《宋史·列传·卷一百七十》
欧阳守道说： 太上的称号，是汉高帝用来尊奉他父亲的，历朝都没有改变，如果赐封陈日照为太上国王，不合适。
守道谓： 太上者，汉高帝以尊其父，累朝未之有改，若赐诏书称太上国王，非便。
Ouyang Shoudao said: "The title of Supreme Retired Emperor was first used by Han Gaozu to pay respects to his own father. Throughout history, this has not changed. If we were to bestow this title upon Chen Rirui, it would be inappropriate."
