The thick fallingheavy snowtraded a colorto the world.
纷纷扬扬的大雪给天地换了一个颜色。Inthiswhirling snow, about 300peopleteamsare turning toward the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gate the directionto go forward.
在这漫天大雪中,一支三百人左右的队伍正向着银月城的方向前进着。
The knighthand that eightwear the redarmoris holding up„networldredflame”flag, rides the linein the mostfront row of team.
八位身穿红色铠甲的骑士手擎着“净世绯焰”旗,骑行在队伍的最前列。
The halfelfcivilians in roadsideseethisflag, frightenshastilykneelssalutes.
路边的半精灵平民们看到这面旗帜,吓得连忙跪地行礼。Because, the networldredflame, is the badge of brillianceempireimperial family.
因为,净世绯焰,正是光辉帝国皇室的徽章。In a teamcentralluxuriouscarriage, a 13 or 14-year-oldboyis looking an information that the aidejustdelivered, on the faceshows the surprisedlook.
队伍中央的一辆豪华马车中,一位十三四岁的男孩正看着侍从刚刚送进来的一份情报,脸上露出惊奇的神色。
It is not difficultto guess correctlyfromhisclothing the badge of styleandchest, the bigimperial princes in thisyoungboyempire- HarrisonYour HighnessSt. Lawrence.
从他的服装样式和胸口的徽章不难猜出,这位年幼的男孩正是帝国的大皇子-哈里森・圣洛伦佐殿下。„Mother, the Pegasusregiment of easternboundarywas annihilatedunder the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gateunexpectedly......”
“母亲,东境的天马军团竟然在银月城下全军覆没了……”Empress Midellaat this time a facelazyslanting by softcollapsing, the bodytop head the thickfox fur coat, after hearingson'squestion, the eyehas not opened, the tonesaidlightly:弥黛拉皇后此时正一脸慵懒地斜靠在软塌上,身上盖着厚厚的狐裘,听到儿子的问话后,眼睛都没睁开,语气淡淡地说道:„The easternboundaryso manyyearshave not gone to war, the armycould not have withstood, loses tohalfelfunexpectedly.”
“东境这么多年没打仗,军队已经这么不堪了吗,竟然输给半精灵。”„Rides the armyblack.”
“还有黑骑军。”„Rides the armyblack?”
“黑骑军?”„Yes, should the remnantarmy that escapesfrom the shadowcanyon, according to the information, there are8000troops.”
“是的,应该是从暗影峡谷中逃出来的残军,据情报上说,有八千人马。”Empress Midellathenopens the eyes, shows the curiouslook.弥黛拉皇后这才睁开双眼,露出好奇的神色。Harrisonimperial princehanded over the informationhastily, in the mouthhas doubts saying: „Mother, whythisrides the armyremnantarmynot to return to the northernboundaryblack, insteadwent to the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gate?”
哈里森皇子连忙将情报递了过去,口中疑惑道:“母亲,为什么这支黑骑军残军没有逃回北境,反而去了银月城?”„Becausetheirdutiesareto protectVera, butVeraalsoinsilversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gate.”Empress Midellaspoke thoughtlesslyto give a reason, buthereyeis actually staring in the information the name of ViscountAngelie.
“因为他们的任务是保护薇拉,而薇拉还在银月城中。”弥黛拉皇后随口给出了一个理由,但她的眼睛却盯着情报上安格列子爵的名字。Does not know that rememberedanything, on the empresselegantfaceappearedto wipe the strangesmilesuddenly.
不知想起了什么,皇后俏脸上忽然浮现出了一抹奇异的笑容。Harrisonimperial princeas ifletter/believedthisreason, hesitantmoment, heopens the mouthto ask: „Mother, DukeSt. HildeandDukeSt. Plossi, halfelfroyal family, should theybefather'sto seal/conferofficial?”
哈里森皇子似乎信了这个理由,犹豫了片刻,他又开口问道:“母亲,圣希尔德公爵、圣普洛斯公爵,还有半精灵王室,他们应该都是父亲的封臣吧?”„Yes.”
“是的。”„That...... should weprevent their each otherbattle?”
“那……我们是不是应该阻止他们这样彼此争斗?”Empress Midellahearsword, is on the riseto look straight aheadson'seyes, askedwith a smile: „Youhope that St. Lawrence Familyto seal/conferofficialeach otherharmonious, friendlyis together?”弥黛拉皇后闻言,抬头直视自己儿子的眼睛,笑着问道:“你希望圣洛伦佐家族的封臣都彼此和睦,友好相处?”„Shouldn't?”InHarrisonimperial princeeyesfullis the doubts.
“难道不应该吗?”哈里森皇子的眼中满是疑惑。„Harrison, youthought that by the St. Lawrence Familystrength, canbe victorious the northernboundary?”
“哈里森,你觉得以圣洛伦佐家族的实力,能打得过北境吗?”„Should.”
“应该可以吧。”„Norththat does the boundaryadd on the easternboundaryagain?”
“那北境再加上东境呢?”„......”Harrisonimperial princehesitated, for a whiledoes not dareto assert.
“……”哈里森皇子犹豫了,一时没敢断言。„Againin additionwesternboundary, evensouthboundary?” The Empress Midellavisionis cold, „toldme, iffourboundarydukesjoined up, howSt. Lawrence Familyshoulddeal?”
“再加上西境,甚至南境呢?”弥黛拉皇后目光冷然,“告诉我,如果四境公爵联合起来,圣洛伦佐家族该怎么应对?”Harrisonimperial princecold sweatbravessuddenly, did not speakslow.
哈里森皇子忽然冷汗直冒,呐呐不语。However, Empress Midellaas iflikeeasilydoes not let offownson, has been staring athiseye, is waiting forhisreply.
然而,弥黛拉皇后似乎并不像轻易放过自己的儿子,就这么一直盯着他的眼睛,等待着他的回答。Long time, Harrisonimperial princerepliedcautiously: „Mother, aren't you blood younger sister of DukeSt. Hilde? Mywithin the bodyalsohas the St. Hildefamily'sblood, should the northernboundarynot revolt against the imperial family?”
半晌,哈里森皇子才小心翼翼地答道:“母亲,您不是圣希尔德公爵的亲妹妹吗?我体内也有圣希尔德家族的血液,北境应该不会反抗皇室吧?”
„ Hehe, amongempire'sSaintknightfamilieseach otheris related through marriagealsofew? Ifmarriescansolveallpolitical issues, inthatthisworldwill not have the war.
“呵呵,帝国的圣骑士家族之间彼此通婚的还少吗?如果联姻就能解决所有政治问题,那这个世界上就不会有战争了。
A wisefeudal lordwhen the decisionfamilystandpoint, will only consider the interests, rather thanmarriedseveralwomen. ”
一个英明的领主在决定家族立场的时候,只会考虑利益,而不是嫁了几个女人。”Harrisonimperial princeopens mouth, is somewhat scared.
哈里森皇子张了张嘴,有些傻眼。Hewantsto askownmother, ifnorthoneday the boundaryreallystoodwith the imperial familyin the opposite, whichshewill helpone side?
他很想问问自己母亲,如果有一天北境真的跟皇室站在了对立面,那她会帮哪一边?Buthesitantmoment, hedoes not have the gutsto asksuchquestion.
但犹豫了片刻,他还是没有胆量问出这样的问题。Thinks,Harrisonimperial princealsosaid: „Thatdoes not have【Sacredtreaty of alliance】? Fourboundarydukesdareto tear up the agreement, abandons the promise, challenges the St. Lawrence Familyposition?”
想了想,哈里森皇子又道:“那不是还有【神圣盟约】的吗?难道四境公爵敢撕毁协议,背弃诺言,挑战圣洛伦佐家族的地位?”Empress Midellasneers: „Harrison, youremembers, onalloralcommitments and papers the agreementcanbetraymomentarily, wantsto guarantee that to seal/conferofficial the loyalty, by, can only beownstrength.”弥黛拉皇后冷笑一声:“哈里森,你记住,所有的口头承诺和纸上协议都是随时可以背叛的,想要确保封臣的忠诚,靠的,只能是自身的实力。”Harrisonimperial princesomewhatnodscrabbedly: „Iunderstood, mother. Therefore, wecannotmakefourboundarydukesjoin up, mustmakethemproduce the contradiction, suchSt. Lawrence Familycanmaintainto the control of empire.”
哈里森皇子有些艰涩地点点头:“我明白了,母亲。所以,我们不能让四境公爵联合起来,必须让他们彼此之间产生矛盾,这样圣洛伦佐家族才能保持对帝国的掌控力。”Empress Midellathenshows the gratifiedsmile, puts out a handto touchson'shairgently, the nodsaid: „Right. Youmustremember, the guarantee of St. Lawrence Familyaloofposition, lies inmakingfourboundariesbalanceandrestrict mutually.”弥黛拉皇后这才露出欣慰的笑容,伸手轻轻摸了摸儿子的头发,点头道:“没错。你要记住,圣洛伦佐家族超然地位的保证,在于让四境相互平衡、相互制约。”Harrisonimperial princenodslayer on layer/heavily, mother'swordsfirmkeeping firmly in mindbottom.
哈里森皇子重重地点了点头,将母亲的话牢牢记在心底。Immediatelyhealsoasked: „That, halfelfkingdom? How should wetreatthisdependent country?”
随即他又问道:“那么,半精灵王国呢?我们该怎么对待这种附属国?”„Thissmall countrydoes not needto puttoomanythoughts.” The Empress Midellafacial expressionwas obviously optional, „, but, fromthiscampaign, some armyalsogood points of halfelf, seems to be worthwinning overactually.”
“这种小国不必花太多心思。”弥黛拉皇后的神情明显随意了许多,“不过,从这场战役来看,半精灵的军队似乎还有些可取之处,倒是值得拉拢一下。”„Did I, coronatetoQueenAishaas scheduled?”
“那我还是按照原计划,给艾莎女王加冕吗?”Empress Midellahave a relishlookstoownson: „Do you have whatotheridea?”弥黛拉皇后饶有兴致地看向自己儿子:“你难道还有什么别的想法?”Looksvision that mother encourages, Harrisonimperial princehas the courage saying:
看着母亲鼓励的目光,哈里森皇子鼓起勇气说道:
„ Ifelt, although the Medwinfamilydeclared that yieldson own initiativetoMill the family, butthesemust haveunavoidablyforcesandthreatens. IfIgiveAisha Millsuch a usurperto coronate, to makeempiremorecareeristssee the hope?
“我觉得,虽然墨狄温家族宣称是主动让位给米勒家族的,但这其中难免少不了逼迫和威胁。如果我给艾莎・米勒这样一位篡位者加冕,岂不是会让帝国更多的野心家们看到了希望?Therefore, Ibelieve,shoulddeposeQueenAisha, holds the throne the Medwinfamily, as the matter stands, Medwinfamily, no matterstems fromfeels grateful, toseek the support, mustcloselyfollowinSt. Lawrence Familybehind. ”
所以,我认为,应该废黜艾莎女王,将墨狄温家族重新扶上王位,这样一来,墨狄温家族不管是出于感恩,还是为了寻求支持,都必须紧紧跟在圣洛伦佐家族身后。”„Yousaidveryreasonable.” The Empress Midellaappreciationnods.
“你说的很有道理。”弥黛拉皇后赞赏地点点头。Harrisonimperial princejustshowed the smile, actuallylistens to mother to continue saying: „Butyouknow that rejects the consequence that givesAisha Millto coronateiswhat?”
哈里森皇子刚刚露出笑容,却又听母亲继续道:“但你知道拒绝给艾莎・米勒加冕的后果是什么吗?”„Whatis?”
“是什么?”„Is a hate of halfelfclan, north the disaffection of boundary. Perhapsmore seriouspointwords, do not wantto go out of the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gateperfectly.”
“是半精灵一族的怨恨,还有北境的不满。更严重一点的话,或许你都别想完好无损地走出银月城。”Harrisonimperial princesmilesolidifiedimmediately, hissomewhatfearful and apprehensivesmallsound said: „...... Sowon't be serious?”
哈里森皇子的笑容顿时凝固了,他有些心惊胆战地小声道:“不会……这么严重吧?”
The Empress Midellacomplexionexceptionallyis serious: „ Harrison, youmustknow,does not have the political strategy of correspondingstrengthsupport, is only a joke.弥黛拉皇后的脸色却异常严肃:“哈里森,你要知道,没有相应实力支撑的权谋,只是个笑话。
Do youwantto deposeQueenAisha? Buthasto think, after thesewins, shepositioninhalfelfheartlofty? Youdo that canarouse the hate of halfelf?
你想要废黜艾莎女王?但有没有想过,这一场大胜后,她在半精灵心中的地位有多崇高?你这么做,会不会激起半精灵的怨恨?
Do youwantto straighten up the Medwinfamily? Butwithout the they of strengthandprestigioussupport, onlydepends onyoura few words, canwinten million/countlessgiving loyalty to of halfelfofficers?
你想扶正墨狄温家族?但没有实力和名望支撑的他们,难道仅凭你的一句话,就能赢得千万半精灵将士的效忠?North the boundary, theylook that willinglyyoudo pay the enormouspriceto integrate the halfelfkingdom in controlthemto take awaywith ease?
还有北境,他们会心甘情愿地看着你将他们付出极大代价才纳入掌控中的半精灵王国轻松拿走?Is it possible thatyouprepareto depend onoutside300people of guardteams, goes toabout the situation in halfelfkingdom? ”
莫非你就准备靠着外面的这一支三百人的侍卫队,去左右半精灵王国的局势?”Is listening tomother'sinterrogations, Harrisonimperial princeimmediately the streaming with sweat.
听着母亲的一声声质问,哈里森皇子顿时汗如雨下。Thisyoungimperial princeis dauntedby the bad risk that in the political strifecontainedobviously.
这位年幼的皇子显然被政治争斗中所蕴含的凶险吓住了。Empress Midellasees that sighedin a soft voice, the youngsonwill drag into the bosom, comforted saying: The thing that „ Harrison, youmuststudyalsohas, butbefore then, youremember certainly, littlesaidlittledoes, observation.弥黛拉皇后见状,轻声叹息一声,将年幼的儿子拉入怀中,安慰道:“哈里森,你要学的东西还有很多,但在此之前,你一定记住,少说少做,多观察。
The underageyoung lionmustlearnto hideowncanine and sharp claws, because ofthatretreating in fearenemy, will not only causeto dreadandbe vigilant. ”
未成年的幼狮一定要学会隐藏自己的尖牙和利爪,因为那并不会吓退敌人,只会引起忌惮和警惕。”„Yes, mother, mymeetinglittle darlingcoronatestoQueenAisha.”Harrisonimperial princebosom that buriesin mother, stuffysound said.
“是,母亲,我会乖乖给艾莎女王加冕。”哈里森皇子将头埋在母亲的怀里,闷声道。„Un.”Empress Midellarubbedson'shair , the reminder said that „ViscountAngelie who other, you must pay attention to win over the northboundary.”
“恩。”弥黛拉皇后揉了揉儿子的头发,又提醒道,“另外,你还要注意拉拢一下北境的安格列子爵。”„Why?”
“为什么?”„Becausehenowis the actualmaster in halfelfkingdom.”
“因为他现在才是半精灵王国的真正主人。”Harrisonimperial princeraised the headperplexed, actuallysees the meaning that mother has not further explained.
哈里森皇子不明所以地抬起头,却见母亲并没有进一步解释的意思。Butstares at the last few words on informationto be lost in thought.
而是盯着情报上的最后一句话怔怔出神。
Those wordsimpressivelyare-
那句话赫然是-QueenAishahas the pregnancy.
艾莎女王已有身孕。
