尋言官劾天爵酷刑，與廣義言略同，命侍郎麟魁、吳其濬往按，得天爵信任候補知縣楚鏞用非刑，外委黃雲邦誣執良民諸狀，上震怒，褫天爵職，戍伊犁。 Soon censorial officials impeached Tianjue for cruel punishments, largely echoing Guangyi's charges; Ministers Lin Kui and Wu Qijun were sent to investigate and found that Tianjue had trusted the expectant magistrate Chu Yong, who employed illegal torture, and the external appointee Huang Yunbang, who had falsely arrested innocent civilians; the Emperor was enraged, stripped Tianjue of office, and banished him to Yili.
