Hamlet, Horatio. what. "Haven't seen you in a while, good to see you back. How's it going? Over there at Wittenberg. How's the situation? Is it the same as before?" Huo. "It's so cold here. I can smell the smell of the coast, and the sea breeze hits people directly. Is it so cold here every night?" what. "No, it's still warm like this today. It will be cold for a while, and it will get warmer after a while. It's almost spring in Denmark. How is everyone doing?" Huo. "Your Highness, don't just ask us, what about yourself?"

what. "Your tone is very strange. What's the matter, have you heard any bad rumors from me? Wittenberg is full of people. Horatio, why are you acting weird today? Why are you so distant? " Huo. "No, there is absolutely nothing strange. Your Highness, are you really alright? Ah, it's so cold." what. "Your Highness.—You shouldn't call me that. Hey, just call me Hamlet like before. How did we become so strangers? What are you doing in Elsinore?" Huo. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. You are still the former Highness Hamlet, so angry. Your health is much better than I imagined, and it seems that you are really fine."

what. "What you say is really annoying. You must have heard some bad rumors, right? What are they? Tell me what they said. It must be my uncle talking to you again, for sure , obviously don’t understand anything, and still talk too much.” Huo. "No, His Majesty's letter only shows family affection. What it says in the letter is that the prince is very boring, and I hope you can come and talk to him. You are so polite that it makes me panic. It is a touching letter." what. "Liar, he must have written something else. I thought you were the only one who wouldn't lie to me."

Huo. "Your Highness, Hamlet. Horatio has been your friend from the very beginning, and will not lie to you. Then, I will tell you everything I heard at Wittenberg. Here It's really too cold, let's go back to the house. Why did you drag me to this kind of place? Once we met, I didn't say a word, and I took people to this kind of cold and invisible place Then came out the words "Yeah, we haven't seen each other for a while", even I couldn't help but have some doubts in my heart." what. "What's there to wonder about. Well, I think I've figured it out for the most part. But, um, I'm really surprised."

Huo. "Did you already know? Anyway, let's go back to the house first. I didn't bring my coat 11 today." what. "No, let's talk about it here. I have accumulated a mountain of things to ask you about this matter. It would be bad if someone else heard it. Don't worry if you talk about it here. It's a bit cold here. I hope you can bear it. Once a person has a secret in his heart, he really feels that even the walls have ears. Recently, my suspicions have become more and more serious.” Huo. "I understand. This incident really makes people have to sigh, in fact, I have seen the face of the former king two or three times before—"

what. "It's not that easy. I'm already sighing so much that I'm about to breathe fire. Anyway, tell me what you heard in Wittenberg first. If it's cold, take it and I'll give you my coat. It turns out that If you study in a civilized country for too long, even your skin will become thinner." Huo. "I'm sorry, it's all my fault that I didn't bring my coat. Then I'll be impolite, and I'll borrow your coat to wear. Huh, it's much better. It's much warmer this way, thank you." what. "Why don't you say it quickly, you seem to have come to Denmark specially to complain about the cold."

Huo. "It's really too cold, I'm sorry, Your Highness Hamlet. Then I said, ah, why do I feel as if someone is standing in that shadow." what. "What are you talking about? Isn't that a willow tree? There is a small river glowing slightly white under there. The river is very narrow but a bit deep. It was still frozen a while ago, but now the ice has melted and the water is very rough. Why are you less courageous than me, you have been studying in Civilized Country for too long,—” Huo. "Even the feeling will become thinner. Then, no one else can hear it? I can say it no matter how important it is?"

what. "Pretend to be, didn't I say from the beginning that there would be no problems here, otherwise why would I drag you here." Huo. "Then, I'm going to tell you. Please don't be surprised, Your Highness Hamlet. People in the university say that you are crazy." what. "Crazy? This is too exaggerated. I was still thinking that it might be something like a scandal. It's ridiculous. Don't you know it at a glance? Where did this rumor come from? Aha, I know Yes. My uncle helped me promote it, right?" Huo. "You're saying that again. Why does His Majesty want to spread such meaningless things? It's definitely not him."

what. "Why are you so sure it's not him. Uncle Goat is a true romantic, but he lamented that after becoming a father and son with me, his heart was far away from him, and his love turned into hatred." This time he changed direction again, the previous king passed away, and his heir Hamlet was sad, depressed and mad. It was the new king, Claudius, who stood up with the family's misfortune! It must be a good script. This is my uncle's He wants to attract people's attention so that he can be popular among the masses, so he has been playing me for an idiot recently. He spent a lot of effort to put on a show, and the people around him looked pitiful. But telling others What do you mean I'm crazy, it's too much. My uncle is really bad."

Huo. "I'll say it again, this is not His Majesty's propaganda, Your Highness Hamlet, you are so pitiful. You seem to know nothing, don't you? The rumors that spread to the university are not so simple. Ah, I can't go on." what. "What? Why are you pretending to be so deep. Did my uncle ask you to do something? To persuade me to reflect, or something. Right?" Huo. "I'll say it again, His Majesty's letter only asks me to come and talk with you. His Majesty probably never dreamed that I would bring such terrible rumors to you." what. "Really. No, maybe. If my uncle had spread that kind of rumor to the university, he wouldn't have taken the risk of calling you to me. Otherwise, it would have been discovered when you came. If it wasn't for him Who would it be? I am getting more and more confused. Anyway, it is too much to say that I am crazy. Now that I am holding on to those painful things, I may be happier if I really go crazy. I will tell you later Listen, Horatio. Is that all you're saying? There should be more to it, let's hear it. I won't care, I won't."

Huo. "Do I have to say it?" what. "Okay, you said it yourself, and now you still use such a despicable means of evasion. Is this kind of groaning and pretentious line popular in Wittenberg now?" Huo. "Then I'll say it. If you're going to insult Horatio's sincerity like that, I'll say it. I hope you don't mind it when you hear it. It's such a boring rumor that it's not worth mentioning, sir Huo Rasch didn't believe such unreasonable rumors from the beginning to the end." what. "It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, I'm going to be angry. I didn't know you would talk in such a stuffy way." Huo. "I said. I heard that the city of King Elsinore is haunted recently,—" what. "This is too exaggerated, Horatio, are you serious? I almost burst out laughing. It's too ridiculous. The standard of Wittenberg University has also become lower. Where has that unique scientific spirit gone? Recently There seems to be a popular study of drama in the university, maybe it's those stupid auditors with bad brains who came up with this kind of dirty soap opera. Haunted, this imagination is too poor. There are so many such nonsense rumors People are booing with joy, it can be seen that the standard of universities has been getting lower and lower recently. Haunting, coupled with Hamlet's madness, is like the title of a third-rate drama. My uncle once told me that university is boring and told me not to go. It turned out to be true. Yeah, my uncle is still smarter than me. If even I hang out with those unqualified mobs yelling and haunting, I think my uncle will really be speechless this time. They can't make up Have some sound rumors come out?" Huo. "I don't believe it either, but please don't speak ill of my alma mater. I always feel uncomfortable hearing it." what. "Sorry, you are an exception. My uncle is the only one who praises you. He said you are a sincere man. Even if I didn't go all the way to Wittenberg, it would be okay to call Horatio here alone. That's enough. Although I don't really want to go to college, I really miss you." Huo. "I would like to swear my loyalty to you. In addition, I may have to refute your words. The strange rumors I mentioned just now did not flow from our University of Wittenberg. For the reputation of my alma mater, I hope to make it clear This rumor spread from the city of Elsinore to the whole of Denmark, and finally reached the ears of people in foreign universities. This rumor is so unreasonable and ridiculous that Horatio has been depressed lately. Your Highness Hamlet, did you not know anything until today?" what. "How could I possibly know such a thing. But it seems to have spread far enough—foolish rumours, too far to be laughed off. Don't know if my uncle and Plonius know. Those People don’t know where their ears are. Could it be that they heard it, but pretended not to know it? They are the most insidious people. Horatio, what the hell is going on? I’m starting to get a little curious.” Huo. "I want to make sure first, can I really say it?" what. "Horatio, I'm really afraid of you. Say it quickly. You can say whatever you want. Anyway, just say it quickly. If you continue to pretend like this, I will want to break up with you." Huo. "I said. You may think it's not a big deal after hearing it. You will laugh like before and forget it. Ah, I think it's not a big deal when I think about it. But for To be on the safe side, I still need to make sure first, Your Highness Hamlet, of course you believe in the character of the current king, right?" what. "This question is really unexpected. This is a difficult problem... It's really nerve-wracking. How to say it, it's really hard to answer. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter what I think about it." Huo. "No, it doesn't matter. If I don't ask first, I won't dare to say anything."

"You are really guarded. You have changed, and now you are so stubborn. You were not like this before, um, forget it, I will answer you. Why do you still ask me this kind of thing now? Although my uncle has He is sloppy, but he is not a bad person. But if you ask me if I believe him, I am not sure. Are there any rumors against my uncle? Everyone should have a lot of dissatisfaction with him. How to say, this time things are not very appropriate, but this is not my uncle's decision alone. This kind of thing cannot be decided by one person. It is decided by the judgment of Plonnes and the ministers Yes, besides, I’m not the one who can take the throne right now. Denmark seems to be going through the most difficult period, and there’s no telling when a war will break out with Norway. I’m still not confident. Take a breath. It’s true. I want to joke with you more freely and play together for a while. This is actually nothing, aren’t we originally uncles and nephews, the closest relatives. I will Playing temper in front of my uncle, sometimes deliberately angering him, sometimes looking down on him. I often get angry with him on purpose and don’t answer his words seriously, but it’s all because we are uncles and nephews, maybe I’m with him He's acting like a baby. But I think my uncle should understand all this, because I still rely on him in many places. In fact, he is a good uncle. His personality is too weak, and he doesn't seem to have any political skills at all, and no matter what After all, he is Uncle Goat, and he will be exhausted in a short time. Although he seems to work really hard, but he is not that kind of material, how pitiful. He asked me to call him Dad, but I can't do it. I Mom's position this time is also very bad. Everyone said that it is the best way to consolidate the foundation of Hamlet's royal family. My mother seems to have that idea too, but look, they are not young anymore, maybe because of Find a partner with the mentality of drinking tea and chatting, but I still feel very ashamed. However, I have tried my best not to think too much about this matter. There is no way. As a son of man However, it is unacceptable to use such a narrow-minded mentality to scrutinize everything on parents. Such a child is not worthy of being a part of human beings. I think so. At first I would feel extremely lonely, but now I don’t let myself think about it anymore. The world doesn’t operate because of my own love and hate. Forget it, their affairs can only be solved by themselves. Are you satisfied with this? Let me answer Come on here, my mind is messed up. But my uncle is not a bad guy, at least that's what I'm sure of. He may be a little schemer, but he's definitely not a big villain. What do you think he can do." Huo. "Thank you, Your Highness Hamlet. I feel relieved after hearing your words. In the future, please be sure to believe in His Majesty the King like this. I also like the current His Majesty the King. He is a man of culture, and I think he is also a sympathetic person." People from Dagui. Your Highness Hamlet’s words just now gave me a hundred times more courage. I want to thank you. Your Highness Hamlet, you are still as clear as ever, and your pure judgment has not been clouded by dark clouds at all. That’s great, I am so happy." what. "Stop flattering me. Why are you so happy all of a sudden, I can't stand you. Horatio, you're still as frivolous as ever. And then? What the hell are the rumors. I'm crazy, there's a ghost in the city, and what else , there won’t be any more mice.” Huo. "It's not just mice, it's really stupid, ridiculous, unreasonable, it's a disgrace to Denmark, Your Highness Hamlet, let me tell you, ah, this is really unethical, unreasonable, and low-level!" what. "That's enough. I really don't know what I can say when you put together so many bad adjectives. Have you also joined the Drama Research Society in Wittenberg?" Huo. "That's right. I'm trying to play the role of a poet who worries about the country. I really feel more at ease. Your Highness Hamlet gave me such a clear judgment just now, so I am in the mood to joke again. Your Highness Hamlet, don't laugh at me, that The rumors are really funny, and you will definitely laugh at me. But this rumor spread from Denmark, and finally spread to my ears in a foreign university. I don’t think I can just laugh like this. Things need to be strictly banned. Don’t laugh, alas, I’m a little embarrassed to say it. They say that the ghost of the former king will appear every night, shouting to avenge him. Your Highness, Hamlet, it’s against you.” what. "To me? That's weird." Huo. "It's indecent. And it's so funny, there's more to it. The ghost said I was murdered by Claudius, who was infatuated with my wife,—" what. "It's exaggerated, obsession. My mother has dentures all over her mouth." Huo. "That's why I told you not to laugh. Hey, listen to this, there's more to come. In order to take away my wife and my throne at the same time, sneak up on me when I'm not paying attention during my afternoon nap." Pouring poison into my ears, that’s about it. Is the conception complete? “Drink, Hamlet, if you still have the heart of filial piety, don’t hold back humiliation and drink hatred, and live in peace.”” what. "Shut up! Even if it's a ghost, please don't imitate your father's tone casually. Be serious with the dead, your joke is a bit too much." Huo. "I'm sorry, I got carried away by accident. I never forgot the legacy of the late king, but because this incident was too ridiculous, I lost my composure for a while. I'm sorry. Although it was unintentional, I still touched His Highness Hamlet's inner sadness by mistake. .It's all Horatio's frivolity." what. "No, no, no, I yelled like that. I should be sorry. I'm too self-willed. Don't worry about it. And what about that ghost? Come on, this is really a whim." Huo. "Yes, I heard that the specter stood at His Highness Hamlet's bedside every night and recited those words, and finally tortured His Highness Hamlet, who was full of fear, suspicion and distress, into a mental disorder. It's just groundless." what. "possible." Huo. "Uh?" what. "It is possible. Horatio, I feel bad. The rumor is terrible." Huo. "Sure enough, shouldn't I say it?" what. "No, I'm so grateful for you telling me that if you've got a heart for filial piety—ah, Horatio, the rumors are true. I'm just too kind." Huo. "What are you talking about. This kind of reaction is weird in the eyes of ordinary people. It's just a rumor of some lowly civilians. Where did it come from?" what. "You don't understand, I'm so unwilling. You don't understand, being insulted on groundless grounds, or being rumored because of solid evidence, which one would you be more unwilling to do, think about it. I will definitely find out which one The basis. The members of Hamlet's royal family, my father, my uncle, my mother and I, have all been ridiculed by the people because of groundless things. I really can't swallow this breath. There should be some basis, since it can be passed on So vivid, don’t you think it’s very possible that it’s true. If there is any basis, I’m relieved. I can’t bear the insult of unjustified insults. It’s the royal family of Hamlet who is being mocked, and my uncle is really Poor, it's rare that he is working hard, and his hard work has been ruined by such rumors. It's too much, it's really unpleasant. I'm going to ask my uncle directly. I don't find any evidence. I feel really uncomfortable .Horatio, will you help me?" Huo. "If this is the case, it is all my responsibility. I understand, leave it to me. Your Highness, Hamlet, forgive me, but you are really awkward. In my opinion, you are completely awkward. Didn't you laugh just now? Are you so bright? This is a groundless and unreasonable rumor. You must not rush to ask His Majesty recklessly. This will only add trouble to Your Majesty. I insist on your previous clear judgment. You have forgotten Did you just say that you trust His Majesty, was that just casual talk?" what. "But there are degrees of insult, do you think my father would be the kind of person who turned into a ghost and came out to spread such dirty and ignorant things? Wow, how can this all be so stupid, I might as well be really crazy Come on. Be happy, Horatio. I'm awkward, of course I'm going to be awkward, you don't understand, you don't understand." Huo. "I think we'll have a good talk later. Sir Horatio was really confused. I didn't expect you to be so excited. Your Highness, Hamlet, you are still the same as before." what. "That's right, the same as before, the same capriciousness as before. If you say I'm frivolous, I don't object. My cultivation is not enough. I'm not the kind of big man who can keep smiling after being bullied like this. Horatio, coat Give it back to me, I feel cold too." Huo. "Return it to you. Your Highness Hamlet, I hope to talk to you again tomorrow." what. "That's as I wish, Horatio. Are you angry? Ah, I hear the sound of the waves. Horatio, I was going to tell you a more important secret this evening. Will you listen? I I also want to talk to you about the rumors just now, and I have another very painful secret.” Huo. "I think, let's wait until tomorrow when we both calm down a little bit, and let me go tonight. I'll go back and think about it. The most important thing is that I didn't come here today with a coat on." what. "Whatever you want, you don't believe in the purity of human excitement at all. Well, then, good night. Horatio, I am an unfortunate child." Huo. "I understand. Horatio is always on your side."
