明宗封殷楚國王，有司言無封國王禮，請如三公用竹冊，乃遣尚書右丞李序持節以竹冊封之。 Mingzong enfeoffed Yin as King of Chu. The responsible offices said no rite existed for enfeoffing a territorial king and asked that the Three Dukes' bamboo-register ceremony be followed. Mingzong then sent Vice Director of the Secretariat Li Xu with credentials and a bamboo register to invest him.
