《宋书·列传·卷六十》
当时太祖虽然亲自处理政事，徐羡之等人仍掌握着大权，范泰又上表劝谏太祖。因范泰的儿子们反对，这个奏表终未呈给太祖。元嘉三年徐羡之等人被杀，范泰升侍中、左光禄大夫、国子祭酒、江夏王的老师，特进的官位没有变。
三年，羡之等伏诛，进位侍中、左光禄大夫、国子祭酒，领江夏王师，特进如故。
At that time, although Emperor Taizu was handling the government affairs personally, Xu Xianzhi and others still held great power, and Fan Tai presented his memorial again to persuade Emperor Taizu. Because Fan Tai's sons opposed it, this memorial was never presented to Emperor Taizu. In the third year of Yuanjia, Xu Xianzhi and others were killed, Fan Tai was promoted to serve in the Central Court, Zuo Guanglu Doctor, Guozijian Jijiu, and King Jiangxia's teacher, and his official position as a special envoy remained unchanged.
