楊雍建姚締虞硃弘祚子綱王騭宋犖陳詵 Yang Yongjian, Yao Diyu, Zhu Hongzuo, Wang Zhi, Song Luo, and Chen Shen

硃弘祚，字徽廕，山東高唐人，昌祚弟。 Zhu Hongzuo, whose courtesy name was Huiyin, came from Gaotang in Shandong and was the younger brother of Changzuo.

弘祚自舉人授江南盱眙知縣，有惠政，舉卓異。 Starting as a provincial graduate, he became magistrate of Xuyi in Jiangnan, governed well, and was marked outstanding.

弘祚疏陳整飭鹽政數事，如議行。 Hongzuo proposed several reforms of the salt administration, and they were adopted.

弘祚言：「民糧重，則每畝八升八合起科，今屯田浮三之二，非卹兵之道，當比例裁減。」 Hongzuo wrote: 'Civilian land is taxed at eight sheng eight he per mu at most; colony land is two-thirds higher, which is no way to support the troops and should be cut proportionally.'

值大計，弘祚疏言「福建地瘠民佻」，上責弘祚失言，謂：「賢才不擇地而生。 At the grand evaluation Hongzuo wrote that 'Fujian has poor soil and frivolous people'; the emperor rebuked him, saying, 'Talent is not born only in favored places.

今弘祚又以謬言陳奏，下部議降調。」 Now Hongzuo had done the same, and the ministries were ordered to consider demoting him.'

雍建於貴州，締虞於四川，弘祚於廣東，騭於江西，犖承騭，詵遙繼雍建，兵後撫綏甚勤。 Yongjian in Guizhou, Diyu in Sichuan, Hongzuo in Guangdong, Zhi in Jiangxi, Luo following Zhi, and Shen distantly continuing Yongjian—all labored hard to restore order after the war.
