《汉书·志·刑法志》
像成、康时代的刑罚拦置，虽然不能达到，孝文帝时候的处理官司的境界，差不多可以赶得上了。《诗经》上说 顺应人民，受福于天 。
成、康刑错，虽未可致，孝文断狱，庶几可及。《诗》云 宜民宜人，受禄于天 。
Although the punishments of the Cheng and Kang eras cannot be reached, the level of judicial administration during the reign of Emperor Xiaowen can be nearly achieved. The Book of Poetry says, "Follow the people's will, and you will receive blessings from Heaven."
