舉。同光帝謂興化曰。寡人收得中原一寶。（少賣弄）只是無人酬價（傾國莫換）化云。借陛下寶看（因便接勢）帝以兩手引幞頭脚（幸遇其人）化云。君王之寶誰敢酬價（一併交足別無少缺）。

Case: Emperor Tongguang said to Xinghua, "I have acquired a treasure of the Central Plains, (selling it short) but no one can name a price for it." (Even surrendering the realm cannot exchange for it). Xinghua said, "May I borrow Your Majesty's treasure to look at?" (Taking advantage of the occasion to seize the momentum). The Emperor pulled the straps of his headcloth with both hands. (Fortunately encountering the right person). Xinghua said, "Who would dare to name a price for the ruler's treasure?" (Paid in full all at once, with nothing lacking).
