朱友謙叛，陷同州，末帝以鄩為河東道招討使，行次陜州，鄩為書以招友謙，友謙不報，留月余待之。 When Zhu Youqian rebelled and seized Tongzhou, the Last Emperor sent Xun as Hedong-route pacification commissioner. At Shaan he wrote to win Youqian over; Youqian never answered, and Xun waited more than a month.

尹皓、段凝等素惡鄩，乃譖之，以為鄩與友謙親家，故其逗留以養賊。 Yin Hao, Duan Ning, and others had long hated him; they whispered that Xun and Youqian were kin by marriage and that he was stalling to feed the rebellion.
