太宗使王阿海、楊天吉往賜誓詔曰：「維天會二年歲次甲辰，閏三月戊寅朔，皇帝賜誓詔于夏國王乾順：先皇帝誕膺駿命，肇啟鴻圖，而卿國據夏台，境連遼右，以效力於昏主，致結釁于王師。 Emperor Taizong sent Wang Ahai and Yang Tianji to deliver the sworn edict: "In Tianhui 2, year jiachen, on the first day of the intercalary third month, the Emperor bestows this sworn edict upon Xia King Qianshun: The late emperor received Heaven's mandate and founded our great enterprise, yet your state holds Xia Terrace on Liao's western border, serving a deluded sovereign and thereby drawing Our armies into war.
