玄辭服,有詔左將軍彭宣與中朝者雜問。
Zhao Xuan confessed. The throne ordered General of the Left Peng Xuan and inner-court officials to conduct a joint hearing.
宣等劾奏:「博宰相,玄上卿,晏以外親封位特進,股肱大臣,上所信任,不思竭誠奉公,務廣恩化,為百寮先,皆知喜、武前已蒙恩詔決,事更三赦,博執正道,虧損上恩,以結信貴戚,背君鄉臣,傾亂政治,奸人之雄,附下罔上,為臣不忠不道;
Peng Xuan and the others impeached them, saying: "Zhu Bo is chancellor, Zhao Xuan is an upper minister, and Yan, as an outside relative, holds enfeoffed rank as Specially Advanced. They are great ministers, arms and thighs of the state, trusted by the sovereign, yet they did not think to exhaust loyalty in serving the public, broaden grace and transformation, and lead the hundred offices. They all knew that Xi and Wu had already received a merciful edict and decision, and that the matter had passed through three amnesties. Bo abandoned the straight Way and damaged the sovereign's grace in order to bind trust with honored in-laws; he turned his back on the ruler and faced the ministers, overturned and disordered government, became a champion among wicked men, attached himself below and deceived above. As a minister he is disloyal and without the Way;
右將軍蟜望等四十四人以為:「如宣等言,可許。」
General of the Right Jiao Wang and forty-four others held: "As Xuan and the others say—it may be permitted."
