其妻張氏曰：「官家以傳國寶與王氏，使如東都召友文，君今受禍矣！」 His wife Zhang said: “The emperor has given the imperial seal to Lady Wang and sent her east to call Youwen home—you are finished!”

二月，象先以禁兵入宮，友珪與妻張氏趨北垣樓下，將逾城以走，不果，使馮廷諤進刃其妻及己，廷諤亦自殺。 In the second month Xiangxian entered with the guard; Yougui and Zhang fled to the north wall and tried to scale it in vain. He ordered Feng Ting’e to kill them both; Feng then took his own life.
