有謝異者，頗知廢興，梁、陳之際，言無不驗，江南人甚敬信之。 A man named Xie Yi was skilled at reading the rise and fall of states. In the transition between Liang and Chen, nothing he said failed to come true, and the people of Jiangnan greatly revered him.

及陳主被擒，異奔於瓛，由是益為眾所歸。 When the Chen ruler was captured, Yi fled to Huan, and Huan gained still more support.
