袞以為：「漢文帝還千里馬不用，晉武帝焚雉頭裘，宋高祖碎琥珀枕，是三主者，非有聰明大聖以致治安，謹身率下而已。 Gun argued: "Emperor Wen of Han sent back a thousand-li horse and would not use it; Emperor Wu of Jin burned the pheasant-head fur robe; Emperor Gaozu of Song smashed the amber pillow. These three rulers did not owe their peace and order to surpassing wisdom and sagacity; they simply guarded themselves and led those below by example.
