六年，遣工部郎中、知制誥鐘允章聘楚以求婚，楚不許。 In the sixth year he sent Bureau of Works Director and Drafter of Edicts Zhong Yunzhang as envoy to Chu to seek a marriage alliance; Chu refused.

允章還，晟曰：「馬公復能經略南土乎？」 When Yunzhang returned, Sheng said, "Can Lord Ma still manage the southern lands?"

是時，馬希廣新立，希萼起兵武陵，湖南大亂，允章具言楚可攻之狀。 At that time Ma Xiguang had newly succeeded; Ma Xie raised troops at Wuling, and Hunan fell into great disorder. Yunzhang set forth in detail how Chu could be attacked.
