弘羊自以為國興大利，伐其功，欲為子弟得官，怨望大將軍霍光，遂與上官桀等謀反，誅滅。 Hongyang believed that he had brought great profit to the state and boasted of his achievements. He sought offices for his sons and younger kin, resented General-in-Chief Huo Guang, and then plotted rebellion with Shangguan Jie and others; he and his clan were exterminated.
