元海寢疾，將為顧托之計，以歡樂為太宰，洋為太傅，延年為太保，聰為大司馬、大單于，並錄尚書事，置單于台于平陽西，以其子裕為大司徒。 Fearing death, Liu Yuan named Liu Huanle grand steward, Liu Yang grand tutor, Liu Yannian grand protector, and Liu Cong both grand marshal and great Shanyu with authority over the Masters of Writing; he built a Shanyu platform west of Pingyang and kept Liu Yu as minister of education.

乃相與盟於東堂，使銳、景攻聰，攸率劉安國攻裕，使侍中劉乘、武衛劉欽攻魯王隆，尚書田密、武衛劉璿攻北海王乂。 They swore in the eastern hall: Liu Rui and Ma Jing would strike Liu Cong; Huyan You and Liu Anguo would hit Liu Yu; Liu Cheng and Liu Qin would move on Liu Long; Tian Mi and Liu Xuan would storm Liu Yi.

銳知聰之有備也，馳還，與攸、乘等會攻隆、裕。 Liu Rui saw the trap, wheeled back, and with Huyan You and Liu Cheng struck Liu Long and Liu Yu instead.

是日，斬裕及隆。 That day Liu Yu and Liu Long died.
