《资治通鉴·齐纪·齐纪十》
萧宝寅也逃走了，三天之后，方才穿着武服来到草市尉司自首，草市尉驰马去报告东昏侯，东昏侯召萧宝寅进宫讯问他，萧宝寅痛哭流涕地说： 那天不知道什么人逼使我上车，就把我弄去了，实在是身不由己。 
宝寅亦逃，三日，乃戎服诣草市尉，尉驰以启东昏。东昏召宝寅入宫问之，宝寅涕泣称： 尔日不知何人逼使上车，仍将去，制不自由。 
Xiao Baoyin also fled. Three days later, he came to the Caoshiwei Division in military uniform to surrender. The Caoshiwei galloped to report to the Eastern Darkness King, who summoned him and asked him questions. Xiao Baoyin cried and said, "I didn't know who forced me into the carriage that day and took me away. I couldn't help myself."
