《宋史·列传·卷二百一十六》
不久父亲去世，几个兄长都营谋官职地位，唯独种放与母亲一起隐居在终南山豹林谷的东明峰，结草为庐，仅仅是遮避风雨。
未几父卒，数兄皆干进，独放与母俱隐终南豹林谷之东明峰，结草为庐，仅庇风雨。
Soon after, his father passed away, and his brothers all sought official posts and positions, but Zhong Fang alone lived in seclusion with his mother in the Leopard Forest Valley, Dongming Peak of Zhongnan Mountain, and built a thatched hut for shelter from the wind and rain.
