五十一年，江蘇布政使宜思恭以虧帑坐譴，因列訴總督噶禮等頻向需索，阿山亦受節餽，下部議，上以阿山老，寬之。 In Kangxi 51 Jiangsu Treasurer Yi Sigong was punished for a treasury shortfall and accused Governor-General Ga Li and others of repeated extortion; A Shan had also accepted gifts. The ministries deliberated, but the emperor spared him because of his age.

噶禮至江南，益恣肆，累疏劾江蘇巡撫於準、布政使宜思恭、按察使焦映漢，皆坐罷。 In Jiangnan Ga Li grew more unrestrained still, impeaching Jiangsu Governor Yu Zhun, Treasurer Yi Sigong, and Judge Jiao Yinghan until all were dismissed.

及宜思恭罷，署布政使。 and when Yi Sigong was dismissed, he acted as provincial treasurer.

噶禮續劾宜思恭虧帑，又論糧道賈樸建關開河皆有所侵蝕，遂及鵬年覈報不實，鵬年復坐罷。 Ga Li continued impeaching Yi Sigong for treasury shortfalls, charged Grain Intendant Jia Pu with embezzling on canal works, and extended the charge to Pengnian for false verification; Pengnian was dismissed again.
