《明史·列传·卷七十二》
凡是圣贤的经书要义、帝王的统治方略，以及人臣贤否，政事得失，民情好坏，必须讲得明白无误，方可以实行而无弊病。
凡圣贤经旨，帝王大道，以及人臣贤否，政事得失，民情休戚，必讲之明而无疑，乃可行之笃而无弊。
The essential meanings of the scriptures of sages and worthies, the ruling strategies of emperors and kings, as well as the worthiness or unworthiness of ministers, the gains and losses of government affairs, and the good or bad feelings of the people, must be explained clearly and without error, so that they can be implemented without any弊病.
