《宋史·本纪·卷四十五》
当时贾似道把持大权，台谏官何梦然、孙附凤、桂锡孙、刘应龙等都顺承他的脸色和旨意行事，凡是被贾似道所厌恶的人不管贤否都加以排斥，皇上不明白他的险恶用心，为此下了这道诏令。
时似道专政，台谏何梦然、孙附凤、桂锡孙、刘应龙承顺风指，凡为似道所恶者无贤否皆斥，帝弗悟其奸，为下是诏。
At that time, Jia Sidao was in power, and the Taiwan Jian officials such as He Mengran, Sun Fufeng, Guixisun, and Liu Yinglong all acted in accordance with his intentions. Anyone who was excluded by Jia Sidao, regardless of whether he was good or not, was dismissed. The emperor didn't understand his sinister intentions, so he issued this decree.
