《太平广记·卷一百七十七·器量二》
邓惟恭本以为他自己应当接替李万荣做节度使，故意不派人接董晋，企图让他害怕，希望董晋不敢到汴州来。
惟恭自以当便代居其位，故不遣候吏，以疑惧晋心，冀其不敢进。
Deng Weigong originally thought to himself that he should replace Li Wanrong as the Jiedushi, and intentionally didn’t send anyone to welcome Dong Jin, hoping that he would be intimidated, and not dare to come to Bianzhou.
