雲層遮蔽了大部份日光，令天空蒙上一層暗淡的灰，連藍都那麼無精打采，更遑論生活在其下的人們了。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlL4fWpkfOo
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eN8es5Jzs
從白廳這裡看出去，由於禁令的關係，附近的街道別說車馬，連行人都沒有。直挺挺站在宮門的衛兵像毫無生氣的雕像，只是忠誠地執行命令。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtHAxjKlYu
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXTqm4lWpz
這一副頹喪的景象，對久違歸國的西斯而言，難免感慨。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOete7HwWd
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNg6BXpILko
他嘆了口氣，離開窗邊，在牆邊站著。不過顧慮到身上穿的是自己借來晉見用的套裝，男人沒敢將背靠在牆上，生怕灰塵沾上天鵝絨外套。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PYKRsu4H5
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqSZda1Zm8
西斯得承認，久沒穿這東西，如今再穿上的感覺挺彆扭。而且北方冬天的氣候也令他頗不適應，在阿爾巴，即便冬天也沒有這麼冷，也比較乾燥。而蘭登總是潮濕的天氣令不透氣的襯衫穿在身上感覺更悶。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSg8xNC0Yej
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuup4ZSlea
西斯拉了拉領口，想讓自己喘口氣。就在這時，通往廷宮的大門打開。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPvvuOktFA
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3I13YS1UYt
「蘭開夏爵爺。」走出來的侍女左右看看，找到站在角落的他，「女王召見。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3M7LtKNii0
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOujFYdqDy
西斯朝她行禮，而後讓侍女領路，走進廷宮。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSUU1rN93I
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOaUxDfwMt
偌大的宮殿因其全白的建築而被稱為白廳，在艾德蒙王於此即位後，便成為整個英倫的權利中樞，政軍要事的相關部會都在此辦公，內閣議會和國王的居所也建立於此。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GnJ0ZG6rg
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFV369mHYU
在外圍，是各部會的辦公室，以及議會聆廳民眾請願的請願廳，這裡統稱為外廷。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBaskb6xxQ
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWDGPn2LcG
再內一圈，是內閣與議會的所在，以及宴會廳等場所，只有擁有頭銜與封號的大貴族被允許進入，甚至有些人得到女王陛下的首肯，可以在這裡擁有自己的房間。此處，通稱為廷宮。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgGA4zOvxK
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaMR0tssch
再往內則是內廷，也是真正被稱為白廳的宮殿，以中央的高塔為中心，向外傾斜、形成如山丘般的高聳城堡，是歷代國王的居所，一般只有親信與陪侍能夠進入。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6JIY1CodP
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmi9Dl9O2d
不過為了稱呼方便，這坐落在首都蘭登城北邊的巨大建築群都統稱白廳。但真正生活在其中的人們就知道，在這裡頭的地位可是天差地遠。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveKet27Frn
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9eRKDFqPu
越往內，黑暗越濃重。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVn6UXCPZ5D
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbg1PusfrFD
西斯默默跟在侍女身後，走在廷宮內，依稀可聽到旁人的竊竊私語。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vTIAs8dgf
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3e5edberYo
廷宮不像外廷，全是年輕貴族或經常汰換的雇員，那些人不認得他也是正常的，他已經有十幾年沒回來了。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7g1BJ6Gv6N
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNInDZv8eE
但廷宮裡的人還記得他，或者說是還對他這個人，以及當時突如其來的離去仍有印象。西斯不用聽也能猜出他們在談論什麼。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrlcZbtEWB
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPmdvygWmu
──被放逐的蘭開夏勳爵為什麼又回來了？38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4l06O6wrCX
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPIL0KluUc
──和杜邦家的克里斯多福近日回去領地是否有關？38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpvJbOdl8Z
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZazJnVDc3
──樞機主教已死，內閣是否又要改組？38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5Qorp7cfg
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNULxgpYyeK
但很可惜的，他們要失望了。西斯想。他回來可不是為了再掀起什麼動亂，而是為了結束這一切。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡap1oDGE4vx
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphG3xbzqVn
侍女將他帶到一處迴廊前停下，而後行了個禮便退開了。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKIAvELH6h
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSY2jFTCGfz
因為這裡再過去就是女王的內廷。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpGacWejYv
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbA7d4BG1u
西斯有些意外，他沒料到女王接見他的地方會……這麼深入。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIGk6PC7UA
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzJC4agtE9
就在他猶豫著是否應該繼續前進的時候，迴廊轉角走出一個身影。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uBQszJ4bt
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpHp8UVu1H
看到對方時，西斯略感訝異。這不能怪他，畢竟他離開太久，而他最後見到約書亞的時候，還覺得對方只是乳臭未乾的小鬼。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM34YCt9axH
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bhUr6VaFa
金髮男人走到他面前，穿猩紅色的城衛軍制服，掛著金色隊長綬帶，與他那頭即便在灰白色建築裡依然閃亮的金髮相得益彰，他配著劍、站姿筆挺的模樣瞬間打散了西斯記憶中那個老板著臉、一臉不可一世模樣的少年。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDggK16p687
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDS1QlDrbo
「約書亞。」他向來人笑著，「你可變得真多。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJDOM5fZFu
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZun8UfS4EI
在他面前站定了，約書亞上下打量男人，「你也是，西斯。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9eDKm8cXg
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHohyusvLwm
從約書亞眼底看到對他衣著顯而易見的嫌惡，西斯笑得更開懷。很好，至少還有一點是他熟悉的。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORz8IYN62I
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVngm3qhg8D
「我收回剛才的話，你一點都沒變。」看他笑成這副德性，約書亞皺眉。和克里斯多福比起來，這男人的變化真算少的。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbNJ4vPjdu
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlP96jF155
「很高興聽你這麼說，約書亞。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeVDGbXu0I
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkb7ADv1ve
約書亞瞪了他一眼。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3nWTQbi8m
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcPfkwsece
「走吧，陛下已經在等你了。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvhIuQO2zF
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORQhK9t9AJ
西斯不是第一次進內廷，但最近一次來也是很久之前的事了。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCctd8dN1Yr
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5bWtHhj4g
這裡不像外面那麼人來人往，偌大的白色宮殿裡裝飾得美侖美奐，卻寂靜。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNkvFXswif
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoZQ2g3Osk
以前曾有國王為了展現慷慨，允許他親近的臣子與侍妾自由出入內廷，那時候的宮殿也許不像現在這麼冷清，不過像這樣安靜也有些反常。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJyhzrH5TT
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0ywOxQjp9
侍女們低頭走過，沒有交談或嬉戲，對於他們的到來也只是神色匆匆地行禮後，就各自去忙各自的事情。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicMa465MLr
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjp1iHGvtY8
他們走過花園，這裡凋零的就像純白宮殿裡的冷漠。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKwX0esykL
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jh1mR00wW
「陛下在哪？」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5H1ZXygbas
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGn0K16Y5yf
在穿過中庭、踏上旋轉樓梯時，西斯突然問。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDdmeERDE8
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCl5pF6NRe
「在塔上。」約書亞說。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9D7JcvFwf
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJadubHkYCp
「……她在祈禱嗎？」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8YKF2KzLw
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdE6L2r98D
約書亞點頭。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6TgT0pELi
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwtR5fwts0
這是該哀悼。西斯想，透過階梯旁的窗子，俯瞰正默哀中的城堡。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaX7gZHZi3a
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylsWU2vIzd
他們失去過很多，不只是利益或權勢，伙伴也不少，不過沒有像這一次失去的那麼痛。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK90A7wWZrY
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbfmDp60cp
他回頭拾階而上，看著走在前頭的人。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtW4aOW15hk
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2StA73OFOC
有那麼一瞬間，他將金髮的約書亞看成那個有著黑色鬈髮、提著裙襬的嬌小身影……38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqd8DJoaPGv
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqsznZsE3z
她回過頭來，對他說──剛才那句話太失禮了，西斯──不過眼睛裡閃動的卻是不馴的笑意……38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IGXJ1qdMO
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6cQSsOkfT
「西斯。」約書亞叫他，將男人從幻影中拉回來。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LoiUxxseh
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfivq4DULo6
他還是站在冰冷的台階上，還是冰冷的空氣，可是雪莉的身影不在，取代她的是約書亞，擁有英倫皇室血統的約書亞。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamT6eZmoYd
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvtotLOZnw
西斯深吸口氣，露出笑容。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXNv3MQC0g
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cG3pLWyfq
有那麼一瞬，約書亞看起來有點好奇，似乎想開口問些什麼，但他還是壓抑住了。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡervs08Y1Wg
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4BIbkF0Px
「……在這等著。」他說。轉身走到樓梯盡頭，拉著門環敲門。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjHckxPt7G
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTT2qkErO0M
沒過多久，他就回頭叫西斯。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhBHDJtVIB
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFZ8nkTEY2
「進去吧。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRBEaONHev
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKm7gWwN5ws
西斯依言上前，繞過約書亞走進那扇門內。身後，金髮青年輕輕帶上門，呈圓型的斗室內，只剩下他和女王。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAH4ZesOLqN
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeLTJAFhP9
西斯進來的時候，女王仍跪在聖像前，低頭祈禱。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXaNyiHoGj
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnuMEHxPv6
直到門關起，她才緩緩起身、轉過來望著她的臣子。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTJPeTQMLY
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuGISOComR
蘇珊娜女王身上有所有金雀花家族的特質。她的金髮、藍色的眼睛、高挑身材、還有綜合桀驁不馴與堅毅兩者的性格。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdwFRusY8Z
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOyaJx9n2v
西斯看著她，沒在女王臉上看到任何他以為會有的動搖或悲痛。他只在她臉上看到屬於王的神情，平靜且威嚴。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSKbtxDOHH
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnmn6E5qOD
「陛下。」西斯躬身行禮。女王沒伸手示意他上前，他便待在原地。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1vK8K0mUu
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0x35Tg9wG
「許久不見了，西斯。」蘇珊娜說：「你看來沒變多少。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYzVRlIyqz
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTlBTUufox
的確，我是所有人中變得最少的那一個，但可不是一點也沒變。西斯想，「陛下也美麗依舊。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxdri7UWAr
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglpojZ6jFw
「但老了。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3W77HZj9GC
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDOkwei13N
「也更睿智。」西斯說。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLKQFkoS2d
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubSJIWRyFG
蘇珊娜微笑，「你還是一樣能言善道，西斯。能見到一個老模樣的朋友，在現在也是欣慰。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4nIP3VRDb
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHIczuEcMT
所以她並非無動於衷。低下頭的時候，西斯這麼想。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyox8CLnlc
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWHgbFGoD7
「臣受寵若驚。」他卑微地道。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQhHa5vvBK
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxHBNvMY31
蘇珊娜揮手讓他起身，走到塔頂的窗前，拂過她臉上的風也帶起落在她額際的髮絲，掺雜了紅的金，在蕭瑟裡像是最後一抹掙扎的顏色。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaiJlRlTNK
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdfesuRMy1
「西斯，現在的英倫就像進入冬季一樣，冰冷，而且麻木。」蘇珊娜說：「責任和歷史的壓迫看起來細微，可也非常沉重，它們正在掩埋我們。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RH0RF2z9R
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoodsV16Bk
西斯沒有回答，他甚至不知道女王對他說這些事的用意何在。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDozKt3rZZK
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhE4QJM3QFS
「但春天永遠會來。」她回過頭，注視她的臣子，「我們總是可以期待花苞綻放的那一天。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHBH3jMqjK
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pMZPKwOjf
「……您說的是，陛下。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk28DRjwNTj
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rHdd6SE81
對於西斯的謙遜附和，蘇珊娜只是好脾氣地微笑，「下去吧，西斯，你的加封典禮在明天舉行。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7WY8MhnOP
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UsPNagZVb
「加封典禮嗎？陛下？」西斯皺眉。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxkGlMWROm
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNnnGZQtTX
「你是回來為我辦事，那就必須有相應的地位和責任。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKgwK6LCbQ
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjA5OdOcQbo
「……是的，陛下。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaNTKv4CoE
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvALeaA2jLC
蘇珊娜顯然頗為欣賞他的順從，在他離去前，她還叫住他。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5eD9Ai3TW
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wD7I57ivT
「記得換好一些的套裝，親愛的，我想約書亞會願意替你找到合適的服裝。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4Hsu1VVwB
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnYxlZovyk
西斯有些尷尬地乾笑。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5u6J0JehFf
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdJWvtHph0
男人離開後，只剩一人的斗室顯得更加寂靜。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQg8exIdync
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNnrHnzePS
蘇珊娜再將頭轉向窗外，望著就在下方的庭園。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLK70eSCuQQ
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoH8Jn4GoJ
雖然還沒下雪，不過枝頭已經一片空盪，只留下僵硬、粗糙的深色線條，密密麻麻地，如同蛛網一般，取代了原有的色彩。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6rWwLTsw9
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hE8WECufX
春天終究會來。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SbWXK0i1O
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBu4oktg5dS
是的，除了心靈已近遲暮的她。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFSyuuBEJy
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVDbI99nKV
蘇珊娜離開窗邊，往門口走。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEU7dyELq9
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3uncQCaNT
耳裡只聽見自己的裙襬摩挲地面的聲音，單一的、孤單的。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtehaboiGv
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf16Bpx2TZU
她深深歎氣，推開門。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0iecWcby1
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4djZBOJfg2
挺直了背脊。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuRwpaqQe7
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaq1C3Bbm8Q
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZFHFlRVA3
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJUiBifQZz
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDeAirH09l
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Rz3N3G0ZZ
西斯走下樓梯的時候，見到約書亞正倚在一旁的牆上。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQ7sdNV9Km
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFLMpWfIkF
聽到他的腳步聲，金髮青年回過頭，注視男人朝他走來。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPHoBjbPiR
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3Y4UwfE02
「陛下要你幫我弄套可以看的衣服來。」西斯說，然後低頭看看自己這件借來的鼠棕色套裝，「……其實這件也挺好的，不是嗎？」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscHcHRRUCd
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4bvRgG4xG
約書亞掃了他一眼，用哼聲表達他的輕蔑。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOYmjCXsim
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5Wwaxaw9w
「有那麼糟嗎？」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsUl2BZ6BN
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowiBgBiaDs
「你向來都是一點品味也沒有的那一個。」約書亞說。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8gkjIhBdK
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOCTfXFVUi
他又轉回頭去看花園，那裡空無一物，西斯想不出來有什麼好看的，但金髮青年突然幽幽地道：「我還是沒辦法想像她不在了。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4gYdkN6W5
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAdJAWxnk7
西斯看著他。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFT4LNjAyLp
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5i3XHpONV
這裡也有一個並非如此無動於衷的人。他想，只是他們都太習慣掩飾。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHXHlcNtmO
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SAbJxQzgg
「你和她認識很久了？」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kOlqieCG9
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEV5B8RvO4u
「當然……但沒比陛下久。」約書亞說道。他聽說雪莉從小時候起就一直是蘇珊娜的隨侍，她對她的忠誠甚至勝過了對她的丈夫。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4YiUZP6op
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qh3HXP3R4
他們從沒想過這忠誠背後有什麼原因，讓她連死亡都得悄無聲息仍然無怨無悔。他們只是那麼習慣雪莉的存在，她總是站在女王身後，嬌小不起眼，可直到她消失，他們才發覺她的存在那麼大。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6cjwHQ01V
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHW47L9Us4
這整座城堡都在為她哀悼。就像它知道一個老朋友已經不會再回來了一樣。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQtG9BURWq
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauWRRCw9xb
西斯沉默，他對此難以有任何回應。他們曾經是同伴，有共同理想和目標的那種。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZF6gQobN0C
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYDr9Hlp63
「克里斯多福呢？」他換了個話題。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI737H8TwE4
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WDQrOgcCW
「他回領地去了。我以為你應該會知道。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5S4DSqhAzt
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKALRehRmbV
「我當然知道。但他不可能只是回去而已吧。」38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpkua14EQf
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdOp8z4CHQ
約書亞盯著他一陣，才說：「他是雪莉死前最後見到她的那個人。」好像這句話就足以說明一切。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUggOutpon2
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoc5GW9f8B
西斯點頭，他就知道那個男人不會沒有任何動作。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YKcsGDL4T
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYLkpf6fDy
克里斯多福的失勢是他離開宮廷之後的事情，那之後，他聽到不少傳聞，都說這男人變了。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsDMegXCGF
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHWQBT7bn7
但現在看來，他覺得克里斯多福一點也沒變。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepYHEpN8s9
38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmZwVB4EFq
一個人要改變很難，除非有強而有力的契機。38Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wrS8I8qL1
