《元史·列传·卷六十二》
估计孟不肯接受，因此藉口害他。没想到孟欣然接受，连皇帝也不禁感到吃惊，问道： 李道复肯俯就集贤侍讲学士之职？ 
宣徽使以闻曰： 李孟今日供职，旧例当赐酒。 帝愕然曰： 李道复乃肯俯就集贤耶？ 
It was assumed that Meng Gong would refuse to accept the demotion, so he was persecuted under the pretext of a crime. Unexpectedly, Meng Gong accepted willingly, leaving even the emperor astonished. He asked: "Is Li Daofu willing to condescend to accept the position of Attendant Scholar of Ji Xian?"
