初，濰縣知縣硃敦厚以贓私為巡撫錢鎯所發，乞徐乾學請於鎯，獲免，且內擢主事。 Earlier, Wei County magistrate Zhu Dunhou had been exposed for corruption by Governor Qian Li; through Xu Qianxue's intercession he escaped punishment and was even promoted to director in Beijing.

未幾，御史張星法劾山東巡撫錢鎯貪黷，鎯奏辨，因及琇嘗致書囑薦即墨知縣高上達等，卻之，遂挾嫌使星法誣劾，下法司訊。 Soon Censor Zhang Xingfa impeached Shandong Governor Qian Heng for corruption. Heng replied that Xiu had once asked him to recommend Jimo Magistrate Gao Shangda and that he had refused—so Xiu had Zhang bring false charges. The case went to the judiciary.

三十年，山東巡撫佛倫劾濰縣知縣硃敦厚加收火耗論死，並及乾學嘗致書前任巡撫錢鎯庇敦厚。 In year 30 Shandong Governor Folun charged Weixian magistrate Zhu Dunhou with illegal surcharges and sought his execution, also citing Qianxue's letter to former governor Qian Hao shielding Zhu.

乾學與鎯倶坐是奪職。 Qianxue and Qian Hao were both stripped of their posts for this.
