天寶二年春，御史中丞張倚男奭參選，晉卿與遙以倚初承恩，欲悅附之，考選人判等凡六十四人，分甲乙丙科，奭在其首。 In the spring of Tianbao 2 (743), Zhang Yi's son Shi entered the examinations. Jinqing and Yao, eager to curry favor with the newly favored Zhang Yi, ranked sixty-four candidates in three tiers and placed Shi at the top.

上怒，晉卿貶為安康郡太守，遙為武當郡太守，張倚為淮陽太守。 The emperor's rage sent Jinqing to Ankang as prefect, Yao to Wudang, and Zhang Yi to Huaiyang.
