《资治通鉴·汉纪·汉纪二十四》
成帝下诏回复单于说： 夏侯藩擅自假称诏旨，向单于求地，依法应当处死。因为经过两次大赦，现在把他调往济南，任太守，不使他再面对匈奴。 
诏报单于曰： 籓擅称诏，从单于求地，法当死；更大赦二，令徙籓为济南太守，不令当匈奴。 
Emperor Cheng responded to the Chanyu by decree: Xiahou Fan acted presumptuously and falsely claimed an imperial edict to request territory from the Chanyu; he should have been sentenced to death under the law. Since he has been subject to the two general pardons, he is now being transferred to Jinan to serve as prefect, so that he will no longer face the Xiongnu.
