《三国志·魏书·钟繇华歆王朗传》
司徒王朗参与商讨，认为 钟繇想要减少死刑的律法条文，增加肉体刑罚的数量，这就是让躺着的人竖起来，将尸体转为活人了。
司徒王朗议，以为 繇欲轻减大辟之条，以增益刖刑之数，此即起偃为竖，化尸为人矣。
Minister of Works Wang Lang also participated in the discussions, and believed that "Zhong Yao wishes to reduce numerous death penalty stipulations and increase the number of corporal punishments. This is like making the bedridden stand up, and the dead live again."
