'My lord' I had to tell him, 'those are gargoyles.' He chuckled. "Ser Axell might serve for Shireen's father, but in my experience, the more bizarre and shocking a tale the more apt it is to be repeated. Stannis keeps an especially grotesque fool, a lackwit with a tattooed face."
哎，大人，‘我只好回答，’那都是石像鬼啊。“他笑了笑，”亚赛尔爵士固然可以充当希琳的父亲，但据我的经验，越是离奇古怪的故事，越容易口耳相传。史坦尼斯不是有个头脑简单、脸带刺青、样子特别畸形的弄臣吗？
Grand Maester Pycelle gaped at him, aghast. "Surely you do not mean to suggest that Lady Selyse would bring a fool into her bed?"
派席尔大学士一脸骇然，张大了嘴，“您该不会暗示赛丽丝夫人跟一个傻子私通吧？”
You'd have to be a fool to want to bed Selyse Florent, said Littlefinger. "Doubtless Patchface reminded her of Stannis. And the best lies contain within them nuggets of truth, enough to give a listener pause. As it happens, this fool is utterly devoted to the girl and follows her everywhere. They even look somewhat alike. Shireen has a mottled, halffrozen face as well."
“也只有傻子想跟赛丽丝·佛罗伦上床。”小指头道，“势必补丁脸让她联想起了史坦尼斯。而且啊，最好的谎言里面往往会隐藏少许事实，足以令听者生疑。你瞧，这个傻子对公主死心塌地，和这小女生是形影不离，就连他们看起来也有几分神似，希琳不也一脸杂斑，半边麻木嘛？”

Pycelle was lost. "But that is from the greyscale that near killed her as a babe, poor thing."
这下派席尔糊涂了，“但那是灰鳞病留下的后遗症，可怜的孩子，那场病小时候差点要了她的命啊。”
I like my tale better, said Littlefinger, "and so will the smallfolk. Most of them believe that if a woman eats rabbit while pregnant, her child will be born with long floppy ears."
“我比较喜欢我的说法，”小指头道，“相信老百姓也会同意。知道吗？他们还相信女人怀孕时若是吃了兔肉，生出的孩子就会长耳朵呢。”
Cersei smiled the sort of smile she customarily reserved for Jaime. "Lord Petyr, you are a wicked creature."
瑟曦露出她通常只留给詹姆的微笑，“培提尔大人，您真是坏到骨子里了。”
Thank you, Your Grace.
“多谢夸奖，太后陛下。”
