山西巡撫成格追劾官俊在學政任毆差買妾，妄作威福，大開奔競。 Shanxi Governor Cheng Ge then accused him of beating runners, buying a concubine, and encouraging corruption while education commissioner.

惟所述太監往河東查訪鹽務控案，事出無稽，解職就質，命長齡道出山西，傳旨面詰成格，亦以不能指實引咎，遂兩斥之。 but the story of eunuchs investigating salt at Hedong was fiction. Guanjun was dismissed to stand trial; Changling was sent to confront Cheng Ge, who could not prove his charges, and both men were removed.
