〈（《玉堂閑話》：晉祖在並部，嘗從容謂賓佐云：「近因晝寢，忽夢若頃年在洛京時，與天子連鑣於路，過舊第，天子請某入其第，某遜讓者數四，不得已即促轡而入，至廳事下馬，升自阼階，西向而坐，天子已馳車去矣。 (From 《Idle Talk of the Jade Hall》: While in Bing province, the Jin founder once said calmly to his guests and staff: "Recently, during a daytime nap, I dreamed that I was back in Luoyang years ago, riding abreast with the emperor along the road. Passing my old residence, the emperor asked me to enter. I declined several times, but unable to refuse further I urged my horse inside. Reaching the hall I dismounted, ascended from the eastern steps, and sat facing west while the emperor had already driven away.
