時曾覿以使弼領京祠，王抃以知閤門兼樞密都承旨，為入內押班，相與盤結，士大夫無恥者爭附之。 Zeng Di held a capital temple stipend as envoy deputy; Wang Bian was Gate Commissioner and Bureau Chief, also Inner Entering Escort Leader; they formed a clique that shameless officials rushed to join.

既而覿死抃逐，獨在，朱熹力言之，帝曰：“乃德壽宮所薦，謂有才耳。” Di died and Bian was expelled; Gan alone remained; Zhu Xi protested fiercely; the emperor said, “Deshou Palace recommended him—they said he had talent.”
