異頻遣其長史王澌為使入朝，澌每言朝廷虛弱，異信之，雖外示臣節，恆懷兩端，與王琳自鄱陽信安嶺潛通信使。 Yi repeatedly sent his chief steward Wang Si to court as envoy. Si always reported that the court was weak, and Yi believed him; though he outwardly observed a subject's duties, he kept two minds and secretly exchanged messengers with Wang Lin by way of Xin'an Ridge at Poyang.
