#606: Father and female

When Calvin Duke enters emerald forest castle, Edith already in hall medium he. 当卡尔文公爵走进翡翠林城堡时,伊蒂丝已经在大厅中等着他了。 „My clever daughter--” “我的乖女儿——” „How do you come?” She be relentless breaks saying that „one month ago, I have written to you, must fully coordinate building up of First Army and prepares for the work, their requests must satisfy as far as possible.” “您怎么才来？”她毫不留情地打断道,“早在一个月之前,我就写过信给您,要全力配合第一军的集结和备战工作,他们的要求要尽可能满足。” The arm that Duke opens stops immediately in the midair, „I had informed at that time Quiet Valley Town Haier Earl, but also sends out steward inspector general this matter, this does not calculate that fully coordinates?” 公爵张开的胳膊顿时停在半空,“我当时就通知了幽谷镇的海尔伯爵,还派出管家监督此事,这都不算全力配合吗？” „Naturally,” Edith holds both hands discontentedly in the chest front, „you arrive at the town to show the northern region sincerity, moreover is important with a Church war, regards as important is not overrated.” “当然,”伊蒂丝不满地把双手抱在胸前,“您亲临镇子才更能彰显北境的诚意,而且与教会一战事关重大,怎么看重都不为过。” „But this after all is Haier Earl territory--” “但这毕竟是海尔伯爵的领地——” „Excuse me, the father, noble must not have, are you still haggling over the vassal territory? I think after Hawse and Lesta Family " rebelling " incident, you slightly will be more decisive.” “拜托,父亲,贵族都要没有了,您还在计较封臣的领地吗？我原以为经过霍斯和利斯塔家「反叛」一事后,您会稍微果断一些呢。” Calvin Duke felt that on the face somewhat could not hang, „I think that several months did not see, my daughter at least to me a hug, will express one to think of the sentiment, but has not sat down starts to discuss the official business.” 卡尔文公爵感到脸上有些挂不住了,“我以为几个月不见,我的女儿至少会给我一个拥抱,抒发一阵想念之情,而不是还未坐下就开始谈论公事。” „Yes,” Edith smiles saying that „does not know is who sends Thunder in the study room greatly, shouted loudly this scoundrel daughter, was serves the interest of outsiders and raises not the ripe wolf son simply? If I guess right, you also want to pound any thing at that time, but does not give up.” “是么,”伊蒂丝哂笑道,“不知是谁在书房大发雷霆,高喊这个混账女儿,简直是吃里扒外、养不熟的狼崽？如果我猜得没错,您当时还想砸些什么东西,但又舍不得吧。” Duke obstructs, „I......” 公爵不禁一窒,“我……” Damn, which bastard this is reveals! 见鬼,这到底是哪个混蛋泄露出去的！ Has not thought how good to respond, Edith walked, hugs him in the bosom, „welcome to Quiet Valley Town, the father. Such then it will be alright?” 还未想好该如何回应,伊蒂丝已经走了过来,将他抱在怀中,“欢迎来到幽谷镇,父亲。这样就行了吧？” In heart the indignation does not vanish into thin air immediately, he traces the daughter azure long hair, for a while has mixed emotions. 心中的不忿立刻烟消云散,他摸了摸女儿青色的长发,一时百感交集。 Is the first madame lives obviously, the disposition is widely divergent with the birth mother, even completely is different from oneself, he is not sometimes clear, how Edith grows into today's appearance. The appearance ability and wisdom talent all lacks, if when her face cannot see some wives are young appearance, he suspected that quickly Edith was own biological daughter. 明明是首任夫人所生,性格却和生母大相径庭,甚至和自己也完全不一样,有时候连他也不明白,伊蒂丝到底是怎么成长为今天的样子的。外貌才智天赋无一不缺,如果不是在她脸上还能看到一些夫人年轻时的模样,他都快怀疑伊蒂丝到底是不是自己的亲生女儿了。 However when two people support, Duke felt that closeness-- of that sharing the same roots she is still one fostered big Pearl of the Northern Lands. 不过当两人相拥时,公爵又感觉到了那种血脉相连的亲近感——她仍然是自己一手抚养大的北地珍珠。 After a while, Edith shuts out shoves open him, „a perspiration stink, you first take a bath. I have brought several scented soaps from Neverwinter City, with tries together, the cleaning effect be better than on many Chinese honey locust.” 过了一会儿,伊蒂丝才嫌弃地推开他,“一股汗臭味,您还是先去洗个澡吧。我从无冬城带来了几块香皂,拿一块去试试,清洗效果要比皂角好上许多。” „This matter can first slow one slow,” Calvin looks all around, „was right, Haier Earl? Why hasn't he greeted me in the hall?” “这种事情可以先缓一缓,”卡尔文环顾四周,“对了,海尔伯爵呢？为什么他没有在大厅里迎接我？” „I hurried back to the Earl mansion of suburb him.” “我把他赶回郊外的伯爵府去了。” „What?” Duke looks surprisedly to the daughter. “什么？”公爵惊讶地望向女儿。 „He thinks otherwise to Your Majesty's decree, where does not have to go to your order earnestly, if not I rushes promptly, perhaps he must aggravate the leading troops.” Edith shrugs saying that „is not everyone can see clearly the path of under foot, some even continually open the courage of eye not to have. Regarding this person, I will not discuss one, expels is the most convenient choice.” “他对陛下的旨意不以为然,对您的命令也没有认真到哪里去,如果不是我及时赶到,他恐怕就要惹火先头部队了。”伊蒂丝耸肩道,“不是每个人都能看清楚脚下的道路,有的甚至连睁开眼睛的勇气都没有。对于这种人,我不会多谈一句,赶走才是最便捷的选择。” „Does his meeting little darling let the castle and town?” “他会乖乖把城堡和镇子让出来？” „He not, but in my hand has First Army,” she unfolds the face to smile, „this army once had attacked and captured Kingdom Capital in one day, you thought that what can make depending on several Knight?” “他不会,但我手上有第一军,”她展颜一笑,“这支军队曾在一天内就攻克了王都,您觉得光凭十几位骑士能做什么？” Does not know is the misconception, short two months, Edith became somewhat was different from the past, her smiling face was more natural, but not desirably in the noble type smile that the social gathering installed. Moreover in her eye pupil were many a comfortable appearance, Calvin thought, this look vanished after her adulthood is very long. 不知道是不是错觉,短短两个多月的时间里,伊蒂丝变得跟以往有些不同了,她的笑容更加自然,而非刻意在交际场合装出来的贵族式微笑。而且她的眼眸中多了一丝自在的神采,卡尔文心想,这份神色在她成年后本已经消失很久了。 She likes the present life, he realized, at least compared with must come happily when Northern Lands. 她喜欢现在的生活,他意识到,至少比在北地时要来得开心。 This makes him somewhat envy, is quite sigh with emotion. 这让他有些嫉妒,又颇为感慨。 Such that just like probably the daughter said that after ripping the noble status, truly will lose some rights, but also untied that to fix on fief the shackles. 大概正如女儿说的那样,剥去贵族身份后确实会失去部分权利,但也解开了那个固定在封地上枷锁。 Now she is going to a stretch of broader domain. 如今她正在前往一片更广阔的领域。 Arrived at the castle study room, Calvin has drunk up two big cup black tea, grew the tone to ask, „we must do now, was other Your Majesty came?” 来到城堡书房,卡尔文一口喝干了两大杯红茶,长出口气才问道,“我们现在要做的,就是等陛下前来？” „Many matters must do,” Edith spreads out the memorandum, the commodity that „grain, horses, cotton material and herbal medicine, the war needs must transport to Quiet Valley Town. Right, I received the Your Majesty's new confidential letter before, the iron ingot and copper ingot must transport, the more better.” “还有许多事要做,”伊蒂丝摊开记事本,“粮食、马匹、布料、草药,战争所需的物资都要运到幽谷镇来。对了,我之前收到陛下的新密信,铁锭和铜锭也要运过来,越多越好。” „His is to evacuate entire northern region,” the Duke unstated criticism several, „you thought at heart really Your Majesty Roland can defeat Church?” “他这是想搬空整个北境啊,”公爵心里腹诽了几句,“你真的觉得罗兰陛下能击败教会？” „Perhaps he is unable to capture Holy City of Hermes, wipes out Church thoroughly, but prevents Church to enter the kingdom actually not too big difficulty under Cold Wind Ridge.” Her paused, „what Your Majesty most lacks is the time.” “他也许无法攻入赫尔梅斯圣城,彻底拔除教会,但在寒风岭下方阻止教会进入王国却没有太大难度。”她顿了顿,“陛下最缺的是时间。” „Time?” “时间？” „You have not seen his factory, therefore is hard to understand the great strength of Neverwinter City.” Edith looks to the father, „Knight, mercenary soldier and Judgement Army are the frantic followers, they have not distinguished in front of the bullet. But these might astonishing bullets, actually look like running water generally continuous output in the factory, any common people, only need teach half quarter, can use the firearm and bullet kills the enemy, if trains for one month, then can obtain one to be able the soldier who goes forth to battle to kill the enemy, but three months later, they are destroying the hardest defenses First Army.” “您没有见过他的工厂,所以难以理解无冬城的强大。”伊蒂丝望向父亲,“无论是骑士、佣兵、审判军还是狂热的信徒,他们在子弹面前没有区别。而这些威力惊人的子弹,在工厂里却像流水一般源源不断的产出,任何一个平民,只需教导半刻钟,就能使用火器和子弹杀死敌人,若是训练一个月,便能得到一名可以上阵杀敌的士兵,而三个月后,他们已是无坚不摧的第一军。” „You...... What wants to say?” “你……想说什么？” „The growth rate distant ratio bullet of person, father. It and sword armor are different, a blacksmith adds on ten apprentices, one year can build ten sets of armor, 30 swords, but after a factory day can produce more than thousand bullet-- to arm Knight that the sword grinds the powder, but can also much several hundred assign to these wants into the Knight fellow \; Has waited till the next day, these bullets can give to the city people and newborns \; One month later, the bullet that produces turns into the death city of nobody left this city sufficiently.” “人的生长速度远远比不过子弹,父亲。它和刀剑盔甲不同,一个铁匠加上十来名学徒,一年可以打造十套铠甲,30把刀剑,但一间工厂一天就可以生产千余枚子弹——将刀剑武装起来的骑士碾成粉末后,还能多出好几百枚分配给那些想要成为骑士的家伙\;等到了第二天,这些子弹就能送给城市居民和新生儿\;一个月之后,生产出来的子弹足以把这座城市变成空无一人的死城。” Calvin opened mouth, actually does not know that should say anything. 卡尔文张了张嘴,却不知道该说些什么。 „You do not believe also normally, after all these things sound really a little to subvert the common sense, but I follow First Army to participate in Operation Remove Fangs, saw how with own eyes they deal with the enemy.” Edith said slowly, „, therefore First Army, so long as defends the defense line, Your Majesty sooner or later can obtain victory-- that he wants three months later, Neverwinter City can train a several thousand people of army as well as corresponding weapon again, but this time also new insufficiently Judgement Army study grasps the sword.” “您不相信也正常,毕竟这些东西听起来实在有点颠覆常理,但我跟随第一军参与过拔牙行动,亲眼见到他们是如何对付敌人的。”伊蒂丝缓缓说道,“所以第一军只要守住防线,陛下迟早就能得到他想要的胜利——三个月后,无冬城就能再训练出一支数千人的部队以及相应的武器,而这点时间还不够新的审判军学习握剑呢。” „......” Duke becomes silent has let go to say a while, „good, when you said right. Since you so favor Your Majesty Roland, why doesn't reply my letter? I refer to...... With the matter of Your Majesty marrying.” “……”公爵哑然了好一阵子才摊手道,“好吧,就当你说得都对。既然你如此看好罗兰陛下,为何不回复我的信件？我是指……与陛下联姻之事。”
