齊王既聞此計，乃與其舅父駟鈞、郎中令祝午、中尉魏勃陰謀發兵。 When the King of Qi received this plan, he secretly conspired with his maternal uncle Si Jun, the Chamberlain for Attendants Zhu Wu, and the Commander Wei Bo to raise an army.

於是齊王以駟鈞為相，魏勃為將軍，祝午為內史，悉發國中兵。 The King of Qi then appointed Si Jun as chancellor, Wei Bo as general, and Zhu Wu as interior minister, and mobilized every soldier in the kingdom.

使祝午東詐瑯邪王曰：「呂氏作亂，齊王發兵欲西誅之。 He sent Zhu Wu east to deceive the King of Langye with this message: 'The Lü clan has risen in revolt, and the King of Qi has raised an army to march west and destroy them.

齊王與魏勃等因留瑯邪王，而使祝午盡發瑯邪國而并將其兵。 The King of Qi and Wei Bo detained the King of Langye, and dispatched Zhu Wu to mobilize every soldier in the Langye kingdom and fold them into the Qi army.
