明帝即位,尊后為皇太后,稱永安宮。太和四年,詔封表安陽亭侯,又進爵鄉侯,增邑並前五百戶,遷中壘將軍。以表子詳為騎都尉。其年,帝追諡太后父永為安陽鄉敬侯,母董為都鄉君。遷表昭德將軍,加金紫,位特進,表第二子訓為騎都尉。及孟武母卒,欲厚葬,起祠堂,太后止之曰:「自喪亂以來,墳墓無不發掘,皆由厚葬也;首陽陵可以為法。」青龍三年春,后崩於許昌,以終制營陵,三月庚寅,葬首陽陵西。 〈《魏略》曰:明帝既嗣立,追痛甄后之薨,故太后以憂暴崩。甄后臨沒,以帝屬李夫人。及太后崩,夫人乃說甄后見譖之禍,不獲大斂,被髮覆面,帝哀恨流涕,命殯葬太后,皆如甄后故事。漢晉春秋曰:初,甄后之誅,由郭后之寵,及殯,令被髮覆面,以糠塞口,遂立郭后,使養明帝。帝知之,心常懷忿,數泣問甄后死狀。郭后曰:「先帝自殺,何以責問我?且汝為人子,可追讎死父,為前母枉殺後母邪?」明帝怒,遂逼殺之,敕殯者使如甄后故事。《魏書》載哀策曰:「維青龍三年三月壬申,皇太后梓宮啟殯,將葬於首陽之西陵。哀子皇帝叡親奉冊祖載,遂親遣奠,叩心擗踴,號咷仰訴,痛靈魂之遷幸,悲容車之向路,背三光以潛翳,就黃壚而安厝。嗚呼哀哉!昔二女妃虞,帝道以彰,三母嬪週,聖善彌光,既多受祉,享國延長。哀哀慈妣,興化閏房,龍飛紫極,作合聖皇,不虞中年,暴罹災殃。愍予小子,煢煢摧傷,魂雖永逝,定省曷望?嗚呼哀哉!」〉帝進表爵為觀津侯,增邑五百,並前千戶。遷詳為駙馬都尉。四年,追改封永為觀津敬侯,世婦董為堂陽君。追封諡后兄浮為梁裡亭戴侯,都為武城亭孝侯,成為新樂亭定侯,皆使使者奉策,祠以太牢。表薨,子詳嗣,又分錶爵封詳弟述為列侯。詳薨,子釗嗣。
