"What? My brother-in-law has been transferred out of Xiliang?!"
In the back courtyard of the Magistrate's office in Jinwei Prefecture, Xiu Yi looked at Yan Yishuang with a face full of shock.
Yan Yishuang handed the letter in her hand to Xiu Yi: "My brother-in-law has to report to Huaichuan Prefecture by mid-March. There's so little time that my sister couldn't deal with the fields, estates, and pastures here. She wrote asking me to help look after things."
Xiu Yi read the letter swiftly; it merely mentioned briefly that You Kai was being transferred and asked Yan Yishuang to help keep an eye on the You Family's properties here. It didn't elaborate on anything else.
"How could this happen so suddenly?"
As one of the first batch of officials to establish the prefecture, coupled with the relationship with the Prince of Wei Yuan, their continued tenure was almost a certainty. The sudden transfer of You Kai truly shocked Xiu Yi to the extreme.
