What if it does?

Shao Yunduan.

My love, you enjoy arguing, dont you?

Youre pus.h.i.+ng me away and not allowing me to voice my concerns?

No no, Im not pus.h.i.+ng you away! Shao Yunduan was completely thrown off track by Qiao Xuans persistent questioning. He sighed, caught between laughter and tears. But I am genuinely worried about your well-being in the capital

Qiao Xuan spoke softly, But youre not concerned about me when Im not in the capital?

Shao Yunduan was taken aback.

You dont want to see me after so many years?

Annoyance flashed across Shao Yunduans face.

I want to stay in the capital.

Shao Yunduan smiled as he looked at Qiao Xuan. Alright, lets stay together here!

Qiao Xuan smiled, tears still lingering. Dont worry, the Tian Family has little connection with us, and we might cross paths again soon. The Tian Family doesnt care about someone like me, a concubines daughter who knows little. But you, as an officer in the court with ties to the Tian Family and many acquaintances in the court, you need to be cautious!

I may not be able to a.s.sist you in other matters, but I can provide you with a peaceful home to rest in. Isnt that wonderful?

Shao Yunduan felt warmth spreading through his heart. He smiled. Who says you know nothing? Youre absolutely right! Im not afraid to resign, and I dont care about political intrigues. I can simply give up my position. Lets stay in the capital for as long as we can.

Qiao Xuan smiled in return.

Qiao Xuan appreciated his words, even though they seemed pointless and lacking motivation.

Upon reaching an agreement, they felt a sense of relief and relaxation, with reduced conflict.

This was why it was said that those who lacked desires should remain strong.

As long as he didnt exploit the Tian Family, they had nothing to threaten him with.

After the banquet, the prestige of the Advanced Scholar came to an end.

As scholars, they had successfully and gloriously completed their journey.

What awaited them next was another path to becoming an official.

How well they fared on this journey was uncertain.

Though each person had different qualifications to become an Advanced Scholar, they all started from the same point.

In 10 or 20 years, who knew what would transpire?

Perhaps the Primus would take no action, or the Advanced Scholar would rise to become a top-ranking officer.

Such possibilities existed.

They were both anxious and eager for the future, yet they silently swore not to become the most conspicuous individuals.

Shao Yunduan had already resolved not to dwell too much on this. He remained composed.

Observing the scene, he suddenly noticed a distinction.

When the Ministry of Personnel made the appointments, the positions were allocated one by one.

In the capital, there remained a total of 46 individuals, dispersed across the six departments, Hanlin Academy, and various other locations. Naturally, the newcomers who had recently been recruited held positions at the ninth or eighth grade, with the highest being seventh grade. Their starting point could not be any higher.

As for the rest of the group, they were dispatched as local officials throughout the country.

The distinction lay in the fact that some were stationed in Jiangnan, the Central Plain, or the remote southern regions, while others were a.s.signed to the bitterly cold and harsh territories in the northwest. This contrast was even more p.r.o.nounced than those who remained in the intermediate locations.
