文慶曾延治病，文宗斥其身為步軍統領，不能立時捕究，有乖職守，褫職。
Wen Qing had once called Xue in to treat him. Emperor Xianfeng rebuked him: as chief of the metropolitan gendarmerie he should have seized Xue immediately; by failing to do so he had neglected his office, and was dismissed.
文慶醇謹持大體，宣宗、文宗知之深，屢躓屢起，眷倚不衰。
Wen Qing was upright, careful, and mindful of the larger good; both Daoguang and Xianfeng knew him intimately. Though he fell and was restored again and again, imperial trust in him never faded.
文宗深惜之，優詔賜卹，嘉其人品端粹，器量淵深，辦事精勤，通達治體，贈太保，賜金治喪。
Emperor Xianfeng mourned him deeply, issued a generous edict of condolence, praised his integrity, depth of mind, diligence, and grasp of statecraft, posthumously made him grand guardian, and granted funds for his funeral.
