《玄德用計襲樊城，元直走馬薦諸葛 - Shan Fu's Strategy: Fankou Is Captured; Xu Shu's Affection: Zhuge Liang Is Recommended》 |
| 16 | 玄德用計... : | 玄德聞言，大哭曰：「母子乃天性之親，元直無以備為念。待與老夫人相見之後，或者再得奉教。」徐庶便拜謝欲行。玄德曰：「乞再聚一宵，來日餞行。」孫乾密謂玄德曰：「元直天下奇才，久在新野，盡知我軍中虛實。今若使歸曹操，必然重用，我其危矣。主公宜苦留之，切勿放去，操見元直不去，必斬其母。元直知母死，必為母報讎，力攻曹操也。」玄德曰：「不可。使人殺其母，而吾用其子，不仁也；留之不使去，以絕其母子之道，不義也。吾寧死，不為不仁不義之事。」眾皆感歎。玄德請徐庶飲酒，庶曰：「今聞老母被囚，雖金波玉液不能下咽矣。」玄德曰：「備聞公將去，如失左右手，雖龍肝鳳髓，亦不甘味。」 |
| Shan Fu's Strategy: Fankou...: |
Liu Bei broke into loud moans when he heard that his adviser was to leave. "The bond between mother and son is divine," said Liu Bei, "and I do not need to be reminded where your duty lies. When you have seen your venerable mother, perhaps I may have again the happiness of receiving your instruction." Having said farewell, Xu Shu prepared to leave at once. However, at Liu Bei's wish, he consented to stay over the night. Then Sun Qian said privately to his master, "Xu Shu is indeed a genius, but he has been here long enough to know all our secrets. If you let him go over to Cao Cao, he will be in his confidence, and that will be to our detriment. You ought to keep him at all costs and not let him go. When Cao Cao sees Xu Shu does not come, he will put the mother to death, and that will make Xu Shu the more zealous in your service, for he will burn to avenge his mother's death." "I cannot do that. It would be very cruel and vile to procure the death of his mother that I might retain the son's services. If I kept him, it would lead to a rupture of the parental lien, and that would be a sin I would rather die than commit." Both were grieved and sighed. Liu Bei asked the parting guest to a banquet, but he declined, saying, "With my mother a prisoner I can swallow nothing, nay, though it were brewed from gold or distilled from jewels." "Alas! Your departure is as if I lost both my hands," said Liu Bei. "Even the liver of a dragon or the marrow of a phoenix would be bitter in my mouth." |
