大明元年，虜寇兗州，世祖遣太子衛率薛安都、新除東陽太守沈法系北討，至兗州，虜已去。 In the first year of Daming (457) the barbarians raided Yanzhou; Emperor Xiaowu sent Xue Andu, commandant of the Heir Apparent's Guard, and the newly appointed Dongyang administrator Shen Faxing north; by the time they reached Yanzhou the enemy was gone.

亡命先已聞知，舉村逃走，安都與法系坐白衣領職，坦棄市。 The outlaws had already heard and whole villages fled; Andu and Faxing were demoted to commoners while retaining office, and Tan was executed in the marketplace.
