五年三月，詔：「呂城至鎮江運河淺澀狹隘，監司坐視，無所施設，兩浙專委王復，淮南專委向子諲，同發運使呂淙措置車水，通濟舟運。」 In the third month of the fifth year an edict declared: "The transport canal from Lücheng to Zhenjiang is shallow, silted, and narrow while supervisory officials do nothing. Wang Fu is assigned for the two Zhe circuits, Xiang Ziyin for Huainan, and transport commissioner Lü Cong shall coordinate water wheels to restore boat passage."
