容令岳常澧道倉德代濟世，布政使張璨附容指，貽書倉德，令更易長沙府詳牒。 Rong ordered Yue-Chang-Li Circuit Intendant Cang De to replace Jishi. Provincial administration commissioner Zhang Can followed Rong's lead and sent a letter to Cang De ordering him to alter the Changsha prefecture's detailed report.

倉德初官給事中，嘗劾濟世奏事失儀，至是不直璨所為，發其書上嘉淦及漕運總督顧琮，嘉淦庇容，寢其事。 Cang De had earlier served as supervising secretary and once impeached Jishi for impropriety in memorializing. Now he did not approve of Can's conduct and sent the letter up to Jiagan and Grain Transport Governor-General Gu Cong. Jiagan shielded Rong and shelved the matter.

諭倉德委曲善處，琮諮都察院奏聞。 He instructed Cang De to handle the matter tactfully; Gu consulted the Censorate, which memorialized to inform the throne.

上命侍郎阿里袞如湖南會嘉淦按治，而倉德以嘉淦寢其事，复揭都察院奏聞。 The emperor ordered Vice Minister Aligun to go to Hunan and jointly investigate with Jiagan. Cang De, because Jiagan had shelved the matter, again submitted it through the Censorate to inform the throne.

阿里袞尋奏濟世被誣劾，請復官，容、璨及按察使王玠皆坐奪官，上命並罷嘉淦，而獎倉德及定，調濟世驛鹽道。 Aligun soon memorialized that Jishi had been falsely impeached and requested his restoration to office; Rong, Can, and surveillance commissioner Wang Jie were all stripped of office for their roles. The emperor ordered Jiagan dismissed as well, commended Cang De and Ding, and transferred Jishi to the courier and salt circuit.
