There are many powerful people in the capital, and a brick thrown at random can hit an official. You have to be more cautious in your actions to avoid causing trouble for your family.
Thinking about it this way, it’s really better to live in Wuding than in the capital.
However, Jingcheng is the capital of Daxia and the place where Daxia's fortune gathers. Everyone in his family is working hard in Jingcheng, so it is not convenient for Yan Cheng to stay outside.
What's more, he is not the kind of person who likes to live a leisurely life, so he naturally has his own pursuits when going to the capital.
It's rare to live in ancient times, and it's nice to experience the feeling of having power in your hands.
Yan Cheng chose the path of imperial examination to enter the officialdom. After arriving in the capital, he would definitely find an academy for in-depth study. If one were to talk about the capital's premier place for studying, it would definitely be the Imperial College.
However, not everyone can enter the Imperial College. There are two ways to get in: one is to pass the exam, and the other is to get in based on family background.
To be admitted to the Imperial College, one must at least have the title of Juren. Based on family background, only families with officials of the third rank or above can send someone in.
Yan Guangyi happened to be a third-rank official, and his family had a quota for admission to the Imperial College without taking an exam. He had told Yan Cheng that he would use this quota to send him to the Imperial College.
However, Yan Cheng refused, and said confidently in front of Yan Guangyi that with his intelligence and talent, he could pass the imperial examination even if he did not enter the Imperial College.

Yan Cheng planned to take the entrance exam for Qinglian Academy. He asked someone about the scope of the entrance exam for Qinglian Academy and has been reviewing various knowledge during this period.
Yan Cheng was thinking about the various arrangements after going to the capital when he suddenly heard a small crying sound outside. It seemed like a child was crying. He blinked and tilted his head to look at Leng Yan.
The inn had poor soundproofing, so the sounds that Yan Cheng could hear were naturally heard by Leng Yan, who was more skilled in martial arts than Yan Cheng. However, he always ignored unimportant matters and pretended not to hear anything.
Noticing Yan Cheng looking at him questioningly, Leng Yan nodded: "There's a child crying outside. Are you interested? Do you want to go and see?"
