The imperial envoys pressed Liang's senior officials relentlessly. The Chancellor of Liang, Xuanqiu Bao, and the Chamberlain Han Anguo went before the king to remonstrate. At last the king ordered Yang Sheng and Gongsun Gui to take their own lives, and their bodies were handed over.
梁王恐，乃使韓安國因長公主謝罪太后，然后得釋。
The King of Liang, now fearful, sent Han Anguo to intercede through the Grand Princess and beg the Empress Dowager's forgiveness. Only then was the matter set aside.
故諸侯王當為置良師傅，相忠言之士，如汲黯、韓長孺等，敢直言極諫，安得有患害！
This is why feudal kings should be given worthy tutors and chancellors, men of loyal counsel such as Ji An and Han Changru, who dare to speak frankly and remonstrate without reserve. If this were done, how could any calamity arise!
