執禮與同列陳知質、程振、安扶皆主根索，四人哀民力已困，相與謀曰：「金人所欲無藝極，雖銅鐵亦不能給，盍以軍法結罪，儻窒其求。」 Zhili and his colleagues Chen Zhizhi, Cheng Zhen, and An Fu all headed the search for funds. Grieving that the people were exhausted, the four plotted together: "The Jin demands are boundless—even copper and iron could not satisfy them. Why not fix guilt under military law and perhaps block their demands?"

同時死者禮部侍郎陳知質，失其傳；給事中安扶，附見父《安燾傳》。 Chen Zhizhi, vice minister of Rites, who died at the same time, has no surviving biography; An Fu, supervising secretary, is treated in his father's biography of An Tao.
