《宋书·列传·卷八十四》
诏书说四个造反的亲王年龄尚小，不幸陷入灾祸中，两军交战的时候不准乱加伤害，他们如果有半点损伤，必然要严惩不贷。
奉诏以四王幼弱，不幸陷难，兵交之日，不得妄加侵犯，若有逼损，诛翦无贷。
The edict said that the four rebellious princes were still young and had unfortunately fallen into the clutches of disaster. During the battle between the two armies, they were not allowed to be harmed indiscriminately. If they were to suffer any harm, they would be severely punished.
