    劉岱為黃巾所殺。太祖臨兗州,辟昱。昱將行,其鄉人謂曰:「何前後之相背也!」昱笑而不應。太祖與語,說之,以昱守壽張令。太祖征徐州,使昱與荀彧留守鄄城。張邈等叛迎呂布,郡縣響應,唯鄄城、范、東阿不動。布軍降者,言陳宮欲自將兵取東阿,又使氾嶷取范,吏民皆恐。彧謂昱曰:「今兗州反,唯有此三城。宮等以重兵臨之,非有以深結其心,三城必動。君,民之望也,歸而說之,殆可!」昱乃歸,過范,說其令靳允曰:「聞呂布執君母弟妻子,孝子誠不可為心!今天下大亂,英雄並起,必有命世,能息天下之亂者,此智者所詳擇也。得主者昌,失主者亡。陳宮叛迎呂布而百城皆應,似能有為,然以君觀之,布何如人哉!夫布,粗中少親,剛而無禮,匹夫之雄耳。宮等以勢假合,不能相君也。兵雖眾,終必無成。曹使君智略不世出,殆天所授!君必固范,我守東阿,則田單之功可立也。孰與違忠從惡而母子俱亡乎?唯君詳慮之!」允流涕曰:「不敢有二心。」時氾嶷已在縣,允乃見嶷,伏兵刺殺之,歸勒兵守。〈徐眾評曰:允於曹公,未成君臣。母,至親也,於義應去。昔王陵母為項羽所拘,母以高祖必得天下,因自殺以固陵志。明心無所繫,然後可得成事人盡死之節。衛公子開方仕齊,積年不歸,管仲以為不懷其親,安能愛君,不可以為相。是以求忠臣必於孝子之門,允宜先救至親。徐庶母為曹公所得,劉備乃遣庶歸,欲為天下者恕人子之情也。曹公亦宜遣允。〉昱又遣別騎絕倉亭津,陳宮至,不得渡。昱至東阿,東阿令棗祗已率厲吏民,拒城堅守。又兗州從事薛悌與昱協謀,卒完三城,以待太祖。太祖還,執昱手曰:「微子之力,吾無所歸矣。」乃表昱為東平相,屯范。〈《魏書》曰:昱少時常夢上泰山,兩手捧日。昱私異之,以語荀彧。及兗州反,賴昱得完三城。於是彧以昱夢白太祖。太祖曰:「卿當終為吾腹心。」昱本名立,太祖乃加其上「日」,更名昱也。〉
