時劉守光遣愛將元行欽收馬於山北，聞行珪有變，率戍兵攻行珪，行珪遣其弟行溫為質，且乞應援。 Liu Shouguang had sent Yuan Xingqin to round up horses in the northern hills; when Xinggui turned, Xingqin attacked with the garrison, so Xinggui gave his brother Xingwen as hostage and pleaded for aid.

周德威遣李嗣源、李嗣本、安金全率兵救武州，降元行欽以歸。 Zhou Dewei sent Li Siyuan, Li Siben, and An Jinquan to relieve Wu and returned with Yuan Xingqin as a captive.
