任左右張景真，使領東宮主衣食官穀帛，賞賜什物，皆御所服用。 He put his favorite Zhang Jingzhen in charge of the Eastern Palace commissaries for food, clothing, grain, and cloth; every gift and good was of the kind reserved for the inner palace.

景真於南澗寺捨身齋，有元徽紫皮袴褶，餘物稱是。 Jingzhen took a body-offering fast at Nanjian Temple in Yuanhui purple leather coat and trousers, with the rest of his gear to match.

世祖拜陵還，景真白服乘畫舴艋，坐胡牀，觀者咸疑是太子。 On Shizu's return from the tombs, Jingzhen went in white, rode a painted skiff, and lolled on a camp-chair; the crowd mistook him for the crown prince.

上明日遣文惠太子、聞喜公子良宣敕，以景真罪狀示世祖。 Next day the throne sent Crown Prince Wenhu and Prince Ziliang of Wenxi to read the edict and lay Jingzhen's crimes before Shizu.

稱太子令，收景真殺之。 In the crown prince's name they took Jingzhen in and killed him.
