楚材曰：「天下者先帝之天下。 Chucai said, "The realm belongs to the late emperor.

楚材曰：「國之典故，先帝悉委老臣，令史何與焉？ Chucai said, "State precedent was entrusted entirely to me by the late emperor—what business is it of the clerks?

楚材辨論不已，因大聲曰：「老臣事太祖、太宗三十餘年，無負于國，皇后亦豈能無罪殺臣也！」 Chucai would not stop arguing and cried out, "I served Taizu and Taizong for more than thirty years without failing the state—the empress cannot kill me without cause!"

太宗七年，從伐宋，詔軍前行中書省事，許以便宜。 In Taizong's seventh year he joined the campaign against Song and was ordered to handle Secretariat affairs with the army, with discretionary authority.
