先是，江西行省平章政事道童以寬容為政，軍民懈馳。 Earlier the Jiangxi Regional Chancellor Daotong had governed with excessive leniency, and both troops and civilians had grown slack.

時所隸郡縣多陷於賊，乃與平章政事、司徒道童協謀殫力，以定守禦招捕之策，就除本道廉訪使。 Many prefectures and counties under his jurisdiction had fallen to rebels; he joined Regional Chancellor Daotong in planning defense and pacification with all their strength, and was appointed Surveillance Commissioner of the circuit.
