疏入，文宗疑其規避，嚴旨切責，允其回籍，俟假滿以三四品京堂降補。 When the memorial arrived, Emperor Wenzong suspected he was evading duty and issued a stern rebuke. He was allowed to return home and, after leave ended, to await appointment as a third- or fourth-rank metropolitan official at reduced rank.

論曰：呂賢基以忠鯁受主知，其治兵安徽也，志欲大有所為，當殘破之馀，驟無藉手，倉猝殞身，文宗惜之。 The commentator writes: Lü Xianji won the emperor's trust through loyal forthrightness. When he took command in Anhui he aspired to achieve great things, but amid the ruins of devastation he suddenly had nothing to work with and died in haste. Emperor Wenzong mourned him.
