王元泰名謀,漢嘉人也。有容止操行。劉璋時,為巴郡太守,還為州治中從事。先主定益州,領牧,以為別駕。先主為漢中王,用荊楚宿士零陵賴恭為太常,南陽黃柱為光祿勳,謀為少府;建興初,賜爵關內侯,後代賴恭為太常。恭、柱、謀皆失其行事,故不為傳。恭子厷,為丞相西曹令史,隨諸葛亮於漢中,早夭,亮甚惜之,與留府長史參軍張裔、蔣琬書曰:「令史失賴厷,掾屬喪楊顒,為朝中損益多矣。」顒亦荊州人也。後大將軍蔣琬問張休曰:「漢嘉前輩有王元泰,今誰繼者?」休對曰:「至於元泰,州里無繼,況鄙郡乎!」其見重如此。〈《襄陽記》曰:楊顒字子昭,楊儀宗人也。入蜀,為巴郡太守,丞相諸葛亮主簿。亮嘗自校簿書,顒直入諫曰:「為治有體,上下不可相侵,請為明公以作家譬之。今有人使奴執耕稼,婢典炊爨,雞主司晨,犬主吠盜,牛負重載,馬涉遠路,私業無曠,所求皆足,雍容高枕,飲食而已,忽一旦盡欲以身親其役,不復付任,勞其體力,為此碎務,形疲神困,終無一成。豈其智之不如奴婢雞狗哉?失為家主之法也。是故古人稱坐而論道謂之三公,作而行之謂之士大夫。故邴吉不問橫道死人而憂牛喘,陳平不肯知錢穀之數,云自有主者,彼誠達於位分之體也。今明公為治,乃躬自校簿書,流汗竟日,不亦勞乎!」亮謝之。後為東曹屬典選舉。顒死,亮垂泣三日。〉
