攝將去了 Snatched Away In A Moment
如若三聲不獻出來,就要先吃寡人,後吃眾臣,將滿城黎民盡皆吃絕。那時節,朕卻憂國憂民,無奈,將金聖宮推出海榴亭外,被那妖響一聲攝將去了。如若三声不献出来,就要先吃寡人,后吃众臣,将满城黎民尽皆吃绝。那时节,朕却忧国忧民,无奈,将金圣宫推出海榴亭外,被那妖响一声摄将去了。
逐句解 Line by line
"and that if she were not brought out by the third call he would eat Us first, and then Our ministers, and then devour every commoner in the city to the last.
The threat climbs in three stages — the king, then his ministers, then every commoner in the city — and counting to three attaches a deadline to it. 將 is jiāng, taking an object forward.
"At that time, anxious for Our state and Our people, We had no choice: We pushed the Golden Sage Palace out beyond the Pomegranate Pavilion, and with one roar the monster carried her off.
推出 — pushed her out — is the king's own word for what he did, and he does not soften it. The sentence he has spent five exchanges approaching is confessed in a single clause. 將 is jiāng twice here, once taking an object and once pushing a verb along.
The threat is built in three ascending stages — the king first, then his ministers, then every commoner in the city down to the last — and the count of three attaches a deadline to it. It is a demon's threat and it is also, precisely, a political problem.
The king's own account of what he did is the hardest sentence in the chapter. Anxious for the state and the people, having no choice — and then he pushed her out. He does not soften the verb, and the monster took her with one roar. Everything since has been consequence.
