《焚金阙董卓行凶，匿玉玺孙坚背约 - Burning The Capital, Dong Zhuo Commits An Atrocity; Hiding The Imperial Hereditary Seal, Sun Jian Breaks Faith》 |
| 3 | 焚金阙董... : | 李傕抱头鼠窜，回见董卓，说孙坚如此无礼。卓怒，问李儒。儒曰：“温侯新败，兵无战心。不若引兵回洛阳，迁帝于长安，以应童谣。近日街市童谣曰：‘西头一个汉，东头一个汉。鹿走入长安，方可无斯难。’臣思此言，‘西头一个汉’，乃应高祖旺于西都长安，传一十二帝；‘东头一个汉’，乃应光武旺于东都洛阳，今亦传一十二帝。天运合回，丞相迁回长安，方可无虞。”卓大喜曰：“非汝言，吾实不悟。”遂引吕布星夜回洛阳，商议迁都。聚文武于朝堂，卓曰：“汉东都洛阳，二百馀年，气数已衰。吾观旺气实在长安，吾欲奉驾西幸。汝等各宜促装。” |
| Burning The Capital, Dong...: |
Li Jue threw his arms over his head and ran out. He returned to his master and told him what a rude reception he had met with. Dong Zhuo asked his adviser Li Ru how to reply to this. Li Ru said, "Lu Bu's late defeat had somewhat blunted the edge of our army's desire for battle. It would be well to return to the capital and remove the Emperor to Changan, as the street children had been lately singing: "A Han on the west, a Han on the east. The deer (emperor) in Changan shall worry least." Li Ru continued, "If you think out this couplet, it applies to the present juncture. Half the first line refers to the founder of the dynasty, Liu Bang the Supreme Ancestor, who became ruler in the western city of Changan, which was the capital during twelve reigns. The other half corresponds to Liu Xiu the Latter Han Founder who ruled from Luoyang, the eastern capital during twelve latter reigns. The revolution of the heavens brings us back to this starting moment. Thus if you remove to Changan, there will be no need for anxiety." Dong Zhuo was exceedingly pleased and said, "Had you not spoken thus, I should not have understood!" Then taking Lu Bu with him, Dong Zhuo started at once for Capital Luoyang. Here he called all the officials to a great council in the Palace and addressed them, "After two centuries of rule here, the royal fortune has been exhausted, and I perceive that the aura of rule has migrated to Changan, whither I now desire to move the court. All you had better pack up for the journey." |
