Second, the celebrity story about honesty-Yan Shu

Yan Shu, a poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, is known for his honesty. When he was fourteen, he was recommended to the emperor as a child prodigy. The emperor summoned him and asked him to take the exam at the same time with more than 1 Jinshi. As a result, Yan Shu found that he had just practiced the exam ten days ago, so he reported it to Zhenzong truthfully and asked to change other topics. Song Zhenzong highly appreciated Yan Shu's honesty and gave him the title of "fellow Jinshi".

when Yan Shu took office, the world was at peace. As a result, officials of all sizes in Beijing often visit the suburbs or hold various banquets in restaurants and teahouses in the city. Yan Shu was poor and had no money to go out to eat, drink and be merry, so he had to read and write articles with his brothers at home. One day, Zhenzong promoted Yan Shu to be the East Palace official who assisted the Prince in his studies. Ministers were surprised and didn't understand why Zhenzong made such a decision.

Zhenzong said: "Recently, the ministers often play and dine, and only Yan Shu, who is so self-respecting and cautious, is the right person for the East Palace official." Yan Shu thanked him and said, "I am actually a person who likes to play and eat, but my family is poor. If I had money, I would have participated in the banquet tour. " These two things made Yan Shu establish credibility in front of his ministers, and Song Zhenzong trusted him more.
