少豪蕩，不治生貲，與裏人輔公祏約刎頸交。
As a youth he was wild and extravagant, paid no heed to making a living, and with a neighbor named Fu Gongshi he swore an oath of sworn brotherhood.
公祏數盜姑家牧羊以饋伏威，縣跡捕急出《禮記·禮運》：「大道之行也，天下為公，選賢與能，講」，乃相與亡命為盜，時年十六。
Fu Gongshi often stole sheep from his aunt's household to feed Fuwei. When the county authorities were hot on their trail, he quoted from the Record of Rites, "When the Great Way prevails, the empire belongs to all alike; the worthy are chosen and the capable employed, and sincerity is cultivated," then the two fled together and took to banditry. Fuwei was sixteen at the time.
下邳賊苗海潮擁眾鈔暴，伏威遣公祏脅諭曰：「天下共苦隋，豪桀相與興義，然力弱勢分不相統，若合以為強，則無事隋矣。
Miao Haichao of Xiapi led a band that looted far and wide. Fuwei sent Fu Gongshi to intimidate him with a message: "The empire groans under the Sui; heroes everywhere are rising in revolt, yet their forces are weak and scattered and cannot act as one. If we join together we shall be strong enough to bring down the Sui.
伏威引親將十人操牛酒謁，勒公祏嚴兵待變。
Fuwei took ten trusted officers carrying oxen and wine to pay a visit, while ordering Fu Gongshi to hold the army in readiness for any sudden move.
伏威突斬破陣，眾眙駭不及救，復殺數十人，下皆畏服，公祏兵亦至，遂並其眾，至數萬。
Fuwei suddenly sprang up and slew Pochen. The assembly stood aghast and could not intervene in time. He killed several dozen more men, and all his subordinates submitted in fear. Fu Gongshi's troops arrived as well, and Fuwei absorbed Pochen's entire following, bringing his strength to tens of thousands.
隋遣虎牙郎將來整戰於黃花輪，伏威大敗，身重創，與公祏財有眾數百，亡去，行收卒得八千，與虎牙郎將公孫上哲戰鹽城，覆其軍。
The Sui dispatched Tiger Tusk General Lai Zheng to fight him at Huanghualun. Fuwei suffered a crushing defeat and was gravely wounded. He and Fu Gongshi escaped with only a few hundred men, but as they marched they gathered troops until they had eight thousand, then met Tiger Tusk General Gongsun Shangzhe at Yancheng and annihilated his force.
初，公祏反，矯伏威令以紿眾，趙郡王孝恭既平公祏，得反書以聞。
Earlier, when Fu Gongshi rebelled, he forged orders in Fuwei's name to deceive the troops. After Li Xiaogong, Prince of Zhao Commandery, had pacified Gongshi, he obtained the rebel correspondence and reported it to the throne.
公祏反，棱與南討，青山之戰，與陳正通遇，陣方接，棱脫兜鍪謂眾曰：「不識我邪？
When Fu Gongshi rebelled, Kan Ling joined the southern campaign. At the battle of Qingshan he encountered Chen Zhengtong. As the two armies were about to clash, Kan Ling removed his helmet and shouted to the enemy ranks, "Do you not know who I am?
公祏破，棱功多，然頗自伐。
When Fu Gongshi was defeated, Kan Ling won great distinction, yet he grew rather boastful of his achievements.
公祏被禽，乃誣與己謀；
When Fu Gongshi was captured, he falsely claimed that Kan Ling had conspired with him;
後伏威令輔公祏擊子通，以雄誕、棱為副，戰溧水，子通敗，公祏乘勝追之，反為所擠，士皆走壁。
Later Fuwei ordered Fu Gongshi to attack Li Zitong, with Wang Xiongdan and Kan Ling as his deputies. They fought at Lishui. Li Zitong was defeated, and Fu Gongshi pressed the pursuit—but was in turn driven back, and his men fled to the city walls.
公祏不從。
Fu Gongshi would not listen.
輔公祏將反，患其異己，縱反間，陽言得伏威教，責雄誕貳。
When Fu Gongshi was plotting rebellion he feared Wang Xiongdan's independence. He spread false reports, openly claiming he had Fuwei's orders, and accused Wang Xiongdan of disloyalty.
公祏奪其兵，遣西門君儀諭計，雄誕始悔寤，曰：「天下方靖，王在京師，當謹守籓，奈何為族夷事？
Fu Gongshi stripped him of his command and sent Ximen Junyi to lay out the plot. Wang Xiongdan then came to his senses with regret and said, "The realm has only just been pacified. The King is in the capital. We ought to guard our post faithfully—how can we undertake an act that will destroy our whole clan?
公祏遂縊之。
Fu Gongshi thereupon had him strangled.
