將帥黃回、任候伯、孫曇瓘、王宜興、彭文之、卜伯興等，並與粲合。 The generals Huang Hui, Ren Houbo, Sun Tanjuan, Wang Yixing, Peng Wenzhi, Bu Boxing, and others all allied with Can.

時齊王入屯朝堂，秉從父弟領軍將軍韞入直門下省，伯興為直閣，黃回諸將皆率軍出新亭。 At the time the Prince of Qi entered and garrisoned the court hall; Bing's younger paternal cousin Yun, the Commander-in-Chief, went on duty in the Chancellery; Boxing served as Direct Attendant of the Pavilion; and Huang Hui and the other generals all led troops out to Xinting.

粲謀克日矯太后令，使韞、伯興率宿衛兵攻齊王於朝堂，回率軍來應。 Can plotted on a set day to forge the Empress Dowager's order, making Yun and Boxing lead palace guards to attack the Prince of Qi in the court hall; Hui would lead the army to respond.
