《后汉书·本纪·皇后纪上》
明帝虽自己御用妃嫔有尺寸限度，而防备淫乱败政的事做得不踏实，所以章帝以下，渐渐地因色情来给予外戚地位权势，私情恩宠隆于好合缠绵之中，于是就忘记了污染腐蚀的危险。
虽御己有度，而防闲未笃，故孝章以下，渐用色授，恩隆好合，遂忘淄蠹。
Although the current emperor used his concubines with moderation, he did not take strict measures to prevent lewdness and disorder, and so after Emperor Zhang, gradually because of sexual favors gave power and position to the maternal relatives, so much so that personal favoritism and love were more flourishing than good harmony and entanglement, and so it was that the people forgot the danger of contamination and corruption.
