52.22

Emperor Jianwen of the Jin. When crows nested in the Taiji Hall, he summoned the nun Daorong to administer the eightfold fasting precepts, and the crows carried their nests away. When an ominous star caused an anomaly, he summoned Śramaṇa Fakuang to perform a repentance ritual, and the star disappeared because of it. Under Emperor Xiaowu, Shegong of Western India came to Chang'an; he often recited incantations over dragons to bring rain, and the ruler of the Qin honoured and served him.
