其三，天寶十五載注『肅宗皇帝至德元載』，明年惟曰『二載』，為無始。 Third: the fifteenth year of Tianbao carries a note 'Emperor Suzong, first year of Zhide,' but the next year is headed only 'second year,' as if the new reign had no proper beginning.

當大書『二載』上加『肅宗皇帝至德』，使上同於開元。 The second year should be headed 'Emperor Suzong, Zhide, second year,' matching the treatment given earlier reigns such as Kaiyuan.
