In order to be persuasive, Liu Wen Zheng continued stubbornly, "Prince An is well-read with indisputable talent, and being the elder brother of your Highness, he is surely capable of taking on this important role."
In truth, he was out of compliments; Prince An was indeed reputed to be talented, but whether he still had the ability was anybody's guess.
After all, Prince An had not attended court for many years.
Yan Anzhi listened and seemed thoughtful. Yanxuan...Though his reputation wasn't stellar, he was still a royal brother. When their father was alive, he used to praise Yanxuan often and had him study under Yanxuan.
Therefore, there was no question of Yanxuan's ability, and as a brother, it would be better than giving such an important position to an outsider.
