《宋史·列传·卷一百四十》
我并非拒绝听从不同意见，而是为了辨别各种意见的正误。 张阐说 ：陛下的胸怀应像天一样广阔，怎么会与臣下一争高低。 孝宗说： 爱卿所言很有道理。 不久，张阐又升任工部尚书兼侍读。
朕非拒谏者，辨是非耳。 阐曰： 圣度当如天，奈何与臣下争名。 帝曰： 卿言是也。 顷之，除工部尚书兼侍读。
“I’m not rejecting differing opinions, but want to distinguish between right and wrong.” Zhang Chan said: “Your Majesty’s heart should be as vast as the sky. How could you argue with your subject?” Xiaozong said: “What you say is very reasonable.” Soon, Zhang Chan was promoted to Minister of Works and concurrently served as an imperial tutor.
