春申君列传：考烈王元年，以黄歇为相，封为春申君，赐淮北地十二县。後十五岁，黄歇言之楚王曰：“淮北地边齐，其事急，请以为郡便。”因并献淮北十二县。请封於江东。考烈王许之。春申君因城故吴墟，以自为都邑。
Biography of Lord Chunshen: In the first year of King Kaolie1 he made Huang Xie Chancellor, enfeoffed him as Lord Chunshen, and granted him twelve Counties of the land north of the Huai. Fifteen years later2 Huang Xie said to the King of Chu: "The land north of the Huai borders Qi, and its affairs are pressing; it would be better made a Commandery." And he gave back the twelve Counties north of the Huai, asking to be enfeoffed in Jiangdong. King Kaolie consented. Lord Chunshen accordingly fortified the old ruins of Wu and made them his seat.
