In the twenty-ninth year, in the first month of spring, on the jiawu new moon, court audience was waived because of a solar eclipse. During the eclipse, solar paraselenae appeared to left and right, with a corona above. On bingshen day the Yunnan branch secretariat said, "After Luodian submitted, it was changed to Puding Prefecture and for more than thirty years was subordinate to Yunnan Province. Now the Luodian pacification and assuagement commission has newly been created and subordinated to Hunan Province; this is inconvenient; we request it be abolished and its territory again be subordinated to Yunnan Province. An edict said, "Approved." On wuxu day Qing Prefecture suffered famine; 47,800 shi of grain was issued from Ling Prefecture to relieve it. On jihai day Director of the Astronomy Bureau Guo Shoujing was ordered concurrently to superintend the directorate of waterways; eight posts were still established — vice director, assistant director, recorder, and clerk. The Eight Crafts Office had formerly had six officials by regulation; now it was divided into left and right offices, with two posts added. On gengzi day Jiangxi branch secretariat left vice chancellor Gao Xing said, "In Jiangxi and in Ting and Zhang of Fujian, bandits have risen year after year; the common people have entered the mountains to escape; we request an imperial order to summon and instruct them to return to their occupations. Fujian salt revenues have both a transport commission and four salt commissioner's offices; if now a supervisory office is established to oversee salt revenues exclusively, and wine tax revenues are all returned to the regular offices, that would be convenient. Fujian silver and iron likewise each had supervisory offices established — this too is redundant; we request they be abolished. An edict approved all of this. Merchants were forbidden privately to take gold and silver to sea. On renyin day, because of the Wuping earthquake, last year's tax of 4,536 ingots was remitted in full; this year a measured levy was collected — only 2,569 ingots were levied. On guimao day yuhanchi Arigh was ordered to establish a relay station at Yong Prefecture for the convenience of grain supplies, while light troops were returned to garrison Siming Prefecture. The Han Celestial Master Zhang Zongyan's son Yudi was made to succeed to his office. The director of the Liyong Directorate was promoted to rank 3a. On jiachen day an edict said, "For school lands of prefectures and counties in Jiangnan, their annual income may be self-administered; aside from the spring and autumn sacrificial offerings, it shall support teachers and students and scholars without means. As for lands of examination-candidate estates, the yield shall be verified and submitted to the government. On yisi day Prince Shidu'er was granted 1,000 taels of gold. On bingwu day Henan and Fujian branch secretariat officials requested an edict using Chinese; an order directed that Mongolian language instruct Henan and Chinese instruct Fujian. The Henan pacification commission was abolished; Bianliang, Xiangyang, Henan, Nanyang, and Guide were all subordinated to Henan branch secretariat. De'an, Hanyang, and Xinyang of Huguang Province were again cut away and subordinated to Jinghu North Circuit; Qi and Huang to Huai West Circuit; and all three pacification commissions of Huai East Circuit were subordinated to Henan Province. Its Jinghu North Circuit pacification commission had formerly governed Chen, Yuan, Li, Jing, Gui, and Changde; these were directly subordinated to Huguang Province. Following the request of Gemman military-civil assuagement commissioner Song Zixian, an edict instructed the various cave Cat Miao of Pingfa, Dayongyan, Zijiang, Piling, Tanxi, Jiubao, and other unsubmitting places. On wushen day the moon transgressed Jupiter and the left horn of Xuanyuan. On jiyou day Xing'an and Yixing, two counties of Xing Prefecture, suffered famine; 5,000 shi of rice was issued in relief. The record-keeping offices of Nanxiong, Shaozhou, and Huizhou circuits were abolished. On renzi day relay-station households from Huan Prefecture to Chicheng reported famine; notes were issued per person to relieve them. On guichou day the Four Guest Storehouses were abolished and the Hall of Joint Audience restored; five supervisory offices for weaving section-cloth were initially established. Eight Banners commander-in-chief Liu Delu said, "Fifteen stockades of newly submitted cave Miao — we request government offices be established to govern them. An edict established the Chenmeng-Lantu military-civil assuagement commission. Jiangxi branch secretariat officials Bayan and Alawadin said, "Mengshan yields 25,000 taels of silver annually in levies. By the original regulation, for each tael of silver refined, five dou of corvée labor and land rent was remitted; now the people's strength grows daily exhausted; for each tael it is proposed to remit one shi. The Emperor said, "You heavily burden my people — how are the people to live! This was approved. On bingchen day the cave Miao of Bozhou, suspecting harm from household registration, fled and hid; an edict was issued summoning and gathering them. Acting Bozhou military-civil assuagement commissioner Yang Hanying was made pacification commissioner of the frontier regions including Shaoqing, Zhen, and Nanping, acting Bozhou military-civil pacification commissioner, and commander of ten thousand households governing troops at Bozhou and other places; he was still granted a tiger tally. On renxu day the succeeding Han Celestial Master Zhang Yudi was summoned to court.

Second month, on the jiazi new moon, the Jinzhu chieftain Saolü presented 27 horses and 27 felts each; following his request to reduce tribute horses from his jurisdiction, an edict was issued summoning and instructing him. Newly submitted Black Miao were granted jackets and sent back; they were ordered to present the finest cinnabar and realgar their land produced — if none, then stop. Envoys were dispatched to sacrifice at the Sacred Peaks and Streams, Earth Altar, and Four Seas in the Emperor's stead. On yichou day one month's grain was granted to famine victims of Longshan in Huizhou and Zhonghe and other counties in Li Prefecture. On dingmao day the Emperor hunted in the near suburbs. Palace guards receiving monthly rations and Mongol troops receiving grain because of food hardship were ordered still to be overseen by the Court of Imperial Entertainments. On jisi day the moon transgressed Net. Grain from Tong Prefecture and Hexiwu was issued to relieve famine victims of Dong'an, Gu'an, Ji Prefecture, and Baodi County. The lash to the back was forbidden. On gengwu day Woluosi received the submission of 31 cave chieftains including Shengmao of Sang Prefecture and Guzhou of Luodi, comprising 129,326 households under their jurisdiction; they came to court bearing tribute. On renshen day an order directed envoys dispatched separately to the various circuits to release prisoners below capital crimes. Ze Prefecture presented auspicious grain. On yihai day the ten-thousand-household office commanding Goryeo, Jurchen, and Han troops was established; a silver seal was issued; it commanded 6,000 troops in all. Quanfu grand minister Yiheimishi, former Deng Prefecture commander of ten thousand households Shi Bi, and Fujian branch secretariat right vice chancellor Gao Xing were all made grand councillors of the Fujian branch secretariat, commanding troops on campaign against Java, using 500 large and small seagoing vessels and 20,000 soldiers. On wuyin day the left and right campaign armies commander-in-chief headquarters were established — four commanders-in-chief and two vice commanders-in-chief. Four darughachi of ten-thousand-household offices, four commanders of ten thousand households each, eight vice commanders of ten thousand households, and four pacification commissioners — each bore a tiger tally. An edict added Grand Guardian rank to Goryeo King Wang Chun and still bestowed the title of meritorious minister. An edict directed that among those who followed Prince Atu in rebellion, Duoluodai was given to Kuolijisi, Tiediechu to Arigh, Chaorechi to Yuedimishi, and Hema to Yiheimishi, to serve in the army and redeem themselves. An edict also directed that among those who followed Prince Heda in rebellion: Nadaer to Prince Zhennan's household, Nieqilai to Helahesundarah's household, Atu to the Prince of Yunnan's household, Duaertu to Arigh's household, Balidai to Yuedimishi's household, and Woluoluo and Hulidai to the Eastern Sea. Grain from charity and government granaries was issued to relieve famine victims of De Prefecture, Qihe, Qingping, and Tai'an Prefecture. On gengchen day Yuerlu and others said, "Nasir al-Din Amir, Xindu, and Wang Juji were partisans of Sangge and acted lawlessly without restraint; paper currency, appointments, salt revenues, and wine taxes — nothing was left unchanged and unsettled. Those charged with auditing accounts in Jiangnan were all pressed with urgent payment deadlines; the people came to selling wives and daughters, and harm reached kin and neighbors. At Weiyang and Qiantang the suffering was most severe; more than 500 lives were lost without cause. At first officials and commoners still doubted whether these matters came from the state; now they know the Emperor lovingly cherishes the people — yet that the people were driven to such extremes was truly the doing of Sangge and his vicious faction; none do not wish to eat their flesh. We deliberated: these three men have already suffered punishment; we request they be sentenced according to statute to answer to the realm. This was approved. Yayimishi received 1,436 unregistered households and requested they be placed under the Eastern Palace; an edict ordered them to till fields. On xinsi day, following the request of privy council officials including Anba, at Xiangyang 637 Qarluq households of Quxiantalin were given farm implements and seed grain to farm and live by their labor. On dinghai day Wang Weihe was made convenient general commander of the 24 places including Gongchang, concurrently prefect of Gongchang, and still bore a tiger tally. The censorate — Yuerlu, Cui Yu, and others — said, "Feng Zizhen and Liu Daoyuan pointed out the crimes of Sangge's colleagues; an edict ordered secretariat and censorate officials together with Dong Wenyong, Liu Mengyan, and others to deliberate. One matter: among Hanlin officials who compiled the 《Stele of Sangge's Auxiliary Governance》, surveillance commissioner Yan Fu has recently been dismissed from office; as for the rest, we request the sage decision. The Emperor said, "Let the dead be unmentioned; as for those who live, punishment cannot be forgiven. Taibuhua and others were requested as envoys to Burma; an edict ordered them remotely conferred as left vice chancellors. At court it was deliberated that a minister of revenue should handle affairs, with his deputy serving as a bureau director. An edict said, "Approved." On wuzi day falconry at Hangzhou was forbidden. On jichou day Jupiter transgressed Xuanyuan's major star. On gengyin day Xuanzheng Court officials said that Nianzhenshuna, supreme Buddhist president of the various routes, should be conferred Grand Master of Palace Attendance and commander-in-chief pacification commissioner of the Tibetan regions and other places. An order directed 347 scattered Badur households to tenant idle fields at Yidu; cattle, seed, and farm implements were granted, and the government built dwellings for them. On renchen day the Shandong surveillance commission reported, "Within De Prefecture, spring brought drought and frost; summer again brought torrential flooding; famine victims ate goosefoot and tree leaves; we request relief. An order followed the Dongping precedent, issuing from nearby government granaries according to persons.

Third month, jiawu day: an edict ordered Tuohusi and Nongduchixiliemen dispatched to the Hedunnusun frontier, to consult with imperial son-in-law Kuolijisi on implementing garrison farming. On jihai day privy council officials said, "For campaigning against Jurchen Nalige, it was deliberated to select 1,000 from 3,000 newly submitted troops at Hesi Han. An edict first mobilized 500 men; the branch secretariat was to provide boats and grain; the Eastern Campaign Pacification Commission was still established. On renyin day censor-in-chief Yuerlu and others memorialized, "Recently surveillance censor Shang Hu recommended men who formerly served in the imperial editorial and censorial bureaus and were trusted by public esteem but are now outside — such as Hu Zhiyuan, Yao Sui, Wang Yun, Lei Ying, Chen Tianxiang, Yang Gongyi, Gao Dao, Cheng Wenhai, Chen Yi, and Zhao Juxin, ten men — who should be summoned and placed in the Hanlin Academy as advisers. The Emperor said, "I do not yet know them well; wait until they are summoned and then report. On bingwu day central secretariat officials said, "The capital region suffers consecutive famine; this year's land rent should be remitted. Shangdu, Longxing, Pingluan, Hejian, and Baoding — five circuits whose provisioning burdens exceed other circuits — should have this year's public levies remitted. River ponds in the Han regions under the Court of Imperial Entertainments — aside from those supplying the Imperial Kitchen — should have their prohibitions relaxed so the people may take food conveniently. All was approved. On dingwei day Nasir al-Din Amir, for embezzling more than 130,000 ingots of official and private notes, and Xindu, for compelling collection of unpaid debts until 520 persons were killed — all suffered execution. Wang Juji, though without illicit gains, the Emperor because he shared Xindu's wickedness had him executed as well. The central secretariat and censorate jointly fixed 13 grades of corruption offenses — five involving perversion of law, eight not involving perversion of law; offenses meriting death were reported upward. An edict said, "Approved." On wushen day, because the people of Weining, Chang, and other prefectures suffered famine, 2,000 ingots of notes were issued in relief. On jiyou day grand agriculture commissioner and Court of Imperial Entertainments deputy commissioner concurrently superintending the Imperial Kitchen Directorate Tiege, and Hanlin Academician Grand Preceptor and Bureau of Transmission commissioner concurrently managing the Imperial Stud Directorate Lazhen, were both made grand councillors of the central secretariat, concurrently retaining their former posts. Central secretariat officials said, "Right vice chancellor He Rongzu is ill; grand councillor Maishuding has long held his post; we request they be excused from signing documents, receiving only salary, yet deliberating on central secretariat affairs. This was approved. Arigh was made right vice chancellor of the central secretariat, and Liang Andula associate administrator. Central secretariat officials said, "Yixibus and Bafan-Luodian have each had a pacification commission established, yet a commander-in-chief headquarters was also re-established; the territory is very narrow while offices are many; the two commissions and commander headquarters should be merged into one. An edict approved this, and also ordered Yixibus and Si and Bozhou likewise subordinated to Huguang Province; Luodian restored to Yunnan; Woluosi and others, pacification commissioners of Bafan-Luodian, were all made commanders-in-chief and pacification commissioners of Bafan-Shunyuan and other places, bearing tiger tallies. King Chen Yiji of Annam was remotely appointed grand councillor of the Huguang circuit branch secretariat, granted a tiger tally, and resided at Ezhou.

On renzi day Privy Council officials memorialized, "The three circuits of Yan'an, Fengxiang, and Jingzhao had 3,000 registered troops; Sangge had them all dismissed to become commoners; now restore their military registration and garrison-farm at Liupan." This was approved. An edict ordered the Directorate of Waterways to inspect Yellow River dikes and embankments separately, and abolished the River Crossing Office. On gengshen day field rent of 13,793 hu was remitted for Shaoyang County in Baoqing Circuit. On renxu day land, fields, and population that had been attached to monastic quarters under Yang Lianzhenjia were restored. Initially Lianzhenjia gave heavy bribes to Sangge and on his own authority opened the Song imperial tombs, taking their jade and precious objects; in all 101 tombs were opened, 4 lives were taken, and stolen and plundered goods amounted to 116,200 ingots of notes, 23,000 mu of fields, and corresponding amounts of gold, silver, pearls, jade, and precious vessels. Secretariat and censorate officials all requested proper punishment to show the realm; the Emperor still spared his life, but restored his population and land.

五月甲午，遼陽水達達、女直饑，詔忽都不花趣海運給之。 丙午，敕：「雲南邊僥入朝，非初附者不聽乘傳，所進馬不給芻豆。」 丁未，中書省臣言：「妄人馮子振嘗為詩譽桑哥，且涉大言，及桑哥敗，即告詞臣撰碑引諭失當，國史院編修官陳孚發其奸狀，乞免所坐，遣還家。」 帝曰：「詞臣何罪！ 使以譽桑哥為罪，則在廷諸臣，誰不譽之！ 朕亦嘗譽之矣。」 詔以楊居寬、郭佑死非其罪，給還其家資。 改思州安撫司為軍民宣撫司，隸湖廣省，詔諭其民因閱戶驚逃者，各使安業。 以陜西鹽運司酒稅等課已入州縣，罷諸子鹽司，並罷東平路河道提舉司事入都水監。 己未，龍興路南昌、新建、進賢三縣水，免田租四千四百六十八石。 是月，真定之中山新樂、平山、獲鹿、元氏、靈壽，河間之滄州無棣，景之阜城、東光，益都之濰州北海縣，有蟲食桑葉盡，無蠶。
Fifth month, on jiawu day Liaoyang's Jurchen and Goryeo suffered famine; an edict ordered Hubuduhua to hasten sea transport to supply them. On bingwu day an edict ordered, "When Yunnan frontier tribesmen come to court, those not newly submitted may not use relay stations; fodder is not supplied for horses they present." On dingwei day ministry secretariat officials said, "The reckless man Feng Zizhen once wrote poetry praising Sangge, and moreover made extravagant claims; when Sangge fell, he immediately denounced the literary officials for inappropriate wording on a stele; National History Academy compiler Chen Fu exposed his treacherous conduct — we request he be exempted from punishment and sent home." The Emperor said, "What crime have the literary officials committed! If praising Sangge is to be a crime, then which court official did not praise him! I too once praised him." An edict ordered that Yang Jukuan and Guo You had died without deserving it; their household property was restored. The Sizhou Pacification Commission was changed to a Military-Civilian Pacification Commission, subordinate to Huguang Province; an edict instructed its people who had fled in alarm during household inspection to each return to secure livelihood. Since Shaanxi Salt Transport Commission wine tax and other levies had already entered prefecture and county administration, the various sub-salt offices were abolished, and the Dongping Circuit River Route Intendant Office was also abolished and its affairs transferred to the Directorate of Waterways. On jiwei day floods struck Nanchang, Xinjian, and Jinxian three counties in Longxing Circuit; field rent of 4,468 shi was remitted. That month, in Zhending's Zhongshan, Xinle, Pingshan, Huolu, Yuanshi, and Lingshou; Hejian's Cangzhou and Wudi; Jing's Fucheng and Dongguang; and Yidu Circuit's Weizhou Beihai County, insects ate mulberry leaves completely and there were no silkworms.

Now calculate kesig, kelyan, shibochi, and halaqi—altogether the close attendants: the upper grade at a rate of 200 households, the middle half that, the lower again half; among the lower grade choose the poorest for added annual grants, and the imbalance will be removed. Revenue for the year totals 2,978,305 ingots; this year only 1,893,993 ingots have been collected; of these some have not yet reached the capital and are en route, and some have already been issued to armies, textile workshops, post stations, and salaries—from spring until now 3,638,543 ingots have been spent; expenditure already exceeds revenue by 660,238 ingots.
