議郎河南龐羲與焉通家，乃募將焉諸孫入蜀。
Pang Xi of Henan, a gentleman-adviser who was tied to the Liu family by marriage, raised men and shepherded Liu Yan’s grandsons to safety in Shu.
璋累遣龐羲等攻魯，數為所破。
Liu Zhang sent Pang Xi and others against Zhang Lu time and again, only to be routed repeatedly.
魯部曲多在巴西，故以羲為巴西太守，領兵禦魯。
Most of Zhang Lu’s followers were in Ba Commandery, so Liu Zhang named Pang Xi grand administrator there and put him on the northern front against Lu.
〈《英雄記》曰：龐羲與璋有舊，又免璋諸子於難，故璋厚德羲，以羲為巴西太守，遂專權勢。〉
〈The Record of Heroes notes: “Pang Xi was an old friend who had rescued Liu Zhang’s sons from peril, so Liu Zhang heaped favor on him, named him grand administrator of Ba, and let him dominate local power.”〉
後羲與璋情好攜隙，趙韙稱兵內向，眾散見殺，皆由璋明斷少而外言入故也。
Later Pang Xi and Liu Zhang fell out; Zhao Wei turned his army on Chengdu, his troops melted away, and he was killed—all because Liu Zhang seldom judged matters for himself and let rumor rule his court.
後松復說璋曰：「今州中諸將龐羲、李異等皆恃功驕豪，欲有外意，不得豫州，則敵攻其外，民攻其內，必敗之道也。」
Later Zhang Song warned him again: “Pang Xi, Li Yi, and the other generals swagger on old laurels and eye independence. Without Liu Bei to stiffen your front, enemies will strike from without and your own people from within—that is the road to ruin.”
