時康義誠以其子事於秦府，故恒持兩端。 Kang Yicheng's son served the Qin mansion, so he straddled both camps.

義誠以明宗委遇，無以解退，乃令其子以弓馬事秦王以自結。 Favored by Mingzong, Yicheng could not resign; he had his son serve the Prince of Qin in archery and horsemanship to win favor.

秦王從榮素驕，自為河南尹，典六軍，拜大元帥，唐諸大臣皆懼禍及，思自脫，獨義誠心結之，遣其子事秦王府。 Prince of Qin Congrong was proud. As Henan governor he held the Six Armies and the title Grand Marshal. Tang’s ministers feared ruin and tried to slip away—only Yicheng tied himself to Congrong and sent his son into the prince’s household.
