詔捕教首劉之協，久不獲。 An imperial order had gone out to capture the sect leader Liu Zhixie, but for a long time no one could find him.

俄二人入城飲肆中，有識之者，其一即之協。 Soon the pair entered town and stopped at a tavern. Someone recognized them—and one of the men was Zhixie himself.

會捕逆匪劉第五，誤系同姓名者，坐失察降調，上念其擒劉之協功，許捐復原職。 During the hunt for the rebel Liu Diwu he arrested the wrong man—someone who merely shared the name. Demoted for negligence, he was allowed to buy his way back to his former rank in recognition of his earlier capture of Liu Zhixie.

在葉手擒劉之協，名聞天下。 His capture of Liu Zhixie at Ye County made his name known throughout the empire.

從總督赴安徽察治劉之協逆黨，株連數百人，多所省釋。 He accompanied the governor-general to Anhui to investigate Liu Zhixie's associates. Hundreds were implicated, but Ergenge secured the release of many who had been swept up unjustly.

他如硃爾漢之保鞏昌，楊頀之清叛產、撫難民，廖寅之擒劉之協，皆卓有建樹。 Others too made distinguished contributions: Zhu Erhan's defense of Gongchang, Yang Hu's sorting of rebel property and relief of refugees, and Liao Yin's capture of Liu Zhixie.
