The assembled officials passed on the command, and had them enter.

著他進來: causative 著 read zhuó ("had them—"), not the durative zhe.

Pilgrim looked, and it turned out to be the monks of Precious Grove Monastery, come bearing in the Heaven-Soaring Cap, the Jasper Belt, the Ochre-Yellow Robe, and the Carefree Shoes.

Two deictic 那 (那寶林寺, 那沖天冠) = nà. 捧著: durative 著 = zhe ("bearing, carrying"). 進得來: complement 得 = de.

Pilgrim, delighted, said: "Well come, well come!"

來得好 (x2): complement 得 = de ("came out well/timely").

and had the acolyte come over, take off his head-wrap, and put on the Heaven-Soaring Cap;

教道人過來: causative 教, default jiào already correct — direct-verified, no override needed.

stripped off his cloth habit and put on the Ochre-Yellow Robe;

赭黃袍, the ochre-yellow robe, is a color reserved for imperial dress — the vestment sequence marks his transformation from resurrected corpse back into a reigning king.

undid his sash-cord and fastened on the Jasper Belt;

碧玉帶, the jasper belt, completes the regalia's second piece — each item of the borrowed monk's habit exchanged in turn for its royal counterpart.

slipped off his monk's sandals and stepped into the Carefree Shoes;

無憂履, "Carefree Shoes" — the vestment sequence closes with the shoes, the last trace of the borrowed monastic habit removed.

and had the crown prince bring out the white-jade tablet of state and place it in his hand — then at once invited him to ascend the hall and style himself sovereign.

稱孤: the royal self-address "the Solitary One." 教太子 causative, default jiào correct.

Even as the old saying goes: "A court cannot go a single day without its lord."

A stock proverb of dynastic legitimacy, invoked here to press the reluctant king toward the throne he has just been re-dressed for.

But the king would by no means consent to sit; weeping, he knelt at the center of the stair and said: "I have been dead three years — now, favored by Master's saving me back to life, how could I dare presume to style myself sovereign again?

那皇帝: deictic 那 = nà. 那裡肯坐: rhetorical-negative idiom "how could he possibly consent" — 那 here interrogative nǎ, not the deictic nà.

pray let that one master here become ruler instead; I would gladly take wife and children outside the walls and be commoners — that would content me."

那一位師父: deictic 那 = nà. Both 為 (為君, 為民) read wéi ("become, act as"), not the purposive wèi.

But Tripitaka would by no means accept it either — his heart was set on nothing but worshipping the Buddha and seeking the scriptures.

那三藏: deictic 那 = nà; 藏 = zàng. 那裡肯受: rhetorical 那 = nǎ.

So they asked Pilgrim next; Pilgrim laughed and said: "Not to deceive you all — if old Sun were willing to be an emperor, I'd have been emperor of every nation under Heaven, all Nine Provinces over, long since.

都做遍了: 都 = "all, altogether" (dōu).

It's only that we've grown used to being monks, lazy and easy-going as we are.

懶散, "lazy and easy-going," is Wukong's own self-diagnosis — the comic premise on which his refusal speech turns.

Were I to become emperor, I'd have to keep my crown unshaved and let my hair grow long, not sleep at dusk, not rest at the fifth watch;

留頭長髮: 長 the verb "to grow (long)", read zhǎng, not the adjective cháng.

on hearing of frontier alarms, my heart and spirit would know no peace;

邊報, "frontier alarms/reports," one item in Wukong's catalogue of a sovereign's burdens.

on seeing famine or calamity, I'd fret and grieve with no relief.

災荒, "famine, calamity" — the second of the two burdens Wukong itemizes before delivering his refusal.

How could the likes of us ever get used to that?"

弄得慣: complement 得 = de ("manage to get used to").

"You go on being your emperor, and I'll go on being my monk — off to cultivate my merit and my works."

Both 還 (你還做, 我還做) read hái ("still, as before").
