郭從義奏，處斬前巡檢使喬守溫，供奉官王益、時知化、任繼勛等。 Guo Congyi memorialized that the former inspection commissioner Qiao Shouwen and the palace service officials Wang Yi, Shi Zhihua, Ren Jixun, and others had been executed.

守溫受高祖命巡檢京兆，會王益自鳳翔押送趙思綰等赴闕，行至京兆，守溫迎益於郊外，思綰等突然作亂，遂據其城。 Shouwen had received Gaozu's order to inspect Jingzhao. Wang Yi was escorting Zhao Sizhan and others from Fengxiang to the capital. When they reached Jingzhao, Shouwen welcomed Yi in the suburbs, but Sizhan and the others suddenly rose in revolt and seized the city.

及郭從義率兵攻討，令守溫部署役夫。 When Guo Congyi led troops to attack and suppress them, he ordered Shouwen to deploy corvée laborers.

守溫有愛姬陷在賊城，為思綰所錄，及收城，從義盡得思綰之婢仆，守溫求其愛姬，從義雖與之，意有所慊，遂發前罪，密啟於郭威，請除之，與王益等並誅焉。 Shouwen had a beloved concubine trapped in the rebel city who had been taken by Sizhan. When the city was recovered, Congyi obtained all of Sizhan's maids and servants. Shouwen asked for his beloved concubine. Though Congyi gave her to him, he was not satisfied and exposed Shouwen's former crime, secretly reporting to Guo Wei and requesting his removal. Shouwen and Wang Yi and the others were all put to death.
