《资治通鉴·隋纪·隋纪五》
炀帝上朝览阅报告，对百官说： 前代没有贤才，以致户口罔骗冒充，现在户口都确实了，全是由于有了裴蕴。 
帝临朝鉴状，谓百官曰： 前代无贤才，致此罔冒；今户口皆实，全由裴蕴。 
Emperor Yang went to court to read the report and said to the officials: "There were no sages in the previous dynasties, so the population was fraudulent and pretended. Now the population is true, which is all due to Pei Yun."
