And so, Yuan Shu thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure out what kind of life he really wanted.
Yuan Shao had previously joined the Imperial Guard, and he wanted to join as well, but he could never pass the assessment.
Yuan Shao has now become a leading figure among the younger generation thanks to his military achievements, while I can only rely on my father and family's influence to find a job.
This was unacceptable to the proud Yuan Shu.
