《新唐书·列传·卷九十一》
又开府仪同三司、光禄大夫，也是官名，因为它太多，转作阶官等级，随时势订立条规，遇有毛病就改变，为什么要因循守旧怕改革呢？ 
又开府仪同三司、光禄大夫，亦官名，以其太多，回作阶级。随时立制，遇弊则变，何必因循惮改作耶？
The titles of Aide-de-Camp and Excellency, Grand Master of the Household, are also official titles, but because there were too many of them, they were transformed into honorary ranks; regulations were laid down according to the circumstances of the time, and these regulations were changed when defects were found. Why should we stick to old practices and be afraid of reform?
