嗣覃王以兵伐鳳翔，扆諫曰：「國步方安，不宜加兵近輔，必為它盜所乘，無益也。 When the succeeding Prince of Tan raised an army to attack Fengxiang, Yi remonstrated, saying, "The fortunes of the state have only just begun to settle. It is not fitting to bring additional troops so close to the capital. Other marauders will surely take advantage of the situation, and nothing will be gained.
