《左传·襄公·襄公二十六年》
子鲜没有得到敬姒的指示，就把献公的命令告诉宁氏，说： 如果回国，政权由宁氏主持，祭祀则由我主持。 
子鲜不获命于敬姒，以公命与甯喜言曰： 苟反，政由甯氏，祭则寡人。 
Zixian did not receive Jingsi's instructions, so he told the Ning clan of Duke Xian's order, saying: If you return to China, the regime will be presided over by the Ning clan, and the sacrifices will be presided over by me.
