盎曰：「陛下居代時，太后嘗病，三年，陛下不交睫解衣，湯藥非陛下口所嘗弗進。 Yuan Ang said: "In your years at Dai the empress dowager lay ill three full years; you went without sleep and without changing your robes, and no draught touched her unless you had sipped it first.

今陛下聘六飛，馳不測山，有如馬驚車敗，陛下縱自輕，奈高廟、太后何？」 Now Your Majesty drives a team of six swift horses over perilous mountains. If the horses were startled and the chariot overturned, even if Your Majesty held your own life lightly, what would become of Gaozu's temple and the Empress Dowager?"
