《三国志·魏书·辛毗杨阜高堂隆传》
辛毗的儿子辛敞劝说： 现在刘放、孙资当权，众人都像影子一样依附他么，父亲应该稍稍屈尊，收敛锋芒，多和他们来往；不然一定会出现诽谤您的言论。 
毗子敞谏曰： 今刘、孙用事，众皆影附，大人宜小降意，和光同尘；不然必有谤言。 
Xinpi's son Xin Chang advised: Now Liu Fang and Sun Zi are in power, everyone is like a shadow attached to them, father should be a little condescending, restrain his edge, and interact more with them; otherwise, there will definitely be slanderous remarks.
