初，元顥內逼，莊帝北幸，子建謂所親盧義僖曰：「北海自絕社稷，稱藩蕭衍，吾老矣，豈能為陪臣？」 When Yuan Hao advanced on the capital and Emperor Zhuang fled north, Zijian told his confidant Lu Yixi: "Beihai has abandoned the imperial altars and declared himself a vassal of Xiao Yan. I am too old to serve as anyone's subordinate minister."

及莊帝殺尒朱榮，遇禍於河陰者其家率相弔賀。 After Emperor Zhuang had Erzhu Rong killed, families whose relatives had been killed at Heyin exchanged ostensible condolences that were really celebrations.
