值漢初定，與民無禁，當孝惠、高后時，以財雄邊，出入弋獵，旌旗鼓吹，年百餘歲，以壽終，故北方多以「壹」為字者。 It happened when Han had only just been settled and there were no restraints on the people. During the reigns of Emperor Xiaohui and Empress Gao, he dominated the frontier by his wealth; when he went out hawking and hunting, he used banners, flags, drums, and pipes. He lived more than a hundred years and died of old age, so many northerners used the character "Yi" in their names.
