陳吏部尚書姚察曰：王珍國、申胄、徐元瑜、李居士，齊末咸爲列將，擁強兵，或面縛請罪，或斬關獻捷； Chen minister of personnel Yao Cha said: Wang Zhenguo, Shen Gou, Xu Yuanyu, and Li Jushi—at the end of Qi all were ranked generals with strong armies; some bound themselves and pleaded guilt, some cut the passes and offered victory;

胄、元瑜、居士入梁事迹鮮，故不爲之傳。 Gou, Yuanyu, and Jushi left little record after entering Liang, so no biographies were written for them.

且范岫、申胄，久薦誠款，各率所由，仍爲掎角，沈法瑀、孫肸、朱端，已先肅清吳會，而足下欲以區區之郡，禦堂堂之師，根本旣傾，枝葉安附？ Fan Xiu and Shen Zhou have long pledged their loyalty; each leads his forces and forms a pincer with us. Shen Faying, Sun Xi, and Zhu Duan have already cleared Wu and Kuaiji — yet you would hold one small commandery against a great army? When the root is down, what can the branches cling to?
