《新唐书·列传·卷八十二》
陛下虽说有辅佐的大臣，亲信的侍卫，但遇见危难不能为皇帝尽忠，碰到祸患不能为皇上死节，这是臣子的罪过。
陛下虽有股肱之臣，耳目之佐，见危不能竭诚，临难不能效死，是则群臣之罪也。
Your majesty admits you have competent court officials and trusted bodyguards, but when you encounter difficulties they cannot give loyal support to the emperor and when you encounter misfortune they cannot die for him; this is the folly of ministers.
