《宋史·列传·卷一百零四》
他当面在朝廷争辩，有时皇帝大怒，就手执书简站立，等候皇帝怒气稍稍消解，再重复前面的正直之辞。
其面折廷争，或帝盛怒，则执简却立，伺怒稍解，复前抗辞。
When arguing with the emperor face-to-face in court, sometimes the emperor would be furious, so he would stand holding his letter and wait for the emperor's anger to subside slightly before repeating his righteous words.
