《明史·列传·卷八十四》
如果只争一个皇字，那么执政大臣肯定会同意，用以阻止现在的论争，陛下也会姑且满足一下眼前的愿望，但是我恐怕天下真正懂礼数的人，将因此非议、笑话个没完没了。 
若徒争一皇字，则执政必姑以是塞今日之议，陛下亦姑以是满今日之心，臣恐天下知礼者，必将非笑无已也。 
If it’s just to fight for the word “emperor”, then the ruling ministers will certainly agree to use it to prevent the current controversy; his majesty will also temporarily satisfy the current wish, but I am afraid that the truly well-mannered people in the world will criticize and mock this endlessly.
