History of Song, Chapter 107 Volume 107 Treatises 60: Rites 10 · 4 passages
禮官張洞、韓維言：「國朝每遇禘祫，奉別廟四後之主合食 太廟。
Ritual officials Zhang Dong and Han Wei argued: "At each dì and xiá sacrifice, our dynasty brings the spirit tablets of the four empresses from their separate temples to share the communal feast in the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
暨熙寧之初， 僖祖以世次當祧，禮官韓維等據經有請，適王安石用事，奮其臆說，乃俾章衡建議，尊僖祖為始祖，肇居東向。
By the beginning of Xining, when Emperor Xi was due for removal by generational order, ritual officials including Han Wei petitioned on canonical grounds; Wang Anshi was then in power and pressed his private theory, causing Zhang Heng to propose honoring Emperor Xi as founding ancestor in the east-facing seat.
韓維、司馬光等力爭，而安石主其說愈堅。
Han Wei, Sima Guang, and others strove against this while Anshi held ever more firmly to his view.
特以司馬光、韓維之徒皆是大賢，人所敬信，其議偶不出此，而安石 乃以變亂穿鑿得罪於公議，故欲堅守二賢之說，並安石所當取者而盡廢之。
Because Guang, Wei, and others were trusted worthies whose view happened not to take this course, while Anshi was condemned for forced interpretation, one wishes to adhere to the worthies and abolish even what Anshi rightly held.
