In the eighth month, on yisi, the gold and silver vessels of the Left Storehouse were melted down. On jisi, killing people as sacrifices to spirits was forbidden in Chuanxia, Lingnan and Hunan; the prefectures and counties were to search out and arrest offenders, and informers were rewarded. On gengwu, the lord of the Southwestern Fan sent his son Long Hanxing with tribute. In this month the eight counties of Chang'an in Jingzhao suffered drought, and six-tenths of this year's tax was granted to them. The tax on the fishponds at Susong and two other places in Shu Prefecture was cancelled.
