唐中和初，忠武監軍楊復光起兵於蔡，宗權遣其將鹿宴宏赴之，建與里人王建俱隸宴宏軍，入援京師。 At the beginning of the Tang dynasty's Zhonghe era, Yang Fuguang, military supervisor of the Zhongwu Army, raised troops at Cai. Qin Zongquan sent his general Lu Yanhong to join him; Han Jian and his fellow townsman Wang Jian then joined Yanhong's army and entered the capital to reinforce it.
