浮年少有才能,頗欲厲風跡,收士心,辟召州中名宿涿郡王岑之屬,以為從事,及王莽時故吏二千石,皆引置幕府,乃多發諸郡倉谷,稟贍其妻子。 Still young and talented, Zhu Fu sought to burnish his name and rally local elite support: he recruited notable figures such as Wang Cen of Zhuojun as staff officers and drew former Wang Mang–era commandery governors into his headquarters, then drew heavily on commandery granaries to provision their families.
南至良鄉,其兵長反遮之,浮恐不得脫,乃下馬刺殺其妻,僅以身免,城降於寵,尚書令侯霸奏浮敗亂幽州,構成寵罪,徒勞軍師,不能死節,罪當伏誅。 Southward, on reaching Liangxiang, his troop chief turned and blocked him. Fearing he could not escape, Zhu Fu dismounted and stabbed his wife to death, barely escaping with his life alone. The city fell to Peng Chong. Minister Secretary Hou Ba accused him of ruining Youzhou, inventing charges against Peng Chong, wasting the army, and failing to die with honor—all capital offenses.
