《新唐书·列传·卷一百零六》
李钅奇叫李绅写奏疏，他坐在李钅奇面前，假装害怕战抖，以致不能写字，写几笔就涂掉，写坏了几张纸，李钅奇发怒骂道： 你怎敢这样，不怕死吗？ 
锜召绅作疏，坐锜前，绅阳怖栗，至不能为字，下笔辄涂去，尽数纸。锜怒骂曰： 何敢尔，不惮死邪？ 
Li Zhiqi asked Li Shen to write the memorial. He sat in front of Li Zhiqi, pretending to be so frightened that he couldn't write. He wrote a few strokes and then crossed them out, ruining several sheets of paper. Li Zhiqi became angry and cursed, "How dare you do this? Aren't you afraid of death?"
