1권 1장 도원결의 - 영웅이 된 형제 - 4

Classical English

7.    The Emperor read this memorial with deep sighs, and one of the eunuchs CaoJie, from his place behind the throne, anxiously noted these signs of grief. An opportunity offering, he read the document and told his fellows its purport. Before long, a charge was trumped up against the author, who was driven from court and forced to retire to his country house. With this victory, the eunuchs grew bolder. Ten of them, rivals in wickedness and associates in evil deeds, formed a powerful party known as The Ten Regular Attendants-ZhangRang, ZhaoZhong, FengXu, DuanGui, CaoJie, HouLan, JianShuo, ChengKuang, XiaYun, and GuoSheng. One of them, ZhangRang, won such influence that he became the Emperor’s most honored and trusted adviser. The Emperor even called him ‘Dad’. So the Government went quickly from bad to worse until the country wae ripe for rebellion and buzzed with brigandage.

 

Modern English:

7. The Emperor read this memorial with heavy sighs, and one of the eunuchs, Cao Jie, noticed his distress from his position behind the throne. Sensing an opportunity, he read the document and shared its contents with his fellow eunuchs. Soon, they fabricated charges against the author, who was expelled from court and forced into retirement. Emboldened by this victory, the eunuchs grew even more audacious. Ten of them, notorious for their wickedness, formed a powerful group known as the Ten Regular Attendants: Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Feng Xu, Duan Gui, Cao Jie, Hou Lan, Jian Shuo, Cheng Kuang, Xia Yun, and Guo Sheng. Among them, Zhang Rang gained such favor that he became the Emperor’s most trusted adviser, with the Emperor even addressing him as "Dad." The government swiftly deteriorated, and the land became overrun with rebels and bandits, ripe for chaos.

 

Korean Translation

7. 황제는 이 상소문을 읽으며 깊은 한숨을 내쉬었고, 황제 뒤에 있던 환관 조절은 그의 슬픔을 주의 깊게 지켜보았습니다. 기회를 포착한 조절은 상소문의 내용을 읽고 동료 환관들에게 전했습니다. 얼마 지나지 않아 그 상소문 작성자는 조작된 혐의를 받아 궁정에서 쫓겨나 시골로 물러나야 했습니다. 이 승리로 환관들은 더욱 대담해졌습니다. 그들은 십상시라 불리는 강력한 그룹을 형성했는데, 장양, 조충, 풍서, 단규, 조절, 후람, 건삭, 성광, 하운, 곽승이 그 일원들이었습니다. 그 중 장양은 황제의 신임을 얻어 가장 영향력 있는 조언자가 되었고, 황제는 그를 "아버지"라고까지 불렀습니다. 정부는 급속히 부패했으며, 나라는 반란과 도적들로 넘쳐 혼란의 소용돌이에 빠지게 되었습니다.
