《三国志·魏书·任苏杜郑仓传》
之前下属县城的诉讼案件很繁杂，县中不能判决，就都集中到郡一级来；仓慈亲自前去查阅资料，判决罪行轻重，如果不是被判处死刑的罪犯，都判处鞭刑，然后释放她们，一年中被判死罪的不到十个人。
先是属城狱讼众猥，县不能决，多集治下；慈躬往省阅，料简轻重，自非殊死，但鞭杖遣之，一岁决刑曾不满十人。
Previously, the county-level lawsuits were very complicated. If the county could not reach a verdict, they would all be brought to the commandery level. Cang Ci personally went to review the documents and sentenced the crimes according to their severity. Except for those sentenced to death, most were sentenced to lashes and then released. Less than ten people a year were sentenced to death.
