今臣去病上疏，不忘其職，因以宣恩，乃道天子卑讓自貶以勞天下，慮皇子未有號位。 Now the Grand Marshal Qubing has submitted his memorial, not forgetting his duty, thereby proclaiming imperial benevolence. He has spoken of how the Son of Heaven humbly defers and effaces himself while laboring for the realm, and how he is concerned that the imperial princes have not yet been granted titles.
