    Yan Zhigao held the appointment document and official seal tightly in his hand. Because he was so excited, his hands were trembling a little. It was not until he returned to the inn that his mood calmed down a little.

    "Congratulations, sir!"

    Master Xiao stood in front of the courtyard gate. As soon as he saw Yan Zhigao, he bowed in joy.

    Yan Zhigao was always tense outside. Now that he had returned to his own territory, he could no longer suppress the joy in his heart. The corners of his mouth couldn't stop rising: "Master, have you received the news?"

    Master Xiao smiled and nodded: "Brother Shounian knows some people in the government office. I sent someone to tell you early this morning that you may have to go up. Now looking at your look, I think your plan has come true.  "

    Yan Zhigao couldn't hide the joy on his face, and said with a smile: "Let's go into the house and talk."

    As soon as the two of them entered the main room, Yan Wenxiu and several other children ran over.

    Yan Wenxiu was older and knew that his father's promotion was related to the fate of the family. When he heard that Yan Zhigao came back, he hurriedly brought his younger brothers and sisters over, looking a little nervous.

    Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai didn't think too much, but they also knew the benefits of promotion, so they looked at Yan Zhigao and Master Xiao eagerly.

    The most calm among the four is Daohua.

    She is not a real child. After Xiao Yeyang gave her the jade pendant, and from the attentive and considerate attitude of the officials at the inn to her cheap father in the next few days, she had already guessed that her father would most likely be promoted.

    Now that her father is overjoyed, the result is self-evident.

    Yan Zhigao was so immersed in the joy of appreciation that he didn't notice the expressions of the four little guys, but Master Xiao on the side saw the reactions of the four people. He couldn't help but secretly feel for the calm Daohua again.  Thumbs up.

    When Daohua saw her brothers looking at them eagerly and not saying anything, she had no choice but to take advantage of her young age and asked Yan Zhigao with a smile: "Father, have you been promoted?"

    Yan Zhigao coughed reservedly and handed the document in question to Master Xiao beside him with a smile.

    Master Xiao took the document and read it at a glance. He couldn't help but said in surprise: "Xingzhou Zhizhou! Your Excellency has been promoted to three levels in a row?"

    Yan Zhigao nodded: "To be honest, I was also surprised when I saw the appointment documents!"

    Master Xiao immediately said: "With your senior qualifications and political achievements over the years, it is enough to be promoted to the prefecture! Xingzhou belongs to Beiding Prefecture. Beiding Prefecture is among the fifteen prefectures of Zhongzhou Province. Although it is only a middle prefecture, it is  But it faces the Grand Canal and has convenient transportation. As long as you pay attention to people's livelihood, you can still achieve political achievements."

    At this moment, Master Xiao is in an excited mood.

    When he was young, due to family reasons, he lost his qualifications for scientific examinations. He was unable to become an official for the rest of his life and found it difficult to realize his ambitions. He had been depressed for many years.

    Until the tenth year of Yongxing, he traveled to Zhongzhou Province and saw Magistrate Yan who went to the fields to encourage mulberry farming. He was deeply moved when he saw him eating and drinking with the farmers regardless of his status.

    After that, he took the initiative to join Magistrate Yan and became his master.

    "It's a pity that the personnel in the officialdom are complicated. Magistrate Yan comes from a poor family, and he has the aloofness of a scholar in his heart. He is unwilling to join forces with some people in the officialdom. As a result, he was suppressed by the superiors. He served as magistrate for nine years.

    ¡°Originally, he thought that Magistrate Yan had no hope of turning around, but he didn¡¯t expect that things would turn around and the opportunity would come.

    When he reaches middle age, he no longer thinks about becoming an official, he just wants to assist Mr. Yan who sincerely does practical things for the people, so that he can fully display the talents he has learned throughout his life.

    Although Xingzhou can only be regarded as a lower state, it actually governs four counties. If it is done well, there is no doubt that Mr. Yan can be promoted.

    Beside, Yan Wenxiu and others were very happy when they heard that Yan Zhigao had been promoted.

    Yan Wenkai: "Dad is now the Lord Zhizhou. Is that on the same level as the previous Dong Zhizhou?"

    No matter how restrained Yan Wenxiu is, he still has a smile on his face: "Yes, on the same level."

    Yan Wenkai immediately laughed: "Humph, next time I see Dong Xiangrong, let's see how proud he is!"

    "Don't cause trouble!" Yan Wenxiu glared at Yan Wenkai, "We have reconciled with Dong Xiangrong, and Dong Zhizhou has been too modest with etiquette. We are not allowed to mention this matter again when we meet in the future."

    ¡°As he spoke, Yan Wenxiu also looked at Daohua and Yan Wentao.

    Yan Zhigao and Master Xiao looked on with satisfaction on their faces.

    Master Xiao smiled and said, "The eldest son is becoming more and more like an elder brother!"

    Yan Zhigao didn¡¯t speak, but he had a look on his faceAgree.

    At this time, the boy ran in and said that officials were coming to see him.

    Yan Zhigao and Master Xiao quickly looked at each other.

    "In Fucheng, news spreads really fast!"

    Yan Zhigao turned around and ordered Yan Wenxiu to take Daohua and the others down, and then he and Master Xiao went out to greet them.

    In the next two or three days, the yard where Daohua and the others lived was never idle. Officials came to visit Yan Zhigao every day, regardless of whether they knew him or not.

    A few children were lying by the window, watching with interest Yan Zhigao and Master Xiao being escorted to and from them.

    Daohua: "Brother, are we going back?"

    Yan Wenxiu nodded: "Dad has a limited time to take office, and he has to go back to hand over the job. It should be just these two days. You should also prepare, don't be too busy when you leave."

    Daohua asked again: "By the way, brother, have you written to your mother to tell her about her father's promotion?"

    Yan Wenxiu smiled and nodded: "I wrote the letter back the day my father got the appointment documents. My mother should have received the letter by now."

    At the same time, Linyi County Government.

    Mrs. Li took the letter to Mrs. Yan's Songhe Courtyard with excitement on her face. The people in the second and third bedrooms received the news and hurriedly followed.

    "Mom, I'm so happy! Master, he has been promoted to the magistrate of Xingzhou!"

    Mrs. Yan was thinking about Daohua. When she heard this, she suddenly stood up: "Really?!"

    Mrs. Li quickly handed over the letter written by Yan Wenxiu: "It's absolutely true. Look, this is a letter from Wenxiu!"

    "Is the eldest brother really promoted?"

    As soon as Yan Zhiyuan entered the courtyard, he heard Mrs. Li's words. He immediately ran into the room in three steps and quickly came to Mrs. Yan's side.

    Mrs. Yan was holding the letter and reading it word by word. Since she didn¡¯t know many words, she read very slowly.

    Yan Zhiyuan was too slow and wanted to grab more letters: "Mom, give me the letter, and my son will read it to you."

    Mrs. Yan glared at her second son, but seeing her daughter-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter waiting anxiously, she handed the letter to Yan Zhiyuan.

    Yan Zhiyuan first read it himself to make sure that his eldest brother had really been promoted, and then he read the letter to everyone with a happy face.

    "Okay, okay, okay!"

    After listening to the letter, Mrs. Yan said several good words in a row, her eyes were a little red: "Zhi Gao is a fifth-grade official, and I will have the honor to see your father after I die."

    Seeing the old lady crying with excitement, Mrs. Li and others hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her.

    Mrs. Sun smiled and said: "Mom, where are you now? My eldest brother's official position will definitely become bigger and bigger in the future, and there are also Wenxiu and others. You just wait to be the old feudal lord!"

    The old lady burst into tears and smiled: "You are the only one who can speak, so I'll be waiting for you!"

    Mrs. Li saw that the old lady was well, and then said: "The master has been in office for a while, and he should be back in a few days. I think we should start packing now to avoid running out of time later."

    Yan Zhiyuan agreed with his face: "Sister-in-law is saying that Xingzhou is still some distance away from us."

    After talking for a while, everyone came out of the old lady¡¯s yard and then went back to their rooms to clean up.

    Shuangxinyuan.

    "Have you heard? What happened? Why is the old lady's yard so busy?" Aunt Lin asked her maid.

    The maid shook her head: "I didn't dare to get too close. I only knew that the uncle had written back. Seeing that the second master and second wife are so happy, it should be a good thing."

    Aunt Lin was a little dissatisfied that the maid didn't hear the exact news. She was about to blame her when she saw her younger brother hurried into the yard.

    "How did you come?"

    Master Lin¡¯s face was filled with joy: ¡°Sister, I¡¯m so happy, my brother-in-law has been promoted to the fifth rank of prefect, skipping three levels in a row!¡±

    Hearing this, Aunt Lin was surprised at first, and then she was ecstatic: "Really, who did you listen to?"

    Master Lin suppressed the joy in his heart and said excitedly: "It has spread all over the county government now. You know, Zhu Jiaoyu's family has connections in Fucheng. What he came to say cannot be wrong." (Remember the website address:  www.hlnovel.com
