義兵起，高祖夜召僧珍及張弘策定議，明旦乃會衆發兵，悉取檀溪材竹，裝爲艛艦，葺之以茅，並立辦。 When the righteous army rose, Gaozu called Sengzhen and Zhang Hongce at night to decide; at dawn the host moved out, pulled up the Tanxi timber and bamboo, rigged them as warships roofed with thatch, and had all in an instant.

建康城平，高祖命僧珍率所領先入清宮，與張弘策封檢府庫，卽日以本官帶南彭城太守，遷給事黃門侍郎，領虎賁中郎將。 When Jiankang fell, Gaozu had Sengzhen lead his men first into the inner palace; with Zhang Hongce he sealed and checked the treasury. That day he kept his rank as acting Nan Pengcheng administrator, was made Attendant-in-Ordinary of the Yellow Gate, and held the Tiger guards colonelcy.
