Guo Jin did not kill him, but said to him: "If you can help me capture every city and village of Liu Jiyuan in Hedong, Not only will I pardon your death penalty, but I will also reward you with an official position." At the end of the year, this man came over and lured one of Liu Jiyuan's cities to surrender. Guo Jin reported his matter to the court and asked for him to be given an official position. Taizu said: "He once falsely accused my loyal and good ministers. He can be exempted from the death penalty, but it is impossible to give him an official position." The order was still to hand over this man to Guo Jin. Guo Jin said again: "If The emperor asked me to break my trust, so how can I use people in the future?"
