The evening banquet eight points of swallowtail fort finished. 凤蝶堡的晚宴八点就结束了。 Returns to the dwelling, Vera takes off the high-heeled shoes, while said to own husband: 回到住处,薇拉一边脱下高跟鞋,一边对自己的丈夫说道: „Colin, Madame Grace told me a moment ago, Count Morison wants to request to marry the Nina older female cousin, wants to ask me to help.” “柯林,刚才葛瑞丝夫人告诉我,莫里森伯爵想要求娶妮娜堂姐,想请我帮帮忙。” Colin then smiles to make noise at the scene- also really made scholar Dawn guessing. 柯林当场便笑出了声-还真让道恩学士给猜中了。 Morison family is really non- St. Hilde has not married! 莫里森家族还真是非圣希尔德不娶呀！ Actually this is an abnormal focus, family tradition that is unable to discard,...... has something else planned? 这究竟是一种变态的执着,还是无法舍弃的家族传统,还是……别有所图？ Colin does not know this so-called Nina St. Hilde, but a collateral branch female, even is also surnamed St. Hilde, should also being insufficient make the Count who a reality seals diligently strive. 柯林不认识这个所谓的妮娜・圣希尔德,但一个旁系女子,即便也姓圣希尔德,应该还不至于让一位实封的伯爵孜孜以求吧。 „How can you help? Now Duke St. Hilde just dies, the position of vacancy head of household, Count Morison wants to marry the Nina older female cousin, could not find the person who takes responsibility.” “你能怎么帮呀？如今圣希尔德公爵刚死,家主之位空缺,莫里森伯爵就是想娶妮娜堂姐,也找不到做主的人啊。” Vera is sitting before the dressing table at this time, unloads the sapphire ear pendant, mouth middle course: 薇拉此时正坐在梳妆台前,将蓝宝石耳坠卸下,口中道: „Un, Madame Grace is also clear this point, she said that this matter for a while, does not wait for the northern boundary rebellion to subside eagerly, the after ownership of position of northern boundary duke settles down, discussed the wedding of Count Morison again.” “嗯,葛瑞丝夫人也清楚这一点,她说此事也不急于一时,等北境叛乱平息,北境公爵之位的归属尘埃落定之后,再来谈莫里森伯爵的婚事。” Colin looks that Vera solves to fall long skirt, reveals waist and clear slender big long leg that graceful grasp, said with a smile: 柯林看着薇拉解掉身上的长裙,露出盈盈一握的腰肢和圆润纤细的大长腿,笑着说道: „Regarding is inherited north this by whom the position of boundary duke, what did Madame Grace have with you says?” “对于由谁来继承这个北境公爵之位,葛瑞丝夫人有没有跟你说什么？” It seems like the Colin scalding hot vision to make Vera complexion slightly flood red, she then gouged man one eyes, the quick-moving changed the silk pajamas, shook the head saying: 似乎是柯林灼热的目光让薇拉脸色微微泛红,她回头剜了男人一眼,动作迅速地换好丝绸睡衣,摇头道: „No. But shouldn't the position of duke, inherit by Joyce?” “没有。但公爵之位,不是应该由乔伊斯来继承吗？” Colin sees the ignorant lovely wife, suddenly realized oneself should also discuss with her candidly, perhaps otherwise she does not think oneself can also strive for the position of northern boundary duke. 柯林看着懵懂的娇妻,忽然意识到自己也应该跟她开诚布公地谈一谈了,不然她恐怕都不会想到自己也可以去争取北境公爵之位。 „Joyce is not north the boundary marquis, how can say that is ‚should’?” “乔伊斯又不是北境侯爵,怎么能说是‘应该’呢？” Vera obviously gawked staring: „But according to inheriting the position, Joyce truly placed now forefront.” 薇拉明显愣了愣:“但按照继承顺位,乔伊斯现在确实是排在最前面的啊。” Colin unties the bow tie, loses conveniently on the table, then before arriving at Vera body, hints her to help itself take off the formal clothes, the mouth middle course: 柯林解开领结,顺手丢在桌上,然后走到薇拉身前,示意她帮自己脱掉礼服,口中道: „But Joyce after all is only ten years old, making such a child the northern lord of boundary, do you feel appropriate?” “但乔伊斯毕竟才十岁,让这样一个孩童成为北境之主,你觉得合适吗？” Vera is solving Colin chest front button, while looks up the doubts the eyes of man: „What issue has? In the feudal lord principle has not stipulated the minimum age limit of feudal lord.” 薇拉一边解着柯林胸前的纽扣,一边抬头疑惑地看着男人的眼睛:“有什么问题吗？领主法则里并没有规定领主的最低年龄限制啊。” Colin shakes the head: „I did not question Joyce's inheritance qualifications, but was the worry, such is a mental not mature child, really capable of dealing with the current northern boundary chaotic situation?” 柯林摇摇头:“我不是质疑乔伊斯的继承资格,而是担心,这样一个心智不成熟的孩童,难道真有能力去应对目前的北境乱局？” Hears here, Vera frowns, the movement on hand also stopped, as if also thought that ten -year-old younger brother was undertaken such heavy responsibility truly some is not inappropriate by oneself. 听到这里,薇拉不禁皱起了眉头,手上的动作也停了下来,似乎也觉得让自己年仅十岁的弟弟承担这样的重任确实有些不合适。 „That...... you thought that who can undertake such heavy responsibility?” Vera's tone somewhat shivers, obviously, she also realized that Colin actually wants to say anything. “那……你觉得谁能承担这样的重任？”薇拉的语气有些颤抖,显然,她也意识到柯林到底想说什么了。 „I think you to be able!” Colin sinking sound said, two see oneself wife fiery, as if wants this firm transmission in the past. “我认为你可以！”柯林沉声道,两眼炯炯有神地看着自己的妻子,似乎想把这份坚定传递过去。 „I......” Vera's look somewhat move aside, both hands closely are gripping husband's shirt, with not the self-confident language gas channel/angrily said, „I...... I can?” “我……”薇拉的眼神有些躲闪,双手紧紧攥着丈夫的衬衣,用不自信的语气道,“我……我能吗？” „Naturally!” Colin supports into Vera the bosom, a kiss on her icy cold forehead, the tone said gently seriously, „in my opinion, the qualified northern lord of boundary, must have fairly, good, pities, the tenacious moral excellence, but these, you have!” “当然！”柯林将薇拉拥入怀中,在她冰凉的额头上轻轻一吻,语气郑重地说道,“在我看来,一位合格的北境之主,应当具备公正、善良、怜悯、坚韧的美德,而这些,你都有！” „I......” Vera am sipping the lip, said scruple, „, but I do not know how to govern the territory......” “我……”薇拉抿着嘴唇,迟疑道,“但我根本不知道怎么治理领地啊……” „That secondary.” Colin big hand wields, a confident appearance, „ political, you can seek for advice scholar Dawn, how he to governs the northern boundary to have a familiar task and handle it with ease. “那都是次要的。”柯林大手一挥,一副胸有成竹的模样,“政治方面,你可以求教道恩学士,他对如何治理北境可谓驾轻就熟。 But in military...... ” 而在军事方面……” Colin gave the thumbs-up, gesticulated oneself, said self-confidently: „You can definitely trust your husband! No matter the eastern boundary, is Troll, I can attend to with ease, occupies as for the present in the rebel army influence of northern boundary, radically nothing to be afraid!” 柯林竖起大拇指,比划了一下自己,自信满满地说道:“你完全可以信赖你的丈夫！不管是东境,还是巨魔,我都能轻松料理,至于现在盘踞在北境的叛军势力,也根本不足为惧！” Looks at the husband smelly fart the appearance, Vera smiles, before that terrified nervousness retrogression were on the contrary many. 看着丈夫臭屁的模样,薇拉莞尔一笑,之前那种紧张惶恐的情绪反倒消退不少。 She stretches out one to handle gently caresses Colin's chest, the finger in Colin's chest front drawing a circle circle, the look was saying sparklingly: „Right! My husband cuts to kill the Troll Emperor big hero now personally!” 她伸出一只手轻抚着柯林的胸膛,手指在柯林的胸前画着圈圈,眼神亮晶晶地说道:“对！我的丈夫现在可是亲手斩杀了巨魔皇帝的大英雄呢！” Colin laughs, seizes lovely wife's red lip, came a Buddhist ritual procedures deep kiss, later pursues asks: „What kind of? Having the confidence became the northern lord of boundary?” 柯林哈哈大笑,捉住娇妻的红唇,就来了一个法式深吻,随后追问道:“怎么样？有信心成为北境之主了？” Vera lies in Colin chest, without speech. 薇拉趴在柯林胸口,没有说话。 Colin sees that opens the mouth to say again: „ You , if not undertake this heavy responsibility on own initiative, did not fear that the Joyce immature shoulder was crashed by this heavy burden? 柯林见状,再次开口道:“你如果不主动承担起这份重任,就不怕乔伊斯稚嫩的肩膀被这份重担压垮？ Thinks that the situation of northern boundary, mental of ten -year-old child, really can deal now safely? ” 想想吧,如今北境的局势,一个十岁孩童的心智,真的能够安然应对吗？” Vera long time, raised the head silent finally, being at a loss in look vanishes finally does not see, displaces, is gives self up to the absorbed firmness. 薇拉沉默半晌,终于抬起头来,眼神中的迷惘终于消失不见,取而代之的,是舍身忘我的坚定。 „Good, if everyone thinks that should inherit the position of duke by me, I will not decline!” “好,如果大家都认为应该由我继承公爵之位,那我也绝不会推辞！” Colin relaxes finally, says with a smile: „This is true St. Hilde should have the acting that!” 柯林终于松了口气,笑道:“这才是一位真正的圣希尔德该有的担当嘛！” Wei has a long face to reappear to wipe to blush, the tone becomes some is not self-confident again: 薇拉脸上浮现出一抹红晕,语气再次变得有些不自信起来: „But I am also not necessarily able to inherit the position of duke. Joyce's right of inheritance must first in me, let alone, this also probably consult the emperor with the opinion of Upper House.” “但我也未必能继承公爵之位呀。乔伊斯的继承权要优先于我,更何况,这还要咨询皇帝陛下和元老院的意见。” „This you did not need to be worried.” Colin said self-confidently. “这个你就不用担心了。”柯林自信地说道。 Sees vision that Vera casts to have doubts, he has to make fun: „I believe that the emperor and Empire Upper House will make the correct choice, you now are north the boundary true need leader.” 见薇拉投来疑惑的目光,他只好打着哈哈:“我相信皇帝陛下和帝国元老院都会做出正确的选择,你现在才是北境真正需要的领袖。” „Colin, you too overestimated me......” Vera to spit the tongue, what immediately as if remembered, suddenly eye one bright, proposed, „you said that if made Uncle Garcia work as north this boundary duke, was better?” “柯林,你太高估我了……”薇拉吐了吐舌头,随即似乎想起了什么,突然眼睛一亮,提议道,“你说,如果让加西亚叔叔来当这个北境公爵,是不是更好？” „Marquis Garcia?” When Clinton frowns. “加西亚侯爵？”柯林顿时皱起了眉头。 Without Vera this sign, Colin will definitely consider Marquis Garcia. 如果没有薇拉这张牌,那柯林肯定会考虑加西亚侯爵。 However, if there is to become a duke husband's opportunity, the son-in-law who how Colin can be willing only to be a duke? 然而,如果有成为公爵丈夫的机会,柯林怎么会愿意只当一个公爵的女婿？ Although Marquis Garcia really has the graciousness to Colin, but Colin rather redeems Marquis Garcia, is supplying delicious tastily. 虽然加西亚侯爵对柯林确实有恩,但柯林宁可把加西亚侯爵赎回来,好吃好喝供着。 Just sent off a mountain that pressed in the top of the head, Colin does not want to go looking for trouble to make a new mountain again. 刚送走一座压在头顶的大山,柯林可不想再自找麻烦弄来一座新的大山。 „ In Duke St. Hilde also has in the situation that the son and adopted daughter may choose, Upper House will not agree makes Marquis Garcia inherit the position of northern boundary duke. “在圣希尔德公爵还有儿子和养女可选的情况下,元老院是不会同意让加西亚侯爵继承北境公爵之位的。 Let alone, the northern boundary person unlikely is also hard the duke who accepted one once to degenerate into the eastern boundary captive. 更何况,北境人恐怕也难以接受一位曾沦为东境俘虏的公爵。 What kind of brilliant achievement regardless of he had obtained before, but the shame of shadow canyon...... feared that must follow the Marquis Garcia life. ” 无论他之前取得过怎样的辉煌战绩,但暗影峡谷的耻辱……怕是要伴随加西亚侯爵一生了。” Heard Colin to say like this, Vera then somewhat nods disappointedly. 听到柯林这样说,薇拉这才有些失望地点点头。 „Ok, do not think.” Colin pecked in the wife cheeks lightly, „prepared for undertaking this heavy responsibility psychology to be good. Other, give the emperor and Upper House decide.” “好了,你不要多想了。”柯林在妻子脸颊轻啄了一下,“自己做好承担这个重任的心理准备就好了。其他的,就交给皇帝和元老院来决定吧。” „Good.” Vera nods cleverly , a Colin good night kiss. “好。”薇拉乖巧地点点头,也还了柯林一个晚安吻。 Two people destroy completely the magic lamp immediately, goes to bed the rest. 两人随即灭掉魔法灯,上床休息。 The sky star light of out of the window is thin, only then a crescent moon overhangs in the treetop, under projection light cold light. 窗外的天空星光稀薄,只有一轮弯月高挂在树梢,投射下淡淡的冷光。 After at midnight, window that the swallowtail fort has not turned on a light, only then on corridor in Hegang sentry box also a little ignition light. 午夜之后,凤蝶堡已经没有亮灯的窗户了,只有长廊上和岗哨亭中还有点点火光。 The cry of indistinct owl transmits from afar, lets this quiet night obviously peaceful. 隐约的猫头鹰的叫声远远传来,让这静谧的夜更显安宁。 „Vera? Vera?” Colin called several in wife's ear, sees her heavy to go off, this sets out quietly, wears the civilian clothes, jumps down from the window. “薇拉？薇拉？”柯林在妻子的耳边叫了几声,见她已沉沉睡去,这才悄然起身,穿上便服,从窗户一跃而下。 In the air is filling the fresh elegantly simple tulip flower fragrance, vague smell of blood. 空气中弥漫着清新淡雅的郁金香花香,还有一丝若有若无的血腥味。
