At Rosby, Tommen would be safe from the mob, and keeping him apart from his brother also made things more difficult for Stannis;
在罗斯比，托曼不会受暴民的威胁，而让他和他哥哥分开将使史坦尼斯面临棘手的情形：
even if he took King's Landing and executed Joffrey, he'd still have a Lannister claimant to contend with.
即使攻破君临，处死乔佛里，兰尼斯特家族依然有王位继承人。

And I don't trust you with my nephew Should any ill befall Joffrey,
而且我可不放心把外甥交给你。若乔佛里有个三长两短，
the Lannister claim to the Iron Throne would rest on Tommen's young shoulders.
兰尼斯特家要保住铁王座就全靠年幼的的托曼。
Ser Jacelyn's gold cloaks would defend the boy;
杰斯林爵士和他的金袍卫士会保护那孩子；
Bronn's sellswords were more apt to sell him to his enemies.

提利昂驱策坐骑，沿着夜影巷“得得”而行。
A few furtive shapes darted into alleys at the sound of hoofbeats on the cobbles,
