以黃紹頗守泉州，程贇守漳州，許文縝守汀州，稱晉年號，時開運元年也。 He appointed Huang Shaopo to hold Quanzhou, Cheng Yun to hold Zhangzhou, and Xu Wenzhen to hold Tingzhou, and adopted Jin era names. It was the first year of Kaiyun.

州人共殺紹頗，迎王繼勳為刺史，漳州聞之，亦殺贇，迎王繼成為刺史，皆王氏之諸子也。 The people of Quanzhou killed Shaopo and welcomed Wang Jixun as prefect. Zhangzhou heard of this, killed Yun, and welcomed Wang Jicheng as prefect. Both were sons of the Wang clan.
