《宋史·列传·卷一百八十八》
张栻又奏道： 文武臣僚的确不可偏废，现在想提高武官的地位以平衡文武二府机构的势力，而所用的都是这样的人，不仅不足以使文官们的心境感到服气，反而正好还会激怒武将大臣。 孝宗因此而感悟，诏命前令停止执行。
栻复奏： 文武诚不可偏，然今欲右武以均二柄，而所用乃得如此之人，非惟不足以服文吏之心，正恐反激武臣之怒。 孝宗感悟，命得中寝。
Zhang Shi memorialized again: "Civil and military officials cannot be neglected. Now, it is thought that the status of military officials should be raised to balance the power between the civil and military departments. However, the people who are used are all like this, not only will they not make the civil officials feel convinced, but it will also anger the military officials." Emperor Xiaozong was thus persuaded and ordered that the previous order be suspended.
