官生の入学読書を代請する疏文

琉球国より帰還した翰林院検討《割書：臣》海宝、編修《割書：臣》徐葆光等が
謹んで
奏上いたします奏請の事について《割書：臣》等は
旨を奉じて琉球を冊封する礼を畢え、宴において王と語り、通事に詞を致させて云うには、「本国は海外の僻地に処し、荒陋が風となっております。康熙二十五年に
旨を奉じて官生阮維新・蔡文溥等三人を遣わして入学読書させることを許されました。今やっと文教を略知することができましたが、これは皆
皇上の賜によるものです。それ以来三十年間、上請する術がございませんでした。今幸いにも
天が使臣を国に遣わされましたので、前使汪楫が代請した入学読書の旧例に照らして求め、遠人の向化の意を陳明いたします。もし
諭允を蒙り、前例に照らして再び官生を遣わして入学読書させることができれば、
皇上の文教がますます広まることでしょう」と。

Now, fortunately, Heaven has sent envoys to our country, so we request to follow the precedent of former envoy Wang Ji's petition for entering school for study, to clearly express the intention of distant peoples aspiring to civilization. If we could receive gracious approval to follow the former precedent and again send official students to enter school for study, then His Majesty's literary education would spread even more widely."

The Ministry of Rites respectfully submits this memorial matter. The Bureau of Ceremonies has extracted [the following]: the principal envoy for Ryukyu investiture, Hanlin Academy Reviewer Hai Bao, and deputy envoy, Hanlin Academy Compiler Xu Baoguang and others arrived at the Ministry on the fifteenth day of the seventh month of the fifty-ninth year of Kangxi with their memorial. The relevant officials deliberated and concluded regarding the envoys for investing the King of Ryukyu - Hanlin Academy Reviewer Hai Bao, Compiler Xu Baoguang and others...
