及昭宗誅韓全誨等，左拾遺羅袞上言：「蕡當太和時，宦官始熾，因直言策請奪爵土，復掃除之役，遂罹譴逐，身死異土，六十餘年，正人義夫切齒飲泣。 When Emperor Zhaozong executed Han Quanhui and others, Left Reminder Luo Gun submitted words: "In the Taihe era, when eunuchs were just growing fierce, Fen in his straightforward examination answers asked to strip them of noble ranks and fiefs and restore the task of sweeping them away — thereby he suffered reprimand and exile and died in a foreign land; for more than sixty years upright men and men of righteousness gnashed their teeth and wept.
