《汉书·传·盖诸葛刘郑孙毋将何传》
当今掌权的人都很通晓法令，他们的话足以歪曲您的言辞，文章足以形成您的过错，您不去学蘧伯玉的远见卓识，却去重蹈伍子胥的覆彻，用您的贵重无比的身躯，走近那不可测度的险境，我私下裹为您痛心。
方今用事之人皆明习法令，言足以饰君之辞，文足以成君之过，君不惟蘧氏之高踪，而慕子胥之末行，用不訾之躯，临不测之险，窃为君痛之。
The people in power today are all very knowledgeable about the law. Their words are sufficient to twist your words, and their writings are sufficient to form your crimes. You do not learn from Qu Boyu's foresight, but repeat Wu Zixu's destruction. With your invaluable body, you approach an immeasurable danger. I privately feel sorry for you.
