银月城,半精灵王宫。Colinsitson the throneuninhibitedlyhigh, wears the left handindex finger of crystalringto strike the purple goldarm restgently, the visionis looking under the staireaselyto the easternboundaryenvoy who oneselfbowto salute.
柯林旁若无人地高坐在王座上,佩戴水晶戒指的左手食指轻轻敲打着紫金扶手,目光悠然地望着台阶下正在向自己躬身行礼的东境使者。„The northernboundaryprotector of respect, SirCount Angelie, eastmyrepresentative the boundarylordDukeSt. Plossi, the matter of doingwassincerestsorryformarquisVincenttoyou! Hopesyoucanreadin the easternboundarywith the northernboundary for a lot ofyears the friendship, forgivesmarquisVincentnot to observe, the mistake that makesfor a while.”
“尊敬的北境守护者,安格列伯爵大人,我代表东境之主圣普洛斯公爵,为文森特侯爵所做之事向您表示最诚挚的歉意!希望您能念在东境与北境千百年来的友谊,宽恕文森特侯爵一时不察,犯下的过错。”East this boundaryenvoyisfacial featuresfairyoung people, mustobviouslypass throughcarefulhandlingshort, in the foreheadswas passinglightacting with constraint and arrogance, aristocratformal clotheswere indicatingheis a viscount.
这位东境使者是一位面容白皙的年轻人,短须明显经过了精心的打理,眉宇间透着一股淡淡的矜持和傲气,身上的贵族礼服表明着他是一位子爵。„Feebecause of the viscount, you were justcaught upfrom the alfalfacity?”Colinaskedwith a laugh.
“费因子爵,您是刚从苜蓿城赶来的吧?”柯林笑呵呵地问道。„Yes.”
“是的。”
The smile on Colinfacewas brighter.
柯林脸上的笑容更加灿烂了。BeforemarquisVincentoncetoldhim, thisin the fee/spent of alfalfacityhostgeneral situationbecause of the viscount, is actually DukeSt. Plossi the second sonCount Ivansupporter.
之前文森特侯爵就曾告诉他,这位在苜蓿城主持大局的费因子爵,其实是圣普洛斯公爵次子埃文伯爵的支持者。Then, this littlemeaning.
那么,这就有点意思了。Unexpectedly the supporter who DukeSt. Plossisends out the second soncomes the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gate, negotiatedwithColinredeemseldest sonmarquisVincent.圣普洛斯公爵竟然派出次子的支持者前来银月城,跟柯林交涉赎回长子文森特侯爵。DukeSt. Plossithis act, is actually was worried that the envoywas blackmailedbyColin, sends an aristocrat of second sondepartment, did not wantowneldest son, did thisgive the second son a destructionto redeem the negotiationsintentionally the opportunity?圣普洛斯公爵此举,究竟是担心使者被柯林敲诈,才派来次子一系的贵族,还是不想要自己的长子了,这才故意给次子一个破坏赎回谈判的机会?Colinstopped the rap of finger, asked: „Heard that the beforehandalfalfacityerupted a large-scalefighting, howdidn't knownowtheresituation?”
柯林停下了手指的敲击,又问道:“听说之前苜蓿城爆发了一场大规模的械斗,不知道现在那里的情况怎么样了?”
The fee/spentreturnsbecause of the viscountrespectfullysaid: „CountSiryoucould rest assured that the alfalfacityhas restorednowstably, Rowenknightis an outstandingcitylord, has controlled the aspect in alfalfacitycompletely.”
费因子爵恭恭敬敬地回道:“伯爵大人您放心,苜蓿城现在已经恢复了稳定,罗恩骑士是一位出色的城主,已经完全掌控住了苜蓿城内的局面。”Colinknows certainly that the opposite partyis talking nonsense, RowenthiscityLord, whenhasis aggrievedhe, butis clear, the alfalfacityis not one's turnRowento control the aspect.
柯林当然知道对方在扯淡,罗恩这个城主当得有多憋屈他可是一清二楚,苜蓿城怎么也轮不到罗恩来掌控局面。Nowalfalfacitytrue„master”, was actually oncethatthiefchieftain- Orlando.
现在苜蓿城真正的“主人”,其实就是曾经的那位小偷头目-奥兰多。To be honest, althoughColingaveOrlandoin secretmanyhelp, even the realbondwill give to the opposite partyto work as the chip, buthewassomeaccidental/surprisedOrlandoreallyadopted the test of easternboundaryunexpectedlyfruitfully, becomes the president of alfalfacityfraternity.
说实话,虽然柯林暗中给了奥兰多不少的帮助,甚至将真的债券都送给了对方当筹码,但他还是有些意外奥兰多竟然真的如愿以偿地通过了东境的考验,成为了苜蓿城兄弟会的会长。
Before easternboundary, arrangesin the alfalfacity, isoneonoutwardlyfifth-order, in fact the soldiers of sixsteps- Cappon.
要知道,东境之前布置在苜蓿城的,可是一位明面上五阶,实际上六阶的战士-卡彭。Thus it can be seeneasternboundaryregardingattaching great importance to of alfalfacity.
由此可见东境对于苜蓿城的重视。Butnow, theyreallysent to the position of alfalfafraternitypresident a thiefchieftainOrlandounexpectedly.
但现在,他们竟然真的将一个小偷头目奥兰多送上了苜蓿兄弟会会长之位。Even ifOrlandotrulychaotic„contributed togreat merit”in the alfalfacity, butthis is to make Colinsomewhatsurprised.
哪怕奥兰多确实在苜蓿城之乱中“立了大功”,但这还是让柯林有些惊讶。Naturally, thisto Colindefinitelyis a unexpected happiness, hecannot bearsomewhatcuriously, actuallythatOrlandohowwins the easternboundarytrust.
当然了,这对于柯林来说肯定是意外之喜,他只是忍不住有些好奇,那位奥兰多究竟是如何取得东境信任的。Said,thisfee/spentwas easily swindledbecause of the viscounttoo?
还是说,这位费因子爵太好骗了?
The fee/spentseesColinnot to speakbecause of the viscountfor a while, thenraised the headslightly, thenhesawonColinfaceis full of the profound meaning the smile.
费因子爵见柯林一时没有说话,便微微抬头,然后他就见到了柯林脸上饱含深意的笑容。Alsowithouthewantsto be clear that thissmilebackmeaning, listens toColinto open the mouthto sayagain:
还没等他想清楚这个笑容背后的含义,就听柯林再次开口道:„Did fee/spentbecause of the viscount, marquisVincentmail back the personal letter of easternboundary, DukeSt. Plossishouldreceive?”
“费因子爵,文森特侯爵寄回东境的亲笔信,圣普洛斯公爵应该收到了吧?”„Yes.”
“是的。”„WhatviewdukeSirhasregarding the redeemingcondition that in the letter/believesput forward?”
“那公爵大人对于信中所提出的赎回条件有什么看法?”„DukeSirfeltredeemingcondition that youput forward, was oblique!”
“公爵大人觉得您提出的赎回条件,毫无诚意!”
The fee/spentmakesColinstarebecause ofviscountsomewhatimpolitespeaking franklyslightly, buthehas not been angry, butlightsmiles, said: „What's wrong? In order toredeem a son, DukeSt. Plossidoesn't give upseveralships?”
费因子爵有些无礼的直言不讳让柯林微微一愣,不过他也没有生气,只是淡淡一笑,道:“怎么?为了赎回一个儿子,圣普洛斯公爵舍不得几艘船?”„CountSir, youwantmaynot onlybeseveralships.” The fee/spentreturnsbecause of the viscountunrestrained/no trace of politenesssaid,„thatis the completeessence of Pegasussailors! Ifreallygaveyou, how could it not bethatangrywaterriverdid become the taking a bathpond of northernboundaryarmy?”
“伯爵大人,您要的可不仅仅是几艘船呀。”费因子爵毫不客气地回道,“那是天马水军的全部精华!如果真的都给了您,那怒水河岂不就成了北境军队的洗澡池?”Colinshows a faint smile, changed a sitting postureon the throne, askedpatiently: „East you do the boundarypreparationexchange notesmarquisSzentewithwhat?”
柯林微微一笑,在王座上换了个坐姿,耐心地问道:“那你们东境准备拿什么来换文森特侯爵?”
The fee/spenthas not answeredthisissuebecause of the viscount, butraised the head, is looking straight aheadColin'seyes, saidearnestly: „CountSir, before the discussionredeems the condition, should youmakemeseemarquisVincent?”
费因子爵却没有回答这个问题,而是抬起头来,直视着柯林的眼睛,认真地说道:“伯爵大人,在商议赎回条件之前,您是不是应该让我见一见文森特侯爵?”
The smile on Colinfacerestrainedimmediately, is frowning saying: „Youcould rest assured that IwithmarquisVincentwas an old friend, he first time was notbecamemycaptive, althoughIwas angrytohisactionsvery much, butis also insufficientto maltreathim.”
柯林脸上的笑容顿时收敛了,皱着眉头道:“你放心,我跟文森特侯爵是老朋友了,他也不是第一次成为我的俘虏,虽然我对他的所作所为很生气,但还不至于会虐待他。”
The fee/spentactuallypersists insayingbecause of the viscount: „Sorry, CountSir, is not I do not believeyou. ButisDukeSt. Plossiwas worried that owneldest son, calling onme to firstseemarquisVincentwith own eyes, confirmedhimto be safe and sound, then, wediscussedagainredeemed the condition.”
费因子爵却坚持道:“抱歉,伯爵大人,不是我不相信您。而是圣普洛斯公爵担心自己的长子,要求我一定要先亲眼见到文森特侯爵,确认他安然无恙,然后,我们再来谈赎回条件。”Colinlooks at the attitudefirmfee/spentbecause of the viscount, suddenlyhas the profound meaningto ask: „Did fee/spentbecause of the viscount, youheardid not have the basisrumor?”
柯林看着态度坚决的费因子爵,忽然别有深意地问道:“费因子爵,你是不是听到了一些没有根据的谣言?”
The fee/spentsmilesbecause of the viscountlightly, said: „ CountSir, Itrulyheardsomerumors, butpleasefeel relieved,Iam notthattypecanby the person who somegroundlessrumorstouch.
费因子爵淡淡一笑,道:“伯爵大人,我确实听到了一些传言,但请您放心,我不是那种能被一些无凭无据的传言打动的人。Ionlybelievemyeye! ”
我只相信自己的眼睛!”Colinis staring at the fee/spentbecause of the eyes of viscount, the fee/spentdoes not flinchbecause of the viscountlooks at each otherwithhim.
柯林凝视着费因子爵的眼睛,费因子爵也毫不退缩地与他对视。
After long time, Colinsaid with a smile: „Sinceyouwantto seemarquisVincent, good.”
半晌后,柯林才笑道:“既然你这么想见文森特侯爵,那好吧。”Saying, Colinpattedclapping, in the guardto the palaceorders saying: „AskedmarquisVincentto come.”
说着,柯林拍了拍手,对殿中侍卫命令道:“去请文森特侯爵来。”„Yes!” The guardsreceive an orderto goimmediately.
“是!”侍卫当即领命而去。
The fee/spentsees thatbecause of the viscount, in the eyeflashes throughwipingunobservabledoubts, butquickvanishesdoes not see.
费因子爵见状,眼中闪过一抹难以察觉的疑惑,但很快就消失不见。Colinslantingly by chairback, has not spokenagain, butcontinuesto rap the thronearm restwith the left handindex fingergently.
柯林斜靠在椅背上,也没有再说话,只是继续用左手食指轻轻敲击着王座扶手。Clip clop the knockingreverberatesin the spaciouspalace, every as ifstrikesin the heart of person.
哒哒的敲击声在空旷的宫殿中回荡,每一下都仿佛敲打在人的心头上。
The fee/spentlowers the headbecause of the viscount, was recalling before come, obtains the information that fromsomehalfelfmerchantthere, the sufficientconfidencestartedto reduceunexpectedlyslowly.
费因子爵低着头,回想着自己来之前从某位半精灵商人那里得到的情报,原本充足的信心竟开始慢慢消减。Oneactuallyshort, but after actuallyappears the extremelylongwaiting, the guardgoesto returnfinally.
一番实则短暂但却显得极为漫长的等待后,侍卫终于去而复返。
When hecomes back, is actually a person.
只是他回来时,却还是一个人。„CountSir, marquisVincentsaid,is not willingto see the easternboundaryenvoy.”
“伯爵大人,文森特侯爵说,不愿见到东境使者。”„This......”Colinstopped the rap, both handsone, saidregrettably,„fee/spentbecause of the viscount, thisIdid not have the means.”
“这样啊……”柯林停下了敲击,双手一摊,遗憾地说道,“费因子爵,这我就没办法了。”
The fee/spentlowers the headbecause of the viscount, the corners of the mouthgo upslightly, as iffeltoneselfsaw throughColin'sdetailsfinally, the confidence of justdissipatingrestoresagain.
费因子爵低着头,嘴角微微上翘,似乎觉得自己终于看穿了柯林的底细,刚刚消散的信心再次恢复。Heraised the head, on the facehas exchanged the doubts , and sufferingfacial expression, askedto the guard: „MarquisSirhad saying that whyisn't willingto seeme?”
他抬起头来,脸上已经换上了疑惑且委屈的神情,对侍卫问道:“侯爵大人有说为什么不愿见我吗?”
The guardslooked atColinoneeyes, thenshakes the head saying: „No.”
侍卫看了柯林一眼,然后摇摇头道:“没有。”„PerhapsmarquisVincent is still beingashamedforownactions, is not willingto seeyou.”Colinopening the mouthanswered.
“或许文森特侯爵还在为自己的所作所为感到羞愧,才不愿见到你。”柯林开口解释道。
The fee/spentnodsbecause of the viscount, seemed likeletter/believedthisreason, butpersisted insaying: „ButCountSir, ImustseemarquisVincent, thisisDukeSt. Plossiconfessesmepersonally......”
费因子爵点点头,似乎是信了这个理由,但还是坚持道:“但是伯爵大人,我必须见到文森特侯爵,这是圣普洛斯公爵亲自交代我……”„Whywewill not first redeem the conditionto discuss,thenarrangesyouto meet?”Colinbeckoned with the handto break the fee/spentbecause of the viscount, withquitedomineeringlanguagegas channel/angrily said, „, ifredeemed the conditionto have no meeting of mindscontinually, Ifelt,youdo not needto seemarquisVincentagain.”
“我们为什么不先将赎回条件商议好,再安排你们见面呢?”柯林摆摆手打断了费因子爵,用颇为强势的语气道,“如果连赎回条件都谈不拢,那我觉得,你也没必要再见到文森特侯爵了。”
The fee/spentchangesbecause of the viscountcomplexion, as ifbyColin'simposing mannerfear, after hesitantmoment, finally the nodsaid:
费因子爵脸色微变,似乎被柯林的气势所慑,犹豫了片刻后,终于点头道:„Good, CountSir, thatmakesusfirstdiscuss that redeems the condition.”
“好吧,伯爵大人,那就让我们先来谈一谈赎回条件。”
