《汉书·传·王莽传中》
大司空王邑上报告说： 到职八年，工作没有成绩，司空的职务尤其近于瘫痪，乃至发生地震的变故。
大司空王邑上书言： 视事八年，功业不效，司空之职尤独废顿，至乃有地震之变。
Grand Minister Wang Yi reported: I have been working for eight years, and I have not achieved any results. The position of the Minister of Works is even close to a paralysis, even to the point of causing an earthquake.
