《新唐书·列传·卷一百一十》
郑畋考中了进士，当时年龄很小，有关部门上报录取名册，唐武宗疑心，把他的试卷要去自己看，才批准了。
畋举进士，时年甚少，有司上第籍，武宗疑，索所试自省，乃可。
When Zheng Tian passed the jinshi examination, he was very young. When the relevant department reported the list of admissions, Emperor Wuzong of Tang was suspicious, so he checked his examination paper himself and approved the appointment.
