《汉书·传·贾谊传》
现在按照这个道理去做，使国家巩固，民众安全，是很容易的。假如不趁早采取措施，就会伤害骨肉之情，以致要杀他们的头，这难道和秦朝末年还有什么不同吗?
今令此道顺而全安，甚易，不肯早为，已乃堕骨肉之属而抗刭之，岂有异秦之季世乎！
Now if we follow the same principle to consolidate the nation and protect the people, it will be easy. However, if we do not take measures as early as possible, it will hurt our sentiments, and ultimately we will have to behead them. Isn’t it the same as at the end of the Qin Dynasty?
