先是，誼與承翰俱銜命於兩浙，睹其驕僭之失，形於譏誚，兼乘醉有輕肆之言，錢宏俶恥之，摭其過以奏之，朝廷以方務懷柔，故有是命。 Earlier Yi and Chenghan had both been sent on missions to the Two Zhes. Seeing their arrogance, they mocked them openly and, while drunk, spoke recklessly. Qian Hongchu, humiliated, reported their offenses to court; because the court was then pursuing conciliation, these demotions followed.
