祥兄整爲廣州，卒官，祥就整妻求還資，事聞朝廷。 His brother Zheng died as Guangzhou governor; Xiang demanded Zheng's wife return assets; the matter reached court.

厥兄浮櫬，天倫無一日之悲，南金弗獲，嫂姪致其輕絕，孤舟敻反，存沒相捐，遂令暴客掠奪骸柩，行路流歎，有識傷心。 His brother's coffin floated — no kin grief; he fought his sister-in-law for goods; living and dead abandoned — robbers plundered the coffin; travelers sighed, the knowing were wounded.

兄整先爲廣州，於職喪亡，去年啓求迎喪，還至大雷，聞祥與整妻孟爭計財物瞋忿，祥仍委前還，後未至鵲頭，其夜遭劫，內人竝爲凶人所淫略』。 Brother Zheng died in Guangzhou; Xiang fought Zheng's wife Meng over goods, abandoned the coffin, and later met robbery where household members were violated.'

輕棄骨肉，侮蔑兄嫂，此是卿家行不足，乃無關他人。 You abandoned kin and insulted your sister-in-law — your family's failing, not others' affair.
