I have a couple of problems concerning this sentence:

庚辰,具疏投進,上命校書館印布正文,其後玉堂權尚游、尹趾仁請下兩南,竝注疏印進,學士大夫皆印藏而賞。

  1. How does 上命 relate to the previous clause (具疏投進)?
  2. I am not sure how to understand "尚游" in this context.
  3. In the sentence @請下兩南@ the word “两” refers to 玉堂權 and 尹趾仁 ?

by google, the text in question is korean related, so, my answer would be less accurate 😿

始克成書・名曰禮記類編・庚辰・具疏投進・上命校書館印布正文

[崔錫萬・字汝時] written a book, named “禮記類編”. on the day “庚辰”, he submitted a notice (疏 —> 奏疏, i’m not sure the proper english translation) to the emperor (具疏投進). [after reading], the emperor ordered (上命) the institution (校書館) to print and distribute (印布) the corrected text (正文)

玉堂

“玉堂” is the name of korean government institutions, in ancient time

https://baike.baidu.hk/item/弘文館/50841219

therefore, “尙游” is the name (most likely 字, or 名) of an official (mr 權) in such institution.

In the sentence @請下兩南@ the word “两” refers to 玉堂權 and 尹趾仁

i don’t think so, my best guess is some entities’ name started with “南”
