文鏡劾屬吏黃振國、邵言綸、汪諴等，李紱訟言其枉，並謂河南諸吏張球最劣，文鏡縱弗糾。 Wenjing had impeached subordinates Huang Zhenguo, Shao Yanlun, Wang Yan, and others. Li Fu argued they had been wronged and also said that among Henan officials Zhang Qiu was the worst, yet Wenjing indulged him and did not impeach him.

上先入文鏡言，不直紱，而濟世罪狀文鏡又及枉振國、言綸、諴庇球諸事。 The emperor had first accepted Wenjing's account and did not side with Fu, yet Jishi's charges against Wenjing again cited the wrongful cases of Zhenguo, Yanlun, and Yan and Wenjing's shielding of Qiu.
