《后汉书·列传·隗嚣公孙述列传》
月余，掾辞归，向公孙仁说： 公孙述不是等待教导的人。 后来太守以述为能，使他兼摄五县，结果这五个县政事修理，奸盗不再发生了，郡中说有了鬼神。
仁以述年少，遣门下掾随之官，月余，掾辞归，白仁曰： 述非待教者也。 后太守以其能，使兼摄五具，政事修理，奸盗不发，郡中谓有鬼神。
After more than a month, the official asked to take leave to return home, and told Gongsun Ren: "Gongsun Shu is not someone who can be guided through teaching." Later, the Governor regarded Shu as capable and appointed him to take on the responsibilities of five other counties concurrently, with the result that political affairs in the five counties improved and banditry and theft no longer occurred. People in the prefecture said that gods and spirits had intervened.
