乾隆十四年，定奏凱功成，祭告天地、廟社、陵寢，釋奠先師，勒碑太學，命儒臣輯平定方略垂奕。 In the fourteenth year of Qianlong it was established that upon reporting victory after success, reports were made to Heaven and Earth, the ancestral temple and altars of soil and grain, and the imperial tombs; libations were offered to the Sage Teacher; a stele was carved at the Imperial Academy; and Confucian officials were ordered to compile records of pacification to be transmitted to posterity.
