《周书·列传·卷三十一》
当时太祖筹划大业，求贤若渴，听说韦夐保持高尚志节，不愿当官，心中非常敬佩，派使者前往征召，送去任命的文书。
属太祖经纶王业，侧席求贤，闻敻养高不仕，虚心敬悦，遣使辟之，备加礼命。
At that time, the Imperial Ancestor was planning a great undertaking and was eager to seek out贤才。 He heard that Wei Hui was a man of lofty aspirations and was unwilling to become an official. He greatly admired him in his heart and sent messengers to draft him, delivering a document of appointment.
