In the autumn of the second year of Jianyuan in the Liang Dynasty, the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor of Daliang:
King Li Changsheng of Wei led a white deer to the palace and asked, "My lords, my king has an eye disease and cannot distinguish objects. Please tell me, is this a deer or a horse?"
The whole house was silent.
After a while, he said to him, "Do you think the king is a deer or a horse?"
King Wei said: "This peerless black dragon colt!"
Everyone said: "Congratulations to the king for winning the black dragon colt!"
The king of Wei said: "All the princes are really good at hearing and seeing, and they are all loyal and good to me, Liang Liang!"
Everyone was overjoyed, except for the new emperor.
King Wei said, "Did I give you face?"
