鮑桂星顧吳孝銘陳鴻鄂木順額徐法績 Bao Guixing, Gu Chun, Wu Xiaoming, Chen Hong, E Mushune, and Xu Faji

鄂木順額，字复亭，鈕祜祿氏，滿洲正藍旗人。 E Mushune, whose courtesy name was Futing, belonged to the Niohuru clan and came from the Manchu Plain Blue Banner.

鄂木順額，嘉慶二十五年進士，選庶吉士，授編修，累遷右庶子。 E Mushune earned his jinshi degree in the twenty-fifth year of Jiaqing, entered the Hanlin Academy as a bachelor, became a compiler, and rose in succession to right vice-director of the Supervisorate of Education.

扈從東巡，命分視御道，內監前驅者多率意馳踐，鄂木順額執而鞭之，則愬於御前。 On the eastern tour he was assigned to inspect sections of the imperial road. Many eunuch outriders rode recklessly and trampled it. E Mushune seized and whipped them, and they appealed to the emperor.

召問，鄂木順額對曰：「關外地與關內異，先驅蹂踐則路壞，慮驚乘輿。 Called in and questioned, E Mushune answered: "The terrain beyond the passes is not like that within them. If outriders trample the road it will be ruined, and I feared alarming the imperial carriage.

十一年，大雨江溢，學政駐當塗，鄂木順額捐廉以賑，督守令勸捐，士民踴躍。 In the eleventh year heavy rains flooded the river. The educational commissioner was stationed at Dangtu. E Mushune donated his official salary for relief, urged prefects and magistrates to solicit contributions, and gentry and commoners responded enthusiastically.

鄂木順額堅留治賑，事得辦，後上聞。 E Mushune insisted on keeping him for relief work. The effort succeeded, and the matter was later reported to the throne.

鄂木順額以氣節自勵，在滿洲京僚中稱最。 E Mushune disciplined himself by moral integrity and was regarded as foremost among Manchu officials in the capital.

吳孝銘通達政體，鄂木順額樸誠持正，陳鴻、徐法績清操相繼，冀挽頹風，而庫藏大獄，卒發於十數年之間，甚矣實心除弊之罕覯其人也！ Wu Xiaoming mastered the workings of government; E Mushune was plainspoken, sincere, and upright; Chen Hong and Xu Faji upheld integrity in succession, hoping to reverse a declining age. Yet the great vault scandals finally erupted within a dozen years. How seldom does one meet a man who earnestly sets out to root out abuses!
