| 卻說闕澤字德潤，會稽山陰人也。家貧好學，與人傭工，嘗借人書來看。看過一遍，便不遺忘。口才辨給，少有膽氣。孫權召為參謀，與黃蓋最相善。蓋知其能言有膽，故欲使獻詐降書。澤欣然應諾曰：「大丈夫處世，不能立功建業，不幾與草木同腐乎？公既捐軀報主，澤又何惜微生！」黃蓋滾下床來拜而謝之。澤曰：「事不可緩，即今便行。」蓋曰：「書已修下了。」 | Kan Ze was from Shanyin, a son of a humble family. He loved books, but as he was too poor to buy, he used to borrow. He had a wonderfully tenacious memory, was very eloquent and no coward. Sun Quan had employed him among his advisers, and he and Huang Gai were excellent friends. Now Huang Gai had thought of Kan Ze to present the treacherous letter to Cao Cao, as Kan Ze's gifts made him most suitable. Kan Ze accepted with enthusiasm, saying, "When you, my friend, have suffered so much for our lord, could I spare myself? No! While a person lives, he must go on fulfilling his mission, or he is no better than the herbs that rot in the field." Huang Gai slipped off the couch and came over to salute him. "However, this matter must speed," continued Kan Ze. "There is no time to lose." "The letter is already written," said Huang Gai. |
