恭惟五日起居，先皇垂範，俟百僚之俱退，召四輔以獨升，接以溫顏，詢其理道，計此時作事之意，亦昔日延英之流。 Respectfully considering the fifth-day audience, the late Emperor left a model: waiting until all officials had withdrawn, summoning the four chief ministers to ascend alone, receiving them warmly and inquiring into governance—the intent of such sessions is also in the tradition of Yanying of old.
