三年冬十二月，詔曰：「襄平侯嘉子恢說不孝，謀反，欲以殺嘉，大逆無道。 In the twelfth month of winter in the third year, he issued an edict: 'Xiangping Marquis Jia's son Hui Shuo was unfilial and plotted rebellion, desiring to kill his father Jia—this constitutes great rebellion and moral depravity.

其赦嘉為襄平侯，及妻子當坐者復故爵。 Therefore, pardon Jia and restore him as Xiangping Marquis, and restore the original ranks to his wives and children who would have been implicated.
