於是中書舍人陳傅良、監察御史吳獵、起居郎劉光祖各先後斥去，群憸和附，疾正士如仇讎，而衣冠之禍始矣。 Secretariat drafter Chen Fuliang, censor Wu Lie, and diarist Liu Guangzu were driven out in turn. Sycophants joined in flattery and hated upright men like mortal foes. The persecution of the scholar-official class had begun.

時韓侂胄方謀用兵，吳獵帥湖北，將赴鎮，訪以兵事。 At that time Han Tuozhou was plotting war; Wu Lie, commanding Hubei, was about to take up his post and asked Gan about military affairs.

獵雅敬榦名德，辟為荊湖北路安撫司激賞酒庫兼準備差遣，事有未當，必輸忠款力爭。 Lie, who deeply respected Gan's name and virtue, appointed him to the reward wine depot of the Jinghu North Circuit pacification commission with additional preparatory dispatch; whenever anything was amiss he offered loyal remonstrance and fought it through.
