The Tripiṭaka śramaṇa Zhizang of Daxingshan Temple states: I humbly hear that the government troops have presented victory, recapturing the Eastern Capital. The rebellious faction melted away like ice; the royal army alone prevailed. All living beings rejoice, leaping with joy beyond measure. Zhizang has heard that 'those who go against virtue perish, and their self-made evil cannot be escaped'—this is recorded on bamboo slips and is truly a maxim! Since the wild barbarians brought turmoil to China, three years have passed. Spirits resent them and men are outraged; their guilt is ripe and their evils full. Your Majesty ate late and dressed before dawn, sharing meals and wine equally with your men; consequently, Your ministers exerted their full strength, and the brave warriors competed to be in the vanguard. Your temple stratagems left nothing amiss, and your divine merit needed no second trial. Taking advantage of this irresistible force, You met with their turning of weapons. In a single military campaign, three victories were won, and in succession within ten days, both capitals were recovered. Truly, none of this could have occurred without the far-reaching reach of Your sage plans, the extraordinary brilliance of Your heroic strategy, and the sacred power that supported it, excelling high above all former rulers. You are about to diligently honor the Eastern Peak and manifest repayment to High Heaven. Zhizang is fortunate to dwell in this glorious era and stands waiting to observe the magnificent rites. Unable to contain my boundless joy, I have respectfully come to the Yintai Gate to present this memorial offering congratulations. Lightly encroaching upon the imperial majesty, I prostrate in deep trepidation. The śramaṇa Zhizang, truly delighted and truly joyful, respectfully speaks.
