Original: Zhao Pu
Generally speaking, there is less practice of official business and less learning, but for the sake of the phase, Mao often advised reading. In his later years, he kept his book. Every time he went back to his private parts, he closed the door and took it away, so he accidentally read it. And the next day, the execution was like running water. Not only did my family read it, but there were also twenty Analects.
Generally speaking, there are deep valleys. Although many people avoid grams, they can take the affairs of the world as their own responsibility. In the early Song Dynasty, the physiognomists were dirtier and more resolute than others. You don't have to try to recommend someone as an official. You needn't repeat it tomorrow. Tomorrow, Pu will play with others, be angry, solve the case and throw it on the ground. Pu color unchanged, kneel down and pick up. One day I will mend the old paper and play it again as before. Mao is open-minded. He uses his people.
Translation:
When Zhao Pu was young, he was familiar with the affairs of officials, but he didn't know much. When he became prime minister, Mao often advised him to study. Zhao Pu studied hard in his later years. Every time he goes back to his house, he closes the door, opens the bookcase, takes out his books and reads them all day. Wait until the next day to deal with government affairs, and it will be decided soon. After his death, his family opened the bookcase and saw the books inside. It turned out to be an Analects of Confucius.
Zhao Pu is calm and serious. Although he is jealous and mean to others, he can take world affairs as his responsibility. In the early Song Dynasty, most people in the post of Prime Minister were too cautious, rigidly attached to details, and played by routine, while Zhao Pu was highly effective and decisive, and no one could compare with him. He once recommended someone, but Mao didn't need this person. Zhao Pu invited this person (an official) again the next day, but Mao still didn't want it. On the third day, Zhao Pu got angry with this person (official). Mao got angry, tore up the paper and threw it on the ground. Zhao Pu look the same. He knelt on the ground, picked up the torn paper and went home. A few days later, Zhao Pu mended the torn old paper and played it again as before. Mao just woke up and finally hired the man.
