元枚族人啟能等七十九人自賊中出，使為導。 Seventy-nine of Yuanmei's kinsmen, including Qineng, escaped from rebel lines and served as guides.

元枚奏聞，並言如察出啟能等已從賊，當立誅。 Yuanmei reported this and pledged that if Qineng and the others were found to have served the rebels, he would have them executed immediately.

上嘉其公當，賜緙絲蟒袍、上佩荷包，並諭：「啟能等既來歸，前此已否從賊，不須追詰。」 The emperor praised his fairness, gave him a brocade python robe and an imperial purse, and said: "Now that Qineng and the others have surrendered, do not investigate whether they had joined the rebels earlier."
