皇朝中統三年，翰林學士承旨王鶚有志論著，求大安、崇慶事不可得，采摭當時詔令，故金部令史竇祥年八十九，耳目聰明，能記憶舊事，從之得二十餘條。 In Zhongtong year three of our dynasty, Hanlin Academician-in-Chief Wang E set out to write the history but could not recover events from the Da'an and Chongqing reigns. He gathered edicts of the day and turned to Dou Xiang, a former Jin Ministry of Revenue clerk of eighty-nine, still keen of eye and ear and able to recall old affairs — from him he obtained a little more than twenty entries.
