Instead Joffrey smiled and kissed her hand, handsome and gallant as any prince in the songs, and said, Ser Loras has a keen eye for beauty, sweet lady.
结果乔佛里不仅面带微笑,还吻了她的手,跟歌谣里的王子一样英气勃发。他对她说:亲爱的小姐,洛拉斯爵士眼光很好,知道谁才是真正的美人。
He was too kind, she demurred, trying to remain modest and calm, though her heart was singing. Ser Loras is a true knight. Do you think he will win tomorrow, my lord?
他对我太好了。她装出严肃的样子,想要表现得礼貌而冷静,然而她的心却在歌唱。洛拉斯爵士是位真正的骑士。大人,您觉得他明天可会获胜?
No, Joffrey said. My dog will do for him, or perhaps my uncle Jaime. And in a few years, when I am old enough to enter the lists, I shall do for them all. He raised his hand to summon a servant with a flagon of iced summerwine, and poured her a cup. She looked anxiously at Septa Mordane, until Joffrey leaned over and filled the septa's cup as well, so she nodded and thanked him graciously and said not another word.
不会。乔佛里道,我的狗会收拾他,不然我舅舅詹姆也会。再过几年,等我可以进场,我会把他们全收拾掉。他举起手,召仆人送来一瓶冰镇的夏日红,亲自为她斟上一杯。她不安地看看茉丹修女,直等到乔佛里靠过去把修女的酒杯也倒满,她才优雅地点头称谢,然后再没说话。
The servants kept the cups filled all night, yet afterward Sansa could not recall ever tasting the wine. She needed no wine. She was drunk on the magic of the night, giddy with glamour, swept away by beauties she had dreamt of all her life and never dared hope to know. Singers sat before the king's pavilion, filling the dusk with music. A juggler kept a cascade of burning clubs spinning through the air. The king's own fool, the pie-faced simpleton called Moon Boy, danced about on stilts, all in motley, making mock of everyone with such deft cruelty that Sansa wondered if he was simple after all. Even Septa Mordane was helpless before him; when he sang his little song about the High Septon, she laughed so hard she spilled wine on herself.
侍者不停斟酒,杯子从未干涸,但事后珊莎却不记得自己尝过酒。她无需喝酒,便已陶醉在今夜的魔力下,被种种迷人事物薰得头晕目眩,被她梦想了一辈子、却从来不敢奢望目睹的美丽给弄得意乱情迷。吟游歌手们坐在国王的营帐前,让乐音流转于暮色之中。一名杂耍艺人在空中抛掷着一根根燃烧的木棍。头脑简单的扁脸月童——国王的御用小丑——穿着五颜六色的衣服,踩着高跷跳舞,并嘲弄在场的每一个人,其机巧毒舌,教珊莎不禁怀疑他怎么可能头脑简单。连茉丹修女在他面前也没了矜持,当他唱起寻大主教开心的小调时,她笑得把酒洒了一身。

背景介绍:

《权力的游戏》是一部中世纪史诗奇幻题材的电视连续剧。该剧以美国作家乔治·R·R·马丁的奇幻巨作《冰与火之歌》七部曲为基础改编创作,由大卫·贝尼奥夫和丹尼尔·威斯编剧、HBO电视网推出。乔治·雷蒙德·理查德·马丁是欧美奇幻小说大师。马丁的作品主要以人物为关注点,描写细腻丰富,突破了幻想文学界固有的创作模式,多次引领阅读潮流。由于马丁的辉煌成就,他被誉为美国的托尔金和新世纪的海明威。从1989年开始,马丁淡出文学界,转而投身演艺界发展,1996年他才重返文坛而开始奇幻文学的创作,处女作便是《权力的游戏》,即为《冰与火之歌》的首部曲。《权力的游戏》甫出便拿下了British Fantasy Society、 世界奇幻奖和星云奖年度最佳幻想作品提名,在非官方的不记名奇幻作品投票中,《冰与火之歌》俨然已经可以和《魔戒》平起平坐,作者网站的访问量也是和斯蒂芬·金、J.K.罗琳等不相上下,其受欢迎的程度可见一斑。乔治马丁被时代杂志评选为2011年影响世界的一百人之一。
