隆禮罷太府，玄宗訪其子可代父任者，宰相以慎餘、慎矜、慎名皆得父清白。 When Longli stepped down from the palace storehouse, Xuanzong asked which son might succeed him. The chancellors replied that Shenyu, Shenjin, and Shenming had all inherited their father's spotless reputation.

帝喜，擢慎矜監察御史，知太府出納，慎餘太子舍人，主長安倉，慎名大理評事，為含嘉倉出納使，被眷尤渥。 The emperor was delighted. He promoted Shenjin to investigating censor with charge of palace storehouse receipts and disbursements, appointed Shenyu crown prince attendant to manage the Chang'an granary, and made Shenming a court reviewer and intake officer for the Hanjia granary. All three enjoyed exceptional favor.
