Do you know: I am Yuan Wenshao

Chapter 4 Two Conditions
"Father, our family is a lord. No one has served in the army these years, and basically has no influence in the army. If we want to revitalize the family, someone must serve in the army. The elder brother is a son who can't take risks, and the child is willing Go to serve in the army and rejuvenate the family." Yuan Wenshao said awe-inspiringly.

There's no way, he can't say that he wants to get a title and separate the family.

Yuan Weichang was a little moved, hesitated for a while and said: "You are going to get married next year, let's wait until you get married."

"Father, it will take about a year to get married no matter how quickly, and the child will just come back from leave." Yuan Wenshao said.

The ancient marriage etiquette was very complicated. It would take more than half a year to follow the three books and six etiquette procedures.

A slower one or two years is normal.

And these things don't require him to come forward at all, and it is completely useless for him to stay at home.

"My lord, it's a good thing that Shao'er has this ambition, and we should support it," Mrs. Yuan said.

In her opinion, if Yuan Wenshao joins the army and makes a name for himself, it will strengthen the reputation of the Earl of Zhongqin's House, which will also be good for the eldest son.

In addition, after Yuan Wenshao gets married, she will definitely stay at home for a long time, and she will be able to plan Hualan's dowry by then.

Yuan Weichang pondered and said: "Well, since you insist, then I will drag someone to find a job for you in the border army. Our family's connections were in the northwest. If you join the army, you can only go to the northwest. Have you thought clearly?"

The northwest faced Xixia, but during the reign of the late emperor, they fought with Xixia and were defeated, destroying most of the elite in the northwest. They have been at a disadvantage against Xixia in these years.

Xixia bullied the weakness of the Great Zhou, and often sent small groups of soldiers to plunder the territory of the Great Zhou, so small-scale wars often broke out.

If possible, Yuan Weichang wants Yuan Wenshao to go to the north. Although they face the more powerful Liao State there, the two countries have an alliance. In addition, the Zhou Dynasty donates annual coins to the Liao State every year. There has been a relationship between the two countries for decades. There was no war anymore.

"Dad, I've thought about it carefully."

Yuan Wenshao originally planned to go to the northwest. Although it is safe to go to the north, there will be no battles. If it is for safety, how can Bianjing be safe?

Small-scale wars often broke out in the Northwest, which was exactly what he wanted. He was a little afraid of large-scale wars, after all, no matter how strong his martial arts skills were, he would sometimes be exhausted.

"Let's eat first. I'll ask someone to ask about joining the army later," Yuan Weichang said.

After dinner, he chatted with his parents for a while, and then Yuan Wenshao resigned, because Yuan Weichang had been angry before, and it was rare to see a harmonious scene for a while.

"Second brother."

As soon as Yuan Wenshao left the main courtyard, his younger sister Yuan Wenying ran after her.

"You girl, why are you running in such a hurry?" Yuan Wenshao stopped quickly, saw her face was slightly red, looked at the maid behind her, and scolded: "Third sister is young and ignorant, you are not the servants. Do you know how to give me some advice?"

Yuan Wenying has the best relationship with him in this family.

Because there is only such a daughter in the family, both Yuan Weichang and Mrs. Yuan dote on her very much.

The maids who were reprimanded quickly admitted their mistakes, lowering their heads and not daring to breathe.

"Second brother doesn't blame them." Yuan Wenying defended herself as a servant girl, and then said with a smile: "Just now you didn't see how angry sister-in-law became, it was too relieved."

Because she was favored by her parents, five-year-old Yuan Wenying had a somewhat careless personality, which was often criticized by Ms. Feng, so she also disliked this elder sister-in-law very much.

Yuan Wenshao pinched her nose and said with a smile: "Just talk about this in private."

Yuan Wenying pushed away his hand, wrinkled her nose, and said angrily, "You think I'm stupid."

Although she has a carefree personality and her grades are not very old, it doesn't mean she doesn't have a heart at all.

"Second Young Master." Zhang An shouted at the gate of the courtyard.

In a place like the main courtyard, men like Zhang An are not allowed to enter without being summoned.

Yuan Wenshao originally wanted to tease his sister, but upon hearing Zhang An's words, he told Yuan Wenying to go back first and left the courtyard.

"what's up?"

"Second Young Master, the Second Young Master of Ningyuan Marquis Mansion is here. He said he wants to see the Second Young Master. He is now in the main hall of the Second Young Master's courtyard." Zhang An said.

"Gu Tingye?" Yuan Wenshao frowned slightly, why would this cheap future brother-in-law come to him?

Although they are both heirs of the lord and live in Bianjing, they have not crossed paths before.

Marquis Ningyuan was highly valued by the former emperor and the current officials, but he was not comparable to the down-and-out count of the Yuan family.

Gu Tingye's circle was not within Yuan Wenshao's reach.

That is to say, one of the friends he invited yesterday was a relative of the Gu family. He happened to meet Gu Tingye in Fan Lou, and invited him over for a few drinks.

He really couldn't figure out why Gu Tingye came to him suddenly.

But when someone came, he naturally couldn't see him, and the Yuan family couldn't afford to offend the Gu family.

Yuan Wenshao hurried back to his yard with doubts in his heart. As soon as he entered the main hall, he saw Gu Tingye sitting upright.

For some reason, he always felt that Gu Tingye looked familiar.

Yuan Wenshao didn't think much, he bowed his hands and said with a smile: "Gu Erlang is coming to visit, it's really brilliant. Why don't you send someone to notify him so that I can greet you."

Gu Tingye stood up and returned the greeting, smiling and saying: "Brother Yuan, you are too polite. I came uninvited. Just don't blame Brother Yuan."

Yuan Wenshao said twice that he didn't dare, asked Gu Tingye to sit down, and started chatting.

He knew that Gu Tingye's sudden visit must be something, but he did not ask, but waited for Gu Tingye to speak first.

After chatting for a while, Gu Tingye saw that Yuan Wenshao didn't intend to ask, so he said, "Brother Yuan, I want to ask you for help."

"Oh?" Yuan Wenshao pretended to be surprised and said, "Erlang said it's okay. I won't refuse if I can help."

"I heard that your mansion is getting married to the Yangzhou Tongpan Sheng family. I think I will go to Yangzhou to offer employment in the near future. I happen to have something to go to Yangzhou. I wonder if I can go with the Yuan family's ship." Gu Tingye said.

Yuan Wenshao's eyes flashed, so it turns out that maybe it was just for this reason that Gu Tingye was willing to have a drink with him yesterday.

Gu Tingye went to Yangzhou to inherit his grandfather's Bai family business, and he didn't tell the Gu family, so he went secretly.

But his grandfather is not the only one in the Bai family. The other Bai family members are definitely not willing to let a foreigner inherit his surname, and may have sent people to intercept him on the road.

Gu Tingye is not stupid. If he follows the boat sent by the Yuan family, there will naturally be no danger.

"This is a trivial matter, of course, but I would like to ask Erlang to agree to two conditions." Yuan Wenshao said with a smile.

"I wonder what the conditions are?" Gu Tingye thought that Yuan Wenshao was going to take advantage of him, so his face looked a little ugly.

Yuan Wenshao smiled and said, "I want Erlang to help me deliver a letter to someone from the Sheng family."

"Haha, I didn't expect Brother Yuan to be a man of character. I'll help with this." Gu Tingye thought that Yuan Wenshao had asked him to bring a letter to his wife who hadn't married yet.
