《贞观政要·卷一·论政体》
这些都是我亲眼见到的。因此我每天从早到晚辛勤努力、毫无厌倦，只求清净无为，使天下不生事端，从而做到徭役停罢，五谷丰收，百姓安居乐业。
此皆朕所目见，故夙夜孜孜，惟欲清净，使天下无事。遂得徭役不兴，年谷丰稔，百姓安乐。
I have seen all these things with my own eyes. Therefore, I work diligently every day from morning till night, never tiring, so that I can live peacefully and free from worry, prevent trouble, stop the corvée, ensure a good harvest, and let the people live and work in peace and contentment.
