Wang Changshi asked for Dongyang, but the military governor refused. Later, he became seriously ill and on his deathbed, Fujun lamented, "I will fail Zhongzu in this, and I will use him." The chief secretary said, "People say that the King of Kuaiji is stupid, he is really stupid."

The meaning of the Spring and Autumn Annals is to include one's country within and exclude other countries.

The emperor said, "Be active during the day and quiet at night." Xie Gong left and sighed, "You are no less rational than the previous emperor."
