晉時庾亮誅陶。後稱。咸康五年冬節會。文武數十人忽然悉起向階拜揖。庾驚問故。並云。陶公來。陶公是稱父偘也。庾亦起迎。陶公扶兩人。悉是舊怨。傳詔左右數十人皆操伏戈。陶公謂庾曰。老僕舉君自代。不圖此恩反戮其孤。故來相問。陶稱何罪。身已得訟於帝矣。庾不得一言。遂寢疾入年一日死（右此八驗出怨魂志）。

> During the Jin dynasty, Yu Liang executed Tao Chen. Later, at the winter solstice gathering in the fifth year of the Xiankang era \[339 CE\], dozens of civil and military officials suddenly all arose and bowed toward the steps. Yu, startled, asked the reason, and they all said, 'Duke Tao has arrived.' Duke Tao was Chen's father, Kan. Yu also rose to welcome him. Duke Tao was supported by two men, both of whom were victims of old grudges; the heralds and dozens of attendants all held concealed daggers. Duke Tao said to Yu: 'This old servant recommended you to succeed me; I never imagined that in return for this favor, you would slaughter my orphan. Therefore, I have come to question you: what crime did Tao Chen commit? I have already presented my plea to the Sovereign on High.' Yu could not utter a single word; he then took to his bed with illness and died on the first day of the new year. (The above eight testaments are drawn from the \*Yuanhun zhi\* \[Records of Vengeful Spirits\]).
