《三国志·魏书·吕布张邈臧洪传》
袁绍指使曹操杀掉张邈，曹操没有听从，还责备袁绍说： 张邈，是我们的好友，无论对错都应该有所包容。
绍使太祖杀邈，太祖不听，责绍曰： 孟卓，亲友也，是非当容之。
Yuan Shao instructed Cao Cao to kill Zhang Miao, but Cao Cao did not obey and instead rebuked Yuan Shao, saying: "Zhang Miao is our good friend, and we should be tolerant of him regardless of whether he is right or wrong."
