先帝每宴見群臣，抑損醇（酉農），臣下終日無失慢之尤，百寮庶尹，並展所陳。而陛下拘以視瞻之敬，懼以不盡之酒。夫酒以成札，過則敗德，此無異商辛長夜之飲也，是不遵先帝九也； 昔漢之桓、靈，親近宦豎。大失民心。今高通、詹廉、羊度，黃門小人，而陛下賞以重爵，權以戰兵。若江渚有難，烽燧互起，則度等之武不能禦侮明也，是不遵先帝十也； 今宮女曠積，而黃門復走州郡，條牒民女，有錢則捨，無錢則取，怨呼道路，母子死訣，是不遵先帝十一也； 先帝在時，亦養諸王太子，若取乳母，其夫復役，賜與錢財，給其資糧，時遣歸來，視其弱息。今則不然，夫婦生離，夫故作役，兒從後死，家為空戶，是不遵先帝十二也； 先帝歎曰：‘國以民為本，民以食為天，衣其次也，三者，孤存之於心。’今則不然，農桑並廢，是不遵先帝十三也；
