左丞鄒孝裕、郎中陸仁惠、盧元亮厚相結托。 Left assistant Zou Xiaoyu and gentlemen Lu Renhui and Lu Yuanliang attached themselves to him.

長仁每上省，孝裕必方駕而來。 Whenever Changren entered the provincial offices, Xiaoyu arrived in a matching carriage.

孝裕屏人私話，朝退亦相隨，仁惠、元亮又伺間而往，停斷公事，時人號為三佞。 Xiaoyu drew him aside for private talk and followed him from court; Renhui and Yuanliang slipped in between sessions and stalled the bureaucracy—contemporaries dubbed them the Three Flatterers.

孝裕勸其求進，和士開深疾之，於是奏除孝裕為章武郡守，元亮等皆出。 Xiaoyu urged him to climb higher; He Shikai, loathing this, had Xiaoyu sent to Zhangwu and the others posted away.

孝裕又說長仁曰：「王陽臥疾，士開必來，因而殺之。 Xiaoyu told Changren, “Feign illness—when Shikai comes, kill him.

士開知謀，徙孝裕為北營州建德郡守。 Shikai uncovered the plot and sent Xiaoyu to Jiande in North Ying Province.
