私生子的阴谋

字幕原文

In the household of the Earl of Gloucester, another betrayal was brewing. 在格洛斯特伯爵家里，另一场背叛也正在悄悄酝酿。

Gloucester had two sons: Edgar, 格洛斯特有两个儿子：埃德加，

his lawful heir, and Edmund, born outside marriage. 是他合法的继承人；还有埃德蒙，是个私生子。

Edmund was clever, handsome, and bitter. 埃德蒙聪明帅气，心里却满是怨恨。

Why should he lose everything because of how he was born? 凭什么就因为出身，他就得失去一切？

"Now, gods, stand up for bastards!" “神啊，替私生子撑撑腰吧！”

He forged a letter in Edgar's handwriting, plotting to kill their father. 他模仿埃德加的笔迹伪造了一封信，密谋要谋害他们的父亲。

Then he let Gloucester find it. 然后，他故意让格洛斯特发现了这封信。

The old earl was horrified. 老伯爵吓得魂飞魄散。

At the same time, Edmund warned Edgar that their father was furious, 与此同时，埃德蒙又跑去警告埃德加，说父亲大发雷霆，

and told him to run. 叫他赶紧逃命。

Believing he was hunted, Edgar fled, 埃德加真以为有人在追捕自己，只得仓皇逃跑，

and Gloucester declared his loyal son a traitor. 而格洛斯特却宣布，自己这个忠心耿耿的儿子是个叛徒。

When a father can't tell his children apart, he's already half blind. 当一个父亲连自己的骨肉都认不清时，他的眼睛其实就已经瞎了一半。

With one lie, Edmund had turned father against son. 仅凭一个谎言，埃德蒙就让父子俩反目成仇。

And he was only getting started. 而他才刚刚开始呢。
