嵬名山之內附，繼世先知之，遣其子克懃報种諤，諤用是取綏州。 When Weiming Shan defected, Jishi learned of it first and sent his son Keqin to inform Chong E, who thereby captured Suizhou.

繼世以騎步萬軍於懷寧砦，入晉祠谷，往銀川，分名山之眾萬五千戶居於大理河。 Jishi led ten thousand cavalry and infantry from Huaining Fort through Jinci Valley to Yinchuan and resettled fifteen thousand of Weiming Shan's followers along the Dali River.

諤抵罪逮繫獄，以兵付之而行，遂同名山守綏州，綠功領忠州刺史。 When Chong E was imprisoned on criminal charges, Jishi was given his troops and, together with Weiming Shan, held Suizhou; for his service he was made prefect of Zhongzhou.
