曰：「去年李實伐恩恃權，震赫中外，君此時逡巡路傍，江南一吏耳。 He replied, "Last year Li Shi abused grace and monopolized authority, terrifying the empire; you were then hesitating on the roadside—no more than a petty official south of the Yangtze.

今君又處實之勢，豈不思路傍復有如君者乎？」 Now you occupy Shi's place—have you not thought that someone like you may again be waiting by the roadside?"
