先是，子建亦屢求歸京師，至此，乃遣刺史唐永代焉，[5]豎眼因為行臺。 Zijian had already been asking repeatedly to return to the capital. At this juncture Tang Yong was sent as provincial governor to replace him, [5] and Fu Shuyan took over the mobile commission.

而東益氐、蜀尋反，攻逼唐永，永棄城而走，乃喪一藩矣。 Before long the Di and Shu peoples of Eastern Yizhou rebelled, attacked Tang Yong, and drove him to abandon the city and flee—the province was lost.

初永之走，子建客有沙門曇璨及鉅鹿人耿顯皆沒落氐手，及知子建之客，垂泣追衣物還之，送出白馬。 When Yong fled, two of Zijian's companions—the monk Tancan and Geng Xian of Julu—were seized by the Di. Learning they were Zijian's men, the Di wept, restored their stolen possessions, and saw them safely out at White Horse Pass.

乃遣刺史唐永代焉按刺史上無地名，不知何州刺史，據北史卷六七唐永傳但云「行臺蕭寶夤表永為南豳 On "Then sent Regional Inspector Tang Yong to replace him"—no place-name appears before "regional inspector," so the province is unknown. Scroll 67 of the Northern Dynasties, biography of Tang Yong, only records that "Mobile Office Xiao Baoyin memorialized Yong as Regional Inspector of Southern Bin

唐永乃由南豳遷東益，這裏「刺史」上應有「南豳州」三字。 Tang Yong was transferred from Southern Bin to Eastern Yi; the three characters "Southern Bin Province" should appear before "regional inspector" here.
