《资治通鉴·汉纪·汉纪五十二》
张鲁的母亲因会神秘的道术，经常出入刘焉家中，于是刘焉任命张鲁为督义司马，张为别部司马，派两人联合率兵攻杀汉中郡太守苏固，并封锁了益州到长安的通道斜谷阁，截杀朝廷派来的使臣。
鲁母以鬼道常往来焉家，焉乃以鲁为督义司马，以张脩为别部司马，与合兵掩杀汉中太守苏固，断绝斜谷阁，杀害汉使。
Zhang Lu's mother was proficient in mysterious Taoist techniques and often visited Liu Yan's home. Liu Yan appointed Zhang Lu as the governor of Yisi, and Zhang as the governor of Biebu. The two of them were sent to lead troops to attack and kill Su Gu, the governor of Hanzhong, and to block the Xigua Pavilion, the passage from Yizhou to Chang'an, and intercept the envoys sent by the imperial court.
