於是華原尉侯莫陳怤以優補長安尉，當參臺，棲筠物色其勞，怤色動，不能對，乃自言為徐浩、杜濟、薛邕所引，非真優也。 At this time Hou Mochen Fu, assistant commandant of Hua Yuan, had been appointed assistant commandant of Chang'an through the "outstanding talent" quota and was due to report to the Censorate; Qiyun looked into his record, Fu's face changed and he could not answer, and he confessed that Xu Hao, Du Ji, and Xue Yong had recommended him though he was not truly outstanding.

繇是怤等皆坐貶。 Thereupon Fu and the others were all condemned and demoted.
