all this trouble, My Lords. The King's tournament.

带来的麻烦, 诸位大人. 国王的比武大会.

I assure you The Hand wants no part of it.

我告诉你, 首相对它一点兴趣都没有.

Call it what you will, Lord Stark¹, Ser, the city is packed with people and more flooding in every day.

您怎么说都行, 史塔克大人, 城里已经挤满了人, 每天还有更多人涌入.

Last night we had a tavern² riot, a brothel fire, three stabbings and a drunken horse race down the Street of Sisters.

昨晚就发生了一起酒馆暴乱, 一起妓院火灾, 三起持刀械斗, 还有匹喝醉的马冲到修女街去了.

Dreadful. If you can't keep the King's peace, perhaps the city watch should be commanded by someone who can.

真吓人. 要是你无法维持秩序, 恐怕都城守卫队得换个有办法的人来指挥了.

I need more men. Ned: You'll get 50.

我需要更多人手. 再给你五十个人.

Lord Baelish will see it paid for. I will?

费用由贝里席大人负责. 由我负责?

You found money for a champion's purse, you can find money to keep the peace.

你连比武冠军的赏金都筹措得出, 那就再筹措一点来维持秩序吧.

I'll also give you 20 of my household guard till the crowds have left.

而且城里的旅店通通客满 妓女接客接到脚都合不拢.

I'm sure the tourney puts coins in many a pocket.

我敢肯定比武大会让许多人的口袋变得更满了.

Hmmm. Now... If there's nothing else, My Lords?
