《资治通鉴·汉纪·汉纪二十二》
奏章上去后，成帝召见刘向，为刘向的心意叹息悲伤。他对刘向说： 你暂时不必再说了，我会考虑的！ 
书奏，天子召见向，叹息悲伤其意，谓曰： 君且休矣，吾将思之。 
After the memorial was sent, Emperor Cheng summoned Liu Xiang and sighed and was sorrowful about Liu Xiang’s intention. He said to Liu Xiang, “You do not have to talk about it any more. I will think about it.”
