晋太宗宣武帝实录6

    陈牧:寡人闻,法者,当与天下共之,故着大理寺卿荀顗,修编《晋律》以求平允,先生以为如何?

    萧凡:臣以为,死者不可再生,用法务在宽简,又当去虚务实,然今法司核理一狱,必求深刻,欲成其考课,今作此法,使得平允,岂不谬哉?

    陈牧:先生之言是也,寡人知过矣。

    陈牧:寡人闻,不详有五,何也?先生教我。

    萧凡:臣以为,损人而自益,身之不详也,释贤而任不肖,国之不详也,老者不教,幼者不学,俗之不详也,圣人伏匿,愚者擅权,天下之不详也。

    陈牧:先生之言是也,寡人受教矣。

    陈牧:今世子年已九岁,寡人欲置少保、少傅、少师以辅世子,可乎?先生以为如何?

    萧凡:臣以为大王圣明,选端士以卫世子,世子乃见正事,闻正言,行正道,左右皆正人,习与正人居之,不能无正,犹生长楚之乡,不能不楚言也,所谓少成如天性,习惯如自然也。

    陈牧:先生之言甚善,寡人亦以为然。

    陈牧:寡人闻,先王有至德要道,以顺天下,民用和睦,上下无怨,何也?先生教我。

    萧凡:臣以为,此乃孝也,夫孝,德之本也,教之所由生也,身体发肤,受之父母,不敢毁伤,孝之始也,立身行道,扬名于后世,以显父母,孝之终也,夫孝,始于事亲,本于事君,终于立身,《大雅》云:无念尔祖,聿修厥德。

    陈牧:先生之言是也,寡人受教矣。

    陈牧:寡人闻,母以子贵,今寡人君临天下,显荣祖宗,而太后不乐,何也?先生教我。

    萧凡:臣以为,为君诚难,大王置身兆庶之上,若治得其道,则此位诚尊,苟或失驭,求为匹夫而不可得,是以太后忧也。

    陈牧:先生之言是也,寡人谨受教。

    陈牧:寡人闻,曹魏多士,而今无之,何也?先生教我。

    萧凡:臣以为,王者用人如器,各取所长,古之致治者,岂借才于异代乎?正患己不能知,安可诬一世之人哉!

    陈牧:寡人戏言也,先生勿怪。

    陈牧:今楚王伐越,其果能克乎?先生以为如何?

    萧凡:臣以为,必克之。

    陈牧:何以言之。

    萧凡:越王好事虚名而少实用,世子懦而多病,兄弟乖争,楚乘其危,兵精将勇,何故不克!

    陈牧:先生之言是也,寡人亦以为然。然楚既伐越,必不能进退,我以精骑直捣庐江、江夏,楚将若之何?

    萧凡:臣以为,今西有吐谷浑,北有契丹,窥伺国隙,东有齐、燕,为我肘腋之患,兴兵远攻,未见其利,不如且安静以待之,其克越之际,必是大王兵指南阳之时。

    陈牧:先生之言甚善,南阳必为寡人所有。

    陈牧:寡人欲修洛阳宫,以制四海,先生以为如何?

    萧凡:臣以为,今天下纷扰,攻伐不断,民不聊生,王道之本,在于务农,怀远之略,莫如宽简,今入岁以来,阴阳失序,风雨乖和,是宜减膳撤悬,侧身修德之时,而更繁刑峻,缮筑不止,殆非所以致兴隆也。

    陈牧:先生之言是也,寡人知过矣。
