骑都尉王才、幸乐人孟思所为不法，振动京都，而其罪状发於小吏，公卿大臣初无一言。自陛下践阼以来，司隶校尉、御史中丞宁有举纲维以督奸宄，使朝廷肃然者邪？若陛下以为今世无良才，朝廷乏贤佐，岂可追望稷、契之遐踪，坐待来世之俊乂乎！今之所谓贤者，尽有大官而享厚禄矣，然而奉上之节未立，向公之心不一者，委任之责不专，而俗多忌讳故也。臣以为忠臣不必亲，亲臣不必忠。何者？以其居无嫌之地而事得自尽也。今有疏者毁人不实其所毁，而必曰私报所憎，誉人不实其所誉，而必曰私爱所亲，左右或因之以进憎爱之说。非独毁誉有之，政事损益，亦皆有嫌。陛下当思所以阐广朝臣之心，笃厉有道之节，使之自同古人，望与竹帛耳。反使如廉昭者扰乱其间，臣惧大臣遂将容身保位，坐观得失，为来世戒也！
