　　As many as can be gotten, Lord Hand. 首相大人，当然是越多越好。

　　Hire fifty new men, Ned told him. Lord Baelish will see that you get the coin. 那就雇五十个新兵，奈德告诉他，钱的事交给贝里席大人打点。
　　I will? Littlefinger said. 我打点？小指头说。
　　You will. You found forty thousand golden dragons for a champion's purse, surely you can scrape together a few coppers 1 to keep the king's peace. 没错。既然你连比武冠军的四万金龙赏金都筹得出，多弄几个铜板维持城里秩序想必不成问题。
　　Ned turned back to Janos Slynt. I will also give you twenty good swords from my own household guard, to serve with the Watch until the crowds have left. 奈德转头对杰诺斯·史林特道，我再从我的贴身护卫中拨二十个人给你，直到城里这批人离开为止。
　　All thanks, Lord Hand, Slynt said, bowing. I promise you, they shall be put to good use. 非常感谢，首相大人。史林特鞠躬，我向您保证，一定让他们派上用场。
　　When the Commander had taken his leave, Eddard Stark 2 turned to the rest of the council. The sooner this folly 3 is done with, the better I shall like it. 司令官离开后，奈德转向在场重臣：这场闹剧早一天结束，我就早一天安心。
　　As if the expense and trouble were not irksome enough, all and sundry 4 insisted on salting Ned's wound by calling it the Hand's tourney, as if he were the cause of it. 仿佛筹措经费和接踵而至的麻烦还不够他受，所有的闲杂人等都把这叫做首相的比武大会，这无疑是在伤口上洒盐，好像他才是罪魁祸首。
　　And Robert honestly seemed to think he should feel honored! 而劳勃竟当真以为他应该为此感到光荣！
　　The realm prospers 5 from such events, my lord, Grand Maester Pycelle said. They bring the great the chance of glory, and the lowly a respite 6 from their woes 7. 王国就是因为这种事才兴盛的啊，大人。派席尔国师说，对上等阶级而言，这是求取荣耀的大好时机。至于穷苦老百姓嘛，也能因此暂时忘忧解愁。
　　And put coins in many a pocket, Littlefinger added. Every inn in the city is full, and the whores are walking bowlegged and jingling 8 with each step. 很多人还能藉此大捞一笔，小指头补充，城里的旅店通通客满，妓女接客接到脚都合不拢，走起路来口袋里的铜板响叮当。
　　Lord Renly laughed. We're fortunate my brother Stannis is not with us. Remember the time he proposed to outlaw 9 brothels? 蓝礼公爵哈哈大笑：还好我二哥史坦尼斯不在。记不记得那次他提议查禁妓院？
