高隨、斜野奉使高麗，至境上，接待之禮不遜，隨等不敢往，太宗曰：「高麗世臣於遼，當以事遼之禮事我，而我國有新喪，遼主未獲，勿遽強之。」 Gao Sui and Xieye were sent to Goryeo, but at the frontier the reception was insufficiently deferential and they dared not enter. Taizong said, "Goryeo long served the Liao and should observe the same rites toward us—but the court is in mourning and the Liao emperor is not yet captured. Do not press them yet."
