《资治通鉴·魏纪·魏纪一》
汉王攻吴惨败的时候，法正已经去世，诸葛亮感叹说： 如果法正仍然在世，一定能够阻止主公进攻吴国的行动；即使东下，也绝不会失败。 
及汉主伐吴而败，时正已卒，亮叹曰： 孝直若在，必能制主上东行。就使东行，必不倾危矣。 
At that time when the king of Han's attack on Wu ended in failure, Fazheng had already passed away, and Zhuge Liang could not help but sigh. He said, "If Fazheng were still alive, he certainly would have been able to stop his lordship from attacking Wu, and even if he had gone east, he would certainly not have been defeated."
