Accompanies the bride to her new home the missionunderlining the street to welcome of halfelfpeople, arrived atsituated in the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gatecentralhalfelfroyal palace.
送亲使团在半精灵民众的夹道欢迎下,来到了位于银月城中央的半精灵王宫。Althoughhalfelfroyal palaceis resplendent in gold and jade green, althoughhalfelfkingstandsbefore the imperial city gate, butColin'svisionor the earliest possible timelockedon a female-
虽然半精灵王宫金碧辉煌,虽然半精灵国王就站在宫门前,但柯林的目光还是第一时间锁定在了一位女子身上-Halfelfqueen!
半精灵王后!Thisishalfelfgirl who slenderselectshigh, has the dreamcommonappearance, hermanneris solemnandelegantly simple, both handssupport the sideagedhalfelfking, making one take a quick look around, enduresnot to embarksigh-
这是位窈窕高挑的半精灵女郎,有着梦幻一般的容颜,她的神态端庄而淡雅,双手扶住身旁老迈的半精灵国王,让人一眼看去,忍不出发出叹息-Really a fresh flowerinsertson the cow dung!
真是一朵鲜花插在牛粪上!Colintakes back the slightlyimpolitevisionhastily, bowsto salutetoward the king and queen.
柯林连忙收回略显无礼的目光,向着国王和王后躬身行礼。Simultaneouslyinheartunstated criticism:
同时心中腹诽:No wonder the queenneedsto adopt a son, depends on the appearance that halfelfkingsubstationcannot come to a stop, does not have the queen who the abilitylets the youngbeautiful appearanceto be withon the child.
难怪王后需要收养一个儿子,就凭半精灵国王这副站都站不稳的样子,想必也没能力让年轻美貌的王后怀上孩子。At this time, Verafrom the carriage, salutedto the kingfinally.
此时,薇拉终于从马车中走了出来,向国王行礼。Today'sVeradoes not have the splendid attireto dress up, onlywore a formbriefwhiteone-piece dress, the bodydoes not haveotherdecorations, is only leaving a smallSt. Hildefamilybadgebefore the left chest.
今天的薇拉并没有盛装打扮,只穿了一件格式简约的白色连衣裙,身上也没有其它的装饰,只在左胸前别着一枚小小的圣希尔德家族徽章。In such grandsituation, Vera'ssuchattire is actually verydisrespectful.
在这样隆重的场合,薇拉这样的装束其实是很失礼的。But the sceneactuallyno onedaresto speak the accusation.
但现场却没人敢出言指责。Just likes a chillysnowlotus flower, the young girlstandsbeforehalfelfroyal palacelike thisunemotionally, seems to the silentprotest of destiny.
犹如一朵清冷的雪莲花,少女就这样面无表情地站在半精灵王宫前,仿佛是对命运的无声抗议。„Wei...... MissVera, Anger...... arranges in order the viscount, please...... pleasedo not needoverly courteous......”
“薇……薇拉小姐,安格……列子爵,请……请不必多礼……”
The tone of halfelfkingis light, as ifgustcanblow off.
半精灵国王的语气轻飘飘的,仿佛一阵风就能吹散。„Honoredguests, pleaseenter the palacequickly. Wehave prepared the sumptuousgood foodgood wine, gives a welcoming dinnerforreception.”
“尊贵的客人们,快请进宫吧。我们已经准备了丰盛的美食美酒,为诸位接风洗尘。”
The kinggoes out of a middle-agedhalfelfmanbehind, salutedto saytowardColinand the others.
国王身后走出一位中年半精灵男子,朝着柯林等人行礼道。„Your HighnessPrince Williamsaidright, come inquickly!”DukeMillalsourgedhastily.
“威廉王子殿下说得对,诸位快请进!”米勒公爵也连忙劝道。Meanwhile, selected the status of thatmiddle-aged man.
同时,也将那位中年男子的身份点了出来。
The biological son of halfelfkinganddeceasedqueen- bigprinceWilliamMedwin.
正是半精灵国王与已故王后的亲生儿子-大王子威廉・墨狄温。Colinfelt,thisbigprinceandDukeMillare so letting the reason that the peopleenter the palaceanxiously, perhaps was worried that seniorkingstoodfor a long time the suddenbelchfart outside.
柯林觉得,这位大王子和米勒公爵如此急着让众人进宫的原因,恐怕是担心那位老国王在外面站久了突然嗝屁了吧。Therefore, healsoaccepts good advice readily, immediatelyis gettingVera, enteredhalfelfroyal palace.
于是,他也从善如流,当即领着薇拉,走进了半精灵王宫。Halfelfclansman who solikes to look goodnaturallycannotbe parsimonioustoownroyal palace, Colinwalks, eachplace that in the line of sightseesarrangesresplendently in gold and jade green, filled with the luxuriousluxuriousaura, even the St. Hildefamily'slionroarfortis inferior tohereinthisaspect.
如此爱美的半精灵族人自然不会对自己的王宫吝啬,柯林一路走来,视线里看到的每个地方都布置得金碧辉煌,充满了豪华奢侈的气息,甚至圣希尔德家族的狮吼堡在这方面都不如这里。Across the longwinding corridor, goes to the banquet hall.
穿过长长的回廊,来到宴会大厅。On the dark-redrugplaces the tables of longlinearity, the tableupper berth the heavy blueencirclementfabric, aboveis placinghalfelfkingdomuniquebloodwild rose.
暗红色的地毯上摆放着一张张长条形的桌子,桌子上铺着藏青色的围绒,上面摆放着半精灵王国特有的血蔷薇。
The lightflower fragrancefills the airin the air, completely relaxed.
淡淡的花香弥漫在空气中,令人心旷神怡。Halfelfmaidservant who staturesselecthighsuch as the variegated butterflyis shuttling back and forthin the hallgenerallylithely, seats of people11introductioncorrespondences.
一位位身材高挑的半精灵侍女如花蝴蝶一般在厅中轻盈地穿梭着,将众人一一引入对应的座位。Colinstepsin the thickrug, thatsoftcomfortabletouchmakeshimhave the strollingcloudsmisconception, afteronownseatsits down, henarrows the eyeto size up the crystal chandelier on ceiling.
柯林踩在厚实的地毯上,那种绵软舒适的触感让他有种漫步云端的错觉,在自己的座位上坐下后,他又眯起眼睛打量起天花板上的水晶吊灯。Thatiseightdiameterwidethree-metercrystalmagiclamps, the magicenergy that insidesends outilluminates each corner of entirebanquet halljust like the daytime.
那是八盏直径宽达三米的水晶魔法灯,里面散发的魔法能量将整个宴会厅的每个角落都照得恍如白昼。Lowers the head, the frontis placing the assortedfinestarterandlooks at the especiallyexpensivewine, the tableware, is the pure goldbuilds, aboveis carving the Medwinfamily'sbadge.
低下头,面前摆放着各色精美的餐点和一看就格外昂贵的葡萄酒,就连餐具,都是纯金打造的,上面雕刻着墨狄温家族的徽章。Toohis motherwas rich!
太他娘的有钱了!Colinrememberedin the predecessormemory the relevant informationabouthalfelfrace.
柯林不禁想起了前身记忆中关于半精灵这个种族的相关信息。Theywithtworaces that the goblinandnamethe world'smostcando business, whatif the goblinmerchantbecomes famousto dependplans carefully the doing businesstalent that thenhalfelfmerchant, dependedwas the womanpolitics.
他们与地精并称这个世界最会做生意的两个种族,如果说地精商人成名靠的是精打细算的经商天赋,那么半精灵商人,靠的就是女人政治了。Right, halfelfbeautiful womanis world-famous, butdepends ondelivers the womanto the majorinfluences, halfelfmerchantunfolds a human relationsnetwork that quicklycoveredmainlandeachcorner, returns to the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gate the innumerablewealthbelts.
没错,半精灵美人天下闻名,而靠着给各大势力送女人,半精灵商人很快就铺开一张覆盖了大陆各个角落的人脉关系网,将无数财富带回到银月城。However, thesewealthwill certainly draw the stare that covets.
但是,这些财富当然会引来觊觎的目光。Therefore, halfelfturned to the brillianceempiredecisively, every yearturns in the big pento consecrate, toreceive in exchange for the asylum of empire.
所以,半精灵果断投靠了光辉帝国,每年上缴大笔供奉,就为了换取帝国的庇护。Buthadempireadoptive father, halfelfkingdomon the simplelevel, the domesticmilitarymilitary was very the relaxation, the regular armytotal of nationalalso50,000people . Moreover the battle efficiencyalsodrewit is saidextremely.
而有了帝国这个干爹,半精灵王国就干脆躺平了,国内的军事武备极为松弛,全国的正规军总数也才五万人,而且战斗力据说也极为拉垮。Without the means that was so rich, whois willingto go to the battlefieldto go all out?
没办法,都这么有钱了,谁又愿意去战场拼命呢?InColinindulges in flights of fancy, the banquethas started.
就在柯林胡思乱想间,宴会已经开始了。Seniorkingwiththattype of air/Qi, if the intonation of gossamerwere saying the ambiguoustoast, hearingColinto be drowsy.
老国王还是用那种气若游丝的语调说着含混不清的祝酒词,听得柯林昏昏欲睡。
The entiredinner partyprocess is also tasteless.
整个会餐过程也是乏味至极。Veragraspssilentis being the gold/metalprinciple, only ifwere closely examinedhas no recourseto return tooccasionally„well”, yes, „to”...... and so on word, will not beonewill soon marryinto the femalepropercondition in halfelfroyal familycompletely.
薇拉秉持着沉默是金的原则,除非被追问得迫不得已才偶尔回个“好”、“是”、“对”……之类的单词,完全不是一位即将嫁入半精灵王室的女子应有的状态。But the Medwinroyal family membernot onlydoes not dareto have the complaint, but must servequite, looks for the topicnot to make the atmosphereextremelyawkwarddiligently.
但墨狄温王室成员不仅不敢有怨言,还必须好生伺候着,努力找着话题不让气氛太过尴尬。Colinlooks that is tiredforthem.
柯林看着都替他们累。
The atmosphere on Lordtableso, halfelfaristocrats on otherminute/share of tablesdo not certainly dareto clamorloudly, the entirebanquet hallalmostonlyhears the knife and forktouches the dinner platedingdong the sound.
主桌上的气氛如此,其余分桌上的半精灵贵族们当然更加不敢大声喧哗了,整个宴会厅几乎只听到刀叉触碰餐盘的叮当响声。Finallywhendines, the maidservantswithdraw the longtable.
终于等到用餐完毕,侍女们撤去长桌。
The melodiousmusical soundresounds, the dance partystarted.
悠扬的音乐声响起,舞会开始了。However, the atmospherewas still awkward.
但是,气氛仍然尴尬至极。
The Vera'spestlelike the klutz there, no oneresponds.
薇拉像个木头人一样杵在那里,谁也不搭理。NearbyPrinceToupet the facewas madgreen, butmustmaintain the smile.
旁边的图佩王子脸都气绿了,但还是得保持微笑。Colinthislittle whiledoes not darewhereaboutsVerato invite the dance, perhapsotherwise, thatbreathlessPrinceToupetmustthrow the white glovestohim.
柯林这会儿可不敢去向薇拉邀舞,否则,那位气急败坏的图佩王子恐怕又要向他扔白手套了。However, had many halfelfaristocratyoung girlto encircleactuallysideColin, obviouslytheywereinquired that thisViscountAngeliefromnorthernboundaryhad not gotten married, comesto try one's luck.
不过,倒是有不少半精灵贵族少女围在了柯林身边,显然她们是打听到了这位来自北境的安格列子爵还未成婚,前来碰碰运气。Looks that prettysuch as the flowerfacesauntersin the side, Colin is actually smiling bitterly11rejections.
看着一张张貌美如花的面庞在身边转悠,柯林却只是苦笑着一一拒绝。Healwaysthought that Vera'svisionis sweepingunintentionally, makinghisbacklivecoldly.
他总觉得薇拉的目光在有意无意地扫过来,让他背脊生寒。Moreover, to be honest, heis not truly interestedinthesehalfelfaristocratyoung girls.
而且,说实话,他对这些半精灵贵族少女也确实不感兴趣。Althoughtheywell, butalsonot necessarilyhas the WeiLatin America.
虽然她们长得不错,但也未必有薇拉美。As for the status, thatwas naturally inferior.
至于身份,那自然更不如了。Halfelfbeautiful womanalwayshas„the bestsweetheart” the name.
半精灵美人向来有“最好的情人”之称。But the attention, this is also only„sweetheart”, rather than„madame”.
但注意,这也只是“情人”,而不是“夫人”。Anybeing clear-headedhumanaristocrat is very clear, halfelfbeautiful woman can only work as the sweetheart, cannotreallymarryto go home.
任何一个头脑清醒的人类贵族都很清楚,半精灵美人只能当情人,不能真的娶回家。
The reasonis very simple- the title of brillianceempire can only inheritbybloodlinepurehuman.
原因很简单-光辉帝国的爵位只能由血统纯正的人类继承。Therefore, facing the warmhalfelfyoung girls, Colinhasplease excuse my inability to comply.
所以,面对热情的半精灵少女们,柯林只好敬谢不敏了。Bothhonoredguestssodo not show due respect for the feelings, the atmosphere of banquet was naturally impossibleto be warm.
两位尊贵的客人都这般不给面子,宴会的气氛自然是不可能热烈起来了。Butthatagedhalfelfking, lay downon the chairunexpectedlydirectlyfalls asleep.
而那位老迈的半精灵国王,竟然都直接躺在椅子上睡着了。Therefore, justcrossedeightpoints, the queenthenannounced that early the banquetended.
于是,刚过八点,王后便早早地宣布宴会结束。„Reallysorry, thistimebanquethas not madetwoenjoy oneself to the full!”
“实在抱歉,这次的宴会没有让两位尽兴!”Looks the queen who comes the soft and gentle wordsapologypersonally, Colinalsobeckons with the handto saywith a smile: „Queenyour highnesswas polite, actuallywemade a long and wearisome journeywere also tired, is just thinkingmustrestearlier.”
看着亲自前来软语道歉的王后,柯林也笑着摆摆手道:“王后殿下客气了,其实我们长途跋涉也累了,正想着要早点休息呢。”„Good, Toupet, deliverstwohonoredgueststo rest.”
“好的,图佩,送两位尊贵的客人去休息。”„Yes.”
“是。”
After packing offVeraandColin, the queenthengoes forwardto attempt the king who supports by the armto fall asleep.
送走薇拉和柯林后,王后便上前试图搀扶睡着的国王。„Royal Mother, Icome.” A Prince Williamactuallyfirstfootpath.
“母后,还是我来吧。”威廉王子却抢先一步道。„Good, youdeliveryour majestyto go backto rest. Ideliverseeing a visitor outpeopleagain.”
“好的,你送陛下回去休息。我再去送送客人们。”„Un.”
“恩。”Supports by the arm the king of sleeping soundly, Prince Williamis walkingtoward the resting palace.
搀扶着熟睡的国王,威廉王子向着寝宫走去。„Youget down.” The kingwill placeon the bed of resting palace, Prince Williamwavestowardbehindaides.
“你们都下去吧。”将国王放在寝宫的床榻上,威廉王子朝身后的侍从们挥挥手。„Yes.”
“是。”Waits for the front door of resting palaceto close, the king who slept soundlyactuallyopens the eyessuddenly.
等寝宫的大门重新关上,原本熟睡的国王却突然睁开双眼。Saw onlyhimto actto crawlagilely, wherehad the beforehandthatdyingagedappearance.
只见他动作敏捷地爬了起来,哪有之前那副垂死的老迈模样。
