《梁书·列传·卷四十九》
假如是侨居的北方人任职，应加存问安抚，但应严格控制他们的俸禄，禁止他们妨碍政务，衹是授予虚职而已。
若侨杂伧楚，应在绥附，正宜严断禄力，绝其妨正，直乞虚号而已。
If he is a northerner holding a position, then he should be given care and comfort, but their salaries should be strictly controlled, and they should not be allowed to interfere with political affairs, but only be given nominal positions.
