《汉书·传·匈奴传下》
假如是因为单于刚刚即位，想亲近汉朝，到汉朝来朝拜，而不知道汉朝的态度如何，对自己是好是坏，暗地裹派伊邪莫演来假投降，看看将来的吉凶如何，如果我们接受了投降的人，那便破坏了善行，于德有亏，使单于自己疏远我们，不亲近我们边塞上的官吏；或者是有人使反问之计，想藉此在我们之间制造嫌隙，如果我们接受了投降的人，就正好中了他的计策，使匈奴人能够指责我们做得不对，责备我们理亏。
假令单于初立，欲委身中国，未知利害，私使伊邪莫演诈降以卜吉凶，受之亏德沮善，令单于自疏，不亲边吏；或者设为反间，欲因而生隙，受之适合其策，使得归曲而直责。
If it is because the Chanyu has just ascended to the throne, he wants to get close to the Han Dynasty, and came to pay homage to the Han Dynasty, but he does not know how the Han Dynasty feels about it, whether it is good or bad for him, and secretly sent Yizhamo to falsely surrender, just to see what the future fortune will be. If we accept the surrenderer, it will destroy good deeds, damage virtue, and alienate the Chanyu from us and he will not get close to our officials on the border; or someone used a counter-question strategy, trying to create a rift between us. If we accept the surrenderer, we will fall into his trap and the Huns will be able to accuse us of doing wrong and blaming us for being at fault.
