初，保權之乞師也，太祖皇帝遣慕容延釗討文表，未至而文表為師璠所執。 When Baoquan first asked for aid, Emperor Taizu sent Murong Yanjiao against Wenbiao, but before Yanjiao arrived, Shilu had already captured him.

延釗兵入朗州，保權舉族朝於京師，其後事具國史。 Yanjiao's army entered Langzhou. Baoquan brought his clan to court. His later career is recorded in the dynastic histories.
