又衛後既廢，霍光追尊李夫人為皇后，配孝武廟，此非母以子貴之例，直以高、武二廟無配故耳。 Again, after Empress Wei was deposed, Huo Guang posthumously honored Lady Li as empress and paired her with Emperor Wu's temple; that was not an instance of a mother elevated through her son, but merely because the temples of Gaozu and Emperor Wu had lacked consorts.
