上曰。不妨。遂行至僧堂前。入僧堂。師先至方丈焚香。上至方丈。師起居。上首看　太祖皇帝所賜京師能仁寺佛牙舍利　上以手捧至額加敬。師以佛牙事跡進呈。至遇安堂一笑軒。讀大慧宗杲至梅陽所寄法衣書。云超然居士是箇中人。恐有未至處。當與商量。

The Emperor said, "No matter." They then walked to the front of the Sangha Hall and entered the Sangha Hall. The Master went ahead to the abbot's quarters to burn incense. The Emperor arrived at the abbot's quarters, and the Master performed the greeting ritual. The Emperor first viewed the Buddha's tooth relic bestowed on Nengren Temple in the capital by Emperor Taizu; the Emperor held it with both hands to his forehead and paid reverence. The Master presented the historical records of the Buddha's tooth. Arriving at the Yixiao Veranda of Yu'an Hall, they read the letter sent with Dharma robes by Dahui Zonggao when he arrived in Meiyang, which said: "Upāsaka Chaoran is a person within this realm; fearing that there might be some place he has not yet reached, you should consult with him."
