The late emperor passed away before accomplishing half of his feat. The world is presently divided into three while Sichuan is sterile and ravaged now, and this is indeed the critical moment for our survival! The guarding courtiers never relax in the palace, and the loyal officials are all devoted to the battlefield. They contribute themselves to your imperial majesty in memory of the late emperor’s exceptional grace to them. Thus, your imperial majesty, you should open your ears and listen to them
to glorify the late emperor’s legacy of virtue as well as to enhance the morale of these loyal courtiers, and your majesty, you shouldn’t look down on yourself, neither should you block their advice with the distorted analogies. The palace and the office of the prime minister are in unity. There shouldn’t be any discriminations among the rewarding to the virtuous and the punishment for those who make mistakes. Both the criminals and the virtuous should be dispatched to their due places for the treatment
which they deserve in order to highlight your equal and just governance. Therefore, your imperial majesty, you shouldn’t favor anyone and differentiate the laws within and without the palace. The high secretary and the vice ministers, Guo Yo-Chi, Fei Yi and Dong Yun are all righteous and honest with a pure and loyal mind. They were all promoted by the late emperor to aid you. I think every affair, whether important or trivial,( Peace Garden Museum Taiwan Collection, Scripts by Prof. Chen)
