聞齊建安王蕭寶寅在魏，遂使人入北與之相知，謂爲叔父，許舉鎮歸之。 Hearing that Xiao Baoyin, Prince of Jian'an of Qi, was in Wei, he sent men north to establish contact, called him uncle, and promised to raise his post in surrender to him.

綜懼南歸則無因復與寶寅相見，乃與數騎夜奔于延明，魏以爲侍中、太尉、高平公、丹陽王，邑七千戶，錢三百萬，布絹三千匹，雜彩千匹，馬五十匹，羊五百口，奴婢一百人。 Zong feared that returning south would leave him no chance to see Baoyin again; with several horsemen he fled by night to Yanming. Wei made him Attendant-in-Ordinary, Grand Commandant, Duke of Gaoping, Prince of Danyang, fief of seven thousand households, three million cash, three thousand bolts of cloth and silk, one thousand bolts of mixed brocade, fifty horses, five hundred sheep, and a hundred male and female servants.

大通二年，蕭寶寅在魏據長安反，綜自洛陽北遁，將赴之，爲津吏所執，魏人殺之，時年四十九。 In the second year of Datong, Xiao Baoyin held Chang'an in rebellion within Wei; Zuan fled north from Luoyang intending to join him, was seized by the ferry clerk, and the Wei people killed him—aged forty-nine.

難作之日，前南譙太守王靈秀奔往石頭，率城內將吏見力，去車脚載寶夤向臺城，百姓數千人皆空手隨後，京邑騷亂。 When the crisis erupted, the former Governor of Southern Qiao Wang Lingxiu rushed to Stone City, rallied the city's officers and available troops, stripped a carriage to its poles, and bore Bao Yin toward the Palace City. Several thousand townspeople followed behind empty-handed, and the capital fell into uproar.

寶夤至杜姥宅，日已欲暗，城門閉，城上人射之，衆棄寶夤逃走。 Bao Yin reached Old Lady Du's quarter as dusk was falling. The city gates were shut, defenders on the walls shot at them, and the crowd abandoned Bao Yin and fled.
