《史记·十二本纪·孝文本纪》
臣子郑重而又恭敬地建议：一代的功劳没有大过高皇帝的，德业没有盛过孝文皇帝的，高皇帝庙应该成为皇帝的太祖庙，孝文皇帝庙应该成为皇帝的太宗庙。
臣谨议：世功莫大於高皇帝，德莫盛於孝文皇帝，高皇庙宜为帝者太祖之庙，孝文皇帝庙宜为帝者太宗之庙。
Your servants solemnly and respectfully propose: The achievements of no era surpass those of Gao Huang Di, the virtue and deeds of none surpass those of Emperor Xiaowen, Gao Huang Di's temple should be the emperor's Taizu Temple, Emperor Xiaowen's temple should be the emperor's Taizong Temple.
