世祖詔舉士，竟陵王子良薦思遠及吳郡顧暠之、陳郡殷叡。 Emperor Wu ordered scholars to be recommended; Prince Jingling of Ziliang recommended Siyuan, Gu Haozhi of Wu Commandery, and Yin Rui of Chen Commandery.

邵陵王子貞爲吳郡，世祖除思遠爲吳郡丞，以本官行郡事，論者以爲得人。 When Prince Shaoling of Zizhen held Wu Commandery, Emperor Wu appointed Siyuan as Assistant Administrator and had him run the commandery in his existing capacity; commentators judged this an excellent appointment.

初，高宗廢立之際，思遠與晏閑言，謂晏曰：「兄荷世祖厚恩，今一旦贊人如此事，彼或可以權計相須，未知兄將來何以自立。 Earlier, when Emperor Gao was deposing and enthroning emperors, Siyuan spoke privately with Yan and said, "Brother, you received great favor from Emperor Wu; now you have aided others in such a coup—they may need you for their schemes; I do not know how you will stand on your own afterward.
