Draft History of Qing, Chapter 352Volume 352 Biographies 139: Jiang Cheng, Jin Guangti, Zu Zhiwang, Han Feng · 11 passages
十四年,崶查閱澳門夷民安堵,因疏陳:「西洋人於其地舊設砲台六,請自伽思蘭砲台迤南,加築女牆二百餘丈,於前山寨駐專營,蓮花莖增關徬石垣,新湧山口築砲台,填蕉門海口,以資控制。」 In 1809, finding Macao's foreign residents at peace, he memorialized: "The Westerners maintain six batteries there. From Jiasilan southward, add two hundred-odd zhang of parapet, post a dedicated garrison at Qianshan, strengthen the Lianhuajing passes with stone walls, build a battery at Xinyong Hill Pass, and fill the Jiaomen estuary to tighten control."
詔斥含混取巧,命大學士托津等查訊,侍郎恩銘、常英、司員恩德等皆有賄囑情事,崶亦解任就質,坐失察司員得賄,嗣子知情,親屬撞騙,議奪職遣戍,因年老,從寬,命效力萬年吉地工程處。 The throne denounced this as evasive trickery and ordered Grand Secretary Tuojin to investigate. Vice Ministers Enming and Chang Ying and Secretary En De were all implicated in bribery. Feng was removed to give testimony, punished for failing to detect a secretary's bribes, his son's knowledge of them, and relatives' fraud, and recommended for dismissal and exile. Because of his age he was spared and sent to serve at the imperial mausoleum construction office.
