《南齐书·列传·卷二十九》
周奉叔辞别完毕正要到镇守处上任，他的部属已动身出发，高宗担心他逭一出去将不能再制服他，就同萧谌设计，谎称皇上有旨召周奉叔到尚书省官署把他杀掉，好几个勇士用拳打击了很久才死去。
奉叔辞毕将之镇，部伍已出。高宗虑其一出不可复制，与萧谌谋，称敕召奉叔于省内杀之，勇士数人拳击久之乃死。
After Zhou Fengshu said goodbye, he was about to take up the post of garrison. His subordinates had already set off. Xiaozong was afraid that he would not be able to subdue him once he went out. Then he designed with Xiao Chen to lie that the emperor had ordered Zhou Fengshu to be killed in the office of the Ministry of officials. Several warriors beat him with their fists for a long time before he died.
