《史记·七十列传·酷吏列传》
像张汤处理淮南王、江都王的案件，用严酷的法律来放肆地诋毁诸侯王，离间疏远皇上的至亲，因而使各封国国王自感不安。
若汤之治淮南、江都，以深文痛诋诸侯，别疏骨肉，使蕃臣不自安。
Like Zhang Tang dealing with the cases of the King of Huainan and the King of Jiangdu, using severe laws to presumptuously slander the vassal kings, alienate the kinsmen around the Emperor, and thus make the vassal kings worry about themselves.
