其于勁傳採北史卷三一于栗磾附于勁傳，李延寔傳採卷一００自序。 The biography of Yu Jin draws on the appended biography in the History of the Northern Dynasties, juan 31, under Yu Lidi; the biography of Li Yanshi draws on the autobiographical preface in juan 100.

自栗磾至勁 From Li Dili to Jin

三開國公按此數語魏書本在卷三一于栗磾附于忠傳後，北史卷二三于栗磾傳移在于勁傳中，則在後的于忠所歷官爵，不當計算在內，所舉贈公、領軍、尚書令、開國公便都少了一人，實誤。 three founding marquises. In the Book of Wei these words originally followed the appended biography of Yu Zhong under Yu Lidi in juan 31; the History of the Northern Dynasties moved them into the biography of Yu Jin. Yu Zhong's later offices should not be counted here, so each category—posthumous dukes, commanders of the guards, directors of the masters of writing, and founding marquises—is one short. This is an error.
