又祥符元年宴坐次圖，宰臣王旦與使相石保吉在東，寧王元偓、舒王元偁、廣陵郡王元儼、節度使惟吉在西，分班坐。 Again, in the seating chart for the banquet of the first year of Xiangfu, Chief Counselor Wang Dan and Commissioner Shi Baoji sat on the east; the Prince of Ning, Yuanwei, the Prince of Shu, Yuancheng, the Prince of Guangling Commandery, Yuanyan, and Military Commissioner Weiji sat on the west, each in separate ranks.

其元儼、惟吉是郡王與節度使，許綴親王班，竊慮當時出自特旨。 Yuanyan and Weiji were a commandery prince and a military commissioner who were allowed to join the imperial-prince rank—we suspect that at the time this came from a special directive.
