是歲，莊宗遇弒，中國多故，延翰乃取司馬遷《史記》閩越王無諸傳示其將吏曰：「閩，自古王國也，吾今不王，何待之有？」 That year Emperor Zhuangzong was murdered and the empire fell into disorder. Yanhan produced from Sima Qian's Records the biography of Wuzhu, king of ancient Minyue, and showed it to his commanders and officials, saying, "Min has been a kingdom since antiquity. If I do not claim kingship now, how long should I wait?"
