澄弟鮮，得罪宋世，當死。 Cheng's younger brother Xian offended during the Song and was sentenced to death.

澄於路見舍人王道隆，叩頭流血，以此見原。 Cheng met Attendant Within the Yellow Gates Wang Daolong on the road and kowtowed until it bled; on this account Xian was pardoned.

揚州主簿顧測以兩奴就鮮質錢，鮮死，子暉誣爲賣券，澄爲中丞，測與書相往反，後又牋與太守蕭緬云：「澄欲遂子弟之非，未近義方之訓，此趨販所不爲，況搢紳領袖，儒宗勝達乎？」 Gu Ce, Chief Clerk of Yangzhou, pledged two slaves with Xian for a loan. When Xian died, his son Hui falsely claimed they had been sold outright. Cheng, as Imperial Censor, exchanged letters with Ce, who later also wrote to Grand Administrator Xiao Mian: "Cheng wishes to indulge his kinsmen's wrongdoing and shows no regard for righteous teaching—this is what peddlers would not do, how much less a leader of the gentry and an eminent Confucian scholar?"
