時征西將軍馬騰屯郿而反，焉及範與騰通謀，引兵襲長安。 When Ma Teng, general who conquers the west, rose in rebellion from his camp at Mei, Liu Yan and Liu Fan conspired with him to strike Chang’an.

範謀洩，奔槐里，騰敗，退還涼州，範應時見殺，於是收誕行刑。 The plot unraveled: Fan fled to Huaili; Ma Teng was beaten back into Liangzhou; Fan was caught and killed, and Dan went to the executioner’s block.

〈《英雄記》曰：範從長安亡之馬騰營，從焉求兵。〈The Record of Heroes says: Fan slipped out of Chang’an to Ma Teng’s camp and begged his father for reinforcements.
