《汉书·传·杨胡朱梅云传》
秦朝无道，禁止孔子的学说，毁灭周公的制度，破坏井田制度，取消公、侯、伯、子、男五等封爵，礼义废弛，音乐崩坏，圣王的仁政之道中断，所以想推行王道的没有谁能收到功效。
秦为亡道，削仲尼之迹，灭周公之轨，坏井田，除五等，礼废乐崩，王道不通，故欲行王道者莫能致其功也。
The Qin Dynasty was unethical, and prohibited the doctrines of Confucius, destroyed the policies of the Duke of Zhou, destroyed the Jing Tian system, abolished the five titles of Gong, Hou, Bo, Zi and Nan, so the etiquette and music were ruined, and the principles of benevolence of the sage were interrupted, and those who wanted to implement the policies of the kings failed.
