元和中，淮南未平，湍心懷向順，乃急渡溵河，東降烏重胤。 During the Yuanhe era Huainan was not yet pacified; Tuan wished to defect to the Tang and urgently crossed the Qin River to surrender to Wu Zhongyin.

其妻遂為賊束縛在樹，臠而食之，至死，叫其夫曰：「善事烏僕射。」 His wife was then bound to a tree by the rebels, cut apart, and eaten; to the end she called to her husband, "Serve Pushe Wu well."

至是，重胤以其事請列史冊。 Zhongyin then requested that her deed be entered in the historical records.
