    Beijing, Yan Mansion.

    After Yan Zhigao received the letter from his eldest daughter, he immediately called Yan Wenxiu to the main courtyard and handed him the letter. After he read it, he asked, "What do you think?"

    Yan Wenxiu thought for a while, looked at Yan Zhigao and Mrs. Li and said, "Father, mother, my son wants to go."

    Mrs. Li didn¡¯t know much about what was going on outside. She looked at Yan Zhigao and didn¡¯t say anything.

    Yan Zhigao was silent for a while: "It doesn't matter if you go to Xiliang. Our family's foundation in the capital is weak. If you stay in the capital, you will have to suffer in the Hanlin Academy. If you want to go abroad, you may not be able to go anywhere."  ideas."

    "Go to Xiliang. At least Yeyang and your sister are there. With their help, you can gain a better foothold. Yeyang should be in need of manpower now. If you go, you can also help him.  .¡±

    "Xiliang may not be as good as other provinces. It is not only bitter and barren, but also people from Xiliao are eyeing it. But the more problems there are, as long as you manage it well, promotion will be easier than elsewhere."

    Yan Wenxiu also thinks so. The good official positions here in the capital are nothing but pitfalls. The Yan family is simply not better than other families. Some idle official positions are a waste of time.

    He is still young and still has ambitions in his heart. He does not want to stay in the capital and scheming with others. He also wants to govern a land.

    Xiliang is barren. Others are afraid of not being able to achieve political achievements, but he is not afraid.

    There is no other way. With a sister who is quite accomplished in farming, he can get high-yield grain seeds more easily than others.

    Yan Zhigao continued: "When I go to Xiliang, I don't worry about anything else. You must pay attention to safety issues."

    Yan Wenxiu nodded: "Don't worry, father. Wen Tao and Wen Kai know many soldiers who have retired from the battlefield. With Wen Tao's help, our son should be able to hire a group of people. Safety is not a problem."

    Hearing this, Yan Zhigao felt relieved.

    Now the older children of the Yan family can take charge of themselves and support each other.

    Mrs. Li saw that the father and son had agreed, and then she interrupted: "Yi Yi probably wants us to recommend a few more people. Let's take a look. Do you want to talk to a few other uncles?"

    Yan Wenxiu didn't speak, waiting for the father, the head of the family, to speak.

    Yan Zhigao thought for a moment: "Let's talk about it. It's up to them whether they want to go or not."

    The next day, Yan Yihuan, Yan Yishuang, and Yan Yile returned to Yan Mansion with their husbands.

    After they bowed and took their seats, Yan Zhigao said: "Yiyi wrote that there is a shortage of civil affairs officials in Xiliang. I would like to ask if you are willing to go there?"

    Hearing this, Xue Yi, You Kai and Fang Shuo all looked straight.

    Xue Yi thought for a while and asked: "Father-in-law, Xiliang has a health center management system. What can we do in the past?"

    When Yan Zhigao saw his son-in-law, he immediately asked about the point and said with a smile: "Ye Yang said, if you go to Xiliang, you will be responsible for the civil affairs of the guardhouse."

    Xue Yi pondered. They came from the imperial examination and it is not difficult to manage civil affairs.

    You Kai just won the Jinshi this year. Although he is at the bottom of the top three, he can still be an official in the court. Unfortunately, the You family has no connections, and he is still waiting for a job.

    You Kai looked at Yan Wenxiu: "Brother, can you go?"

    Yan Wenxiu smiled and nodded: "It has been three years since I joined the Hanlin Academy. I want to go out and try my best."

    You Kai¡¯s expression changed. His brother-in-law was going to go, and he had some thoughts.

    The eldest sister would never cheat her biological brother.

    At this time, Fang Shuo spoke: "Uncle, isn't it appropriate for us to go to Xiliang now?"

    Yan Zhigao frowned slightly. He understood what Fang Shuo meant. Xiliao was eyeing Xiliang and would fight Daxia sooner or later. Going now, if there happened to be a war, personal safety would be a problem.

    ?????????????????? But in everything, there is something to be gained rather than something to be given up. Once Xiliang is safe and stable, there will be more people who want to go, and a good position may not be their turn.

    He is not satisfied with this niece-in-law.

    Too shrewd and calculating!

    "As for me, I'm just asking what you mean. Whether you want to go or not depends on you."

    ¡°It¡¯s true that Xiliang is still a bit unstable right now. You all should think about it carefully, go home and discuss it with your family, and give me an answer as soon as possible.¡±

    After saying that, Yan Zhigao stood up and left.

    As soon as he left, Xue Yi and the other three became less restrained and immediately started discussing with Yan Wenxiu.

    Yan Zhi walked out of the courtyard and met Yan Wenjie and Yan Wenbin. Knowing that they??Maybe he came here after receiving the news. After thinking about it, he went over to talk to the two of them.

    "Wenjie, although you are a candidate now, you'd better prepare well for the next scientific examination. Although you can be promoted as a candidate, it will be very difficult to get promoted in the future."

    "Wenbin, passing the examination is just the beginning. Your most important task now is to concentrate on your studies and not be disturbed by external affairs."

    That day, Yan Yihuan and others left Yan Mansion after dinner.

    On the way back, the three couples were discussing whether to go to Xiliang.

    Yan Yishuang said to Xue Yi: "Based on my understanding of eldest sister, if Xiliang is not a good place to go, she probably won't let eldest brother go."

    "Then there is the eldest brother-in-law. He is actually very arrogant. Since he went to Xiliang, he probably won't come back unless he does something."

    Xue Yi listened carefully to his wife's analysis: "After I get back, my father and I will discuss it again."

    Yan Yishuang said no more.

    On the other side, You Kai is also asking Yan Yihuan for her opinion.

    Yan Yihuan thought for a moment and said, "Today my uncle mentioned going to Xiliang. I observed his expression. He actually wants us to go."

    "There are some things that uncle may not be able to tell us openly, but if going to Xiliang is not good for us, he will not say anything."

    You Kai nodded: "Brother, let's go. I'm actually heartbroken."

    Yan Yihuan added: "Didn't you always say that my eldest uncle was promoted quickly? In addition to the help of my eldest brother-in-law, the reason here is that the place where my eldest uncle works is not a good place."

    ¡°The more problems and poorer the place, the easier it is to achieve outstanding political achievements.¡±

    Hearing this, You Kai¡¯s eyes lit up, and he smiled and held Yan Yihuan¡¯s hand: ¡°Madam, you are absolutely right.¡±

    "The carriage where Yan Yile and Fang Shuo were sitting was a little quiet.

    Because of the concubine incident, Yan Yile was angry with Fang Shuo. If she didn't want her family to laugh at her, she wouldn't have wanted to come back.

    Fang Shuo was silent for a while, thought about it, and then took the initiative to speak softly. After coaxing Yan Yile, he asked: "Brother is going to Xiliang, what do you think?"

    Yan Yile frowned. She knew that if Fang Shuo went to Xiliang, she would either go with him or stay at home, but she wanted neither of those two things.

    She didn¡¯t want to suffer the bitter cold in Xiliang; when she stayed at Fang¡¯s house, her mother-in-law couldn¡¯t see her for a moment, and when her father-in-law left, what else could she have to do in her life?

    "When I went to Xiliang, my elder brother-in-law must have had help from his side, so I let him go. Of course, my uncle wanted more people to help him, so he took us with him."

    "But the conditions in Xiliang are so bad, and the people from Xiliao are looking at us, why do we have to suffer? My husband, it's not like you don't have an official position in the capital."

    Fang Shuo frowned and said, "But my job is just a casual job. I can't keep wasting my time."

    Yan Yile saw that Fang Shuo wanted to go, so she thought for a while and said, "My husband, it will be difficult to return to the capital after you have gone to work somewhere."

    This is where Fang Shuo hesitates the most: "I'm thinking about it."

    Two days later, Yan Zhigao received a reply from his son-in-law and niece-in-law.

    "Both Xue Yi and You Kai are willing to go, but Fang Shuo won't go."

    After hearing this, Mrs. Li smiled and said nothing.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
