倉德初官給事中，嘗劾濟世奏事失儀，至是不直璨所為，發其書上嘉淦及漕運總督顧琮，嘉淦庇容，寢其事。 Cang De had earlier served as supervising secretary and once impeached Jishi for impropriety in memorializing. Now he did not approve of Can's conduct and sent the letter up to Jiagan and Grain Transport Governor-General Gu Cong. Jiagan shielded Rong and shelved the matter.

諭倉德委曲善處，琮諮都察院奏聞。 He instructed Cang De to handle the matter tactfully; Gu consulted the Censorate, which memorialized to inform the throne.
