Translation 1:
His arms raised to strike, Chen Gong reflected, “I followed Cao Cao for the good of the Emperor. But killing him only adds another wrong. Better simply to leave.” Having come to that decision, he put away his sword and, without waiting for daybreak, rode toward Dongjun, his family’s home district.

Translation 2:
Having raised his sword at Cao Cao, but on the second thought, Chen Gong believed: “For the sake of the empire, I followed him here. Killing him would be an unfriendly act. Better to spare him and leave for another place.” Then he put the sword away and left for Dongjun when it was not daybreak yet.

5 却说那撞倒董卓的人正是李儒。当下李儒扶起董卓，至书院中坐定。卓曰：“汝为何来此？”儒曰：“儒适至府门，知太师怒入后园，询问吕布。因急走来，正遇吕布奔走，云：‘太师杀我！’儒慌赶入园中劝解，不意误撞恩相。死罪！死罪！”
Translation 1:
The man who plowed into Dong Zhuo was none other than his most trusted adviser, Li Ru. Horrified, Li Ru scrambled to help Dong Zhuo into the library, where the preceptor sat down and composed himself. “Whatever brought you here?” gasped Dong Zhuo. “I came in through the main gate,” Li Ru replied. “They told me you’d charged off into the rear garden looking for Lü Bu. I rushed over, too, and saw him bounding away, crying, ‘The preceptor’s after me!’ So I headed into the garden to try and smooth things over, but I have only offended Your Worship and made things worse. I deserve to die.”
(Translated by Moss Roberts)

Translation 2:
Who bumped into Dong Zhuo but Li Ru. Having helped Dong Zhuo on him feet, Li Ru accompanied him to his library. Having sat, Dong Zhuo asked: “What has brought you here?” “Passing by the gate of your mansion, I was informed that greatly vexed, Your Lord had rushed to the backyard. I was looking for Lü Bu to see what had happened when Lü Bu was running away, shouting ‘The Lord is killing me!’ I hurried to the yard to do my part but only to have bumped into Your Lordship unexpectedly. I deserve death punishment! I deserve death punishment!”
