仁宗方幸熱河，命留京王大臣同鞫，得舞弊狀，有圻論如律，在事降革有差，人咸側目。 The Jiaqing Emperor was at Rehe and ordered princes and ministers in the capital to try the case jointly. Fraud was proved; Youqi was sentenced by law; those involved were demoted or dismissed in varying degrees, and all looked on in awe.

仁宗獎承藻曰：「真御史也！」 The Jiaqing Emperor praised Chengzao: "A true censor!"

論曰：仁宗詔求直言，下至末吏平民，皆得封章上達，言路大開。 The appraisal says: The Jiaqing Emperor called for blunt speech; from the lowest clerks to common people, all could submit sealed memorials to the throne, and the path of remonstrance stood wide open.
