Things had gotten interesting while he'd been away, Tyrion reflected. "And what is our fearless monarch doing whilst all this ‘butcher's work' is being done?" he wondered. "How has my lovely and persuasive sister gotten Robert to agree to the imprisonment of his dear friend Ned?"
看来他缺席期间，局势产生了有趣的发展，提利昂心想。“当外面净在干些‘屠杀之事’的时候，咱们骁勇善战的国王陛下又在做什么呢？”他问，“我倒很想知道，我那能言善道的漂亮姐姐，究竟是怎么说服劳勃，同意囚禁他亲爱的伙伴奈德？”

Do you? Lord Tywin did not seem awed. "We also have a pair of Ned Stark's afterthoughts making a nuisance of themselves by harassing my foraging parties. Beric Dondarrion, some young lordling with delusions of valor.
“是吗？”父亲看来不为所动。“另外还有两个奈德·史塔克的余孽，专门骚扰我们的征粮部队。一个是想逞英雄的贵族少爷贝里·唐德利恩，
