太史公曰：余讀世家言，至於宣公之太子以婦見誅，弟壽爭死以相讓，此與晉太子申生不敢明驪姬之過同，俱惡傷父之志。 The Grand Historian said: I read the hereditary houses' accounts, and arrived at Duke Xuan's crown prince who was executed because of his wife, and his younger brother Shou contended to die to yield to each other. This is the same as Jin's crown prince Shen Sheng, who dared not clarify Li Ji's transgression. Both disliked injuring their father's intention.
