《资治通鉴·宋纪·宋纪十二》
湘东王刘、建安王刘休仁、山阳王刘休，长得都很肥壮，废帝就把他们三人关在竹笼里，放到秤上称量。因为刘最胖，就称他 猪王 ，称刘休仁为 杀王 ，刘休为 贼王 。
湘东王彧、建安王休仁、山阳王休祐，皆肥壮，帝为竹笼，盛而称之，以彧尤肥，谓之 猪王 ，谓休仁为 杀王 ，休祐为 贼王 。
King Xiangdong Liu, King Jianan Liu Xiuren, and King Shanyang Liu Xiu, were all very plump, so the deposed Emperor caged the three of them in bamboo cages and weighed them on a scale. As Liu was the fattest, he was called "Pig King", Liu Xiuren was called "Killing King" and Liu Xiu was called "Thief King".
