《金史·列传·卷三十八》
上对宰臣说： 凡是议事的，评论到我头上也不要紧，如果言语涉及宰相，之间有了隔阂，用什么得以提拔？ 
上谓宰臣曰： 凡言事者，议及朕躬亦无妨，语涉宰相，间有憎嫌，何以得进？ 
Emperor said to the Prime Minister : Whatever the deliberation, the criticism of me does not matter, if the words involve the Prime Minister, but there is a gap between them, how can they be promoted?
