賊遣將翟崇暉率精兵寇陳州，未還，汴軍寡，澄度不能制己，又中官薛盈珍持節至，封澄武威郡王，賜實封，乃燔賊旗節自歸。 The rebels sent general Zhai Chonghui with elite troops to raid Chenzhou. Before he returned, Bian had few troops, and Cheng judged that Xilie could no longer control him. Moreover the palace eunuch Xue Yingzhen arrived bearing credentials, enfeoffing Cheng as prince of Wuwei commandery and granting a permanent fief. Cheng thereupon burned the rebel banners and credentials and returned to allegiance.
