詔遣中朝大司馬車騎將軍韓增、諸吏富平侯張延壽、光祿勳楊惲、太僕戴長樂問望之計策，望之對曰：「《春秋》惡士匄帥師侵齊，聞齊侯卒，引師而還，君子大其不伐喪，以為恩足以服孝子，誼足以動諸侯。 The court sent Grand Marshal Han Zeng, Zhang Yanshou, Marquis of Fuping, Yang Yun, and Dai Changle to ask his counsel. Wangzhi answered: "The Annals censures Shi Gai for leading an army against Qi. When he learned that the Marquis of Qi had died, he withdrew. Yet the noble man praises his refusal to attack a state in mourning: kindness enough to win over filial sons, righteousness enough to move the lords.
