《明史·志·卷六十九》
巨奸大恶，案如山积，祇要圣旨从宫中下达，就放纵不追问；有的人本来没有该死的罪，只要一张纸条便会被关进钦犯监狱，祸害特别惨烈。
巨恶大憝，案如山积，而旨从中下，从之不问。或本无死理，而片纸付诏狱，为祸尤烈。
For the most wicked and wicked people, if the case is piled up like a mountain, as long as the imperial decree is issued from the palace, they can be let go without further questioning; some people were originally not guilty of death, but would be sent to the prison of Qin criminals with just a piece of paper, and the disaster was particularly tragic.
