《史记·三十世家·五宗世家》
为此每当相国、二千石级官员到任，刘彭祖便穿着黑布衣扮为奴仆，亲自出迎，清扫二千石级官员下榻的住所，多设惑乱之事来引动对方，一旦二千石级官员言语失当，触犯朝廷禁忌，就把它记下来。
是以每相、二千石至，彭祖衣皁布衣，自行迎，除二千石舍，多设疑事以作动之，得二千石失言，中忌讳，辄书之。
Therefore, every time the prime minister or an official of the second thousand stone rank took office, Liu Pengzu would dress in black cloth as a servant, come out to greet them in person, clean the residence where the official of the second thousand stone rank stayed, and set up many confusing things to provoke the other party. Once an official of the second thousand stone rank spoke inappropriately and violated the taboo of the imperial court, he would write it down.
