桓祕不奔山陵，左丞鄭襲不彈祕，直彈中丞孔欣時，又云別攝蘭臺檢校，此徑彈中丞之謂。 Huan Mi did not hurry to the imperial tombs; Left Assistant Zheng Xi did not impeach Mi but impeached Imperial Censor Kong Xinshi directly, also stating that he separately took charge of Orchid Terrace inspection—this is what is meant by impeaching the Imperial Censor directly.

夫山陵情敬之極，北伐專征之大，祕霸季之貴，道濟元勳之盛，所以咎及南司，事非常憲，然祕事猶非及中丞也。 Imperial tombs represent the utmost in filial reverence; the northern campaign was the greatest of special expeditions. Mi was noble as a regional hegemon; Daoji was eminent as a founding merit-holder. Therefore blame reached the Censorate—matters outside ordinary statutes—yet even Mi's case still did not reach the Imperial Censor.
