《汉书·传·贾邹枚路传》
天子听说吴国率领那些被削夺封地而失去常职的诸侯，要求恢复先帝的遣约，现在天子已亲自诛杀了三公之一的御史大夫晁错，对以前的过错表示道歉，这样，大王您的威力已加于天下，功业已超过了商汤和周武王。
天子闻吴率失职诸侯，愿责先帝之遗约，今汉亲诛其三公，以谢前过，是大王之威加于天下，而功越于汤、武也。
The emperor heard that the State of Wu led the vassals who had been deprived of their fiefdoms and lost their regular positions, asking to restore the agreement made by the former emperor, and now the emperor has personally executed Chao Cuo, the Imperial Censor, one of the three dukes, to apologize for his previous mistakes, so, Your Majesty, your power has been extended to the world, and your achievements have surpassed those of King Tang of Shang and King Wu of Zhou.
