工匠们觉得很离奇。他们决定去找新任侯王,看他有什么想法。他们跪在他面前说,大人,接万岁的旨意,我们试着给您做一枚官印,但每次我们浇铸模子,铸出来的官印上面都有一只乌龟,这只乌龟总是在向后看。
Carry on, Kung Yu directed. Do it over again.
继续做吧, 孔玉吩咐说。再重新铸一遍。
The artisans followed his command, but once again, the seal appeared with a turtle on top, looking back over its shoulder. Kung Yu was perplexed. The news of this strange occurrence spread, and eventually reached the royal ears of the Emperor.
工匠们遵照他的命令,铸出来,官印上面还是有一只乌龟向后看。孔玉很不解。这件怪事传开了,最后传到皇帝的耳朵里。
The Emperor called Kung Yu in to explain why his seal always came with a turtle, but Kung Yu was at a loss to explain.
皇帝召见孔玉,让他解释是怎么回事。孔玉无言以对。
On his way home, Kung Yu suddenly remembered something. The next day in court, he reported, Your Highnesss loyal minister has considered the manner of the seal and the unexplainable turtles, and perhaps has found a reason.
回家的路上,孔玉突然想起来的什么。第二天上朝,他奏道,陛下,臣思考了官印的样子还有那只无法解释的乌龟,可能已经知道答案了。
