初，荔母隨荔入臺，卒於臺內，尋而城陷，情禮不申，由是終身蔬食布衣，不聽音樂，雖任遇隆重，而居止儉素，淡然無營。 Earlier his mother had followed him into the Terrace City and died there; soon the city fell and rites could not be observed—therefore for life he ate vegetables and plain cloth and heard no music; though honored in office, his dwelling was spare and he had no designs.
