“The roads to Kung-t‘an on the frontier, and to P‘êng-shui Hien, two places about equidistant from Wu-ch‘uan, both pass⟳ Chên-nan Ch‘iao, a small market hamlet 60 li from the city.”
“One was to suppress Yang through the forthright use⟳ of military force⟳ and the other, apparently most favored by provincial officials and the gentry families in the general Kweichow-Szechwan border⟳ area, advocated the employment of political means. The latter eventually prevailed and no military moves against Yang were undertaken. Instead, he was persuaded to submit⟳ himself to judicial proceedings, and, after refusing to appear⟳ before any tribunal in Kweichow, he consented to go to P’eng-shui 彭水, Szechwan, in 1590.”
