晉太宗宣武帝實錄18

陳牧:寡人征隱士姚興而不至,蓋沽名釣譽之輩爾,先生以為如何?

蕭凡:臣以為,自古明王、聖主,必有不賓之士。伯夷、叔齊不食周粟,周黨、嚴光不受漢祿,亦各有志焉,豈可疑一人,以疑天下哉!

陳牧:先生之言是也,寡人知過矣。

陳牧:今東北戰事膠著,二將意見相左,李晟欲攻易縣,馬隆欲攻渤海,寡人當如何處置,先生教我。

蕭凡:臣以為當先下渤海,易縣聞李晟欲攻之,日夜為備,方自憂,必不能救援,馬隆兵趨渤海,出不意而至,其必驚擾,吾攻之一日,必克。拔渤海,則易縣孤,與齊隔絕,必復亡去,所謂『擊一而得二』者也。若先攻易縣,不能卒下,頓兵堅城,死傷必多。縱能拔之,其引軍還奔渤海,並兵合勢,觀人虛實。吾深入敵地,后無轉輸,旬月之間,不戰而困矣,願大王勿疑。

陳牧:先生之言甚善,寡人意決矣,兵發渤海。

陳牧:寡人聞,不出戶庭,無咎。何也?先生教我。

蕭凡:臣以為,亂之所生也,則言語為之階。君不密則失臣,臣不密則失身,機事不密則害成。是以君子慎密而不出也。

陳牧:先生之言是也,寡人受教矣。

陳牧:今有人奏聞衛將軍馬隆謀反,寡人當如何處之?先生教我。

蕭凡:臣以為此大謬也,趙國有廉頗、李牧,強秦不敢窺兵井陘;東吳有周瑜、陸遜,曹魏不敢渡江南下。由是言之,戰克之將,國之爪牙,不可不重也。驚聞戰鼓之聲,則思將帥之臣。衛將軍馬隆,護大王於平陽,下河內、據孟津、克洛都,前破羌王,威震百蠻,武暢關西,晉元以來,征伐方外之將,未嘗有也。今馬隆坐言是非,幽囚下獄,歷時不決,昔白起為秦將,南拔郢都,北坑趙括,以纖介之過,賜死杜郵;秦民憐之,莫不隕涕。今馬隆親秉節鉞,喋血千里之外,薦功祖廟,告類天帝,介胄之士靡不慕義。《周書》曰:『記人之功,忘人之過,宜為君者也。』夫犬馬有勞於人,尚加帷蓋之報,況國之功臣者哉!望大王哀憐之!

陳牧:非先生之言,寡人不悟也,當為卿赦之,以章吾過。

陳牧:寡人慾專天下之利,可乎?先生以為如何?

蕭凡:臣以為,大王好專利,而不知大難。夫利,百物之所生也,天地之所載也,而有專之,其害多矣。天地百物皆將取焉,何可專也?將欲專之,所怒必多,而不備大難,其可久乎?

陳牧:先生之言是也,寡人知過矣。

陳牧:寡人聞,行有四儀,何也?先生教我。

蕭凡:臣以為,一曰志動不忘仁;二曰智用不忘義;三曰力事不忘忠;四曰口言不忘信。慎守四儀,以終其身,名功之從之也,猶形之有影、聲之有響也。是故志不忘仁,則中能寬裕,智不忘義,則行有文理,力不忘忠,則動無廢功;口不忘信,則言若符節,若中寬裕而行文理,動有功而言可信也,雖古之有厚功大名,見於四海之外,知萬世之後者,其行身也,無以加於此矣。

陳牧:先生之言是也,寡人受教矣。
