皇甫暉之亂，劫趙在禮入魏，皆此軍也。 Huangfu Hui’s mutiny that seized Zhao Zaili in Wei—all that army.

明宗入立，在禮鎮天雄軍，以魏軍素驕，常懼禍，不遑居，陰遣人訴於明宗，求解去。 Mingzong took the throne; Zaili held Tianxiong. The Wei army had long been arrogant; he lived in fear, could not rest, and secretly begged Mingzong to let him go.

明宗乃以皇子從榮代在禮，而遣魏效節九指揮北戍盧臺。 Mingzong put his son Congrong in Zaili’s place and sent the nine Wei Loyalty-and-Restraint commanders north to Lutai.
