肅順等既敗，少詹事許彭壽疏請治黨援，論形跡最著莫如孚恩，最密莫如侍郎劉昆、黃宗漢，平日所薦舉者，則有侍郎成琦、太僕寺少卿德克津太、候補京堂富績等，於是諸臣盡黜。 After Sushun's fall, Junior Mentor Xu Pengshou memorialized to punish their clique. He named Fuen the most conspicuous associate, Liu Kun and Huang Zonghan the closest confidants, and among Fuen's usual recommendations Cheng Qi, Deke Jintai, and Fuji; all were dismissed.

許彭壽復引據文宗御製詩有「以後無須變更」之句，請下廷臣再議，議不配祀。 Xu Pengshou cited Emperor Xianfeng's own verse, "no need to change hereafter," and asked the court to debate again; the outcome was to deny him paired worship.
