  Chapter 920 Chapter 920, different choices

  Beijing, Yan Mansion.

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

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

  Mrs. Li doesn’t know much about external affairs. She looked at Yan Zhigao, but did not make any remarks.

Yan Zhigao was silent for a while: "Whether you go to Xiliang, our family's foundation in the capital is weak, and we have been staying in the capital. You can only suffer in the imperial palace. ideas."

"When you go to Xiliang, at least there will be Yeyang and your sister there. With their help, you will be able to get a better foothold. Yeyang should need manpower now, and you can help him if you go. ."

  “Xiliang may not be as good as other provinces. Not only is it bitterly cold and barren, but also the people of Xiliao are eye-catching, but the more problems you have, as long as you manage well, promotion will be easier than elsewhere.”

  Yan Wenxiu thinks the same way. The good official posts in the capital are all a turnip and a pit. The Yan family is not strong enough to win against others. Some idle official posts are a waste of time.

  He is still young and he has ambitions in his heart. He doesn't want to stay in the capital to fight with others. He also wants to manage a piece of land.

  West Liang is barren, and he is not afraid of other people’s political achievements.

  No way, there is a younger sister who is quite knowledgeable in farming, and he can get high-yield grains more easily than others.

  Yan Zhigao continued: "When I went to Xiliang, I don’t worry about anything else. It’s a safety issue. You must pay attention to it."

  Yan Wenxiu nodded: "Father rest assured, Wen Tao Wenkai knows a lot of soldiers who have retired from the battlefield. Wen Tao leads the line, and his 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 stand alone and support each other.

  Ms. Li saw that the father and son had finished talking, and then interjected: "Yiyi meant that we should recommend a few more people. Tell me, do you want to talk to the other uncles?"

  Yan Wenxiu did not speak, waiting for the head of the family’s father to speak.

  Yan Zhigao thought for a while: "Let's say it, it's up to them to go or not."

  The next day, Yan Yihuan, Yan Yishuang, and Yan Yile returned to Yan's house with their respective husbands.

  After they saluted and took their seats, Yan Zhigao said, "Yiyi wrote in a letter saying that there is a shortage of civil affairs officials in Xiliang, and I want to ask if you would like to go there?"

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

  Xue Yi thought for a while and wanted to ask: "Father-in-law, Xiliang is the management system of the Weisuo, what can we do in the past?"

   Yan Zhigao asked his son-in-law about the idea and said with a smile: "Yeyang said, if you go to Xiliang, you will be responsible for the civil affairs of the health station."

  Xue Yi pondered. They were born in the imperial examination, and it is not difficult to manage civil affairs.

  Youkai just got a jinshi this year. Although it is the end of the top three, he can still be an official in the DPRK. Unfortunately, You have no way out. He is still waiting for a post.

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

  Yan Wenxiu smiled and nodded: "I have been in the Hanlin Academy for three years, I want to go out and venture."

  You opened his expression and moved, and the eldest brother was going to go, he was a little moved.

  The eldest sister will never cheat her elder brother.

  At this time, Fang Shuo said: "Uncle, we are going to Xiliang now, is it inappropriate?"

   Yan Zhigao frowned slightly invisibly. He understood what Fang Shuo meant. Xiliao looked forward to Xiliang and would fight Daxia sooner or later. Now, if there happens to be a war, personal safety will be a problem.

   But everything is better than something to give up. When Xiliang is safe and stable, there will be more people who want to go, and they may not be in a good position.

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

  Too shrewd, too good at calculating!

   "What about me, I'm just asking you what you mean, it depends on you if you go or not."

   "There is indeed some instability in Xiliang right now. Think about it, go home and discuss it with your family, and give me an answer as soon as possible."

  After speaking, Yan Zhigao got up and left.

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

  Yan Zhi went out of the yard, and met Yan Wenjie and Yan Wenbin, knowing that they might have come here after they received the news, after thinking about it, or talking to them in the past.

   "Wen Jie, although you are a Juren now, it is better to prepare for the next scientific examination. Although Juren can be accepted as an official, future promotion will be very difficult."

   "Wen Bin, the talents in the exam are just the beginning. Your main task now is to concentrate on reading and don't be disturbed by foreign affairs."

  On the same day, Yan Yihuan and others left Yan's 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 what I know about my big sister, if Xiliang is not a good place, she shouldn't let my big brother go."

   "There is also the older brother-in-law. He is actually very arrogant. Since he went to Xiliang and didn't do anything, he probably won't come back."

  Xue Yi listened carefully to his wife’s analysis: “After I go back, I will discuss with my father again.”

  Yan Yishuang didn't say more.

  On the other side, You Kai is also asking Yan Yihuan’s opinion.

  Yan Yihuan thought for a while and said: "Today my uncle mentioned going to Xiliang, I have the look of observing him, he actually wants us to go."

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

  You nodded and said: "Big brother is going, I'm actually heartbroken."

  Yan Yihuan said again: "Didn't you always say that your uncle is promoted quickly? In addition to the help of the older brother-in-law, the place where the uncle works is not a good place."

   "The more problematic and barren the place, the easier it is to show outstanding achievements."

   Hearing this, You opened his eyes brightly, smiled and held Yan Yihuan's hand: "Madam is right."

  And the carriage where Yan Yile and Fang Shuo were was a little quieter.

  Because of the concubine's affairs, Yan Yile is stunned with Fang Shuo. If she didn't want her mother's family to watch the joke this time, she didn't want to come back.

  Fang Shuo was silent for a while, after thinking about it, he took the initiative to speak softly, coaxed Yan Yile, and then asked: "Big 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 neither of these was what she wanted.

  Xiliang is bitterly cold, so she should not suffer; staying at the house, the mother-in-law sees her for an instant, and the husband is gone, what else is there in her life?

  "My eldest brother must go to Xiliang because the eldest brother-in-law lacked a helper before letting him go. Naturally, the eldest uncle wanted more people to help the eldest brother-in-law, which brought us together."

   "But the conditions in Xiliang are so bad, and the people from Xiliao are watching, why do we have to suffer? Xianggong, you are not without official positions in the capital."

  Fang Shuo frowned and said, "But my job is just a spare job, I can't waste time forever."

  Yan Yile saw Fang Shuo want to go, and thought about it for a while and said: "Msang Gong, it's hard to go back to the capital when you go to work in a place and go back to the capital."

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

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

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

  Mrs. Li listened, smiled and said nothing.
