《资治通鉴·唐纪·唐纪四十三》
何况太尉、司徒都深受国家的荣宠，而将士也各自蒙受官职勋位，我们愿意姑且保住目前的状况，不敢再有侥幸的希图。 
况太尉、司徒皆受国宠荣，将士亦各蒙官勋，诚且愿保目前，不敢复有侥冀。 
Moreover, the Grand Tutor and the Grand Marshal are deeply favored by the nation, while the soldiers have also received official positions and ranks, so we are willing to temporarily maintain the current situation and don't dare to entertain any lucky fantasies.
