太祖立，李筠據上黨，遣使降劉鈞，鈞自將兵至太平驛與筠會，遣宣徽使盧讚入潞州監筠軍。 When Taizu established the throne, Li Yun held Shangdang and sent envoys to submit to Liu Jun. Jun personally led troops to Taiping Post to meet Yun and dispatched palace secretariat commissioner Lu Zan into Luzhou to supervise Yun's army.

讚與筠不協，鈞遣融和解之。 Zan and Yun did not get along; Jun sent Rong to mediate between them.

會筠敗，融被擒，太祖責之曰：“汝何故勸劉鈞舉兵助李筠反耶？” When Yun was defeated, Rong was taken prisoner. Taizu rebuked him: "Why did you urge Liu Jun to raise troops and help Li Yun rebel?"
