初，大將軍鳳連昏楊肜為琅邪太守，其郡有災害十四，已上。 Wang Feng had earlier formed a marriage alliance with Yang Rong, governor of Langye, a commandery that had suffered more than a dozen calamities.

肜素善吏，宜以為後。」 Yang Rong has always been capable in office; you ought to deal with this leniently.'

商不聽，竟奏免肜，奏果寢不下，鳳重以是怨商，陰求其短，使人上書言商閨門內事。 Wang Shang ignored the hint, memorialized for Yang Rong's removal, and saw the document shelved. Wang Feng's resentment deepened; he began hunting for dirt and had someone memorialize about scandal inside Wang Shang's household.
