《资治通鉴·汉纪·汉纪五》
至于郦寄，他的父亲本是汉室开国功臣，而且又被周勃等人劫持；郦寄的行为，虽使朋友吕禄被杀，却安定了国家，顾全了君臣父子的伦理大义，还是可以的。
若寄父为功臣而又执劫，虽摧吕禄以安社稷，谊存君亲可也。
As for Li Ji, his father was one of the founding fathers of the Han Dynasty, and under conditions in which Zhou Bo and others took him captive, Li Ji's actions, even though they caused the deaths of his friend Lv Lu, brought tranquility to the empire, and preserved the great righteousness of the ruler, minister, and father. We can also claim that this was right.
