王掞子奕清奕鴻勞之辨硃天保陶彝任坪范長發鄒圖雲
Wang Shan; his sons Yiqing and Yihong; Lao Zhibian; Zhu Tianbao; Tao Yi; Ren Ping; Fan Changfa; and Zou Tuyun
既而御史陶彝等十二人連名入奏，上疑出掞意，大怒，召諸王大臣，降旨責掞植黨希榮，且謂：「錫爵在明神宗時，力奏建儲，泰昌在位，未及數月，天啟庸懦，天下大亂，至愍帝而不能守。
Then Censors Tao Yi and eleven others submitted a joint memorial. Suspecting Shan had orchestrated it, the emperor flew into a rage, summoned the princes and senior ministers, and rebuked Shan for faction-building and ambition. He said: "Under the Ming Shenzong, Xijue pressed hard for an heir. Taichang reigned only months. Tianqi was weak, the realm collapsed, and even Chongzhen could not hold the state.
陶彝，順天大興人。
Tao Yi came from Daxing in Shuntian.
六十年三月，彝與同官任坪、范長發、鄒圖雲、陳嘉猷、王允晉、李允符、範允、高玢、高怡、趙成麃、孫紹曾合疏奏曰：「皇上深恩厚德，浹洽人心。
In the third month of 1721 Yi and his colleagues Ren Ping, Fan Changfa, Zou Tuyun, Chen Jiayou, Wang Yunjin, Li Yunfu, Fan Yun, Gao Bin, Gao Yi, Zhao Chengbiao, and Sun Shaozeng jointly memorialized: "Your Majesty's deep grace and great virtue fill the hearts of the people.
後數日，彝等疏又上，上震怒，斥掞植黨希榮。
Several days later Yi's memorial was submitted again. The emperor was enraged and rebuked Shan for faction-building and ambition.
越日，諭廷臣曰：「王掞及御史陶彝等妄行陳奏，俱稱為國為君。
The next day he told the court: "Wang Shan and Censor Tao Yi and others rashly memorialized, all claiming to act for the state and the sovereign.
至是，嘉猷復與彝等申請，獲咎。
On this occasion Jiayou again joined Yi and others in petitioning and was punished.
彝等但坐謫戍，已為寬典，拳拳效忠，固人臣之義也。
Yi and the others received only banishment to frontier service, already a lenient measure. Earnest loyalty is indeed a subject's duty.
