《资治通鉴·唐纪·唐纪四十》
过去李林甫虽然大权独揽，大臣中仍有不征求宰相意见而上奏论事的，对此，李林甫仅能借口其他事，暗中伤害他们，尚且不敢明目张胆地下令各有关部门上奏论事都必须先告诉宰相。
昔林甫虽擅权，群臣有不咨宰相辄奏事者，则托以它事阴中伤之，犹不敢明令百司奏事皆先白宰相也。
In the past, although Li Linfu monopolized the power, there were still officials who reported and discussed matters without asking for the Prime Minister's opinion. In this regard, Li Linfu could only use other things as an excuse to harm them secretly, but he did not dare to openly order all relevant departments to report matters to the Prime Minister first.
