Book of Rites (Liji), Section on Rites (Quli): People wearing armor do not perform the kneeling kowtow, because if they were to kneel, it would become a cuo bow (a clumsy, improper bow).

Also, Commentary on the Book of Rites (Li Shu) states it is pronounced zha (falling tone). Rhyme Assembly (Yunhui) states it is pronounced zha (falling tone). Rhyme Collection (Jiyun) states it is pronounced zui (falling tone). The meaning is the same.
