葬明德皇后于坤厚陵，諸妃皆祔，自磐甯宮發引，趙王惟中以其母挽車先發，令張黃蓋者前行，帝呼執蓋者不應，少府監張僅言欲奏其事，帝止之。 When Empress Mingde was buried in Kunhou Mausoleum, all the consorts were buried alongside her. As the procession departed Panning Palace, Weizhong, Prince of Zhao, had his mother's funeral carriage set out first and ordered the yellow-canopy bearers to walk ahead. The emperor called to the canopy bearers, but they did not answer. Junior Palace Steward Zhang Jinyan wished to memorialize the matter, but the emperor stopped him.
