〈(《洛陽搢紳舊聞記》:齊王與梁祖互為中書令、尚書令,及梁祖兼四鎮,齊王累表讓兼鎮,蓋潛識梁祖奸雄,避其權位,欲圖自全之計。 (《Old Tales of Luoyang Gentry》 notes that the Prince of Qi and the Liang Founder had each served as Minister of the Central Secretariat and Minister of the Imperial Secretariat; when the Founder took four commands concurrently, the Prince repeatedly asked to yield his concurrent posts, having sensed the Founder's ambition and seeking to keep himself safe.
