堅亦自以得天子意，銳於進，又與左相李適之善，故林甫授堅刑部尚書，奪諸使，以楊慎矜代之。
Jian, confident that he had the emperor's favor, pressed hard for advancement and was allied with Left Chancellor Li Shizhi. Linfu therefore made Jian Minister of Justice, removed all his transport commissions, and put Yang Shenjin in his place.
有詔訊鞫，林甫使楊慎矜、楊國忠、王鉷、吉溫等文致其獄，帝惑之，貶堅縉雲太守，惟明播川太守，籍其家。
The emperor ordered an investigation. Li Linfu set Yang Shenjin, Yang Guozhong, Wang Hong, Ji Wen, and others to fabricate the case. Misled, the emperor demoted Wei Jian to prefect of Jinyun and Huangfu Weiming to prefect of Bochuan, and had their families' property seized.
