又以縣官事怨樂府游徼莽，而使大奴駿等四十餘人群黨盛兵弩，白晝入樂府攻射官寺，縛束長吏子弟，斫破器物，宮中皆奔走伏匿。 On another occasion, nursing a grudge against the music-house patrol officer Mang over a county matter, he dispatched more than forty chief slaves led by Jun, armed to the teeth. In full daylight they stormed the music bureau, shot up the yamen, seized the chief clerk's sons and nephews, smashed furniture and equipment, and threw the inner palace into panic.
