有呂复者，為江西行省左右司都事。 and there was Lü Fu, director of the left and right secretariat bureaus in the Jiangxi Branch Secretariat.

而復以行省命，攝長樂縣尹。 Fu, by order of the branch secretariat, was acting as magistrate of Changle County.

复亦曰：「吾世食君祿，今雖攝官，若不以死報國，則無以見先人於地下。」 Fu also said, "My family has drawn salary from the throne for generations. Though I now hold only an acting post, if I do not repay the state with my death, how can I face my ancestors beneath the earth."
