妖人申泰芝用左道事李輔國，擢諫議大夫，置軍邵、道二州間，以泰芝總之，納群蠻金，賞以緋紫，出褚中詔書賜衣示之，群蠻怵於賞，而財不足，更為剽掠，吏不敢制。 The sorcerer Shen Taizhi used heterodox arts to serve Li Fuguo and was promoted to remonstrance councillor; troops were placed between Shao and Dao with Taizhi in overall command; he collected gold from the Man tribes, rewarded them with crimson and purple robes, and produced edicts from his sleeve to bestow imperial garments; cowed by rewards yet lacking funds, the Man turned again to plunder—and officials dared not restrain them.
