吳郡所領鹽官令蕭元蔚、桐廬令王天愍、新城令陸赤奮等，縣爲白劫破掠，竝不經格戰，委職散走。 Under Wu Commandery the magistrates Xiao Yuanwei of Yanguan, Wang Tianmin of Tonglu, Lu Chifen of Xincheng, and others had their counties broken and plundered by daylight robbers; none engaged in battle but abandoned office and fled.

元蔚、天愍還臺，赤奮不知所在。 Yuanwei and Tianmin returned to the capital; Chifen's whereabouts are unknown.

案元蔚等妄藉天私，作司近服，昧斯隱慝，職啓虔劉。 Investigation shows that Yuanwei and the others presumptuously relied on imperial favor in offices near the throne, concealed this hidden evil, and in the performance of duty opened the way to slaughter.

詔元蔚等免，思祖、鸞、文季原。 An edict dismissed Yuanwei and the others; Sizu, Luan, and Wenji were pardoned.
