《宋史·列传·卷一百八十八》
孝宗说 ：我也见到他走路一跛一曳的。 左补阙薛叔似也上奏声援朱熹，于是让他仍旧担任原来的职务江西提刑。
上曰： 朕亦见其跛曳。 左补阙薛叔似亦奏援熹，乃令依旧职江西提刑。
Xiaozong said, “I also saw him walking with a limp.” The Left Bujue, Xue Shuji, also submitted a memorial in support of Zhu Xi, so the emperor allowed him to retain his former position of Ti Xing of Jiangxi.
