而振党馬順者，輒叱言官。 Wang Zhen's follower Ma Shun shouted down the remonstrating officials.

於是給事中王竑廷擊順，眾隨之。 Supervising secretary Wang Hong then struck Shun in open court, and the crowd followed.

王懼欲起，謙排眾直前掖王止，且啟王宣諭曰：「順等罪當死，勿論。」 The prince, frightened, tried to rise; Qian pushed through the throng, seized the prince's arm, and urged him to announce: "Shun and his like deserve death—let it pass."
