Biography

王悦。
晋书卷六十五 列传第三十五:
  悦字长豫,弱冠有高名,事亲色养,导甚爱之。导尝共悦奕棋,争道,导笑曰:"相与有瓜葛,那得为尔邪!"导性俭节,帐下甘果烂败,令弃之,云:"勿使大郎知。"悦少侍讲东宫,历吴王友、中书侍郎,先导卒,谥贞世子。先是,导梦人以百万钱买悦,潜为祈祷者备矣。寻掘地,得钱百万,意甚恶之,一皆藏闭。及悦疾笃,导忧念特至,不食积日。忽见一人形状甚伟,被甲持刀,导问:"君是何人?"曰:"仆是蒋侯也。公儿不佳,欲为请命,故来耳。公勿复忧。"因求食,遂啖数升。食毕,勃然谓导曰:"中书患,非可救者。"言讫不见,悦亦殒绝。悦与导语,恒以慎密为端。导还台,及行,悦未尝不送至车后,又恒为母曹氏襞敛箱箧中物。悦亡后,导还台,自悦常所送处哭至台门,其母长封作箧,不忍复开。
  悦无子,以弟恬子琨为嗣,袭导爵丹阳尹,卒,赠太常。子嘏嗣,尚鄱阳公主,历中领军、尚书。卒,子恢嗣,义熙末,为游击将军。
