時吳縣令甄輔廷治諸生糾控罪過當，學政平恕曲徇所請，斥革生員二十五人。 The magistrate of Wu county, Zhen Futing, had punished student complaints too harshly; Education Commissioner Pingshu indulged his requests and expelled twenty-five licentiates.

上聞之，解平恕任，以樾代，至則先复諸生名，僅坐首事者三人，士民稱慶。 When the emperor learned of this he removed Pingshu and sent Yue in his place; on arrival Yue first restored the students' standing and punished only three ringleaders, to the joy of scholars and townspeople alike.
