《资治通鉴·后梁纪·后梁纪六》
先王对我说： 从前天子巡视石门时，我派兵去诛灭了乱臣贼子，当时，威振天下，我如果在那时挟持天子，占据关中，自己起草赐封九锡和禅让的文告，谁能禁止我？
先王语余云： 昔天子幸石门，吾发兵诛贼臣，当是之时，威振天下，吾若挟天子据关中，自作九锡禅文，谁能禁我！
The former king said to me: "In the past, when the emperor toured the Stone Gate, I sent troops to exterminate the rebels and bandits. At that time, my might shook the world. If I had taken the emperor hostage and occupied Guanzhong, and drafted the edict of bestowing the Nine Awards and abdication, who could have stopped me?
