In the morning, under a piece of quiet sunlight, shadow ripples on the ground a layer upon layer. 清晨,一片静谧的阳光下,一层层阴影在地上荡漾。 In the vast ancient giant palace, a man body rides the white horse, walks slowly. 在浩大古老的巨大宫殿中,一个男人身骑白马,从中缓缓走去。 On him is throwing over a red cloak, blue black skin armor is seemingly artistic and fine, a handsome face lifts slightly, is looking straight ahead the scenery of distant place. 他身上披着一层红色的披风,一身深黑色的皮甲看上去美观而精致,一张英俊的脸庞微微抬起,直视着远处的风景。 „On this day the air/Qi, actually slowly changed hot.” “这天气,倒是慢慢变热了些。” Is feeling the warm sunlight, on his face shows the smile, the mood was also evidently better. 感受着外界的温暖阳光,他脸上露出微笑,看样子心情也更愉快了些。 „Did, what news recently in the city have?” “凯加,最近城里有什么消息么？” He is riding a horse leads the way slowly, at the same time looks a middle-aged man opens the mouth to ask. 他骑着马慢慢前行,一边看着身旁的一个中年男子开口问道。 That is seems like not the handsome middle-aged man, although the appearance is not outstanding, but a face actually seems very firm and resolute, a pair of brown eye pupil is profound, one type can trust the feeling and depending upon. 那是个看上去并不英俊的中年男人,虽然容貌并不出众,但一张脸庞却显得十分坚毅,一双褐色的眼眸深邃,给人一种可以信赖与依靠的感觉。 „Your highness entered these days of royal palace, in the city no important matter happened, noteworthy, was some aristocrats in city died only strangely, the dead shape was very cruel, has the evil race aura.” “殿下进入王宫的这几天,城里没什么大事发生,唯一值得注意的,便是城中的一些贵族离奇死去,死状十分残忍,带着邪恶种族的气息。” „Devils?” Gru frowns, suddenly as if remembered anything. “魔鬼们么？”格鲁尔皱起眉头,一时间似乎想起了什么。 As Prince Tamm, is hiding some evil lifeform things to own country, he has also detected and understood somewhat. 作为塔姆鲁王子,对自己国家中隐藏着一些邪恶生物这种事情,他多多少少也有所察觉与了解。 However, although understood, but regarding this situation, he is also incapable of changing. 不过,尽管了解,但对于这种情况,他也无力改变。 Although the strength of royal family is strong, but is not fearless, facing huge strength that the aristocrat feudal lord composes layer upon layer, must regress unavoidably. 王室的力量虽然强大,但到底也不是无所畏惧,面对层层贵族领主组成的庞大力量,也不免要退步。 These evil lifeform hide in the aristocrat, often itself is the inheritance glorious aristocrat transforms, is not only one of the kingdom strength compositions, had saved the innumerable year of personal connections and power and influence in the past. 那些邪恶生物隐藏在贵族之中,往往本身便是传承悠久的贵族转化而成,不仅是王国力量的组成之一,更拥有过去积攒无数年的人脉与权势。 Before these exist has not infringed the self-interest explicitly, even if the king, will not easily be determined to have the solution these, not to mention Gru this prince. 在这些存在没有明确损害到自身利益之前,哪怕是国王,也不会轻易下定决心将这些存在解决,更不用说格鲁尔这位王子。 However, usually can tolerate is a matter, actually does not represent these evil lifeform to start to clutch chaotic, particularly starts when to the aristocrat, but can also tolerate similarly. 不过,平时能够容忍是一回事,却并不代表着这些邪恶生物开始揪起混乱,尤其是对贵族下手时,还能够同样容忍。 Therefore, this moment Gru frowns, the complexion instantaneously is becoming very unattractive: „Dying what people are?” 因而,此刻格鲁尔皱起了眉头,脸色在瞬间变得很不好看:“死的都是些什么人？” „Is some young aristocrats, has from the south Caro zone migration , under there are supported the main hall starts” side, says slowly, later as if remembered anything, the somewhat scruple opens the mouth said: „Moreover, yesterday evening, Bakulu family's eldest son, that Sir Sim also died outside, the body covered entirely several sword marks, was struck to kill with a Great Knight evidently.” “都是些小贵族,其中既有从南方卡罗区域迁移来的,也有原本支撑大殿下手下的・・・”身旁,凯加慢慢开口说道,随后似乎想起了什么,有些迟疑的开口说道:“另外,在昨天晚上,巴库鲁家族的长子,那位希姆爵士也死在了外面,身上布满了好几道剑痕,看样子是被人以一名大骑士击杀的。” „Should be the hand under Yasuo.” Gru nods: „Bakulu family's matter, I know, the relations of Yasuo with his elder brother is not too good from the urination, multi- Baron Lu loves the eldest son since childhood, even makes to make Yasuo replace the matter that the eldest son ginseng/partake stands to come.” “应该是亚索下的手了。”格鲁尔点了点头:“巴库鲁家族的事,我知道一些,亚索与他兄长的关系自小便不算太好,多鲁男爵从小宠爱长子,甚至做出让亚索顶替长子参站的事来。” „Yasuo meets envious hatred his elder brother, even starts to get rid of him, is not strange.” “亚索会嫉恨他的兄长,甚至下手干掉他,也一点都不奇怪。” „How does that this matter process?” Armor in addition has turned around, opens the mouth to ask. “那这件事怎么处理？”铠加转过身,开口问道。 „Bakulu family's family affairs, along with him.” Gru said, has not cared to this matter: „Sentence to accidentally/surprisingly the death of Sir Sim, in the name of my, letting Yasuo becomes Bakulu family's successor.” “巴库鲁家族的家事,就随他吧。”格鲁尔说道,对这件事并没有太在意:“将希姆爵士的死判为意外,以我的名义,让亚索成为巴库鲁家族的继承人。” „Wait, has multi- Baron Lu been missing now?” “等等,多鲁男爵现在已经失踪了是么？” The words told only half, he suddenly thinks anything, opened the mouth to pursue asks. 话说到一半,他突然想起来了什么,开口追问道。 „Yes.” Recalled, later nods: „Knight report/give report who according to the south comes back, has been missing in the battlefield, perhaps now had died in battle” “是的。”凯加回忆了一下,随后点点头:“据南方回来的骑士禀报,已经失踪在了战场上,恐怕现在已经阵亡了・・・” „Since this” hesitated slightly a meeting, Gru recovered again , to continue saying: „That, makes Yasuo inherit the title of multi- Baron Lu simply directly, inherits Bakulu family's territory and power.” “既然这样・・・”略微沉吟了一会,格鲁尔再次回过神来,继续说道:“那就干脆一点吧,直接让亚索继承多鲁男爵的爵位,继承巴库鲁家族的领地与权力。” „I remember, before my in the south mountainous area, a territory?” “我记得,之前我的在南边的山区,还有一块领地吧？” He looks that asked. 他看着凯加问道。 „Yes.” Nods: „That was your paternal aunt, the Meina silk princess grows up in you delivered your coming of age that year.” “是的。”凯加点点头:“那是您的姑姑,美娜丝公主在您成年那一年送你的成年礼。” „Gives Yasuo that territory, treats as me to give his conferring rank and title ritual.” The Gru big hand wields, directly delivered that territory. “把那块领地送给亚索,当做我给他的册封礼。”格鲁尔大手一挥,直接将那块领地送了出去。 This type exceptionally generous, made nearby some surprise, although has not said anything, but in the heart was extremely accidental/surprised. 这种异常的慷慨,令一旁的凯加都有些诧异,虽然没说什么,但心中还是极为意外。 Be responsible for Gru Prince many years, regarding this prince, understood. 负责格鲁尔王子多年,对于这一位王子,凯加十分了解。 This is always one does not see the rabbit not to scatter the eagle the lord, is very freely natural in other aspects, but in fundamental territory, is always very parsimonious. 这向来是一个不见兔子不撒鹰的主,尽管在其他方面十分大方,但在根本的领地这一块,却向来十分吝啬。 Reason that so, the territory size of also with the Gru hand in running is related. 之所以会如此,也与格鲁尔手上掌管的领土大小有关。 Although the area of Tamm kingdom is broad enough, but overwhelming majority regions, are the length and breadth unmanned bleak region, in which land is unworthy radically how much money, even if grants, without many people are willing to develop. 塔姆鲁王国的面积虽然足够宽广,但其中绝大部分地域,都是广袤无人的荒凉地域,其中的土地根本不值多少钱,哪怕赏赐下去,也没有多少人愿意去开拓。 Only has these population many, land that the land basic development completes, is the good territory. 唯有那些人口诸多,土地基本开拓完成的土地,才是上好的领土。 But in these good territories, after several hundred years slowly grants to enfeoff, belongs to the territory of royal family not to remain many, can be controlled by Gru this prince, were naturally less. 而在这些上好领土之中,经过数百年的慢慢赐予分封,属于王室的领土本就不剩多少,能够被格鲁尔这位王子掌控的,自然就更少了。 In fact, if not Gru from slightly displays the splendid military talent, then leads the army to go on a punitive expedition against since grown everywhere, obtains many territory population in this process, perhaps in this moment hand does not have many places. 事实上,若非格鲁尔自小表现出出色的军事才华,自成年起便率领军队四处征伐,在这个过程中获得不少领土人口,恐怕此刻手上也没有多少地方。 So is not on hand ample, where naturally also impossible natural to go, like this, directly on a situation in bestowing next bulk territory, is rare. 手头如此不宽裕,自然也就不可能大方到哪去,如同这一次这样,直接就赐下一大块领地的情况,更是少见。 „It seems like, your highness attaches great importance to that Yasuo knight very” “看来,殿下对那位亚索骑士十分重视啊・・・” Looks at Gru, in heart is raising this idea, even if firm and resolute, at this moment also raises envies. 望着身旁的格鲁尔,凯加心中升起这个想法,纵使性格坚毅,此刻也不由升起些羡慕。 Compares Adil, he has served for many years for Gru, assisting the opposite party to make many merits, but until now, although has become high-ranking, but still did not have one to let the territory that the entire family takes shelter. 相比起阿帝尔,他已经为格鲁尔服务多年,辅助过对方做出过不少功绩,但到现在为止,尽管已经成为显贵,但仍然没有一块可以让整个家族容身的领地。 Thinks of here, in his heart sighed one lightly, later continued to go forward, kept up with the Gru footsteps. 想到这里,他心中轻叹一声,随后才继续上前,跟上了格鲁尔的脚步。 This side, Gru just issued the order, passed after for quite a while, that side Adil receives the message. 这一边,格鲁尔刚刚发出命令,足足过了大半天后,阿帝尔那边才收到消息。 „What? Has Sim died?” “什么？希姆已经死了？” Sits in the garden, looks correspondence that at present Gru sends people to send, Adil some god. 坐在庭院之中,看着眼前格鲁尔派人送来的书信,阿帝尔有些愣神。 The present correspondence, is Gru Walter sends people to send, has Gru some arrangements to Adil. 眼前的书信,是格鲁尔特地派人送来的,其中带着格鲁尔对阿帝尔的一些安排。 In the correspondence, Gru also mentioned faintly Sim's dying, and suggested Adil, will have uncovered this matter, obviously had recognized that was Adil does. 在书信中,格鲁尔还隐隐提到了希姆的死去,并暗示阿帝尔,会将这件事情揭过,显然已经认定是阿帝尔做下的了。 Facing this fact, Adil suddenly feels somewhat undeserved. 面对这种事实,阿帝尔却突然觉得有些冤枉。 Has entered that devil tavern, understood after Sim's status, he indeed thinks that asks an opportunity to solve Sim. 进入过那件恶魔酒馆,了解到希姆的身份之后,他的确想到找个机会将希姆解决。 However, although in heart raising murderous intention, but he indeed has not begun, for these days the time simply had not gone out. Sim's death, basic has nothing to do with him. 但是,尽管心中升起杀机,但他的确还没有动手,这几天时间根本没有出门。希姆的死,根本与他无关。 In other words, this moment Adil was a scapegoat to others. 换句话说,此刻阿帝尔算是给其他人背锅了。 „Who is?” Puts down the correspondence in hand, sets out to look to the distant place, in the Adil heart appears this thought. “是谁？”将手中的书信放下,起身望向远处,阿帝尔心中浮现出这一个念头。 Sim refuses stubbornly dead, he does not care. He cares, is he is a scapegoat this fact for others, the opposite party kills Sim's motive to be. 希姆死不死,他并不在意。他在意的,是他为别人背锅这个事实,还有对方杀希姆的动机所在。 „Sim's real status, is the vampire that has not transformed completely, theoretically, the dim sacrificial offering in city, Great Knight in city, these evil lifeform may start.” “希姆的真实身份,是一头还没完全转化的吸血鬼,理论上来讲,城中的昏暗祭祀,城中的大骑士,还有那些邪恶生物都有可能下手。” Thinks the content in correspondence, Adil is frowning: „Specific situation, only then sees the corpse , after personally can judge.” 想着书信中的内容,阿帝尔皱起眉头:“具体的情况,只有亲自看见尸体后才能判断了。” In the heart is thinking this thought that outside the room, rapid sound of footsteps resounds slowly. 心中想着这个念头,在屋外,一阵急促脚步声慢慢响起。 Adil looks up, happen to sees, outside room, the steward complexion of his manor anxious walks from out of the door, on this moment serious face full is anxious. 阿帝尔抬头望去,正好看见,在屋外,他这座庄园的管家正面色焦急的从门外走来,此刻一张原本严肃的脸庞上满是焦急。 „What's wrong?” Looks at the steward, Adil is gaining ground, looks that he opens the mouth to ask, feels some doubts about his anxious performance. “怎么了？”望着管家,阿帝尔抬起头,看着他开口问道,对他这幅焦急的表现感到有些疑惑。 „Sir, we previously sent with the public security officer who bandit group negotiated, was killed by that group of bandit group!” “大人,我们此前派去与强盗团交涉的治安官,被那伙强盗团杀了！” Is looking at Adil, the steward footsteps in a hurry, at this moment the complexion looks extremely anxious, so says. 望着阿帝尔,管家脚步匆匆,这一刻脸色看上去极为焦急,如此开口说道。 „What?” Adil stares immediately. “什么？”阿帝尔顿时一愣。 …… ……
