Edict 2SZ-03-01

To the Court, 

''We command that you keep Chancellor Du's words in mind always, and reflect upon your own duty. Heaven has placed the mighty burden of rulership upon us, and it is in carrying out this duty that we require the services of talents throughout the realm. ''

''As such, we encourage that the officials of the Court, and of the regions, to report news to us and keep us apprised of their affairs, as well as of their policies and ideas. Seek not just to attack each other, but move forward with the work of governing the Empire. ''
