准行在尚書禮部符。准紹興十四年三月二十四日勅，中書門下省尚書省送到知明州莫將劄子。竊見本州延慶寺，昨經兵火之後，此寺幸存。數年以來，盡為見任及寄居官，拘占指射作住止處。不容僧徒安止，佛像毀壞、雜穢侵擾。及本州廣慧院，舊係禪林熏修祝聖之地，從來開啟禱散聖節道場，亦被拘占所有。延慶寺廣慧院伏望特降指揮，不許諸人指占居住，庶幾古跡名藍不致墮壞，永為福田。候指揮。三月二十四日奉聖旨，依奉勅如右，牒到奉行。前批三月二十六日辰時付禮部施行，仍關合屬去處。明州主者一依勅命指揮施行，仍關合屬去處，須至行遣。右出給公據，付延慶寺仰收執，永為照會。紹興十四年四月日給。

> In accordance with the tally of the Ministry of Rites of the Department of State Affairs at the Temporary Capital. In accordance with the imperial decree of the twenty-fourth day of the third month of the fourteenth year of Shaoxing, the Secretariat-Chancellery and the Department of State Affairs forwarded the memorandum of Mo Jiang, Prefect of Mingzhou. \[It stated:\] 'I observe that in this prefecture, Yanqing Monastery fortunately survived the recent ravages of military conflict. For several years, however, it has been entirely requisitioned, designated, and occupied as residences by officials serving in post or dwelling away from office. Monks are not permitted to settle peacefully there, Buddha statues have been destroyed, and defilements and disturbances encroach upon it. Furthermore, Guanghui Cloister of this prefecture was formerly a Chan grove, a place for fragrant cultivation and prayer for the Emperor's longevity, and has always been where bodhimaṇḍas for imperial festivals are opened and completed, yet all of it has likewise been requisitioned and occupied. Regarding Yanqing Monastery and Guanghui Cloister, we humbly hope for the special issuance of an order forbidding all persons to designate, occupy, or reside therein, so that these ancient sites and famous monasteries may not fall into ruin, but forever serve as fields of merit. Awaiting instruction.' On the twenty-fourth day of the third month, the imperial decree was received: 'Approved as requested in the decree above. When the dispatch arrives, put it into effect.' The previous rescript, sent on the twenty-sixth day of the third month at the chen hour to the Ministry of Rites for execution, also notified the relevant offices. The authorities of Mingzhou shall carry this out in strict accordance with the imperial order, and having also notified the relevant offices, it must be put into execution. The official certificate above is issued and delivered to Yanqing Monastery, to be kept and held in possession as an everlasting deed of record. Issued on the \[blank\] day of the fourth month of the fourteenth year of Shaoxing.
