Chen Liang said: The first emperor didn't accomplish half the task, and the middle road collapsed [1]. Three points into today, Yizhou tired [2]. This is also a crucial autumn. However, the minister of the Guards worked tirelessly inside, and those who were loyal to their ambitions forgot to be outside. They chased after the pearl of the former emperor and wanted to report to your majesty. Those who are sincere should listen to the sage [4], with the light of the late emperor's legacy [5] and the spirit of the noble [6], and should not sell themselves short, for example [7], blocking the way of loyal ministers.
Palace in the palace [8] is a whole, and whether it is punished or not, it should not be similar [9]. If there is a person who is loyal to the crime [10], he should be rewarded and punished by the minister [1 1] to show his majesty's honest intention [12], and he should not be partial to others, so that the internal and external laws are different [13].
Shi Zhong, assistant minister Guo Youzhi, Fei Yi, Dong Yun [14], all of them are honest and honest [15], which is based on the short-term choice of the former emperors to leave your majesty [16]. Fools think that everything in the palace, big or small, should be consulted [17], and then implemented, which will certainly make up for the vacancy [18] and benefit widely.
Xiang Chong, a general, a smooth officer. He was selected in the past and was called Neng by the first emperor, and was supervised by public discussion and love [20]. Fools think that knowing the situation in the camp and consulting them will definitely make the front line harmonious and gain advantages and disadvantages [2 1].
Pro-sages, far villains, this first Han is so prosperous; You little people, far from being wise ministers, have been so depressed in the Han Dynasty ever since. When the late emperor was here, he always sighed and hated Yu Huan and Ling whenever he talked to the minister about it [22]. Shi Zhong, Shang Shu, Chang Shi, joined the army [23]. I know that I am a virtuous and good-natured priest [24]. I hope your majesty personally believes that the Han dynasty must be prosperous.
I put on a cloth [25] and threw myself into Nanyang [26], risking my life in troubled times and not asking Wen Da to be a vassal. The first emperor didn't treat his ministers with meanness, and his accusation was self-defeating. He took care of his ministers in the thatched cottage and consulted them on contemporary affairs, so he was grateful and promised the first emperor to drive him away [27]. After the overthrow of the value [28], when he was appointed as the defeated army, he was ordered to be in danger. It has been twenty years since he came.
The first emperor knew that I was cautious, so he sent me to be a minister in case of collapse [29]. Since I was appointed, I have been sighing at night [30], fearing that the entrustment would be invalid and hurt the wisdom of my late emperor, so I crossed Luzhou in May [3 1] and went deep into the barren land [32]. This south has set [33], Jiazu. When the three armies made a decision, the north settled on the Central Plains, the polluted air was exhausted [34], the traitors were eliminated, the Han Dynasty was revived, and it returned to its old capital. The minister reported to the first emperor that he was loyal to his majesty. As for the consideration of profit and loss [35], keeping promises can do whatever you want.
May your majesty entrust the effect of bringing back the dead to the minister, and if it doesn't work, he will sue the spirit of the first emperor for punishing the minister; If there are no words to promote virtue, blame you for being slow [36] to show its blame [37]; Your majesty should also ask for help from himself, so as to consult the good way [38], examine the elegant words [39] and delve into the testamentary edict of the previous dynasty [40]. I am very grateful.
Stay away from it today, crying, I don't know what to say.
