The origin of Yan Xishan's name

Yan Xishan's nickname is Wanxi. One day, father and son were walking in the street, and they saw many people around watching the notice. They crowded in and saw that it was the enrollment of Shanxi Military Equipment School. After returning home, the father and son discussed it all night and decided to sign up. That night, Yan Fuyan Shutang tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

It is a great honor to think that my son can become an army attache after graduation when he is admitted to the armament school. Later, I remembered that if my son was still called a nickname when he became an official, it was really indecent to call him "Wanxi" and "Wanxi" everywhere, so I wanted to give my son a loud and lively official name. Because Yan Shutang has been superstitious for a long time, he thought of calculating a divination for his son to see if he could be admitted, and asked the fortune teller to help him take an official name.

Yan Shutang told the fortune teller Yan Wanxi's date of birth. After careful calculation, the fortune teller said that Yan Wanxi of LMNT was sure to pass the exam. Yan Shutang also asked the fortune teller to combine Yan Wanxi's life and give his son an official name. The fortune teller shook his head for a long time, and after repeated consideration, he finally decided to call it "Xishan". From then on, Yan Wanxi was renamed Yan Xishan.
