interpretation

Source translation

In Emperor Xiaowen's time, some of the officials who were in the official position extended to their descendants and took their official names as surnames. Cang's and Ku's were the descendants of Cang's officials. Those high-ranking officials, who are paid 2000 yuan, are also content with their positions, like their careers, and then encourage them. No one has the mind to muddle along and be careless. After that, there was a slight change. The officials below Gongqing were in a hurry to each other, and changed their political affairs many times. When Sili and bu CI Shi found that the officials were negligent, they all impeached and promoted privacy. Some of the officials resigned after a few months in office, sent away the old and ushered in the new, and exchanged with each other on the road. The middle-class talents are willing to seek security, the lower class talents are afraid to take care of themselves, and the number of expedient self-interest seekers is increasing.
