《宋史·列传·卷五十二》
有人说王禹翶买马时少给了别人价钱，宋太宗说： 他能拒绝李继迁的五十匹马，又岂肯少了一匹马的价呢？ 后调任扬州刺史。
或言买马亏价者，太宗曰： 彼能却继迁五十马，顾肯亏一马价哉？ 移知扬州。
Some said that Wang Yufei paid less than he should have for the horse, and Emperor Taizong of Song said: He was able to decline fifty horses from Li Jixian, how could he have paid less for a horse? He was later transferred to the post of Prefect of Yangzhou.
