 陈牧:今淮北略定,然李零肆虐彭城,先生有何良策?

萧凡:臣以为,李零非有大志,但聚众为乱耳,今急之则屯聚为寇,缓之则自散,散而击之,无不克矣。

陈牧:先生之言是也,寡人谨受教。

陈牧:《礼》云,避尊者讳,自寡人君临以来,天下皆避吾讳,甚为不便,伤我赤子之心,为之奈何?先生教我。

萧凡:臣以为,前古帝王,亦不生讳其名,惟近代诸帝,妄为节制,特令生避其讳,理非通允,宜有改张,今宜依据礼典,务从简约,仰效先哲,垂法将来,其官号人名,及公私文籍,不须避讳。

陈牧:先生之言是也,寡人受教矣。

陈牧:寡人欲安天下,当以何为本,先生教我。

萧凡:臣以为,凡事皆须务本,国以人为本,人以衣食为本,凡营衣食,以不失时为本,夫不失时者,在人君简静乃可致耳,若兵戈屡动,土木不息,而欲不夺农时,其可得乎?

陈牧:先生之言是也,寡人谨受教。

陈牧:中原士民言寡人为政如何?请先生直言。

萧凡:臣闻其言大王用法太峻。

陈牧:今梁地初定,寡人不得不为之尔,君不见,吴起无恩而楚强,商鞅严刑而秦兴乎?

萧凡:臣以为,吴起丧其身,商鞅亡其家,皆残酷之致也,大王方开建大业,景行尧、舜,犹惧不济,乃慕起、鞅之为治,岂此中原士女所望哉?

陈牧:先生之言是也,寡人知过矣。
