《魏书·列传·卷六十八》
朱瑞开始以青州乐陵有朱氏，便想投靠他，所以请求任青州中正；又因沧州乐陵郡也有朱氏，而朱瑞心好河北，于是请求移任沧州。
瑞始以青州乐陵有朱氏，意欲归之，故求为青州中正；又以沧州乐陵亦有朱氏，而心好河北，遂乞移属焉。
Zhu Rui started with Zhu shi in Qingzhou Leling, so he wanted to take refuge with him, so he asked for the post of Qingzhou Zhongzheng; because Cangzhou Leling County also has Zhu shi, and Zhu Rui had a good heart for Hebei, so he asked to be transferred to Cangzhou.
