太宗遣青州刺史明僧皓、東莞、東安二郡太守李靈謙率軍伐文秀。
Emperor Ming sent Qingzhou Inspector Ming Senghao and Dongguan and Dong'an Administrator Li Lingqian to attack Wenxiu.
泰始二年八月，尋陽平定，太宗遣尚書度支郎崔元孫慰勞諸義軍，隨僧皓戰敗見殺，追贈寧朔將軍、冀州刺史。
In the eighth month of the second year of Taishi, Xunyang was pacified. Emperor Ming sent Cui Yuansun, a ministerial clerk in the Revenue Bureau, to commend the loyalist armies.

Emperor Ming promoted Wenxiu to Auxiliary State General.
虜圍青州積久，太宗所遣救兵並不敢進，乃以文秀弟征北中兵參軍文靜為輔國將軍，統高密、北海、平昌、長廣、東萊五郡軍事，從海道救青州。
The Northern Wei had besieged Qingzhou for a long time, and none of the relief forces Emperor Ming sent dared advance. He therefore made Wenxiu's brother Wen Jing, Northern Campaign Aide of the Central Army, Auxiliary State General over the five commanderies of Gaomi, Beihai, Pingchang, Changguang, and Donglai, and sent him by sea to relieve Qingzhou.
文靜至東萊之不其城，為虜所斷遏，不得進，因保城自守，又為虜所攻，屢戰輒克，太宗加其東青州刺史。
Wen Jing reached Buqi in Donglai but was cut off by the Northern Wei and could not advance, so he fortified the city and held it. Though attacked again, he won battle after battle, and Emperor Ming additionally made him Inspector of Eastern Qingzhou.
太宗先遣尚書功論郎何如真選青州文武，亦為虜所殺。
Emperor Ming had earlier sent Ministerial Clerk for Merit Evaluation He Ruzhen to select Qingzhou officials. He too was killed by the Northern Wei.
