It would not be the first time. Our good Robert is practiced at closing his eyes to things he would rather not see.
這也不是第一次了,對于不想知道的事,咱們的好勞勃向來是眼不見為凈。
Ned had no reply for that. The face of the butcher's boy swam up before his eyes, cloven almost in two, and afterward the king had said not a word. His head was pounding.
奈德沒有答話。屠夫小弟的那張幾乎被劈成兩半的臉浮現在他眼前,然而國王半聲也沒吭。他的腦袋開始轟轟作響。
Littlefinger sauntered over to the table, wrenched the knife from the wood.
小指頭晃到桌邊,把匕首從木頭里拔出。
The accusation is treason either way. Accuse the king and you will dance with Ilyn Payne before the words are out of your mouth.
無論怎樣行動,都構成叛國罪。若是控告國王,只怕你話還沒出口就先被伊林·派恩給宰了。
The queen...if you can find proof, and if you can make Robert listen, then perhaps?
若是王后…除非你能找到證據,而且能讓勞勃聽進去,才有可能…
We have proof, Ned said. We have the dagger.
我們有證據,奈德道,我們有這把匕首。
This? Littlefinger flipped the knife casually end over end.
這個?小指頭漫不經心地把玩著匕首。
A sweet piece of steel, but it cuts two ways, my lord.
大人,這是把好刀,好刀都是兩面開刃的。
The Imp will no doubt swear the blade was lost or stolen while he was at Winterfell, and with his hireling dead, who is there to give him the lie?
小惡魔肯定會辯稱匕首是他在臨冬城期間弄丟或是被偷。既然他雇的殺手已死,誰能證明他所言真假呢?
He tossed the knife lightly to Ned. My counsel is to drop that in the river and forget that it was ever forged.
他把刀子輕輕拋給奈德。我建議你還是把這玩意兒丟進河里,當它根本就不存在罷。
Ned regarded him coldly. Lord Baelish, I am a Stark of Winterfell. My son lies crippled, perhaps dying.
奈德冷冷地看著他。貝里席大人,我是臨冬城史塔克家族的人。我的兒子成了殘廢,很可能還活不成。
He would be dead, and Catelyn with him, but for a wolf pup we found in the snow.
若沒有那只我們在雪地里找到的小狼,他此刻已經死了,凱特琳很可能也會陪著他送命。
If you truly believe I could forget that, you are as big a fool now as when you took up sword against my brother.
假如你真以為我會裝作沒事,那你就和當年向我哥哥挑戰一樣愚蠢。
