卽日詣闕上書曰：「徐州刺史元孚頻有表云：『偽梁廣發士卒，來圖彭城，乞增羽林二千。』 That day he memorialized the throne: "Xuzhou inspector Yuan Fu has repeatedly written that 'false Liang is raising troops against Pengcheng; I beg two thousand more guardsmen.

以孚宗室重臣，告請應實，所以量奏給武官千人。 Fu is a weighty clansman; his plea should be genuine, so I measured and memorialized a grant of a thousand military officers.

孚今代下，以路阻自防，遂納在防羽林八百人，辭云：『疆境無事，乞將還家。』 Fu now leaves his post; citing blocked roads he keeps the men for self-defense, yet takes in eight hundred guardsmen on defense, pleading the borders are quiet and begging to send them home.

尚書令臨淮王彧卽孚之兄子，遣省事謝遠三日之中八度逼迫，云宜依判許。 Director Yuan Ye, Prince of Linhuai, is Fu's nephew; within three days his clerk Xie Yuan pressed eight times for approval by precedent.

但孚身在任，乞師相繼，及其代下，便請放還，進退為身，無憂國之意。 Yet Fu, in office, begged troops in succession; once replaced he at once asked release—acting for himself, not for the state.

元顥入洛，獎受其命，出使徐州，都督元孚與城人趙紹兵殺之。 When Yuan Hao entered Luoyang, Jiang accepted his orders and went to Xuzhou on mission; Area Commander Yuan Fu and a townsman named Zhao Shao killed him with troops.
