今日 講下 魯肅 ， 佢 聽見 送 請帖 嘅 使者 返 嚟 話 ： 關雲長 一 啖 應承 ， 聽日 一定 嚟 赴宴 喇 噉 。

Today, let's talk about Lu Su. He heard from the messenger who delivered the invitation that Guan Yu has agreed to come to the banquet tomorrow.
魯肅 就 同 呂蒙 商量 ： 關雲長 聽日 嚟 喇 ， 我 哋 點樣 做 呢 ？
Lu Su|then|with|Lu Meng|discuss|Guan Yu|tomorrow|come|particle indicating action completion|we|plural marker|how|do|question particle
Lu Su then discussed with Lu Meng: Guan Yu is coming tomorrow, what should we do?

Lu Meng|said|he|if|bring|army|here|then|I|and|Gan Ning|then|each bring|one|army|ambush|at|riverside|using|cannon fire||prepare|to fight to the death
Lu Meng said: If he brings an army, then I and Gan Ning will each lead a troop to ambush by the shore, using cannon fire as a signal to prepare for battle.
若果 佢 唔 帶 軍隊 嚟 呢 ， 噉 我 哋 就 喺 臨江 亭後便 ， 埋伏 五十名 刀斧手 ， 喺 飲酒 嘅 時候 殺 咗 佢 ， 噉 魯肅 佢 哋 就 商量 佈置 好 嘞 喎 。

If he doesn't bring an army, then we will ambush fifty axe men behind the pavilion by the river and kill him while he is drinking. So Lu Su and the others planned their arrangements.
第 日 ， 魯肅 派 人 喺 岸邊 瞭望 。

The next day, Lu Su sent people to watch from the shore.
啱 啱 過 咗 辰時 ， 即 係 而家講 八點鐘 咁 上下 ， 只見 江面 上 有 隻 船 嚟 緊 嘞 ， 船上 只有 幾個 艄公 水手 。
||passed|past tense marker|morning||||eight o'clock|about|around|only saw|river surface|on|there is|measure word for boats|boat|coming|continuous action marker|past action marker|on the boat|only|a few|boatmen|sailors
Just past the hour of Chen, which is around eight o'clock now, I saw a boat coming on the river, with only a few boatmen on board.
船上 ， 插住 一面 紅旗 迎風招展 ， 旗上 繡 住 大大 一個 關字 。
on the boat|hoisted|a|red flag|fluttering in the wind|on the flag|||big|one|character for 'guan'
On the boat, a red flag was fluttering in the wind, with a large character for 'Guan' embroidered on it.
越 嚟 越近 喇 ， 到 嘞 ， 靠岸 嘞 ， 嘩 ！ 只見 關雲長 頭 戴青巾 ， 身穿 綠袍 ， 坐 喺 船上 。

It was getting closer, and now it has arrived at the shore. Wow! I saw Guan Yun Chang wearing a blue headscarf and a green robe, sitting on the boat.
喺 佢 旁邊 ， 周倉 企 喺 處 抱住 青龍 偃月 刀 。

Next to him, Zhou Cang was standing there holding a Green Dragon Crescent Blade.
仲有 八九個 關西 大漢 ， 每人 都 掛住 腰刀 一把 ， 嗯 ， 魯肅 個心 有 啲 驚疑 喇 。

There were also eight or nine strong men from Guanxi, each carrying a sword at their waist. Hmm, Lu Su felt a bit anxious.
迎接 咗 關雲長 請 佢 入 去 臨江 亭 ， 行過禮 寒暄 一番 ， 就 埋位 入席 飲酒 。
welcome|past tense marker|Guan Yu|invite|him|enter|to|Linjiang|pavilion||small talk|a round|then|take a seat|seated|drinking
Welcoming Guan Yu, he was invited into the Lingjiang Pavilion, exchanged pleasantries, and then took his seat to drink.
魯肅 一 嚟 呢 ， 心中有鬼 ， 二 嚟 就 畀 關雲長 個 威風 震住 啊 ， 所以 敬酒 個 時候 都 唔 敢擔 高頭 望 關雲長 一眼 嘅 。
Lu Su|one|come|here||two|come|then|by|Guan Yu|possessive particle|imposing manner|intimidated|ah|so|toasting|possessive particle|time|all|not||high-headed|to look at|Guan Yu|a glance|particle indicating past action
As for Lu Su, he had a guilty conscience, and being in the presence of Guan Yu's imposing aura made him too intimidated to even dare to look Guan Yu in the eye while toasting.
但 係 關雲長 呢 ， 藝高人膽大 啊 依然 有 講有 笑 都 唔 知 幾淡定 。
||Guan Yu|this|highly skilled people are bold|ah|still|have|talking and|laughing|all|not|know|
However, Guan Yu, being skilled and bold, remained calm and composed, engaging in conversation and laughter.
飲到 咁 上下 ， 魯肅 就 講到 主題 喇 ， 佢 話 ： 有 一件 事要講 畀 君侯 你 知 。
drink|so|up and down|Lu Su|then|got to|topic|already|he|said|have|one thing||to|Lord Jun|you|know
After drinking for a while, Lu Su finally brought up the main topic, saying: There is something I need to tell you, my lord.
往日 ， 令兄 皇叔 要 我 喺 我 哋 主公 面前 ， 擔保 佢 借 荊州 嚟 暫時 住落 ， 約定 ， 喺 攞 咗 西川 之後 就 歸還 喇 噉 。

In the past, your brother, the Emperor's uncle, asked me to guarantee in front of our lord that he could temporarily reside in Jingzhou, with the agreement that it would be returned after we took Xichuan.
今日 ， 西川 已經 得到 啦 ， 但 係 荊州 仲未還 喎 ， 噉 未免 係 失信 嘞 噃。

Today, Xichuan has already been obtained, but Jingzhou has not yet been returned, which is quite untrustworthy.
關雲長 話 喇 ： 呢 啲 乃 係 國家 之 事 ， 喺 筵席 上 ， 唔 好 講喇 ！
Guan Yu|said|particle indicating completed action|these|plural marker|only|are|country|possessive particle|matters|at|banquet|on|not|well|talk
Guan Yunchang said: These are matters of the state, do not speak of them at the banquet!
誒 關將軍 ， 仲 係 請 你 聽 我講 埋 佢 。
hey|General Kwan|still|is|please|you|listen||including|him
Hey General Guan, I still ask you to listen to me.
我 哋 主公 雖然 只 係 得 江東 一 笪 咁 小 嘅 地方 ， 之 都 仲 肯將 荊州 借出 嚟 又 點解 呢 ？
we|plural marker|lord|although|only|is|have|Jiangdong|one|unit of measurement|so|small|possessive particle|place|possessive particle|also|still||Jingzhou|lend out|here|again|why|question particle
Although our lord only has such a small place in Jiangdong, why is he still willing to lend out Jingzhou?
皆 因為 乃念 君侯 你 哋 打 咗 敗仗 ， 喺 咁 遠 嚟 到 冇 個 立腳 嘅 地方 唧 。
all|because|thinking of|sir|you|plural marker|fight|past tense marker|losing battle|at|so|far|come|arrive|not have|a|standing|possessive particle|place|to complain
It is all because we remember that you lost the battle, and there is no place for you to stand so far away.
今日 ， 皇叔 已經 得 咗 益州 咯 ， 噉 ， 荊州 就 理應 歸還 嘞 喎 。

The Emperor's uncle has also promised to return the three counties first.
之君侯 你 又 唔 聽 ， 恐怕 喺 道理 上講 唔 過去 啩？
oh noble sir|you|again|not|listening|I'm afraid|at|reason||not|getting through|right
Lord, you are not listening again; I fear that it cannot be justified logically?
當年 烏林 戰役 ， 我 兄長 親冒矢石 不 避 危險 ， 同 東吳 合力 擊破 曹賊 。
that year|Wulin|battle|I|elder brother||not|avoid|danger|together|Eastern Wu|combined forces|defeated|the bandit Cao
During the Wulin battle, my brother personally faced arrows and stones without avoiding danger, working together with Eastern Wu to defeat the Cao bandits.
點 能夠 要 我 哋 白白 出 咗 力 ， 連 一寸 一尺 嘅 土地 嘅 酬勞 都 冇 呢 ？

How can we be expected to exert ourselves for nothing, without even a reward of an inch or a foot of land?
點解 而家 都督 你 又 要 嚟 攞 返 啲 地 啊 ？
why|now|Governor|you|again|want|come|take|return|some|land|question particle
Why do you want to take back the land now, Governor?
誒 唔 係 噉 講 嘅 君 侯 ，嗱， 當初 君侯同 皇叔 喺 長 坂 打 咗 敗仗 ， 計窮力竭 ， 都 準備 有 咁 遠 趯 咁 遠 喇 。

Hey, that's not how it is, my lord. At first, when you and the Emperor's uncle lost the battle at Changban, you were exhausted and prepared to retreat far away.
我 哋 主公 見到 皇叔 連個 棲身之地 都 冇 ， 就 深表同情 ， 情願 借 啲 地方 出 嚟 ， 等 皇叔 有 笪 地方 落腳 咯 ， 嚟 到 謀求 日後 嘅 發展 啊 。
I|we|lord|saw|uncle||place to live|all|have not|then||willing|lend|some|space|out|come|let|uncle|have|enough|space|settle|particle|||seek|future|possessive particle|development|particle
Our lord saw that the Emperor's uncle had no place to settle, so he expressed deep sympathy and was willing to lend some land so that the Emperor's uncle would have a place to land and seek future development.
但 係 皇叔 今日 不顧 道義 ， 唔 講交情 ， 得到 西川 咯 都 仲 佔 住 荊州 。
||Uncle Huang|today|disregarding|righteousness|not||obtaining|Xichuan|particle indicating realization|still|still|occupying|residing|Jingzhou
But today, the Emperor's uncle disregards righteousness and friendship, having taken Xichuan and still occupying Jingzhou.
嘿嘿 既 貪心 ， 又 背信棄義 ， 真 係 會 畀 天下 所 恥笑 㗎 ， 請君侯 你 認真 考慮 下 啦 。

Heh, being both greedy and treacherous will truly make him a laughingstock in the world. Please consider this seriously, my lord.
呢 啲 都 係 我 兄長 嘅 事 ， 唔 係 我關 某 所 應該 過問 。
||all|are|my|older brother|possessive particle|business|not|is||certain|place|should|inquire
These matters are all my brother's, not something I should interfere with.
聽講 君侯 你 同 皇叔 桃園 結義 ， 誓同生死 ， 噉 ， 皇叔 嘅 事 即 係 君 侯 嘅 事 啫 ， 使 乜 推託 呢 ？
I heard|Lord Jun|you|with|Uncle Huang|Peach Garden|sworn brotherhood||then|Uncle Huang|possessive particle|matter|just|is|you|Lord|possessive particle|matter|only|need|what|to shirk responsibility|question particle
I heard that Lord Jun, you and the Emperor's uncle have sworn brotherhood in the Peach Garden, vowing to live and die together. So, the Emperor's uncle's matters are your matters too, why push it away?
關雲長 都 仲未 回答 啊 ， 周倉 企 喺 台 階下 便 就 大聲 噉 話 嘞 ：

In this world, whoever has the ability gets the land. Is it just you guys from Eastern Wu who have a share?
關雲長 面色 一變 ， 霎聲 企 起身 行落 台階 ， 一手 攞 起 周 倉 捧住 嗰 把 大刀 ， 威風凜凜 企 喺 處 ， 望住 周倉 喝 佢 話 ：

Guan Yu kept holding onto Lu Su and walked to the side of the ship, and only then did he let go.
