Ancient Silver Castle was repaired and maintained thoroughly, the bush and flower-bed experienced the appropriate trim, the classical column and arcade with a history of several hundred years were decorated on the bright garland, diagrams Empire crest cloth curtain from the castle two buildings to hang falls to the ground, but in the large-scale garden before Lord fort, has been ready for the location that the evening banquet prepares- 古老的白银堡被彻底修整,灌木和花坛经历了妥帖的修剪,拥有数百年历史的古典立柱和拱廊被装饰上了鲜艳的花环,绘有帝国徽记的布幔从城堡二楼一直垂坠至地面,而在主堡前的大型庭院中,为晚间宴会准备的场地已经就绪- The coronation ceremony later evening banquet will be divided into the inside and outside two parts, the castle Lord hall to be held the place of internal banquet, has a more gorgeous decoration and stricter etiquette standard, the castle positive/direct garden is the exterior banquet, will invite all Royal Capital aristocrats and merchants to represent, Church and public representatives participates. 加冕仪式之后的晚宴将分为内外两个部分,城堡主厅为举行内部宴会的场所,有着更华美的装饰和更严格的礼仪规范,城堡正面的庭院则是外部宴会,将邀请所有的王都贵族、商人代表、教会和市民代表们参加。 Obviously, Rebecca likes garden here lively atmosphere. 显然,瑞贝卡更喜欢庭院这里热热闹闹的氛围。 This girl was forced to exchange for attending the regular situation palace long skirt, but the elegant skirt is unable to prevent her the heart of jump, she flower-bed and fountain before between Silver Castle is upon the jump, appears to here all curious extremely- comes previous time time, her status or Southern Region goes down in the world the young aristocrat, there is a Ancestor entire journey to bring up the rear, does not dare to run around in Silver Castle, even looked everywhere is cautious, but...... may no one be able to control her today. 这姑娘被强制换上了用于出席正规场合的宫廷长裙,但雍容华贵的裙子也无法阻挡她那颗跳跃的心,她在白银堡前的花坛和喷泉之间跑来跑去,对这里的一切都显得好奇万分-上一次来的时候,她的身份还是南境的落魄小贵族,又有老祖宗全程压阵,在白银堡里根本不敢到处乱跑,甚至四处多看一眼都要小心翼翼,但今天……可没人能管得了她了。 At least besides two elders, in this castle may no one dare to manage her. 至少除了两位长辈之外,这城堡里可没人敢管她了。 „The northern bush is really different from South yeah, this thing in our that side may rare- is very difficult to support,” Rebecca squats before the flower-bed, is clutching around the flower-bed bush branches and leaves while non-stop with nearby maid baba, „recent institute's that side Druid are studying the transplant issue of north-south plant, do they want to toss about more cold resistant crops...... the agronomy group you to know?” “北方的灌木真跟南方不一样哎,这东西在我们那边可少见了-特别难养活,”瑞贝卡蹲在花坛前,一边揪着花坛周围的灌木枝叶一边跟旁边的女仆baba个不停,“最近学院那边的德鲁伊们就在研究南北植物的移植问题,他们想折腾出更加抗寒的农作物……农学小组你知道么？” Follows in Rebecca maid is 20-year-old golden hair girl, the latter is at this moment resigned-looking, brought nervous to look at the surroundings, bends the waist is reminding cautiously: „Your highness...... please do not leave these vegetation is too near, your skirt......” 跟在瑞贝卡身旁的女仆是个20多岁的金发姑娘,后者此刻一脸无奈,又带着一丝紧张看了看周围,弯下腰小心翼翼地提醒着:“殿下……请不要离这些草木太近,您的裙子……” „Hi, all right, puts on any case today for day,” Rebecca is beckoning with the hand, „compared with this, you will make the sentry post with the leaf?” “嗨,没事,反正就穿今天一天,”瑞贝卡摆着手,“比起这个,你会用叶子做哨么？” golden hair maid gawked, reveals awkward look: „...... Your highness, very sorry, I cannot.” 金发女仆愣了一下,露出为难的模样:“……殿下,非常抱歉,我不会。” „Your this is not good, might as well Betty...... said, Betty?” Rebecca remembers small maid that followed oneself to come together finally, she raised the head curiously is seeking, looks while speaks thoughtlessly the inquiry, „yeah, did you see Betty?” “你这就不行了,还不如贝蒂呢……说起来,贝蒂呢？”瑞贝卡终于想起了跟着自己一起过来的小女仆,她好奇地抬头四下寻找着,一边找一边随口询问,“哎,你看见贝蒂了么？” maid makes an effort to follow the mentality of Your Highness Princess, the one who responded to say conscious to the opposite party was that seems a little dull small maid: „The Betty words...... I noticed a moment ago she is in a daze by the fountain.” 女仆使劲跟着公主殿下的思路,反应了一下才意识到对方说的是那个看起来有点呆的小女仆:“贝蒂的话……我刚才看到她在喷泉旁发呆。” At the same time replied, maid could not have borne exude the whisper at heart, she cannot understand how completely that seems like brain not easy-to-use small maid to be selected as imperial palace head maid, position even are high a head- that dull little girl in palace etiquette basic on don't understand a word, moreover responded that slow anxious, she even seems like for the first time situations of arriving at so many people, do not know that this/should stand where, no one greeted in flower-bed or fountain and so on place was in a daze...... 一边回答,女仆心里还忍不住泛起嘀咕,她完全不能理解那个看起来脑子不好使的小女仆是怎么能被选为内廷女仆长的,职位甚至比自己还高一头-那个呆呆的小姑娘在宫廷礼仪方面根本就一窍不通,而且反应慢的让人担忧,她甚至好像是第一次来到这么多人的场合,根本不知道该站在什么地方,没人招呼的时候就在花坛或喷泉之类的地方发呆…… But is such response slow little girl, deeply by the affection of new imperial family, this really will be been unexpectedly unreadable. 但就是这么个反应迟钝的小姑娘,竟然会深受新皇室的喜爱,这实在让人难以理解。 Her here was just puzzled to half, saw that Rebecca extended the neck to look at one in the direction of fountain, the next action of Your Highness Princess made this maid almost shy Rebecca lifted the hand to wield, was a bright eye-catching fireball flies the sky...... 她这里刚困惑到一半,就看到瑞贝卡伸着脖子朝喷泉的方向看了一眼,公主殿下的下一个举动让这位女仆差点惊跳起来-瑞贝卡抬手一挥,就是个明亮夺目的火球飞上天空…… „Your highness! Your this......” “殿下！您这……” In the golden hair maid screams, the bright fireball in garden sky blasting open, the magic brilliance had formed one skewer of clear neat letters in the midair: Betty comes. 在金发女仆的惊呼声中,明亮的火球已经在庭院上空炸裂,魔法光焰在半空形成了一串清晰工整的字母:贝蒂过来一下。 In a meeting, in the maid dumbfounded gaze, that small maid never the distant place named Betty runs over fast, and makes an effort to bow in front of Rebecca: „Did young lady you call me?” 没过一会,在女仆目瞪口呆的注视中,那个叫贝蒂的小女仆飞快地从不远处跑了过来,并在瑞贝卡面前使劲一鞠躬:“小姐您叫我？” golden hair maid wants to remind this new head maid, now to the name of Rebecca should be your highness rather than „young lady”, but present two girl have no longer responded her and Betty squat together on the ground, they clutched several leaves from the bush, exchanged the leaf sentry post, your my is blowing, smiles one piece laughing...... 金发女仆想要提醒这位新任的女仆长,现在对瑞贝卡的称呼应该是殿下而非“小姐”,但眼前的两个姑娘已经不再搭理她了-瑞贝卡和贝蒂一块蹲在地上,俩人从灌木上揪了好几片叶子,折成了叶子哨,你一下我一下地吹着,嘻嘻哈哈地笑成一片…… Gawain when saw that one group of fireballs blasted out one skewer of letters to guess correctly whose masterpiece this was, he brought Amber to look following the position that the fireball flew, really found was squatting with Betty together on the ground blows Rebecca of leaf, stood a whole face not to handle and wear golden hair girl of maidservant clothing by them. 高文在看到一团火球炸开成一串字母的时候就猜到了这是谁的杰作,他带着琥珀循着火球飞起的方位找去,果然找到了正和贝蒂一起蹲在地上吹叶子的瑞贝卡,在她们旁边则还站着一个满脸无措、身穿侍女服饰的金发姑娘。 „Your majesty,” is at the vacant condition maid to see Gawain to appear, immediately not handles, and nervous gets up, „your highness she......” “陛下,”正处于茫然状态的女仆看到高文出现,顿时更加无措且紧张起来,“殿下她……” She finishes barely the words, Rebecca has called out in alarm to jump: „Wā! Lord Ancestor came!” 她话音未落,瑞贝卡已经惊呼着跳起来:“哇！祖先大人来了！” Betty is half beat behind, following stood: „Lord......, your majesty.” 贝蒂则慢了半拍,也跟着站了起来:“老爷……啊,陛下。” This always responds that slow girl remembered correct name unexpectedly promptly-, although she called for the first time wrong. 这个总是反应迟钝的姑娘竟然及时想起了正确的称呼-虽然她第一次还是叫错了。 „Doesn't matter, relaxes today well.” Gawain saw to change the palace long skirt at present, the makings can actually be borne the mood be good by clothing binding Rebecca, he beckons with the hand, „just do not throw the fireball as far as possible, after at nightfall, will have mage to float the inspection sky over castle, besides the mana fireworks of specific region, the fireball that your threw suddenly easy to explode.” “没关系,今天好好放松一下吧。”高文看到眼前换上了宫廷长裙,气质却丝毫不受服饰束缚的瑞贝卡就忍不住心情良好起来,他摆了摆手,“只不过尽量别扔火球了,入夜之后会有法师在城堡上空漂浮巡视,除了特定区域的魔力焰火之外,你这样突然扔出来的火球容易把人炸下来。” „, Knew......” “哦,知道了……” Gawain nods with a smile, looks to side that helplessness, golden hair girl of vacant delay: „Are you in Silver Castle original maid?” 高文笑着点了点头,又看向旁边那个手足无措,茫然呆滞的金发姑娘:“你是白银堡里原本的女仆吧？” golden hair girl hurries to lower the head: „Yes, your majesty.” 金发姑娘赶紧低下头:“是的,陛下。” „Relaxes, adapts, if you are willing to continue for the new imperial family potency, should be familiar with this custom quite few life.” “放松点,适应一下吧,如果你愿意继续为新皇室效力的话,应该习惯这种规矩比较少的生活。” „...... Is, your majesty.” “……是,陛下。” Gawain un left here on the preparation, but he just about to takes a step to be stopped by calling out by Rebecca: „Right, Lord Ancestor, heard that the Victoria Duchess side that black hair maid main body is a Black Dragon ?” 高文嗯了一声就准备离开这里,但他刚要迈步就被瑞贝卡叫住:“对了对了,祖先大人,听说维多利亚女公爵身边那个黑发女仆的本体是一头黑龙,是真的么？” „Whom were you listen to say?” Gawain stops the footsteps, a little accidentally/surprisingly looks at Rebecca, „this news, although does not have the security......, but should not public?” “你是听谁说的？”高文停下脚步,有点意外地看着瑞贝卡,“这个消息虽然没保密……但应该也没公开吧？” „I listened to Philip saying that many soldiers are discussing.” “我听菲利普说的,还有好些士兵在谈论呢。” „...... Also is, the same day eyewitness were many,” Gawain nods, „right, she called Maggie, was Black Dragon, but she had no intention to spread everywhere. How were you interested in this suddenly?” “……也是,当天的目击者很多,”高文点点头,“没错,她叫玛姬,是黑龙,但她本人并无意四处传扬。你怎么突然对这个感兴趣了？” „, I am a little curious, really has the dragon to live together with Human Race yeah......” Rebecca is blinking the eye, the appearance of whole face curious inquisition, „heard that Dragon race magic is very powerful, you said that Maggie also does meet Dragon Language Magic?” “啊,我就是有点好奇,竟然有龙跟人类生活在一起哎……”瑞贝卡眨巴着眼睛,满脸好奇探究的神采,“听说龙族的魔法很强大,您说玛姬也会龙语魔法么？” „This did not say, perhaps meeting, but as if compared normal Great Dragon to be weaker,” Gawain spoke thoughtlessly, reminded, „back discussed these is not good, you can ask her face to face, but must pay attention to the politeness, her Great Dragon bloodline seemed like some ‚issue’, if she is not willing saying that do not offend.” “这个不好说,或许会,但似乎比正常的巨龙要弱一些,”高文随口说着,紧接着提醒道,“背后谈论这些不好,你可以当面去问问她,但要注意礼貌,她的巨龙血统似乎有些‘问题’,如果她不愿意说,你不要过于冒犯。” Rebecca makes an effort to nod, the whole face is earnest: „You feel relieved you to be able rest assured that I may be polite!” 瑞贝卡使劲点着头,满脸认真:“您放心您放心,我可礼貌了！” To be honest, Gawain also somewhat suspected in this girl mouth „may be polite” somewhat the credibility, after all according to Hetty, the during that time Rebecca worst two schoolworks are the etiquette and history, at that time in this girl educational expenditure had about one-third to spend in the medical expenses of these two class teachers, but changes mind thinks, Rebecca is only the etiquette class does not attain a designated standard, „politeness” should not have the issue...... 说实话,高文还真有点怀疑这姑娘口中的“可礼貌了”到底有几分可信度,毕竟据赫蒂所说,当年瑞贝卡最差的两门功课就是礼仪和历史,当时这姑娘的教育经费里有将近三分之一都花在了这两课老师的医药费上,但转念一想,瑞贝卡只是礼仪课不达标,“礼貌”应该还是没问题的…… After all in even now aristocrat eyes „ritual” and populace „politeness” to a certain extent has exhibited the divided state, Rebecca is saw that the old civilians will lower the head girl that greeted, but this amiable and humble in the orthodox etiquette standard was „impolite dull-witted” performance...... 毕竟时至今日贵族眼中的“礼”和大众的“礼貌”在某种程度上已经呈现分裂状态,瑞贝卡是个见到比自己年长的平民都会低头打招呼的姑娘,可她这份平易和谦逊在正统的礼仪规范里就是“无礼愚钝”的表现…… Upper class „etiquette standard” and living orders of lower-level populace present the serious separate, this is actually the social structure presents the imbalance to a certain extent, various social levels has the contradictory omen and characteristics, from this point, Rebecca „etiquette” a class not pass a test good deed, this makes her not need to adapt actually then accepts many equal ideas that Gawain instilled into...... 上层社会的“礼仪规范”和下层大众的生活秩序出现严重割裂,这在某种程度上其实就是社会结构出现失衡,社会各层产生矛盾的先兆和特征,从这一点看,瑞贝卡的“礼仪”课不及格倒是一件好事,这让她无需适应便接受了高文灌输的很多平等理念…… perhaps Gawain should rejoice, rejoiced Rebecca in childhood the family financial difficulty, during that time Viscount Cecil and Hetty cannot to this girl please civil and military complete in both etiquette teacher, otherwise he education to Rebecca must have another headache now. 或许高文应该庆幸,庆幸瑞贝卡小时候家族财政困难,以至于当年的塞西尔子爵和赫蒂没能给这姑娘请个文武双全的礼仪老师,否则他现在对瑞贝卡的教育就要有另外一层的头疼了。 Has a smile, Gawain brought Amber to cross the flower-bed in garden, on moving toward open area road, he heard resounding whistling sound to transmit from the side. 带着一丝微笑,高文带着琥珀越过了庭院里的花坛,在走向空地的路上,他听到一声响亮的哨声从身旁传来。 He leans slightly excessively, saw that Amber is pinching the leaf blade that is folding, the latter approaches the lip the leaf blade, caused to blow fiercely, the whistling sound was resounding. 他微微侧过头,看到琥珀正捏着一枚折起来的叶片,后者把叶片凑近嘴唇,又使劲吹了一下,哨声响亮。 „Can you also?” “你也会？” „It is not difficult.” “又不难。” „Who teaches you?” “谁教你的？” „My foster father.” “我养父。” Amber is saying, while pinched the leaf sentry post in knob, flat flat the lip, discards conveniently. 琥珀一边说着,一边捏了捏手里的叶子哨,扁扁嘴唇,随手扔掉。 „Child likes playing this......” she to whisper, „just saw that suddenly Rebecca and Betty are playing, remember themselves also to be able, along with folded sheet on which a subordinate reports to a superior.” “小孩子才喜欢玩这个……”她嘀咕着,“只不过突然看到瑞贝卡和贝蒂在玩,想起了自己也会,就随手折了一个。” Gawain looked at Amber one silently, anything had not said that but has turned the head, looks to the direction of front Fountain Square. 高文默默看了琥珀一眼,什么也没说,而是转过头,看向前方喷泉广场的方向。 The aristocrat gentleman and wife who young lady one crowd wears the magnificent clothing gathers in that small square, the focus of crowd is actually one wears the gray long gown, hair beard chaotic one piece, bends the waist little old man that the humpbacked face is smiling, the latter is beaming with health in the crowd shoots the breeze, causes the surrounding aristocrat gentleman frequently to nod, noble lady and young ladies show the smile once for a while. 一群穿着华丽服饰的贵族男士和夫人小姐聚集在那小广场上,人群的焦点却是一个身穿灰色长袍,头发胡子乱糟糟一片,弯腰驼背一脸嬉皮笑脸的小老头,后者正在人群中满面红光地高谈阔论,引得周围的贵族男士频频点头,贵妇人和小姐们时不时露出笑容。 Gawain guesses that Pittman definitely and is selling his deceiving thing- either takes the fake medicine of non- deceased person, either does not have charm that a point uses, his these will fool thing few individuals who will deceive people to take seriously, but he is going against Empire chief Druid and master level Researcher reputation, here must always have some people support. 高文猜皮特曼肯定又是在推销他的骗人玩意儿-要么是吃不死人的假药,要么是没一点用的护身符,他那些唬骗人的东西没几个人会当真,但他顶着帝国首席德鲁伊和大师级研究员的名头,在这里总是少不了有人捧场的。 Gawain turns the head to look to Amber: „Haven't you discussed with Pittman?” 高文转头看向琥珀:“你还没跟皮特曼谈过吧？” „...... Did not have,” Amber stopped, as if brings nervous and hesitation, „before I......, is busy arranging the security, does not have the time......” “……还没有,”琥珀停顿了一下,似乎带着一丝紧张和犹豫,“我……之前忙着安排安保,没有时间……” „Currently we have the time, Pittman looks also has the time very much,” Gawain said, „chatted.” “现在我们都有时间了,皮特曼看上去也很有时间,”高文说道,“去谈谈吧。” Amber raised the head: „Do you go with me together?” 琥珀抬起头:“你跟我一起去？” Gawain smiles, without the reply, brings Amber directly stand forth. 高文笑了笑,没有回答,带着琥珀径直向前走去。 The crowd near fountain noticed the Gawain's form, bowed to salute, retreated to both sides, only left behind Pittman to stand there, this old Druid raised the head, clapped the palm of the hand, is spreading out the hand to show the smile to Gawain: „Your this, my business did not have.” 喷泉附近的人群注意到了高文的身影,纷纷鞠躬致敬,向两旁退去,只留下皮特曼站在那里,这个老德鲁伊抬起头,拍了拍巴掌,对着高文摊开手露出笑容:“您这一来,我的生意都没了。” „Later said your business,” Gawain is saying, pushed slightly forward half step Amber, „don't you have the thing to give her?” “随后再说你的生意吧,”高文说着,把琥珀微微向前推了半步,“你不是有东西要交给她么？” „Gives me?” Amber gawked, opens the eye to turn head to look to Gawain. “交给我？”琥珀愣了一下,睁大眼睛扭头看向高文。 „Several days ago your majesty passed a letter/believes with me, talked about your foster father and your family background,” Pittman looks at Amber, on wrinkle face vertically and horizontally/able to move unhindered shows a smile, „he told me, some secrets should better not to take into the coffin, I then told him, my some things must transmit to you......” “几天前陛下就跟我通了一次信,谈到了你的养父和你的出身,”皮特曼看着琥珀,皱纹纵横的脸上露出一丝笑容,“他跟我说,有些秘密最好不要带进棺材里,我便告诉他,我有一些东西要转交给你……” The line of sight of Amber is moving between Gawain and Pittman, finally fell on Pittman: „What is......?” 琥珀的视线在高文和皮特曼之间移动着,最后落在了皮特曼身上:“是……什么？” Pittman sighed gently, the wrinkle on face twitched, he as if also wants to maintain oneself that to maintain dozens years of laughter facial features, but this expression finally actually became somewhat funny, later he put out a hand, pulled out pulling out in the long gown inside pocket, pulled out one already the quite worn-out note. 皮特曼轻轻叹了口气,脸上的皱纹抽动了一下,他似乎还想维持自己那维持了几十年的嬉笑面容,可这幅表情最后却变得有些滑稽,随后他伸出手,在长袍内侧的口袋里掏了掏,掏出了一本已经相当破旧的笔记。 „This is Surrey Randolph that fellow leaves your, he said that if some day, does not need to be worried again the royal family killer and captures personnel, can give you this,” Pittman said slowly, „, but I once hesitate whether this/should does that because this above content possibly is not quite to you good to accept. I once wanted to take into the coffin to go it......, but your majesty told me, you had the right to know your life experience.” “这是萨里・伦道夫那家伙留给你的,他说如果有朝一日,不必再担心王室的杀手和追捕人员,就可以把这个交给你,”皮特曼慢慢说道,“但我曾一度犹豫过是否该这么做,因为这上面的内容对你而言可能不太好接受。我曾想要把它带进棺材里去……可是陛下告诉我,你有权知道自己的身世。” Amber when received that note the expression to have one to hesitate, seems like this to conceal dozens years of secret suddenly such presented in oneself at present, making this Half-Elf have that the brain blank of moment, she forgot the inquiry, forgot the question, but subconsciously received the thing that Pittman handed over, before she opened it, the Pittman sound conveyed again. 琥珀在接过那本笔记的时候表情带着一丝迟疑,似乎是这隐瞒了几十年的秘密突然就这么呈现在自己眼前,让这位半精灵有了那么片刻的大脑空白,她忘了询问,忘了质疑,只是下意识地接过皮特曼递过来的东西,而在她将其翻开之前,皮特曼的声音再度传来。 „After looking, how I speak during that time I to know your foster father to you again.” “在看完之后,我再跟你讲讲当年我是怎么认识你养父的。” 『Joins the bookmark, easy reading』 『加入书签,方便阅读』
