崇患太祖慵墮不作業，數加笞責，獨崇母憐之，時時自為櫛沐，戒家人曰：「朱三非常人也，宜善遇之！」 Chong hated Taizu’s idleness and beat him often; only Chong’s mother pitied him, bathing and combing his hair herself, and told the family: “Zhu the Third is no ordinary man—treat him kindly!”

使者具道太祖所以然，后乃驚喜泣下，與崇母俱載以歸，封晉國太夫人。 The envoy told the whole story; the empress wept for joy. She and Chong’s mother rode back together, and she was created Grand Lady of Jin.
