於是，兩省軍入鄧，遣提控劉天山以劄付下襄陽制置司，約同禦北兵，且索軍食。 The armies of both branch secretariats then entered Deng and dispatched army controller Liu Tianshan with a letter to the Xiangyang pacification commission, proposing joint resistance against the northern army and requesting military provisions.

乃遣天山入宋。 They then dispatched Liu Tianshan as envoy into Song territory.

及天山以劄付至宋，劄付者指揮之別名，宋制使陳該怒辱天山，且以惡語複之。 When Tianshan arrived in Song with a directive—a zhafu being another name for a military order—Song commissioner Chen Gai angrily insulted him and replied with abusive language.
