言官遂劾壽圖湎酒廢事,舉劾不公,並訐蓉漏洩之罪,於是命瑞常偕尚書羅惇衍往按之,疏白其無罪,惟坐壽圖演戲及蓉陳奏失當,並予薄譴。 Censors then charged Shoutu with drunken neglect and unfair personnel decisions, and accused Liu Rong of leaking secrets. Rui Chang and Minister Luo Dunyan were sent to investigate and cleared them of serious guilt, finding only that Shoutu had attended plays and Liu's memorial was improper; both received mild censure.
