By narrow tall window of flat roof, the setting sun afterglow spreads to sprinkle the ground, reflects the dark-red stripe for the wall. 透过露台的狭窄高窗,夕阳余晖遍洒地面,为墙壁映上暗红色的条纹。 The entire kingdom can also see that the setting sun the place has been not much left, but Port of Clear Water is one of them. Hands down the heavy snow and cold wind by Months of Demons that cover is affected minimal, is unable to leave port besides the Blacksail fleet, the entire city still and equally was usually busy. 整个王国还能看到落日的地方已所剩无几,而碧水港便是其中之一。相传中被大雪和寒风笼罩的邪魔之月对此地影响微乎其微,除了黑帆舰队无法出港外,整个城市仍和平时一样繁忙。 But this harbor master, Garcia Wimbledon, is sitting before the square table under window, is reading the letter in hand earnestly. Her ash-grey hair was caught to wipe the golden color under the setting sun, the light and shade staggered face light shadow serves as contrast her edges and corners distinct facial features, unique and rich heroic spirit. 而这座港湾之都的主人,嘉西亚.温布顿,正坐在窗下的方桌前,认真地看着手中的信件。她的灰发在夕阳下被染上一抹金色,明暗交错的面部光影更衬托出她棱角分明的五官,独具韵味且富有英气。 Furion stood in her side already period of time. 法瑞恩站在她身边已经好一阵子了。 When this letter time needed has surpassed her normal reading credit, but Furion still chose calmly waited for that-- he is not willing to break this tranquility by himself. 尽管这封信所花费的时间已超过她正常的读信用时,但法瑞恩仍选择静静等待——他不愿由自己来打断这份宁静。 Finally, Garcia sighed gently, put down the letter. 最终,嘉西亚轻轻叹了口气,将信放下。 „Royal Father died.” “父王死了。” Furion startled, „what?” 法瑞恩怔了怔,“什么？” „My father, Erin Wimbledon, King of Greycastle, died.” “我的父亲,艾林.温布顿,灰堡之王,死了。” She little saying the words duplicate, he thinks, if usually such asked, she will only ignore. However doesn't she truly have to crack a joke? Did King die? 她很少会将说过的话重复一遍,他想,若平时自己这么问,她只会对此熟视无睹。不过她确实没有在开玩笑？国王死了？ „......” Furion opened mouth, wants to comfort her several, said actually turned into the inquiry, „how dead?” “……”法瑞恩张了张嘴,想安慰她几句,说出口却变成了询问,“怎么死的？” Is good and does not care about-- because of Garcia she is kingdom Third Princess and Port of Clear Water feudal lord and commander-in-chief of Blacksail fleet, does not need anybody to comfort, „believed saying that was my brother Gerald has killed the father, afterward was seized by personal guard. He has not committed suicide in fear of punishment, therefore raised the public trial by other hands and several ministers King, has been sentenced to the punishment of beheading.” 好在嘉西亚对此并不在意——她是王国三王女、碧水港领主、黑帆舰队的最高统帅,不需要任何人安慰,“信里说,是我哥哥戈隆杀了父亲,随后被亲卫擒住。他没有畏罪自杀,于是被国王之手及其他几位大臣提起公审,已判处斩首之刑。” „This is not normal,” Furion subconscious say/way. “这不正常,”法瑞恩下意识道。 „Naturally is not normal,” Garcia unemotionally saying that „my Elder Brother, although was quite stupid, but did not have to stupid bringing about own destruction. If nobody guides, he cannot make such matter.” “当然不正常,”嘉西亚面无表情说,“我那哥哥虽然比较笨,但还没蠢到自寻死路。如果没人引导,他做不出这样的事。” „Do some people frame him?” “有人陷害他？” „Makes me guess that......” Third Princess closes the eye, „some people of prepares the detail planning, has enticed him saying that probably is willing to help his high-rank-- to want the person to take into the Kingdom Capital inner courtyard, must some people arrange beforehand, including eradicating, exchanging and buying. But that is not Gerald excels, or he is disinclined to make these trivial matters. Remaining was simple, the person of arrangement plan deeply he trusts, finally was actually betraying him.” “让我猜猜……”三王女闭上眼睛,“大概有人布置好了详细计划,诱惑他说愿意助他上位——想要将人带进王城内院,就必须有人事先安排,包括根除、调换和收买。但那不是戈隆擅长的,或者说,他懒得做这些琐事。剩下的就简单了,布置计划的人深得他信任,却在最后背叛了他。” Furion shows neither approval nor disapproval, these after all guessed, process how important, the key is not the result. He believes that Your Highness Third Princess also thinks. 法瑞恩不置可否,这些终归是猜测,过程如何并不重要,关键是结果。他相信三王女殿下也是这么认为的。 Really, Garcia opens eyes to continue saying that „this person in First Prince there ten nine, has not had a brute force spatially, in the brain is growing the muscle, was played also normally runs around in circles. But......” spoke in here her tone to take some spunks, „my Second Brother's method was also too crude.” 果然,嘉西亚睁眼继续说道,“这种人在大王子那里没有十个也有九个,空有一身蛮力,脑子里都长着肌肉,被人耍得团团转也正常。只不过……”说到这儿她语气里带上了些许怒意,“我二哥的手段也太粗暴了。” „You meant, is Timothy Wimbledon does?” “您是说,是提费科.温布顿做的？” „Except for him, but also who so knew about Gerald? After this matter, most is favorable for whom?” The Garcia finger unconsciousness is striking tabletop, „the blind people can look simply! However the only Royal Father to his being partial, he does not need to achieve this step!” “除了他,还有谁对戈隆如此了解？此事过后,又对谁最有利？”嘉西亚手指无意识地敲打着桌面,“简直瞎子都能看出来！然而单凭父王对他的偏爱,他根本不必做到这一步！” Your highness in the vitality/angry, Furion realized, can make Third Princess reveal such manner to be rarely seen. It seems like although she has complained Wimbledon III eccentric, but does not hope eventually the father ends up to turn out so is out. 殿下在生气,法瑞恩意识到,能让三王女露出这样的神态并不多见。看来尽管她一直抱怨温布顿三世过于偏心,但终究不希望父亲落得如此下场。 This type feels Furion to understand more or less, in the respected family, the head of household wants the mountain that oversteps to feeling always such-- one of the later generation, not only awe and detests. If she said right, this matter is really the Second Prince behavior, then this action truly could be called cruelly. 这种感受法瑞恩或多或少能够理解,在大家族之中,家主给后辈的感觉总是这样——一座想要逾越的大山,既敬畏又憎恶。如果她说得没错,此事真是二王子所为,那么他这番举动确实称得上残暴了。 „But he...... Why can such do?” “可他……为什么要这么做？” „Because he is afraid me,” Garcia take a deep breath, seems controlling own mood, „he is afraid Blacksail.” “因为他害怕我,”嘉西亚深吸了口气,似乎在控制自己的情绪,“他害怕黑帆。” Sees Furion not to have answer, she then answered, „Timothy had the informer in Port of Clear Water, this was not strange, like me also in Golden Harvest City and Kingdom Capital have arranged the informer. Knew after existence of Blacksail fleet, can think that very much easily my next must make anything, Golden Harvest City has not raised possibly one to resist the Blacksail army. Therefore he has used the stupidest method, takes the thing that Gerald the bait obtains him to want.” 见到法瑞恩没有回答,她接着解释道,“提费科在碧水港有眼线,这不奇怪,就像我也在金穗城和王都布置了耳目一样。得知黑帆舰队的存在后,很容易能想到我下一步要做什么,金穗城没可能养出一支能对抗黑帆的军队。于是他用了最愚蠢的方法,将戈隆作为鱼饵来得到他想要的东西。” „You said, he does want the army?” “你是说,他想要军队？” „He wants the throne,” Garcia said that „after Gerald dies, he is the first position successor, in addition the father died, perhaps he is rushing to the Kingdom Capital road at this moment. So long as can become Wimbledon IV, he can not assigned limit assembles vassal and army.” Here her to shake the head, „such that however, such as I said that as son who the father most loved, he does not need so.” “他想要王位,”嘉西亚说,“戈隆死后,他就是第一顺位继承人,加上父亲已死,他此刻恐怕正在赶往王都的路上。只要能成为温布顿四世,他就能不受领地限制地调集封臣和军队。”说到这儿她摇摇头,“然而,就如我说的那样,身为父亲最宠爱的儿子,他本不必如此的。” „That was bad,” Furion worried said that „, if Second Prince coronated smoothly, announced struggle for the throne to finish, what to do ordering you to return to Kingdom Capital?” “那岂不是糟了,”法瑞恩担忧地说,“如果二王子顺利加冕,宣布争王令结束,命令你回王城怎么办？” Garcia disdains saying that „these step walks extremely straightforwardly, the father will be partial to him not to represent all ministers to support him, especially will plot to murder King action--, although Timothy will advance on it Gerald, under may also be able to deceive the common people in kingdom, he will want completely to grasp the Greycastle's authority, it is estimated that must spend a long time. Therefore......” she looks to Furion, „I must gradually change to plan.” 嘉西亚不屑道,“这一步走得太过直白,父亲偏爱他不代表所有大臣都会支持他,特别是谋害国王的举动——虽然提费科把它推到戈隆身上,可也就能糊弄下王国的平民百姓,他想要完全掌握灰堡的权柄,估计还要花费很长一段时间。所以……”她望向法瑞恩,“我得稍稍改变一下计划了。” Furion immediately kneeling on one knee evil ways: „Wish to dispatch for you.” 法瑞恩立刻单膝跪下道:“愿为您差遣。” Garcia stands up, arrives at the window, the back to Furion, after „he ascends the throne, definitely is meeting first copes with me, the method that however can use perhaps only then orders Joe Kohl, is southern region Duke exerts pressure to me. But the latter estimated that can pass with King newly, during whole nation mourning , not suitable dispatching troops uses as an excuse to shirk-- that old fox not to be always willing to do to lose money the business. Most convenes vassal, encircles to set the example in the Port of Clear Water border,” Third Princess paused, these actions will bring the unnecessary trouble to us slightly „, therefore, we will set sail tomorrow.” 嘉西亚站起身,走到窗边,背对着法瑞恩,“他登基后必然会第一时间来对付我,然而所能用到的手段恐怕只有命令乔伊.科尔,也就是南境公爵向我施压。而后者估计会拿国王新逝,举国哀悼期间不宜动兵作为借口来推脱——那老狐狸一向不愿意做亏本买卖。最多召集起封臣,围在碧水港边境上做做样子,”三王女稍稍顿了顿,“不过这些举动会给我们带来不必要的麻烦,所以,我们明天就起航。” „Sets sail? Your highness, you want......” “起航？殿下,您难道想要……” „Eagle City, because places the kingdom inland, is almost the city that the place does not garrison. Can arrive in Clear Spring Town through the Sanwan river branch, goes forward from here Eagle City only to require day of time. After Joey takes, entire southern region as for my control under. This is an interesting time difference, when he sits Throne, when wants to incite Joey Duke, actually discovery trim southern region became my domain, does not know that can be any expression.” “雄鹰城由于身处王国内地,几乎是座不设防的城市。通过三湾河支流能抵达清泉镇,由此前往雄鹰城只需要一天时间。将乔伊拿下后,整个南境都将至于我的掌控之下。这是一个有趣的时间差,当他坐上王座,想要指使乔伊公爵时,却发现整片南境都已成为我的地盘,不知会是什么表情。” „But, you also said that Wimbledon III just passed away, then--” “可是,您也说了,温布顿三世刚刚过世,如此一来——” „What's wrong, do I also need to shed tears first?” Garcia has turned around, falls into the sea horizon the setting sun to put on a purple-red fine gauze her whole body. Her facial features hidden enter the darkness, only then both eyes jump project the slight ray. That look firm like Rock, Furion thought that even if inside has the anger, some regretted, will not have the sadness. “怎么,我还需要先掉眼泪吗？”嘉西亚转过身,落入海平线的夕阳将她周身披上了层紫红色的轻纱。她的面容隐入黑暗,只有双眼迸射出细微的光芒。那眼神坚如磐石,法瑞恩心想,即使里面有愤怒,有惋惜,也绝不会有哀伤。 Sad does not suit the King. 哀伤不适合王者。 „No, you do not need,” he said earnestly. “不,您不需要,”他认真说道。 Garcia nods satisfied, „goes, calls my here fellow captains. Since Timothy is not willing to wait till for five years later, I will not disappoint him. After obtaining Eagle City, entire southern region will be independent.” 嘉西亚满意地点点头,“去吧,将各位舰长召集到我这儿来。既然提费科不愿意等到五年之后,我也不会让他失望。得到雄鹰城后,整个南境都将独立。” Are all these do not matter, he who Timothy does thinks, she can always discover one to suit oneself road from the unpredictable aspect, once decided, marches forward courageously. This is her charm is , is also follows reason hence. 这一切是不是提费科做的都无所谓,他想,她总是能从变幻莫测的局面中找出一条适合自己的路,并且一旦决定,就勇往直前。这正是她的魅力所在,也是自己追随至此的原因。 „As you bid, Your highness...... No,” Furion sinking sound should say, „queen Your Majesty.” “遵命,殿下……不,”法瑞恩沉声应道,“女王陛下。”
