What 诪 means
The phrase fixes the sense: 诪张 means “deceive or cheat.” Older texts also use 诪 for cursing or guessing, and sometimes in place of 筹, meaning “plan” or “strategy.”
The Book of Documents, an ancient Chinese classic, includes 譸張為幻 in a warning against deception. The early Chinese dictionary 《说文解字》 explains 譸 using 詶, a character meaning “to curse.”
