《资治通鉴·汉纪·汉纪二十八》
此外，王莽知道，太皇太后仍是一个女人，厌恶居住在深宫之中。他打算用娱乐换取在太后手里的权力，于是，春夏秋冬四季，都请太后到长安四郊游览，慰问孤儿、寡妇和贞妇。所到长安各属县，都布施恩惠，赏赐平民钱币、丝织品、牛肉、美酒，每年都是如此。
莽又知太后妇人，厌居深宫中，莽欲虞乐以市其权，乃令太后四时车驾巡狩四郊，存见孤、寡、贞妇，所至属县，辄施恩惠，赐民钱帛、牛酒，岁以为常。
In addition, Wang Mang knew that the grand empress dowager was still a woman who was tired of living in the deep palace. He intended to obtain power in the empress dowager's hands by entertainment. Therefore, he invited the empress dowager to tour the outskirts of Chang'an in spring, summer, autumn and winter to comfort the orphans, widows and chaste women. He offered graces and rewards to common people with money, silk, beef and wine wherever he went in Chang'an, and did the same every year.
