子勛平定，安都遣別駕從事史畢眾愛、下邳太守王煥等奉啟書詣太宗歸款，曰：「臣庸隸荒萌，偷生上國，過蒙世祖孝武皇帝過常之恩，犬馬有心，實感恩遇。
After Zixun's rebellion was crushed, Andou sent Senior Clerk Bi Zhong'ai, Xiapi Administrator Wang Huan, and others with a memorial to Emperor Ming offering submission. It read: "Your servant, a crude man from the frontier, has lived on in the upper realm and received extraordinary favor from Emperor Xiaowu. Like a loyal beast I remember that grace and am truly grateful for it.
索兒之死也，安都使柳光世守下邳，至是亦率所領歸降。
After Suo'er's death Andou had Liu Guangshi hold Xiapi; now he too led his troops in submission.
安都謂既已歸順，不應遣重兵，懼不免罪，乃遣信要引索虜。
Andou believed that once he had submitted, no heavy army should have been sent. Fearing he would not escape punishment, he sent word inviting the Northern Wei.
永等引退，安都開門納虜，虜即授安都徐州刺史、河東公。
Zhang Yong and the others withdrew. Andou opened the gates to the Northern Wei, who at once made him Inspector of Xuzhou and Duke of Hedong.
初，安都起兵，長史蘭陵儼密欲圖之，見殺。
When Andou first raised troops, his chief administrator Lanling Yan secretly plotted against him and was killed.
安都未向桑乾，前軍將軍裴祖隆謀殺苟人，舉彭城歸順，事泄，見誅。
Before Andou departed for Sanggan, Forward Army General Pei Zulong plotted to kill Gouren and surrender Pengcheng to the court. The plot was discovered and he was executed.
安都子伯令、環龍，亡命梁、雍二州之間。
Andou's sons Boling and Huanlong became outlaws wandering between Liang and Yong provinces.
始同安都，末亦歸順，太宗以為東徐州刺史，復為虜所沒。
At first he sided with Andou, but later submitted as well. Emperor Ming made him Inspector of Eastern Xuzhou, yet the territory was lost again to the Northern Wei.
