右通政張雲翮，故靖逆侯勇子。 Right Vice Commissioner of Transmission Zhang Yunyi was the son of Yong, the late Marquis of Pacifying Rebellion.

勇妻李卒，雲翮不居喪。 When Marquis Yong's wife Lady Li died, Yunyi failed to observe mourning.

翔麟疏劾：「雲翮縱非李出，嫡母、繼母並製三年，豈可視為陌路？ Xianglin impeached him: "Even if Yunyi was not Lady Li's biological son, both birth mother and stepmother require three years of mourning—how can he treat them as strangers?

賜履雅負清望，良棟功臣，雲翮功臣子，翔麟論列無所避，以是得直聲。 Though Cilu enjoyed a long-standing reputation for integrity, Liangdong was a meritorious general, and Yunyi the son of one, Xianglin criticized them all without hesitation and thereby earned a reputation for upright candor.
