子準，為衛尉少卿，以鬥雞供奉禁中，林甫子岫，亦親近，準驕甚，淩岫出其上。 His son Zhun served as vice director of the Court of the Imperial Insignia and entertained at cockfighting within the palace. Li Linfu's son You was also a favorite, but Zhun was wildly arrogant and treated You with open contempt.

萬年尉韋黃裳、長安尉賈季鄰等候準經過，饌具倡樂必素辦，無敢迕意。 Wannian assistant magistrate Wei Huangshang and Chang'an assistant magistrate Jia Jilin waited on Zhun's passage; feasts and entertainment had to be ready in advance, and none dared defy him.
