Fen, Prince of Yan: his mother was a granddaughter of Fan, Right Assistant Director of the Department of State Affairs. The emperor esteemed her for her distinguished family, and Fen too was kind and learned. After his enfeoffment he held in absentia the post of Grand Protector-General of Anxi. When the emperor went into Shu, Fen, who had thirty-six sons in all, could not bear to abandon them and so travelled slowly. Several days later he presented himself at the emperor's travelling lodge, and the emperor was angry; only when Yu, Prince of Hanzhong, pleaded on his behalf was he let off, and he was allowed to go back to Lingwu. He died in the first year of Xingyuan. Of his sons, Zhuo was made Prince of Pengcheng Commandery, Ting Prince of Pingyang, Jing Duke of Lu, Yan Duke of Jing, and You was Chief Minister of the Court of the Imperial Stud. Edit
