《宋史·列传·卷九十六》
万一偏听致信而又任用他们，我担心国家从此衰颓，不再振兴了。 又议论 ：汉、唐灭亡，都是由于宦官。
万一过听而复用之，臣恐国家自此陵迟，不复振矣。 又论： 汉、唐之亡，皆由宦官。
I am worried that the country will decline from now on and will not revive if you are partial to hearing and believing them and appoint them by chance. Another comment: The Han and Tang Dynasties perished due to eunuchs.
