Cui Shi
In 709, two corrupt chancellors with connections to Li Guo'er, Cui Shi and Zheng Yin, were indicted by the assistant censors Jin Heng (), Li Shangyin, and Pei Cui (), and initially, Zheng was reduced to commoner rank and exiled, while Cui Shi was reduced in rank to be the military advisor to a prefectural prefect, but at the urging of Consort Shangguan, Li Guo'er, and Wu Yanxiu, their punishments were subsequently reduced.
