童贯握兵二十余年，覆军杀将，驯至今日，比闻防城仍用阉人，覆车之辙，不可复蹈。 疏上，除右谏议大夫兼侍讲。
Tong Guan has held military power for more than 20 years, and after his defeat and death, he is still in power today. However, I have recently heard that eunuchs are still being used to defend the city. The previous lesson learned cannot be repeated. After the memorial was submitted, he was appointed as the Right Yizhong大夫and concurrently as the Shijiang.
