《资治通鉴·晋纪·晋纪七》
司马歆将要出兵，王绥说： 张昌等小小贼寇，属将自然足以制服他们，为什么一定要违抗诏命，亲自去经受箭矢与飞石呢？ 
歆将出兵，王绥曰： 昌等小贼，偏裨自足制之，何必违诏命，亲矢石也！ 
Sima Xin was going to send troops, Wang Sui said: Zhang Chang and his bandits are petty thieves, your subordinate generals are naturally sufficient to subdue them, why must you disobey the imperial edict and personally be subject to arrows and stones?
