上命解任，交總督孫嘉淦會鞫，濟世捕衡陽丁役下長沙知府張琳，讞得徵收浮費有據。 The emperor ordered him relieved of duty and referred the case to Governor-General Sun Jiagan for joint trial. Jishi arrested Hengyang clerks and runners and submitted them to Changsha Prefect Zhang Lin; sentencing established that extra fees had been collected, with evidence on record.

倉德初官給事中，嘗劾濟世奏事失儀，至是不直璨所為，發其書上嘉淦及漕運總督顧琮，嘉淦庇容，寢其事。 Cang De had earlier served as supervising secretary and once impeached Jishi for impropriety in memorializing. Now he did not approve of Can's conduct and sent the letter up to Jiagan and Grain Transport Governor-General Gu Cong. Jiagan shielded Rong and shelved the matter.

上命侍郎阿里袞如湖南會嘉淦按治，而倉德以嘉淦寢其事，复揭都察院奏聞。 The emperor ordered Vice Minister Aligun to go to Hunan and jointly investigate with Jiagan. Cang De, because Jiagan had shelved the matter, again submitted it through the Censorate to inform the throne.

上責嘉淦草率扶同，召還京師，解容、璨任，奪琳、德貽、澎官。 The emperor rebuked Jiagan for carelessness and collusion, recalled him to the capital, relieved Rong and Can of duty, and stripped Lin, Deyi, and Peng of office.

阿里袞尋奏濟世被誣劾，請復官，容、璨及按察使王玠皆坐奪官，上命並罷嘉淦，而獎倉德及定，調濟世驛鹽道。 Aligun soon memorialized that Jishi had been falsely impeached and requested his restoration to office; Rong, Can, and surveillance commissioner Wang Jie were all stripped of office for their roles.

乾隆九年，湖廣總督孫嘉淦因徇巡撫許容奪職，命修順義城。 In the ninth year of the Qianlong reign, Sun Jiagao, governor-general of Huguang, was dismissed for favoring the provincial governor Xu Rong and was ordered to repair the walls of Shunyi.

孫嘉淦操守不苟，久在聖明洞鑑之中，而罰令出貲效力，恐天下督撫聞之，謂以嘉淦之操守，尚不免於議罰，或一不得當，而罰即相隨，勢必隳廉隅預為受罰之地。 Sun Jiagao's integrity is beyond reproach and has long been known to the throne; yet to fine him and require him to pay for labor—governors-general and governors everywhere may conclude that even Jiagao's record cannot escape censure, that any slip will bring a fine, and they will abandon integrity and budget for fines in advance.

臣為嘉淦所取士，不敢避師生之嫌而隱默不言。」 I was Jiagao's chosen student and dare not stay silent for fear of the teacher-pupil tie."
