孝武伐逆，玄謨遣濟南太守垣護之將兵赴義。 When Emperor Xiaowu marched to punish the usurper, Xuanmo sent Jinan Administrator Yuan Huzhi with troops to join the loyal side.

上意不能明，使有司奏玄謨多取寶貨，虛張戰簿，與徐州刺史垣護之並免官。 The emperor could not judge the charge clearly. He had officials report that Xuanmo had seized great spoils and falsified battle records; both he and Xuzhou Inspector Yuan Huzhi were dismissed.

柳元景、垣護之並北人，而玄謨獨受「老傖」之目。 Liu Yuanying and Yuan Huzhi were northerners too, yet only Xuanmo was tagged "Old Barbarian."
