那你们知不知道埃及法老也被尊称为上下埃及之王。”Only thenPokosnods, otherchildrenshake the head.
只有阿波克斯点头,其他孩子摇头。AlshvangPietersexplainedpatiently: „ Beforefor a long time is very very long, Egypt is also not a unifiedcountry, itwas divided intoonEgyptandunder the Egypttwocountries. As a result ofnextEgyptsituated in the catchment area of Nile, because offlood routing, is the swamp, the beast of preyruns amuckat that timeeverywhere, therefore the populationare few. Onafterward the Egyptkinglaunched the war, finallyunifiedEgypt.
阿尔西比达斯耐心的解释道:“在很久很久以前,埃及还不是一个统一的国家,它被分为上埃及和下埃及两个国家。由于下埃及处于尼罗河的下游区域,在那个时候因为洪水泛滥,遍地都是沼泽,猛兽横行,所以人口较少。后来上埃及的国王发动了战争,最终统一了埃及。Alsopassed throughmanymanyyears, the Egyptpersonthroughfrom generation to generation the effort of person, graduallyturned into the fertileplain the swamp and wetland of Niledownstreamlength and breadth, pharaohnamedMenisplayed very majorrole, hestillonthisfertileplain, establishedMemphisthiscity, but alsomigratedMemphisownking...... ”
又经过了很多很多年,埃及人通过一代一代人的努力,逐渐把尼罗河下游广袤的沼泽和湿地变成了土地肥沃的平原,这其中有一位叫做美尼斯的法老发挥了很大的作用,他还在这块肥沃的平原上,建立了孟菲斯这座城市,还把自己的王都迁移到了孟菲斯……”Except forIvy, otherthreechildrenbyAlshvangPieters'snarrationattractiongradually, were heardto be very earnest.
除了艾薇娅,其他三个孩子都被阿尔西比达斯的讲述渐渐的吸引,听得很认真。

“……美尼斯是个很有作为的法老,在他的统治之下,埃及王国越来越强大繁荣。有一天,天气很热,他却带着随从去打猎,没过多久,他们就感到了口渴,于是一行人就来到了尼罗河边。美尼斯法老让手下去打水,他坐在河边歇息,结果距离他不远的河水里漂浮着一段看似是破烂树干的东西,其实是鳄鱼的伪装,它突然扑向了距离他不远的美尼斯,一口咬住了他,趁着随从们还没有来得及反应,就将他拖到了河里……

………………………………………In the evening, returning toDavos of mansionto receiveAlshvangPietersin the study room.
傍晚,回到府邸的戴弗斯在书房接见了阿尔西比达斯。„Thisyoucometime , lovedGorney and childrentoCheiristoyabroughtmanygifts, they were very happy, the childrenevenlikedseeingyou, rather than my father!”Saying that Davoscracks a joke.
“这一次你过来,又给克莉斯托娅、爱葛妮丝和孩子们带了不少礼物,他们都很高兴,孩子们甚至更喜欢见到你,而不是我这个父亲!”戴弗斯开玩笑的说道。„Your majesty, Icomewith great difficultyonetime, buyingthesegifts is also the convenientmatter, could not spendhow muchmoney, canmakethemhappy, I was also very happy.”AlshvangPieterssaidhastily.
“陛下,我好不容易来一次,买这些礼物也是顺手的事情,花不了多少钱,能让他们开心,我也很高兴。”阿尔西比达斯连忙说道。„To the children, you are a gooduncle!, LovesGorneyaboutCheiristoya, you are a goodrelative! To me......”Davossaid with a smileslightly: „Youdois very good! LikedGorneytellingme, aboutherwants the matter that went toRhegionto seeyour father, Ibasically agreed that butis notnow. Now the Rhegionturmoil, is notverysafe, does not know that whatmeasureyourpowwowdoes prepareto taketo stabilize the entiresituation?”
“对孩子们来说,你是个好舅舅!对克莉斯托娅、爱葛妮丝来说,你是个好亲戚!对我来说……”戴弗斯微微笑道:“你做的很好!爱葛妮丝都跟我说了,关于她想去利吉姆看你父亲的事,我基本上同意,不过不是现在。现在利吉姆局势混乱,不是很安全,不知道你们议事会准备采取什么措施来稳定整个局势?”Bythis time, Davoswasaskedin the subject.
到此时,戴弗斯才算问到了正题上。AlshvangPietersblushes with shame, awkwardlow voicesaid: „Powwowaboutwhethersuppresses the matterargument of rebellionto continue, has not drawn up a specificplanto come......”
阿尔西比达斯汗颜,尴尬的小声说道:“议事会关于是否镇压暴动的事争论不止,至今还没有拿出一个具体的方案来……”„Do youwantto makeussend the armyto suppress the Rhegionpeopleto the Theoniacouncilapplication?”Sneering of Davoscorners of the mouthflashesnot to have. In fact, hissituationto the Rhegionknows from A to Z, eventhisRhegioncanhave the rebellionto have the merit of hishand/subordinateintelligence service.
“难道你们是想向戴奥尼亚元老院申请让我们派军队去镇压利吉姆的民众吗?”戴夫斯嘴角的冷笑一闪而没。事实上,他对利吉姆的局势了如指掌,甚至这一次利吉姆能够发生暴动就有他手下情报部门的一份功劳。According to the stipulation of Theonialaw: CannothaveownarmyasRhegion of free city(, naturallyat this timeas a main body of city-statearmy- generalordinary citizensmostlyhave participated in riot), but the kingdomcannotinterfere in the internal affairs of itscityunder normal circumstances, thereforeRhegion , to use the armyrapidstillriot, can only hand in the applicationtoKingdom of Theonia.
按照戴奥尼亚法律的规定:作为自由市的利吉姆是不能拥有自己的军队(,当然此时作为一个城邦军队的主体-广大的普通公民大多已经参与到暴乱中),而王国在正常情况下也不能干涉其城市的内政,因此利吉姆要想用军队迅速的平定暴乱,只能向戴奥尼亚王国提出申请。AlshvangPieterssmiles bitterly, shakes the head saying: „Approachesowncompatriot the swordlancethorn, is a verycruelmatter. Not is only I, somesoberpeople in Rhegioncitydo not approvesuchapproach.”
阿尔西比达斯苦笑,摇头说道:“将剑矛刺向自己的同胞,是一件很残忍的事。不光是我,利吉姆城中的一些清醒的人都不赞成这样的做法。”„?”Davosslightlyfeelsasking of surprise: „How do youprepareto do?”
“哦?”戴弗斯略感诧异的问道:“那你们准备怎么做?”„Your majesty, believes that youhad understood, in the two years the managementunusualconfusion of Rhegionpowwowtocity-state, manypeoplestemming fromnot wantingto managecity-state, butwantsto satisfyownselfish desireusing the power, thereforetheyaftermethodelections of variousfrauds, frequentlyformulatesbenefitstheirinterest, not to favor the proposal of city-statedevelopment, many public service of cityhadtheirrelativesorhave no abilitybutto bribetheirpeopleto hold the post of......

“陛下,相信您已经非常的了解,这两年利吉姆议事会对城邦的管理非常的混乱,不少人不是出于想要将城邦管理好,而是想要利用权力满足自己的私欲,因此他们通过各种舞弊的手段当选之后,经常制定一些有利于他们利益、不利于城邦发展的提案,城市的很多公职都有他们的亲属或者没什么能力但贿赂了他们的人担任……利吉姆看似繁荣,实际上民众对此的不满已经积蓄很久了,而这一次的旱灾,不过是让民众将愤怒爆发出来了而已……”AlshvangPietersis sayingdistressed, Davosfacial expressiontranquilis listening, hisnaturallyveryclearRhegioncondition, ifin factwere notAdiliKrusefell ill, the Rhegionpolitical situationwill be better, hehas the ability and prestigeafter allcontrols the powwow, butnowthesegeneralsandcongressmen of Rhegionelectioncannotcontrol the general situation, causing the riotto happen for severaldays, the powwowcould not have taken a nicemeasureto come outunexpectedly.
阿尔西比达斯痛心的说着,戴弗斯神情平静的听着,他当然很清楚利吉姆的状况,事实上如果不是阿蒂利克鲁斯病倒,利吉姆的政局会好一些,毕竟他有能力和威望控制住议事会,而现在利吉姆当选的那些将军和议员们没有一个能够控制住大局的,导致暴乱都发生了好几天,议事会居然还拿不出一个像样的措施出来。
