Chapter 020-06 옥대속에 숨긴 황제의 밀서

13.言未畢,忽一人自外而入曰:「帝、后休憂:吾舉一人,可除國害。」帝視之,乃伏皇后之父伏完也。帝掩淚問曰:「皇丈亦知操賊之專橫乎?」完曰:「許田射鹿之事,誰不見之?但滿朝之中,非操宗族,則其門下。若非國戚,誰肯盡忠討賊?老臣無權,難行此事。車騎將軍國舅董承可託也。」帝曰:「董國舅多赴國難,朕躬素知;可宣入內,共議大事。」完曰:「陛下左右皆操賊心腹,倘事機泄漏,為禍不淺。」帝曰:「然則奈何?」完曰:「臣有一計,陛下可製衣一領,取玉帶一條,密賜董承;卻於帶襯內縫一密詔以賜之,令到家見詔,可以晝夜畫策;神鬼不覺矣。」

14.帝然之,伏完辭出。帝乃自作一密詔,咬破指尖,以血寫之,暗令伏皇后縫於玉帶紫錦襯內,卻自穿錦袍,自繫此帶,令內史宣董承入。承見帝禮畢,帝曰:「朕夜來與后說霸河之苦,念國舅大功,故特宣入慰勞。」承頓首謝。帝引承出殿,到太廟,轉上功臣閣內。帝焚香禮畢,引承觀畫像。中間畫漢高祖容像。帝曰:「吾高祖皇帝起身何地?如何創業?」承大驚曰:「陛下戲臣耳。聖祖之事,何為不知?高皇帝起自泗上亭長,提三尺劍,斬蛇起義,縱橫四海,三載亡秦,五年滅楚,遂有天下,立萬世之基業。

 Thus spoke the Empress, and at the same moment there stepped in a man who said, "Grieve not, O Imperial Pair! I can find a savior for the country."

 It was none other than the father of the Empress, Fu Wan.

 "Have you heard of Cao Cao's wanton and perverse behavior?" said the Emperor, drying his eyes.

 "You mean the deer shooting? Who did not see that, indeed? But the whole court is full of his clan or his creatures. With the exception of the relatives of your Consort, there is not one loyal enough to deal with a rebel. I have no authority and can do nothing, but there is General Dong Cheng, the State Uncle, who could do it."

 "Could Uncle Dong Cheng come in to consult about this? I know he has had much experience of state troubles."

 Fu Wan replied, "Everyone of your attendants is a partisan of Cao Cao, and this sort of thing must be kept most profoundly secret or the consequence will be most serious."

 "Then what can be done?" said the Emperor.

 "The only plan I can think of is to send gifts of a robe and a jade girdle to Dong Cheng, and in the lining of the girdle hide a secret edict authorizing him to take certain steps. When he gets home and has read the edict, he can elaborate plans as quickly as possible, and neither the spirits above nor the demons below will know anything about them."

 The Emperor approved, and Fu Wan went out. The Emperor then with his own hand drew up a decree, writing it with blood drawn by biting his finger. He gave the document to Empress Fu to sew into the purple lining of the girdle. When all was done, he put on the robe and girded it with the girdle. Next he bade one of the attendants summon State Uncle Dong Cheng to the Palace.

 Dong Cheng came; and after the ceremonies were finished, the Emperor said, "A few nights ago I was talking with the Empress of the terrible days of the rebellion, and we thought of your good services then, therefore we have called you in to reward you."

 The minister bowed his head in thanks. Then the Emperor led Dong Cheng out of the Reception Hall to the Temple of Ancestors, and they went to the gallery of Worthy Ministers, where the Emperor burned incense and performed the usual ceremonies. After this they went to see the portraits, and among them was one of the founder of the dynasty, Liu Bang the Supreme Ancestor.

 "Whence sprang our great ancestor, and how did he begin his great achievement?" said the Emperor.

 "Your Majesty is pleased to joke with thy servant," said Dong Cheng, rather startled at the question. "Who does not know the deeds of the Sacred Ancestor? He began life as a minor official in Sishang. There gripping his sword, he slew a white serpent, the beginning of his struggle for the right. Speedily he mastered the empire: In three years had destroyed Qin and, in five, also Chu. Thus he set up a dynasty that shall endure forever!"
