企道勸其理前事，汝為慨然太息曰：「吾結髮讀書，奮身一出，志在為國復仇，收還土宇，頗為諸公所知，命繆數奇，軋於權臣，今老矣，新進貴人，無知我者。」 Qidao urged him to take up former affairs. Ruwei sighed deeply and said, "From youth I studied and threw myself into service, aiming to avenge the state and recover our territory. Many lords once knew me, but fate was perverse and I was crushed by powerful ministers. Now I am old, and the newly risen nobles do not know me."
