宋興，已下荊、潭，昶益懼，遣大程官孫遇以蠟丸書間行東漢，約出兵以撓中國，遇為邊吏所得。 When the Song rose and took Jing and Tan, Chang grew more fearful and sent Senior Process Officer Sun Yu with a wax-sealed letter through secret routes to Eastern Han to arrange a diversion against the central plains. Yu was captured by frontier officials.
