時乾學與學士張英日侍左右，凡著作之任，皆以屬之。 Qianxue and Academician Zhang Ying were then in daily attendance on the emperor, and every literary commission was given to them.

不獨臣爲然，前入直諸臣，如熊賜履、葉方靄、張玉書、孫在豐、王士禎、硃彝尊等，近今同事諸臣，如陳廷敬、徐乾學、王鴻緒、張英、勵杜訥等，莫不皆然。 Nor was I alone: earlier men who served in the direct studios—Xiong Cilü, Ye Fang'ai, Zhang Yushu, Sun Zaifeng, Wang Shizhen, Zhu Yizun—and recent colleagues such as Chen Tingjing, Xu Qianxue, Wang Hongxu, Zhang Ying, and Li Dun'e all followed the same rule.
