四年三月，晏球拔定州，時都校馬讓能降於曲陽門，都巷戰而敗，奔馬歸於府第，縱火焚之，府庫妻孥，一夕俱燼，惟擒托餒並其男四人、弟一人獻於行在。 In the third month of the fourth year Yanqiu captured Dingzhou. Du's officer Ma Rangneng surrendered at the Quyang Gate. Du fought in the lanes and was defeated, fled on horseback to his mansion, and set it ablaze. The treasury, wives, and children were all reduced to ashes in one night. Only Tuonuo was captured along with his four sons and one younger brother and presented at the imperial camp.
