After the King of Xiangdong ascended the imperial throne, Yuan Yi submitted a memorial urging Zixun, King of Jin'an, to assume the imperial throne, planting military banners at Sangwei and circulating a call to arms to Jiankang. Thereupon Liu Wan led officers and subordinates to present an imperial title, and Zixun, King of Jin'an, ascended the imperial throne at Xunyang (Jiangzhou). He changed the reign era to Yijia. Tributes and plans from the four directions all submitted to Xunyang; all the court retained were merely a few commanderies such as Danyang and Huainan. The imperial court appointed Xiuren, King of Jian'an, as Commander-in-Chief of All Expeditionary Military Affairs, and Shen Youzhi as Grand Protector of Xunyang, leading troops to campaign against Zixun. Soon after, Liu Wan served as Senior Clerk of the Forward Army of Jingzhou; Zhang Yue deceitfully killed him. The various armies reached Xunyang, beheaded Zixun, King of Jin'an, and delivered his head to Jiankang. Zixun was eleven years old.
