唐同光四年三月，中書門下奏議：「左拾遺王松、吏部員外郎李慎儀上疏，以諸道州縣，皆是攝官，誅剝生靈，漸不存濟。 In the third month of Tongguang 4 of Tang, the Secretariat reported: "Left Remonstrance Councillor Wang Song and Vice Director of Personnel Li Shenyi wrote that circuit prefectures and districts are filled with acting officials who extort the people until livelihoods collapse.

望以中書條件及王松等所論事節，委銓司點檢，務在酌中，以為定制。」 I ask that the Secretariat's conditions and the points raised by Wang Song and others be entrusted to the Selection Office for review, with moderation as the fixed rule."

及崇韜誅，革說即教門人王松上疏奏論，故有此奏。 After Chongtao was executed, Ge and Yue had their student Wang Song submit the memorial above, which produced this report.
