萬領本軍兵士將助亂，會奉國右廂都指揮使盧順密亦以兵至，諭以逆順，萬不得已，與順密急趨公府，執彥饒生送闕下。 Wan was about to join the mutiny with his men when Lu Shunmi, commander of the Fengguo right wing, arrived and persuaded him of right and wrong. Wan then rushed with Shunmi to the government hall, seized Yanrao alive, and sent him to the capital.

朝廷即以萬為滑州節度使，而盧順密酬之甚淺。 The court at once made Wan military commissioner of Huazhou, but rewarded Lu Shunmi only meagerly.

居無何，晉高祖稍知其事，即以順密為涇州兵馬留後，漸薄於萬。 Before long Gaozu learned what had really happened. He made Shunmi regent at Jingzhou and gradually came to favor Wan less.
