周奏彥澤所為不法者二十六條，並述涇人殘敝之狀，式父鐸詣闕訴冤，諫議大夫鄭受益、曹國珍，尚書刑部郎中李濤、張麟，員外郎麻麟、王禧伏閣上疏，論彥澤殺式之冤，皆不省。 Zhou memorialized twenty-six illegal acts by Yanze and described how the people of Jing had been ruined. Shi's father Duo came to court to plead his grievance. Remonstrance officials Zheng Shouyi and Cao Guozhen, Directors of the Ministry of Justice Li Tao and Zhang Lin, and Assistant Directors Ma Lin and Wang Xi submitted memorials at the palace gate denouncing the injustice of Yanze's killing of Shi. None received attention.
