《资治通鉴·汉纪·汉纪二十九》
王莽下诏： 兹定于本年每个季节的仲月周游全国，行巡狩之礼，太官携带干粮干肉，内者令布置帐篷床席，所经过的地方不要有什么供给。
莽下诏： 将以是岁四仲月遍行巡狩之礼，太官赍Я、干肉，内者行张坐卧；所过毋得有所给。
Wang Mang issued an edict: This is determined. Every middle month in each season, I will travel around the country and carry out the ceremony of patrolling the hunt. The imperial kitchen will bring dry food and dried meat. The supervisor of the palace will arrange the tents and beds. The places I pass by do not need to provide anything.
