Before the first emperor started his business, the middle road collapsed. Today he scored three points, and Yizhou was exhausted. This is a crucial autumn. But the guards worked tirelessly at home, and those who were loyal to their ambitions forgot to be outside, covering up the special experience of the former emperor and wanting to report to your majesty. Sincerely, it is advisable to open a holy court, with the honor of the late emperor and the spirit of the people. It is not advisable to belittle yourself, quote wrong words, and block the way of advice from loyal ministers.
In the palace, everything is an organic whole and should not be punished or denied. If there are criminals who are honest and kind, they should be rewarded by this department to show your majesty's understanding, and you should not favor one over the other, making the internal and external laws different.
Shi Zhong, Assistant Minister Guo Youzhi, Fei Yi, Dong Yun, etc. , are honest and sincere, are based on the advice of the first emperor left your majesty. Fools think that everything in the palace, big or small, should be discussed, and then implemented, which will make up for the vacancy and make a lot of profits.
General Xiang Chong, good character, good military. He tried it in the past, and the first emperor called it energy, which was supervised by the public. Fools think that knowing the situation of the camp and consulting them will definitely make the front line harmonious, and the advantages and disadvantages will be found.
Pro-sages, far villains, this first Han is so prosperous; You little people, far from being wise ministers, have been so depressed in the Han Dynasty ever since. When the late Emperor was around, every time I talked to the minister about it, I always sighed and hated Yu Huan and Ling. Shi Zhong, Shang Shu, Chang Shi, joined the army. I know that I am the minister of Zhenliang's death sacrifice. I hope your majesty personally believes that the Han Dynasty will be prosperous.
I was dressed in cloth and devoted myself to Nanyang. I risked my life in troubled times and didn't ask Wen Da to be a vassal. The first emperor didn't treat his ministers with meanness, and his accusation was self-defeating. He took care of his ministers in the thatched cottage and was grateful for what had happened in this world, so he promised the first emperor to drive him away. After the boat capsized, I was appointed as the defeated army and was ordered to face danger. I have been here for twenty years.
The first emperor knew that I was cautious, so he sent me to be a minister in case of collapse. Since I was appointed, I have been sighing all night, fearing that my entrustment will not work, so as to hurt my knowledge. Therefore, Luzhou in May was deserted. Now that the south is settled, there is enough armor. Authorized by the three armies, the north settled in the central plains, the arrogance was completely destroyed, the traitors were completely eliminated, and the Han Dynasty was revived, still in the old capital. The minister was therefore loyal to His Majesty and the first emperor. As for profit and loss, if you keep your word, you will be willing to do so.
May your majesty entrust the effect of bringing the dead back to life to the minister, and if it doesn't work, punish the minister severely and tell the spirit of the first emperor. If there are no words to promote virtue, blame you for being slow to show its blame; Your majesty should also ask for his own blessings, seek advice and kindness, observe words and deeds, and delve into the testaments of the previous dynasty. I am very grateful.
Stay away from it today, crying, I don't know what to say.
Translation:
The great cause initiated by the first emperor was not abandoned halfway, but abandoned halfway. Now the world is divided into three countries, and Shu Han is weak and in a very difficult situation. This is indeed a critical period for the country. However, the officials of the court attendants dare not slack off. Those loyal and ambitious soldiers on the battlefield were desperate, probably because they remembered the special kindness of the first emperor to them and wanted to repay your majesty.
Your majesty really wants to expand the hearing of saints, carry forward the virtues left by the former emperor, and inspire the aspirations of people with lofty ideals. Don't underestimate yourself and say something inappropriate, thus blocking people's path of loyalty and persuasion. Palace ministers and the imperial court are a whole, and rewards and punishments should not be different.
If there are people who do evil and violate the law, or who are honest and kind, they will be handed over to the competent officials to evaluate rewards and punishments, so as to show that your majesty is fair and strict in handling state affairs, and is impartial or selfish, which will prompt the court and the court to have different reward and punishment methods. Shi Zhong, assistant minister Guo Youzhi, Fei Yi, Dong Yun and others are all kind, honest, honest and pure people, with the same ambition and mind.
Therefore, the first emperor chose them and left them to his majesty. I think everything in the palace, big or small, should be discussed with him, so that when it is implemented in the future, it will certainly make up for the shortcomings and omissions and get more benefits. General Xiang Chong is kind, fair and proficient in military affairs. When he was appointed, the first emperor praised him for his talent, so everyone discussed and elected him as the head of the central government.
I think everything in the forbidden camp should be discussed with him, so that we can unite the army and let people with different talents get their places. Being close to virtuous officials and alienating villains are the reasons for the prosperity of the former Han Dynasty. Being close to the villain and alienating the virtuous officials are the reasons for the decline of the later Han Dynasty. When the first emperor was alive, whenever he talked to me about these things, he hated the corruption when the Emperor Huan and the Emperor Ling were in power without sighing.
Shi Zhong, Shang Shu, Chang Shi and joining the army are all honest and kind ministers. I hope your majesty can get close to them and trust them, then the revival and prosperity of the Han dynasty will be just around the corner. I am a commoner, farming my own land in Nanyang, and trying to save my life in troubled times. I don't want to be famous in Wang Zizhong.
My late emperor didn't condescend to see me because of my humble position. He visited me in my cabin three times and asked me about current affairs. I was very moved and promised to serve me in the election. It's been twenty-one years since the defeat, when you accepted the task, and when the situation was critical, you were ordered to go out.
My late emperor knew that I was cautious and entrusted the affairs of state to me before he died. Ever since I accepted death, I have been worried and sighing day and night. I'm afraid that the great task entrusted to me by my late emperor can't be realized, which will damage my late emperor's understanding of people. So I crossed the Green Water River in May and went deep into sparsely populated places alone.
Now that the south has been pacified and the troops and equipment are sufficient, I should inspire my soldiers to pacify the Central Plains, hoping to exhaust my mediocre talents, eradicate the treacherous and vicious enemies, and entrust me with the heavy responsibility of reviving the Han Dynasty and returning to my old capital. This is my duty to repay my late emperor's loyalty to your majesty. As for handling affairs, it is the responsibility of Guo Youzhi, Fei Yi and Dong Yun to consider the reasons and make suggestions without reservation.
I hope your majesty can entrust me with the task of punishing Cao Wei and restoring the Han Dynasty. If you can't finish it, you will punish my sins and comfort the soul of my late emperor. If there is no proposal to revitalize Shengde, it will be blamed on the negligence of Guo Youzhi, Fei Yi, Dong Yun and others.
Expose their shortcomings; Your majesty should also plan by himself, offer advice without reservation, adopt correct remarks, and deeply remember the teachings left by the late emperor. I can't thank you enough today. I will bid farewell to your majesty and travel far. In the face of such performance, I can't help but burst into tears and don't know what to say.
