統高祖父子都，自河東遷居北地，子都子橋，以資千萬徙茂陵，至哀、平之末，歸安定。 His great-grandfather Liang Zidu had relocated from Hedong to Beidi; Zidu's son Liang Qiao took a fortune of ten million to settle at Maoling, then the family returned to Anding late in the Ai and Ping era.

至哀、平繼體，而即位日淺，聽斷尚寡，丞相王嘉輕為穿鑿，虧除先帝舊約成律，數年之間，百有餘事，或不便於理，或不厭民心。 Under Aidi and Pingdi—short reigns and thin court experience—Chancellor Wang Jia rashly chipped away at statutes Gaodi had settled; in a few years over a hundred changes either offended reason or the people.
