朱瑄
In winter 884, Zhu Xuan made an unsuccessful bid to take over Yicheng Circuit (義成, headquartered in modern Anyang, Henan). At that time, An Shiru () the military governor of Yicheng had alienated his soldiers by overly entrusting authorities to his officers Xiahou Yan () and Du Biao (). In response, the officer Zhang Xiao () raised a group of 2,000 soldiers, rebelled against An, and attacked Yicheng's capital Hua Prefecture (), forcing An to placate the soldiers by executing Xiahou and Du. Zhu Xuan, wanting to work on seizing Yicheng, sent his cousin Zhu Yu () to induce Zhang into a military confrontation and kill him. Meanwhile, however, Zhu Quanzhong preempted Zhu Xuan by sending his officers Zhu Zhen () and Li Tangbin () to launch a surprise attack on Yicheng. Zhu Zhen and Li were able to surprise An and capture him. Zhu Quanzhong took over Yicheng and made his officer Hu Zhen () acting military governor.
