楚使子虛使於齊，齊王悉發車騎與使者出田。 Chu dispatched Sir Vacuity on a mission to Qi. The king of Qi mustered every chariot and horseman and took his guest out for the chase.

齊王曰：『雖然，略以子之所聞見言之。』 The king of Qi said, ‘Even so, tell us in outline what you have seen and heard.’

於是王無以應僕也。」 At that the king of Qi had no answer left for me.”
