Hasn't he sent people to notify ahead of time?” “这么快？他怎么也没有派人提前来报信呀？” Saying, her is walking in a hurry outward. 说着,她就匆匆往外走。 The stewards actually dissuade saying: 管家却劝阻道: „Madame, Saint Duke Chapman has not notified ahead of time, does not hope that you greet. After all you are pregnant in the body, waits here, Saint Duke Chapman should quickly to the lion roar fort.” “夫人,圣查普曼公爵之所以没有提前报信,就是不希望您去迎接呀。毕竟您有孕在身,还是在这里等吧,圣查普曼公爵应该快到狮吼堡了。” „I go to the castle entrance he.” Vera was saying then walks outward. “那我去城堡门口等他。”薇拉说着便往外走。 The stewards are helpless, must make the maidservant support by the arm Vera. 管家无奈,只得让侍女搀扶着薇拉。 The group have not arrived at the castle entrance, met Colin of return. 一行人还没到城堡门口,就遇见了归来的柯林。 Vera was also red immediately the eye socket, walks quickly several steps, such as the young swallow turns over to nest -like to jump in husband's arms. 薇拉顿时又红了眼眶,快走几步,如乳燕归巢般扑进丈夫的怀里。 Colin surrounds the wife carefully, does not dare to make an effort, mouth middle course: 柯林小心地环抱住妻子,没怎么敢用力,口中道: „We enter the room quickly, the outside wind is big.” “我们快进屋吧,外面风大。” Vera raised the head, the tears such as the pearl of broken line tumbles, sobs: 薇拉抬起头,泪水如断线的珍珠般滚落,呜咽道: „Father...... uncle's remains?” “父……叔叔的遗体呢？” Colin loves dearly helps the wife wipe off the tears, kissed her bright and clean forehead, said: 柯林心疼地帮妻子擦掉眼泪,又亲吻了她光洁的额头,道: „I hurry back at high speed, the Marquis Garcia coffin bier estimated that must wait for 2-3 talents to meet.” “我是快马加鞭赶回来的,加西亚侯爵的棺柩估计还要等个2-3天才会到。” Vera then nods, walks toward the castle under Colin's supporting by the arm. 薇拉这才点点头,在柯林的搀扶下往城堡走去。 „Marquis Garcia matter...... I am sorry.” Colin surrounds the wife to walk on the corridor, the tone is low and deep, „I know that he matter intention of regarding the west boundary withdrawing troops is guilty, once advised against his suicidal behavior outside Storm Fort, but has not thought......” “加西亚侯爵的事情……我很抱歉。”柯林环抱着妻子走在长廊上,语气低沉,“我知道他对于西境撤军的事情心怀愧疚,也曾在风暴要塞外劝阻了他的自杀行为,但没想到……” „This cannot blame you.” Vera according to Colin arms, „ actually when hearing news of withdrawal of troops, I expected that the father will perhaps not continue to live on dishonorably. He is too proud, is too lonely, shouldered too many...... “这個不能怪你。”薇拉依在柯林怀里,“其实在听到撤军的消息时,我就预料到父亲恐怕不会继续苟活下去了。他太骄傲,太孤单,也背负了太多…… Moreover, I felt more and more, initially the father adopted this type, although effective when actually especially extreme strategy, has prepared for by that the body makes reparations, even, this perhaps is the result that he wants, because I have felt, the father he...... has the serious self-destruction tendency...... ” 而且,我越来越觉得,当初父亲采取这种虽然有效但却格外极端的策略时,是不是已经做好了以身赎罪的准备,甚至,这或许就是他想要的结果,因为我一直都觉得,父亲他……有严重的自毁倾向……” „Does self-destruction favor?” Colin surprise looks at wife's profile. “自毁倾向？”柯林诧异地看着妻子的侧脸。 „ Yes. Since I record events, has not seen the father truly happily has smiled, others thought that his natural disposition is arrogant, is not easy to be together, but where I actually learned from the grandmother, the father he is not this. “是的。自从我记事起,就没怎么见过父亲真正开心的笑过,别人都觉得他本性孤傲,不易相处,但我却从祖母哪里得知,父亲他并不一直都是这样的。 The childhood father was very lively open, even could be called stubbornly disobedient, was a mischievous child who made the grandmother have a headache about. ” 小时候的父亲是很活泼开朗的,甚至称得上顽劣,是个令祖母头疼的调皮孩子。” „Right?” Colin blinks, somewhat is very accidental/surprised, „how that will Marquis Garcia turn into afterward such quietly......?” “是吗？”柯林眨了眨眼,很有些意外,“那加西亚侯爵怎么会变成后来那样……沉默寡言？” „I have asked the old person in clan, they said the father , since going to the vault of heaven icefield, changed individual thoroughly.” “我问过族中的老人,他们都说父亲自从去了苍穹冰原之后,就彻底变了个人。” „Therefore was the war changed him?” “所以是战争改变了他？” „Has the possibility.” Vera pushed to Colin's arms the body , said that „, but I feel incessantly so......” “有可能。”薇拉将身体向柯林的怀抱中挤了挤,又道,“但我却觉得不止如此……” „? What is your guess?” “哦？那你的猜测是什么？” „I had once asked father's news about mother......” “我曾问过父亲关于母亲的消息……” Colin brow selects, the curiosity comes up immediately: „That did Marquis Garcia tell you?” 柯林眉头一挑,好奇心立刻上来了:“那加西亚侯爵告诉你了吗？” Vera shakes the head, said: „Father had not said that but said that he is unfair to mother...... . Moreover, he said at that time this saying time, I can feel his pain and guilt clearly, even in that moment, I thought that he wants dead......” 薇拉摇摇头,道:“父亲没有说,只是说他对不起母亲……而且,当时他说这话的时候,我能清晰地感受到他的痛苦和愧疚,甚至在那一刻,我觉得他很想死……” „Therefore you thought that he has the self-destruction to favor......” “所以你才觉得他有自毁倾向……” „ Yes. Moreover, I see father's some experiences on vault of heaven icefield. It is said that he the performance in battlefield, is not only heroic, even can be called is crazy! “是的。而且,我了解过父亲在苍穹冰原上的一些经历。据说他在战场上的表现,已经不仅仅是英勇了,甚至称得上是疯狂！ He does not treasure oneself life, each fight charges in most front row...... ” 他毫不顾惜自己的性命,每一场战斗都冲锋在最前列……” This point Colin has experienced actually with own eyes. 这一点柯林倒是亲眼见识过。 Perhaps Marquis Garcia can ride in the army to have such lofty prestige black, depended is the spirit that such fierce does not fear. 或许加西亚侯爵能够在黑骑军中拥有这样崇高的威望,靠的便是这样悍不畏死的精神吧。 Looking at it like this, somewhat is truly strange. 这样看来,确实有些奇怪。 As the St. Hilde family direct descendant, Marquis Garcia does not need to sacrifice the life to fight with all might in the battlefield like this. 作为圣希尔德家族嫡系,加西亚侯爵本不需要这样豁出性命在战场上拼杀。 Perhaps is really because that Vera mother who makes Marquis Garcia make every effort to keep secret, lets him from a stubbornly disobedient aristocrat youngster, transformed the crazy soldier in battlefield. 或许真的是因为那个让加西亚侯爵讳莫如深的薇拉母亲,才让他从一个顽劣的贵族少年,转变成了沙场上的狂战士。 However, as a result of Marquis Garcia such performance, had this unprecedented invincible black to ride the army. 不过,也正是由于加西亚侯爵这样的表现,才有了这支一往无前战无不胜的黑骑军。 „You feel the self-destruction tendency of Marquis Garcia, because of your mother?” “你觉得加西亚侯爵的自毁倾向,是因为你的母亲？” „Yes.” In Vera eyes appears thick losing, „was only between the father and mother exactly had anything, I will never know......” “是的。”薇拉眼中浮现出浓浓的失落,“只是父亲和母亲之间到底发生了什么,我恐怕永远也不会知道了……”
