鴻曰：「聞過孟達許，適見王沖從南來，言往者達之去就，明公切齒，欲誅達妻子，賴先主不聽言。 Li Hong said, "I heard this while passing through Meng Da's area. I happened to meet Wang Chong coming from the south, and he said that when Da changed allegiance in the past, Your Excellency ground your teeth and wanted to execute Da's wife and children, but fortunately the First Sovereign would not listen to the proposal.

盡不信沖言，委仰明公，無復已已。」 He wholly did not believe Chong's words, entrusted and looked up to the enlightened lord, no more end."

又鴻道王沖造作虛語，云足下量度吾心，不受沖說。 Li Hong also said Wang Chong’s story was invented, and he praised you for seeing my true intent and rejecting the lie.

王沖者，廣漢人也。 Wang Chong was from Guanghan.

魏以沖為樂陵太守。 Wei made him governor of Leling.
