Biography of Zhou Fu (JS061)
Fu, courtesy name Zuxuan, was Jun's junior cousin. His father Rui was Grand Warden of Anping. Fu as young was equally famous as his friend Chenggong Jian, they rose from their families together to become literary teachers for the various kings. He amassed to move to Aide for Western Dependants to the Minister over the Masses. The Minister over the Masses Wang Hun petitioned:
Fu's reasoning and understanding is clear and straight, he also has talent and ability and is a master at deciding the Nine Grades, his examinations pull to together essentials and details. Your Subject entrust and rely on his duties' fulfilment, his praise and blame being apt and fitting, and request he fill the vacancy of Gentleman of the Masters of Writing.
Allowed it.
Bit by bit he moved to Senior Clerk of the Left to the Minister over the Masses and Gentleman of the Personnel Section. His selections and recommendations were essential and compact, and discussions on his prospects increasingly commendable. He shifted to Central Assistant to the Steering Clerk and Attendant-at-Centre, and was designated Inspector of Xu province, concurrently General of the Best of the Army, Acting with the Tally. He was summoned to be Commandant of Justice.
Emperor Hui favoured Ye, and the King of Chengdu, Ying, used Fu as Interim Governor of Henan. Li Zhen, Shangguan Si, and others offered the King of Qinghe, Tan, to be Heir-Apparent, and promoted Fu to General of Guards, Recording the Masters of Writing. Fu declined and did not accept. Tan ordered Fu to combine armies with Shangguan Si. Fu understood that Si was a small person who indulged in brutality and in the end would be a traitor to the state. He therefore together with the Minister of Personnel Man Fen and others planned to together remove him. The plan leaked, and they were assailed by Si. Fen was murdered but Fu fled and managed to escape.
When Si was defeated by Zhang Fang, [he] summoned Fu to return and adminster as Governor of Henan, and when the King of Donhai, Yue, welcomed the Great Carriage, he used Ying as [General who] Leads the Army of the Centre. He had not yet gone when he moved to Colonel Minister of Personnel, concurrently Cavalier Regular Attendant, Acting with the Tally, Chief Controller of the Various Army Affairs at Mianchi.
When the Emperor returned to the palace, he set out to be General who Pacifies the East, Chief Controller of the Various Army Affairs of Yang province. He replaced Liu Zhun as General who Garrisons the East, and together with Zhou Ji and others he chastised Chen Min, wiping him out. For his merits he was ennobled Earl of Yongning.
Fu, who himself had gone through the mishaps of the era, always wished to safeguard and rectify the court's changes, his loyal feelings were sincere in the extreme. Since the King of Donghai, Yue, had not fully the steadfastness of a subject, he always told his opinion sharply. Yue deeply dreaded him. Fu observed the crowds of traitors were a blazing fire and that Luoyang was isolated and imperilled. He therefore built a strategy to welcome the Son of Heaven and move the capital to Shouchun. 4th Year of Yongjia [310 AD], he and Senior Clerk Wu Si and Marshal Yan Shi sent up a letter which said:
[We] did not consider the difficult cycle would carry on until this point! The Rong and Di invade one after the other, and the capital domain is imperilled and pressured. Your Subject on his own together with Zu Na, Pei Xian, Hua Tan, Sun Hui, and others, 30 people, humbly thought of a great plan. In all instances, as the people of Yin had the affairs of frequent moves, and the King of Zhou had the move of Qi Mountain, just now the royal capital is emptied, depleted and not possible to dwell in for long, north of the He is barren and bleak and Yao [mountain] and Han [valley] are hazardous and rugged, the Wan capital has frequently fallen and the Jiang-Han area has many troubles, at present in the flatlands the south-east is the better. The land of Huai-Yang to the north is blocked off by Tu Mountain, to the south is shielded by the Ling Peak, and famous rivers surround it in four directions, they have the strength of important defiles. This is why the people of Chu when they moved east thereupon took refuge at Shouchun. Xu, Pi and Donghai also are sufficiently defended and secure. Moreover canal transportation connects it in four directions, and there are no worries of deprivation and depletion.
Although the sagely sovereign is divinely astute, the primary supporters worthy and bright, dwelling frugally and defending restraint, and employed in guarding the ancestral temples, it is not as good as assessing the terrain and moving location, and so relish in eternal fortune. Your Subject has carefully selected 30 000 finest soldiers to serve in welcoming the august carriage. [I] on my own have called to arms the former Commander of Central Gentlemen of the North, Pei Xian, to act as Envoy Holding the Tally, Overseer of the Various Army Affairs of Yu province, and Commander of the Central Gentlemen of the East to swift as the wind proceed forthwith. Jing, Xiang, Jiang, Yang should each first transport the 4th Year's grain tax, 150 000 hu, and cloth and tabby silk, 140 000 bolts each, to provide for the great carriage. [I] have ordered Wang Jun and Gou Xi together to pacify north of the He, Your Subject and others will join forces to open the southern road. To move the capital and stop the robbers, these plans are both obtainable.
When the August Conveyance comes on tour, Your Subject ought to move to occupy Jiang province, to expand the royal boundaries. Knowing there is nothing [they] would not do is what the ancients applied themselves to do. [I] dare to be utterly loyal and sincere, in the hope of repaying one ten-thousandth. In the morning to succeed and in the evening to fall is still the ambition of a lifetime.
Yue was not in concord with Gou Xi, and Fu did not first inform Yue but straight away sent up the letter, and Yue was greatly angered. Before this, Yue summoned FU and the Grand Warden of Huainan, Pei Shou, but Fu was not willing to travel and he ordered Shou to lead the troops and advance first. Shou was disloyal to Fu and therefore raised up troops, claiming Fu instructed him on his own initiative. He had already received Yue's secret directive to plot against Fu. He then assaulted him but was defeated by Fu. Shuo withdrew to guard Dongcheng and sought help from Emperor Yuan. The Emperor dispatched the General who Spreads Power, Gan Zhuo, and the General who Establishes Power, Guo Yi, to attack Fu at Shouchun. The Grand Warden of Anfeng, Sun Hui, led a multitude in response to them, and had Xie Chi make a call to arms. Chi was Fu's former general. When Fu saw the call to arms, he, with tears flowing, said:
Surely it is Xie Chi's expressions.
Chi heard about it, and thereupon destroyed the draft. After ten days, Fu's multitudes dispersed and he ran to Xiang. He was seized by the King of Xincai, Que, The anxious frustration brought illness and he passed.
Earlier, at Hua Tan's loss of Lujiang, he went to Shouchun to rely on Fu. When Fu's army was defeated, he turned back to Emperor Yuan. The Emperor asked him, saying:
How did Zhou Zuxuan end up in rebellion?
Tan replied, saying:
Though Zhou Fu is dead, Under Heaven still has gentlemen of upright speech. Fu saw the robbers and traitors grow like vines, and the kingly power not being stirred. For that reason he wished to move the capital to loosen the state's difficulties. The elders of the regions were not of the same mind which consequently brought about their attack. Not even a season had gone past when the imperial capital was lost. If they had made to follow Fu's plan, in some cases it could have delayed the fall. Tracking back the circumstances and seeking the reality, how could he have been a rebel!
The Emperor said:
Fu held rank among [the Generals who] Conquer and Garrison. He held tight his troops in a corner of the region, when summoned he did not come, and during the danger he did not take care of it. He is also a criminal Under Heaven.
Tan said:
That is so. Fu shook his tassel at the central court and had a long standing reputation for exceptional intellect. He set out to occupy the peaks of a region and truly had the weight of special burdens. Yet lofty strategies were not lifted up, he from time to time neglected harmony, and during the danger he did not take care of it. He must together with Under Heaven accept his blame. However, to speak of him as a rebel, is it not also false!
The Emperor's thoughts started to open up.
Fu had two sons, Mi and Jiao. Mi, courtesy name Taixuan, was by nature unassuming and plain. At the time people declared him a pure scholar. His rank reached Gentleman of the Masters of Writing. Jiao, courtesy name Zhengxuan, also had talent and ability.
Chenggong Jian, courtesy name Zongshu, was a native of Dong commandery. His family had for generations been Two Thousand Shi officials. He was by nature simple and plain, did not seek glory and profit, and immersed his heart in savouring the Way, there was nothing which interfered with his aspirations. His soundless understanding was beyond other people. Zhang Maoxian always said:
Jian's pure serenity is comparable to Yang Ziyun, his soundless understanding imitates Zhang Anshi.
Later he became Gentleman of the Central Writers. At the time Fu had already become Colonel Minister of Personnel, and moved to General who Garrisons the East. Jian, since he himself, though his talent was lofty, yet was positioned below Fu, spoke to Fu, saying:
Yang Xiong was a Gentleman for three generations without being moved, and yet Wang Mang and Dong Xian ranked among the Three Ministers. Past and present follow the same principles, and that is all.
Fu was very ashamed of it. His official position reached Central Retainer to the Heir-Apparent and Cavalier Regular Attendant. At the end of Yongjia, he ran to Gou Xi, and was lost together with Xi.
[Zhang Maoxian = Zhang Hua. Yang Ziyun = Yang Xiong (53 BC – 18 AD).]

Yin Ji Chang Fen, 227 W Valley Blvd., Ste 118-A, San Gabriel, CA 91776
YJCF is pretty hardcore Chinese. It’s not that the menu is crazy adventurous or anything, but it feels like you’re in China when you’re there (not a bad thing). Everyone there was Chinese. The servers were nice but the service was different. There was a blank slip of paper and a pencil on the table. You’re supposed to put the numbers of what you want on the slip of paper. No one instructs you to do so. Everything on the menu is numbered though. It’s a good way to minimize interaction, reduce language barriers, and reduce wrong orders.
The YJCF is a chain with 30 or so locations in the Guangzhou area. They specialize in rice noodle rolls and congee (yum). There are 16 kinds of rice noodle rolls (plain, $3.25 – most are $5-$6.95/dish) that you can customize with extra meat, extra egg and extra shrimp.
* Shrimp with chives rice noodle roll ($5.95): An order included 3 small rice noodle rolls with medium size shrimp. The rice noodle rolls were the thinnest and silkiest I’ve had. There was nothing gummy about them. I was impressed with the texture of the rolls. The shrimp was tender. I didn’t see chives but they did include some Chinese lettuce. The sweetened soy sauce that they pour on every rice noodle roll order was a bit too salty. The portion was small. It’s a snack. The prices are on the high side for the portion size.
I wanted Hong Kong milk tea but they said they were sold out and recommended honey lemon tea instead.
* Lemon with honey (cold, $2.95): I asked for less sugar, so they only used honey. It was still too sweet for me.
There was a sign saying “Soft opening” and another big Cash Only sign. There was plenty of parking at Hilton Plaza. You can catch up on Chinese news while you eat. Utensils and condiments are kept at each table.
3 out of 5 stars

DW Potential Additions Tier List
So I made some spreadsheets but decided I was putting in too much work so here’s a quick summary.
I was grading on a scale of 1-5. 1 was characters I really don’t htink would add anything good, but who I thought some might suggest (like Cao Zhi, Jia Nanfeng, Pan Zhang, Zhao Guang, Zhang Ren, etc.) 2 is people who could maybe work under very specific circumstances, like a big narrative shift or a lot of related characters being added, or who might be fine but aren’t nearly as good as some other options (like Cheng Yu, Cao Xi, Wu Jing, Mi Zhu, or Gao Gan). These don’t really make the cut for discussion, so if you don’t see a name you’re expecting, I probably put them in one of those tiers for some reason.
Tier 3 are characters who would be fine. Just fine. They either did enough to make themselves noteworthy, or have enough of a connecting to existing narrative and cast that they’d probably add something worthwhile. Not the ones I’d be most excited about, but the ones I couldn’t make too many complaints over.
Tier 4 are great adds. Characters I really want to see, who could really expand the cast in worthwhile ways.
Tier 5 are characters I forget aren’t in these games already because why are they not here?
I’m not going to explain every decision here because I’m sure there will be followup questions. Yes, I’m aware that Jin is overrepresented, because it’s the smallest of the main factions.

Had dinner in Chinatown Thursday evening. This place is usually packed with at least a 20 min wait. We were the 3rd table there. We sat there for some time after our meal. The place did fill up eventually. When we paid our bill we left a 20+% tip. Gotta help out where we can. . #spazoutloud #freelanceartist #photography #cinematography #art #chinatown #newyorkcity #manhattan #food #coronavirus #covid19 #economy #asianamerican #yinjichangfen #ricenoodles #congee (at 紐約銀記腸粉 Yin Ji Chang Fen) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9uI99HjclY/?igshid=uoc1bxx5xzc3

black friday
life has been easier the last two weeks (knock on wood) post covid. we went to montreal for 5 days. i would say it was the best couples trip that we’ve had. prior to residency, my time for traveling was limited because of the working in office situation. during residency, there was a LOT of rushing/exhaustion/feelings of anxiety in general and not enough headspace to really enjoy and relax during our trips (also in addition to covid worries and extra protocols). i’m making it a point to do more slow traveling and relaxation instead of checking things off in the destination whenever we/i travel.
montreal summary:
it’s only a 1.5 hour flight but we felt transported to a whole new world the moment we got into uber and the dude spoke french/french music was playing
stayed in a sonder for the first time and got ourselves a nice studio apartment in downtown montreal (just like home, but in montreal!). i really liked the extra space/home feeling as opposed to a hotel. loved having en suite laundry, a dishwasher and sunlight in our room! it was walking distance to about half of the things we wanted to do which made it super convenient to just go out, come back home, go out, come back etc. instead of being out the entire day like how we used to do travels
i got credited back $150 for the sonder because i asked for an extra blanket and they could not provide one due to availability
utilized the sonder’s gym and dry and wet sauna
ate very very well: bar george, joe beef, liuyishou, mon lapin (our favorite), poutineville, boustan and was thoroughly impressed by montreal’s food scene and talent
enjoyed the snow and festive feelings of the city. the cold weather over there is much more enjoyable than NYC to me because the city is no where as dense
checked out the pier and went on a lovely ferris wheel ride
mount royal was an amazing “hike”/stair stepping through the snow
got a couples massage at spa diva. the ambiance is the nicest we’ve been to (got to relax in their wellness area and got complimentary tea and chocolate covered strawberries). the massage was just OK - my lady went too hard and my massage was quite painful that i wanted to punch her
watched wakanda forever (cheaper to do so in montreal than NYC lol)
found out that they have yin ji chang fen (our fav chang fen/HK milk tea spot) - got HK milk tea twice
went grocery shopping/pharmacy shopping in person for essentials (this is something we rarely do in NYC because of all the apps available here) and also got local quebec barista milk to drink!
being in downtown montreal, i was pleasantly reminded of how quiet life is outside of NYC haha. no honking, no yelling, people walking at a normal pace. uber drivers were nice, people in the city there were generally nicer/friendlier.
matt is on his day shifts this week and it’s been the easiest/best schedule wise since he started work. there hasn’t been working past 7pm, and he has left at 4pm on multiple occasions so far. this week is his birthday week as well as thanksgiving.
birthday: celebration at bobo nyc. happy hour oysters $1/piece and french food. montreal ruined us with elevating our standards for french food that this meal didn’t taste as amazing haha
thanksgiving: i planned a hangout with T so that we both wouldn’t be alone on thanksgiving day. we initially met at central park, then walked to rockefeller and then to bryant park. the macy’s day parade had just happened. this city is wayyyy too crowded on thanksgiving day and i was happy to retreat back to my studio afterwards. i picked up YJCF for our thanksgiving dinner. we got delicious holiday pies from cafe d’avignon. i got a little bit of holiday blues (i’ll also be spending majority of xmas eve and xmas alone this year) but it was way easier to manage knowing we have “vacation” again soon.
money: we’ve only had 1.5 of matt’s paychecks as of now, the next one is coming in a week. our combined monthly income has doubled since october. i can already see how easy it is to inflate our lifestyle with increased travels/spendings and end up living paycheck to paycheck again. it’s getting easier and easier to spend money and we’re walking that fine line between having fun/enjoying fruits of labor, and almost being irresponsible. it is also compensating for being deprived and having lost time to live during residency. i did say i wanted us to enjoy the first few paychecks but it is also a scary feeling for me as i was never comfortable spending money. it’s time to buckle down and take care of our personal finances and start using spreadsheets again. but, for the first time in my life, i finally felt “fuck, we’re quite rich now” LOL

Ngành du lịch New York cũng lao đao vì dịch bệnh
Mỹ New York v�� các điểm du lịch khác trên khắp thế giới đang phải đối mặt với nhu cầu giảm về phòng khách sạn và nhà hàng vì virus corona.
Don Chan, chủ một công ty chuyên tổ chức tham quan bằng xe buýt bằng tiếng Hoa đến các điểm ở Manhattan nhận 300 vụ hủy tour từ khách Trung Quốc, những người không thể đến New York trong tuần này. Hiện mỗi ngày, tour của ông chỉ có 10 đến 20 khách, so với 30 đến 40 như năm ngoái.
Bruce Zhu, chủ của China Tour Travel Services ở Flushing, Queens, đã đặt phòng khách sạn và sắp xếp tour cho 200 khách Trung Quốc trong hai tuần tới. Giờ thì khách không thể đến.
"Đó là vấn đề lớn", Zhu nói. "Chúng tôi phải hủy đặt phòng, hủy khách sạn. Chúng tôi mất rất nhiều tiền cho đặt phòng", ông đang tính sa thải hai trong số năm nhân viên của mình sau một tháng nữa, nếu tình hình không cải thiện.
Trong khi các quan chức y tế đang vật lộn để đối phó với dịch bệnh lan rộng khắp thế giới, các công ty lữ hành và đại lý du lịch ở New York cũng phải đối mặt việc thất thu vì phòng khách sạn và xe bỏ trống.
Nhiều con đường thưa vắng trong khu Phố Tàu ở Manhattan. Ảnh: NYT
"Nó sẽ là một gánh nặng tài chính nghiêm trọng", Elizabeth Chin tại hãng du lịch Fort Lee, kiêm chủ tịch chi hội New York của Hiệp hội Du lịch châu Á Thái Bình Dương, nhận định. "Các chuyến bay bị hủy bỏ. Các tour cũng thế", bà nói.
Các quan chức y tế ở New York kêu gọi mọi người không nên hoảng sợ nhưng 3 khu Phố Tàu lớn ở Lower Manhattan; Flushing (Queens) và Sunset Park (Brooklyn) đều bị ảnh hưởng không nhỏ. Tại các nhà hàng khu Phố Tàu thuộc Manhattan, nhân viên và chủ sở hữu cho biết kinh doanh đã giảm 50 đến 70% trong 10 ngày qua.
Với New York, Trung Quốc là nguồn khách du lịch lớn thứ hai, chỉ sau Anh. Tính cả nước Mỹ, Trung Quốc là nguồn khách nước ngoài lớn thứ ba năm 2018, theo Hiệp hội Du lịch Mỹ. Trong đó, New York là điểm đến hàng đầu, tiếp theo là Los Angeles.
Tại văn phòng Universal Vision in Flushing, nơi bán tour tham quan Manhattan và thác Niagara hàng ngày, nhân viên cho biết không có đủ khách để lấp đầy những chiếc xe minivan và xe buýt của công ty. Một nhân viên nói hôm thứ hai rằng họ đã xử lý hủy cho 200 đến 300 khách hủy tour tuần này.
Các khách sạn quen thuộc với các công ty lữ hành và đại lý du lịch Trung Quốc cũng cảm thấy khó khăn. Quản lý của Best Western Queens Court ở Flushing cho biết việc hủy phòng đã bắt đầu trước khi có hạn chế đi lại, làm giảm kinh doanh 25% trong hai tuần cuối tháng 1/2020.
Tourism Economics, hãng nghiên cứu du lịch, dự đoán lượng khách Trung Quốc đến Mỹ năm nay giảm 28% và chi tiêu ít hơn 5,8 tỷ USD. STR, một công ty nghiên cứu khác, cho rằng 2020 sẽ là năm không tăng trưởng của các khách sạn tại Mỹ về doanh thu trên mỗi phòng có sẵn. Dự đoán đó được đưa ra sau 9 năm tăng trưởng tương đối mạnh mẽ.
Lượng khách vốn không phải người Trung Quốc đến thăm Phố Tàu khá ít nên không thể thay thế được. Ảnh: NYT
"Không bao giờ là thời điểm tốt cho những thứ như virus corona", Carter Wilson, Phó chủ tịch cấp cao về tư vấn và phân tích của STR nói "ngành công nghiệp khách sạn của Mỹ hiện dễ bị tổn thương hơn so với 3-4 năm trước".
Sean F. Hennessey, chuyên gia tại Đại học New York cho biết tác động kinh tế của nCoV với New York có thể sẽ lớn hơn dịch SARS. Vì v��o năm 2003, Trung Quốc chiếm chưa đến 2% khách nước ngoài của thành phố. Nhưng giờ thì khác.
"Không chỉ khách Trung Quốc ngày càng nhiều mà họ còn là một trong những khách mang lại lợi nhuận nhất, cho ngành khách sạn và cho toàn thành phố. Họ ở lại lâu hơn và họ có xu hướng tiêu nhiều hơn", ông nói.
Giờ đây, ở khu Manhattan, Steve Ip, quản lý của Yin Ji Chang Fen, một nhà hàng trên phố Bayard, cho biết việc kinh doanh đã giảm 50%. Andy Wang, quản lý của nhà hàng Taiwan Pork Chop House trên phố Doyers thì nói ông dự trữ nguyên liệu trong nhà bếp ít hơn vì khách thưa hơn.

Biography of Sima Lun, Part 2
[From JS059. I had not expected it to be so ... well, you can read for yourself.]
Lun was plain and less than ordinary, without knowledge and plans, and repeatedly granted authority to Xiu. Xiu's power and domination bestirred the imperial court. Under Heaven all served Xiu and made no requests to Lun. Xiu rose from a minor scribe in Langye, amassed to office in Zhao state, and used toadying and flattery to reach his goals. When he had carried out the balancing of the opportunity [?], he thereupon indulged his treacherous plans, killing many loyal and good, to thereby show off his private desires.
The Assistant Officer to the Minister of Retainers, You Hao had a grudge with Yin Hun. Hun lured Hao's slave Jin Xing, to falsely reported Hao had disloyal aspirations. Xiu did not thoroughly investigate, but arrested Hao and the Central Corrector of Xiangyang, Li Mai, and killed them. He greatly entertained Jin Xing, and used him as controller of his private troops. The Forward Commandant of Guards, Shi Chong [JS033], and the Gentleman of the Yellow Gates, Pan Yue [JS055] both were dissatisfied with Xiu. Both were executed. And so the lordly men of the capital district were unhappy in their lives.
The King of Huainan, Yun, and the King of Qi, Jiong, since Jiong and Xiu were haughty and presumptuous, within their breasts were not at peace. Xiu and others likewise were very envious of them. They therefore sent out Jiong to headquarter at Xu, and took away Yun's protective army [?]. Yun set out [?] in anger and raised troops to punish Lun. When Yun had been defeated and wiped out, Lun was promoted to the Nine Bestowments, and added to his fief 50 000 households. Lun falsely was pretending to yield, a decree dispatched the hundred officials to go to his office and earnestly. The Palace Attendants circulated the decree, and afterwards transmitted it.
He promoted Kua to General who Consoles the Army, General who Leads the Army; Fu to General of the Garrison Army and Acting as General who Protects the Army; Qian as General of the Army of the Centre, Acting as General of the Guards of the Left; Xu to be Palace Attendant. He also used Sun Xiu as Palace Attendant, General who Assists the State and Marshal to the Chancellor of State, Leader of the Right as before. Zhang Lin and others all were put in strategic posts.
He increased the troops of the Chancellor's Office to be 20 000, similar to the imperial guard. He also secretly hid soldiers and troops, the multitude exceeding 30 000. He erected at the eastern palace's three gates and four corners flowery oars [?], cutting off the road east and west of the palace to have an outside patrol Someone spoke to Xiu, saying:
The Cavalier in Regular Attendance Yang Zhun and the Attendant Gentleman of the Yellow Gates Liu Kui desire to serve the King of Liang, Rong to thereby execute Lun.
There happened to be a change in the stars. He therefore moved Rong to be Imperial Chancellor, residing in the office of the Minister over the Masses. He shifted Zhun and Kui to be outer officials.
Lun was without learning and did not know books. Xiu likewise, due to his mean talents for cunning and deceit, was covetous, excessive, and eager for profit. They were together in setting up affairs, both were followers of perverse flattery [?]. They only contended for honour and profit, without deep plans or profound schemes. Kua was shallow, shabby, coarse and crude. Fu and Qian were ignorant, fractious, stubborn and unmanageable. Xu was foolish, talkative, light-weight and tumultuous. Yet they all were exceptionally shrewd, and mutually detested and slandered each other.
Xiu's son Hui, 20 years old, became Colonel who Shoots at Sound. He wed the Emperor's daughter, the Princess of Hedong. Mourning for the Princess's mother had not yet been set, [he?] expediently accepted the engagement rites. Hui in body appeared lacking and crude, beneath that of a slave [?]. Earlier he had sold horses to sons of rich families west of the city [?]. The hundred families soon heard of him wedding the Princess, and could not but be shocked and alarmed. [The Princess of Hedong's mother was a certain Jia Nanfeng.]
Lun and Xiu were both mislead by shamans and ghosts, and listened to advise from the bewitching and evil. Xiu made the Serrated Gates [guard?] Zhao Feng pretend to be Emperor Xuan's spiritual voice, and instructed to soon enter the Western Palace [become emperor]. He also said Emperor Xuan at Beimang was assisting and aiding the King of Zhao, and hence separately set up a temple for Emperor Xuan at Mount Mang. [He?] talked of the rebellious plan being possible to complete [?].
Used the Supervisor of Affairs for the Heir-Apparent, Pei Shao, the General of the Army of the Left, Bian Cui, and others, 20 people, as Assistant Officer Palace Gentlemen; with subordinate staff also of 20 people. Xiu and others parcelled off [?] the various armies, dispersing belly and heart.
They made the Cavalier in Regular Attendance, the King of Yiyang, Wei double as [?] Palace Attendant, setting out to receive decrees and instructions, falsely making a decree of abdication. They sent the Envoy Holding the Tally, the Prefect of the Masters of Writing Man Fen, and the Supervisor, Cui Sui, as assistants, to receive the imperial signet and ribbon of the August Emperor thereby abdicating the throne to Lun. Lun feigned yielding and did not accept. Hence the various kings of the imperial clan and the crowd of excellencies and ministers spoke of auspicious signs and astronomy to accordingly recommend him to advance. Lun therefore accepted it. The [General of?] the Guards of the Left, Wang Yu, with the [General of the] Army of the Front, Sima Ya, led armoured soldiers to enter the hall, explained [?] to the Marshals of the Three Sections, displaying accordingly power and rewards. None dared to disobey.
That night, they sent Zhang Lin others to garrison and defend the various gates. The King of Yiyang, Wei, Luo Xiu and others pressured and took by force the Son of Heaven's imperial signet and ribbon. The drip of the night [clock] was not yet exhausted, when inside and outside the hundred officials used the imperial carriage and regulated cart to welcome Lun.
Emperor Hui drove the Cloud Mother Chariot [?], with an honour escort of several hundred people, and from the Western Gate of the Flowery Forest set out to reside in Jingyong fort. The Master of Writing, He Yu the Combined Palace attendant and Cavalier in Regular Attendance, the King of Langye, Rui, and the Attendant Gentleman of the Palace Writers, Lu Ji [JS054], followed, arriving at the fort and then turned around. They made Zhang Heng guard the Emperor, utterly secluding him.
Lun, accompanied by 5 000 troops, entered the main gate himself, and climbed the Grand Utmost Hall. Man Fen, Cui Sui and Yue Guang advanced with the imperial signet and ribbon to Lun. He then usurped the rank of Emperor. There was a great amnesty, and changed the inaugural to Jianshi [“Establishing Beginnings”].
That year, for Virtuous and Good, Square and Proper, Straight Speaking, Flowery Talent, Filial and Upright, and Good Commander, none were examined. They planned for magistrates to reach the four regions and sent instructions for those being in the capital district [?]. [Those] in the Grand School 16 and above, or in school for 20 years, all were appointed magistrates. The commanderies and counties' 2 000 shi, Prefects, Chiefs and those who had resigned [?], all were enfeoffed as marquises. The commanderies' mainstays and guidelines became Filial and Upright. The counties' mainstays and guidelines became Upright and Loyal.
Used the Heir Kua, as Heir-Apparent; Fu as Palace Attendant, Great Minister of Agriculture, Acting Army-Protector and King of Jingzhao; Qian as Palace Attendant, Great General Leading the Army and King of GuangPing; Xu as Palace Attendant, General who Assists the Army and King of Bacheng; Sun Xiu as Palace Attendant, Overseer of the Palace Writers, General of Agile Cavalry, Same Ceremonies as the Three Ministers. Zhang Lin and others of the various factions all climbed to be ministers and generals, and were also ranked among the great fiefs. The remainder of the co-conspirators all leaped up in ranks out of sequence, not possible to describe them all. Arriving at the slave soldiers, they for their service likewise were promoted accordingly in rank and position.
At every morning assembly, sable-tails and cicada wings overflowed the seats. At the time people were saying of their appearance [?]: “[If there] are not enough sables, continue with dog tails.” [?]
Yet since caution moreover their favour defeated the happiness among the people's feelings [?], storages of the offices and armouries were not filled for bestowals, gold and silver melted and cast were not given for stamping. For that reason there was marquises of white tablets [?], lordly men in shame yielded to their compositions [?], the hundred families likewise knew it would not last.
Lun personally sacrificed at the Grand Temple. Returning, there happened to be a great wind. A whirlwind broke off the flag and cover. Sun Xiu had already set up affairs of the irregular. Lun respected and esteemed him. Xiu lived within the office where Emperor Wen had resided in his time as Chancellor of State. In affairs there was no great and small, he had to be consulted and then they were carried out. [As for] Lun's decrees and orders, Xiu always changed and altered them, had them taken by force, and from books with green paper made decrees. Those sometimes acted on in the morning and changed in the night numbered four [?]. The hundred officials shifted easily and moved with the flow.
At the time there was a pheasant which entered within the halls, and from the eastern stairs of the Grand Utmost went up the hall. They drove it away, it further flew to beneath the western bell. After a moment it flew away. Again when Lun was above the hall he obtained a strange bird, nobody asked knew its name. When the day turned towards evening, west of the palace there was a small boy in white clothes who said this was precisely the Liu bird [?]. Lun sent to record the small boy and together with the bird shut them in and put them the prison room. At daylight when they opened for inspection, the door was like before, but both boy and bird were missing from the place. Above Lun's eye there was a tumour [liu], at the time it was considered to be the strange bird.
At the time the King of Qi, Jiong, the King of Hejian, Yong, and the King of Chengdu, Ying, each embraced stubborn troops, each occupying a single region. Xiu knew Jiong and the others surely had different plans, and therefore selected from his person fraction members and Lun's old magistrates to be aides and assistants to the three kings and as commandery wardens.
Xiu originally had a grudge with Zhang Lin. Although on the outside they pushed each other forward in honour, on the inside he truly hated him. When Lin became General of Guards, he deeply resented not obtaining [the honour of] Opening Office. He secretly sent a note to Kua, drawing up advice that Xiu was monopolizing authority, his actions were going against the hearts of the multitudes, the meritorious subjects were all small men, he disturbed and made chaos in the imperial court, and insisted on a single time [?] to execute him. Kua used the letter to report to Lun, and Lun accordingly showed it to Xiu. Xiu recommended Lun to execute Lin, and Lun followed it. And so he requested the imperial clan to assemble in the Flowery Forest Park, and summoned Lin, Xiu and Wang Yu to enter. In that way he seized Lin and killed him, and executed his three kindred.
[Presumably, since Zhang Lin was General of Guards it was too risky just to order him executed.]
