十二年，南河奸民陳堂等盜決於家灣官堤，命偕尚書硃士彥往勘。 In Daoguang 12 (1832), when ruffians led by Chen Tang cut the official dike at Yujiawan on the Southern Rivers, he was sent with Zhu Shiyan to inspect the damage.

陳堂等聽從逸犯陳端糾眾，以為從例問擬，疏防各官遣戍。 Chen Tang's gang had followed the fugitive Chen Duan; as accomplices they received reduced sentences, while negligent officials were banished.
