《陈书·列传·卷六》
这时宫内没有高祖正妻所生之子继位，外有强敌压境，侯填、侯安都、徐度等一起都在外地带兵，朝廷老将衹有杜棱在京都，并且独自掌握了宫廷禁兵，杜棱就与蔡景历等暂不向天下发讣告，先迎接世祖即位，这一历史情节参见蔡景历传。
时内无嫡嗣，外有强敌，侯瑱、侯安都、徐度等并在军中，朝廷宿将，唯棱在都，独典禁兵，乃与蔡景历等秘不发丧，奉迎世祖，事见景历传。
At this time, there was no son of Gaozu's wife who succeeded to the throne in the palace. There were powerful enemies outside the border. Hou Tian, Hou Andu, Xu Du and others were all stationed in foreign countries. The only veteran in the court was Du Leng in Kyoto. He also took charge of the forbidden troops in the palace alone. Du Leng and Cai Jingli temporarily did not announce the obituary to the world. They first welcomed Shizu to take the throne. See Cai Jingli's biography for this historical plot.
