敬翔雖聞自盡，未豁幽冤，宜與李振並族於市。 Though Jing Xiang is said to have killed himself, the wrong is not cleared—he and Li Zhen should die with their clans in the market.

是日，趙嚴、張希逸、張漢傑、張漢倫、張漢融、朱珪、敬翔、李振及契丹撒剌阿撥等，並其妻孥，皆斬於汴橋下。 That day Zhao Yan, Zhang Xiyi, Zhang Hanjie, Zhang Hanlun, Zhang Hanrong, Zhu Gui, Jing Xiang, Li Zhen, and the Khitan Sala Aba and their families were beheaded below Bian bridge.
