《新五代史·列传·杂传第二十七》
刘守光认为各个节镇畏惧他的强大，就暗示各镇共同推尊自己，于是晋王率领天德宋瑶、振武周德威、昭义李嗣昭、义武王处直、成德王镕等人，用墨制册封尊刘守光为尚书令、尚父。
守光益以为诸镇畏其强，乃讽诸镇共推尊己，于是晋王率天德宋瑶、振武周德威、昭义李嗣昭、义武王处直、成德王镕等，以墨制册尊守光为尚书令、尚父。
Liu Shouguang assumes that each military governor fears his might. He therefore suggests all provinces make him their leader. And so the Prince of Jin, leading Tiande's Song Yao, Zhenwu's Zhou Dewei, Zhaoyi's Li Sizhao, Yi Wu's Wang Chuzhi, Chengde's Wang Rong, etc., compose a decree using India ink to appoint Liu Shouguang as Minister of State and Father of the Kingdom.
