（詔の続き）
正朔を奉じ、誠を尽くして表を進め、旧詔と勅印を返納した。朕はこれをおおいに嘉する。よって特に正使・兵科副理官の張学礼、副使・行人司行人の王垓を遣わし、詔と印を奉じて赴かせ、琉球国中山王に封ずる。あわせて文幣等の品々を賜う。爾の国の官僚および爾の民百姓は、その王を補佐し、諸侯としての礼度を整え、心を合わせて忠誠を尽くし、その職務を慎んで守り、もって幸福を凝らし、世々に綿々と続かんことを。よってここに詔示し、広く聞き知らしめる。王に賜う印一、緞幣三十、妃に緞幣二十。

（順治）三年（1646年）、王は陪臣の呉国用・金正春を遣わして表を奉じて謝恩し、進貢した。且つ疏を以て言上するには、勅諭を拝読したところ、臣の使者が物故する者が甚だ多く、閩（福建）に滞在すること日久しく、正副使と督撫諸臣を処罰することとなった。しかし、中外はともに臣子に属し、臣はみずから天の恵みを受けながら、諸臣のために僅かな報いもできず、かえって諸臣の累を重くした。臣はいかなる人間ぞ、どうして安らかに夜を過ごすことができようか、と。

上は命じて学礼等を原職に復させ、国王に蟒緞二・彩緞四・藍緞二・素緞二・閃緞二・錦二・紬二・羅二・紗二を賜い、王舅（王の舅）に彩緞表裏各四・羅四・靴一双・彩緞三を、紫金大夫に彩緞表裏各四・羅三・靴一双を、使者に彩緞表裏各二・折鈔布四を、通事・従人には緞布を差等を以て賜った。

（順治）四年（1647年）、中山王は使者を遣わして進香し、あわせて（皇帝の）登極を賀して進貢した。その貢物のうち、梅花港口において風浪に遭い漂溺したものがあり、奉旨によりその補進を免ぜられた。

（順治）五年（1648年）、貢物を補進し、奉

英語訳

(Continuation of the Imperial Edict)
[The Ryukyu envoys] respectfully observed the imperial calendar, sincerely submitted a memorial, and returned the old imperial edict and seal. We find this most praiseworthy. Therefore, We specially dispatch the Chief Envoy, Vice Official of the Bureau of Military Affairs Zhang Xue-li, and the Deputy Envoy, Messenger of the Bureau of Messengers Wang Gai, bearing the imperial edict and seal, to proceed [to Ryukyu] and invest [the ruler] as the King of Zhongshan of the Ryukyu Kingdom. In addition, We bestow upon him textiles and other goods. May the officials of your kingdom and your common people support your king, uphold the proper conduct befitting a vassal state, unite in loyal sincerity, diligently fulfill your duties, thereby accumulating blessings to endure for generations. Therefore, this edict is hereby proclaimed so that all may hear and know. Bestowed upon the King: one seal, thirty bolts of satin; upon the Queen Consort: twenty bolts of satin.

In the 3rd year [of the Shunzhi reign, 1646], the King dispatched his ministers Wu Guo-yong and Jin Zheng-chun to present a memorial of gratitude and offer tribute. They also submitted a petition stating that, upon reading the imperial edict, [the King learned] that many of his envoys had died, that they had been detained in Fujian for a long time, and that the chief and deputy envoys along with the provincial governors and other officials had been punished. However, since all within and outside [the empire] were subjects of the throne, the King, having himself received Heaven's blessings, was unable to render even the slightest service on behalf of these officials, and had instead added to their troubles. "What manner of man am I," [he wrote], "that I could rest peacefully through the night?"

The Emperor commanded that Zhang Xue-li and the others be restored to their original posts, and bestowed upon the King of Ryukyu: two bolts of mang-patterned satin, four bolts of colored satin, two bolts of blue satin, two bolts of plain satin, two bolts of shimmering satin, two bolts of brocade, two bolts of pongee silk, two bolts of gauze-weave silk, and two bolts of thin silk. To the King's maternal uncle: four bolts each of colored satin (outer and lining), four bolts of gauze-weave silk, one pair of boots, and three bolts of colored satin. To the Purple-Gold Grand Master: four bolts each of colored satin (outer and lining), three bolts of gauze-weave silk, and one pair of boots. To the envoys: two bolts each of colored satin (outer and lining) and four lengths of paper-equivalent cloth. To the interpreters and attendants: satin and cloth in graded amounts according to rank.

In the 4th year [of the Shunzhi reign, 1647], the King of Zhongshan dispatched envoys to offer incense [at imperial temples] and to present congratulations on the Emperor's ascension to the throne, along with tribute. Among the tribute goods, some were lost when ships encountered storms and capsized at Meihua Harbor. By imperial decree, [the King] was exempted from making supplemental tribute to replace them.

In the 5th year [of the Shunzhi reign, 1648], the supplemental tribute goods were submitted, and by imperial decree...
