They will not be tolerated because of nobility, nor will they be deprived because of poverty. There will be no injustice that cannot be justified, and no crimes that are imposed. Obeying the law is like holding a sword, breaking the illusions of demons and monsters, and not seeking the gods. I hope that the people of the Qing Kingdom have the truth to follow, know etiquette, keep a benevolent heart, and not judge success or failure by money."
