《南齐书·列传·卷五十》
圣明的君王驾御海内，应当以遵循旧礼制度为先，京都畿辅的划界，应当遵守古代的体制，若分封土地，都要分给外部州郡。 
圣明御宇，礼旧为先，畿内限断，宜遵昔制，赐茅授土，一出外州。 
A wise monarch should govern the world by following the old rituals and systems. The demarcation of the capital and its surroundings should follow the ancient system. If the land is enfeoffed, it should be enfeoffed to the outer states and counties.
