54.28

In the first year of the Jianning era of Emperor Ling, the eunuchs murdered Grand Tutor Chen Fan and General-in-Chief Dou Wu, and arrested and executed all their kinsmen and retainers. Li Ying went to prison, where the partisans were interrogated and tortured to death, with over one hundred dead. Throughout the realm, six to seven hundred men of Confucian learning and conduct were either executed, exiled, demoted, or barred from office.
