《资治通鉴·宋纪·宋纪九》
刘宋南平穆王刘铄对自己的才华能力一向很自负，所以平时在言谈举止之间多少有点轻视刘骏，他又曾接受刘劭的任命，是最后一个出来投降的。于是，刘骏偷偷派人向刘铄下毒。己巳，刘铄去世。刘骏下诏，追赠他为司徒，并用楚国太子商臣的谥号作为刘铄的谥号。
乙丑，魏濮阳王闾若文、征西大将军永昌王仁皆坐谋叛，仁赐死于长安，若文伏诛。南平穆王铄素负才能，意当轻上；又为太子劭所任，出降最晚。上潜使人毒之，己巳，铄卒，赠司徒，以商臣之谥谥之。
Liu Shuo, the King of Nananpingmu of Liu Song Dynasty, was always proud of his talent, so he had always looked down upon Liu Jun in his speech and manners. He had also accepted the appointments of Liu Shao and was the last one to surrender. So Liu Jun secretly sent someone to poison Liu Shuo. On Ji Si day, Liu Shuo passed away. Liu Jun issued an edict and posthumously awarded him Situ and used the posthumous title of Shang Chen, prince of Chu, as the posthumous title of Liu Shuo.
