五月，御史張煊劾大學士陳名夏等，下王大臣會鞫。 In the fifth month Censor Zhang Xuan impeached Chen Mingxia and other grand secretaries; princes and ministers were convened to try the case.

譚泰袒名夏，讞上，命未下，譚泰前奏，言煊劾皆虛，且所舉諸事皆在赦前，煊以外轉嫌，誣名夏等死罪，當反坐，煊遂見法。 Tan Tai protected Mingxia; before the sentence was issued he argued that Zhang's charges were false and predated the amnesty—that Zhang, posted elsewhere, bore a grudge and had framed Mingxia for death, and should suffer the penalty himself; Zhang was executed.

上自譚泰袒陳名夏構張煊，心厭惡之。 Since Tan Tai had shielded Chen Mingxia and destroyed Zhang Xuan, the emperor had come to loathe him.
