Renly had been a boy of eight when Robert won the throne, but he had grown into a man so like his brother that Ned found it disconcerting.
勞勃剛奪下王位時,藍(lán)禮不過是個七歲小男生,如今他已長大成人,神貌酷似乃兄,奈德為此覺得極不自在。
Whenever he saw him, it was as if the years had slipped away and Robert stood before him, fresh from his victory on the Trident.
每次見到他,都仿佛時光倒流,看到那個英氣勃發(fā),甫從三叉戟河得勝歸來的勞勃站在面前。
I see you have arrived safely, Lord Stark, Renly said.
史塔克大人,看來您安然抵達(dá)了。藍(lán)禮道。
And you as well, Ned replied. You must forgive me, but sometimes you look the very image of your brother Robert.
您不也是。奈德回答,恕我直言,有時候您和您哥哥勞勃真像一個模子打出來的。
A poor copy, Renly said with a shrug.
我哪比得上他。藍(lán)禮聳聳肩。
Though much better dressed, Littlefinger quipped. Lord Renly spends more on clothing than half the ladies of the court.
您至少穿得比他好。小指頭俏皮地說,藍(lán)禮大人花在衣服上的錢,宮里的夫人太太恐怕都沒幾個比得上。
It was true enough.
此話倒是不假。
Lord Renly was in dark green velvet, with a dozen golden stags embroidered on his doublet.
藍(lán)禮公爵穿著暗綠天鵝絨緊身衣,上面繡了十二頭金色雄鹿。
A cloth-of-gold half cape was draped casually across one shoulder, fastened with an emerald brooch.
一邊肩頭瀟灑地垂著織金半披風(fēng),用一枚翡翠胸針別起。
There are worse crimes, Renly said with a laugh.
這應(yīng)該算不上滔天大罪。藍(lán)禮笑道。
The way you dress, for one.
瞧瞧你穿的什么德行,那才失禮。
Littlefinger ignored the jibe.
小指頭不理會他的嘲笑。
He eyed Ned with a smile on his lips that bordered on insolence.
他嘴角掛著近乎輕慢的微笑看著奈德。
I have hoped to meet you for some years, Lord Stark. No doubt Lady Catelyn has mentioned me to you.
史塔克大人,這些年來我一直想見見您。我想凱特琳夫人應(yīng)該向您提起過我吧?
She has, Ned replied with a chill in his voice. The sly arrogance of the comment rankled him.
她是提過。奈德冷冷地答道。對方這句傲慢中帶著促狹的話惹惱了他。
I understand you knew my brother Brandon as well.
如果我沒記錯的話,你也認(rèn)識我哥哥布蘭登。
Renly Baratheon laughed. Varys shuffled over to listen.
藍(lán)禮·拜拉席恩哈哈大笑。瓦里斯則曳步湊來。

背景介紹:
《權(quán)力的游戲》是一部中世紀(jì)史詩奇幻題材的電視連續(xù)劇。該劇以美國作家喬治·R·R·馬丁的奇幻巨作《冰與火之歌》七部曲為基礎(chǔ)改編創(chuàng)作,由大衛(wèi)·貝尼奧夫和丹尼爾·威斯編劇、HBO電視網(wǎng)推出。喬治·雷蒙德·理查德·馬丁是歐美奇幻小說大師。馬丁的作品主要以人物為關(guān)注點(diǎn),描寫細(xì)膩豐富,突破了幻想文學(xué)界固有的創(chuàng)作模式,多次引領(lǐng)閱讀潮流。由于馬丁的輝煌成就,他被譽(yù)為美國的托爾金和新世紀(jì)的海明威。從1989年開始,馬丁淡出文學(xué)界,轉(zhuǎn)而投身演藝界發(fā)展,1996年他才重返文壇而開始奇幻文學(xué)的創(chuàng)作,處女作便是《權(quán)力的游戲》,即為《冰與火之歌》的首部曲。《權(quán)力的游戲》甫出便拿下了British Fantasy Society、 世界奇幻獎和星云獎年度最佳幻想作品提名,在非官方的不記名奇幻作品投票中,《冰與火之歌》儼然已經(jīng)可以和《魔戒》平起平坐,作者網(wǎng)站的訪問量也是和斯蒂芬·金、J.K.羅琳等不相上下,其受歡迎的程度可見一斑。喬治馬丁被時代雜志評選為2011年影響世界的一百人之一。
