Chapter 1534 She Doesn’t Care
Shao Yunduan smiled generously after hearing what the wife of the prefect said, and immediately expressed his understanding: They were also concerned about his wife, so how could he blame the servants for being rude? It was the two girls in his family who were a little too impatient, which led to the misunderstanding.
The prefect's wife was immediately relieved and repeatedly said that it was just a misunderstanding!
The prime minister's wife was extremely unwilling. She knew rationally that it was inappropriate for her to say anything more, as saying more would arouse suspicion.
But she didn't care at all.
Even if Lord Shao suspected something, so what? He had no evidence! His Highness's people were naturally reliable and would not leave any traces.
What she had to do now was to use all possible means to expose the news of Qiao Xuan's disappearance, so as to gain merit in front of His Highness and make His Highness rely more on her and her husband in the future.
The Prime Minister's wife seemed to not understand the expression or the refusal, and under the pretext of concern, she repeatedly requested to visit Qiao Xuan in person.
"Don't worry, Master Shao. We will not disturb Madam Shao. We just really care about her and want to see her. Recovering from illness is the most annoying thing. We will chat with Madam Shao. Maybe Madam Shao will feel better and recover faster!"
"Besides, we are already here, Lord Shao won't be so disrespectful to us, right..."
The prefect's wife winked at her repeatedly, but she pretended not to see it.
The prefect's wife's face suddenly turned red, and she was so embarrassed that she wanted to disappear on the spot.
What on earth is wrong with this person? Wouldn't it be enough to meet Lord Shao and explain the matter clearly? Why did she have to meet Madam Shao? Moreover, if she really wanted to say something, she should just say her own part. Why did she have to drag herself into it?
She didn't think so!
But, she had already said it, and it was not easy for me to ruin her performance...
Shao Yunduan's face turned slightly cold as he looked towards the Prime Minister's wife.
He was already certain that the problem lay with this couple.
The wife of the chancellor secretly cursed Shao Yunduan for not having the slightest manners of a scholar, and said with a fake smile: "Shao, you won't disagree with this, right? Could it be... that Madam Shao is in a very bad condition now? Or is Madam Shao not at the post station at all?"
The prefect's wife was shocked and her face turned redder when she realized she had lost control. She couldn't help but said, "Sister, what are you talking about!"
The wife of the chancellor became even calmer and pressed on: "Sir Shao, did we guess it right? Is Madam Shao really not at the post station now? What happened to her? Is she missing? Sir Shao, please don't deny it. Do you dare to let us go into the room and take a look?"
"Mrs. Shao's disappearance is no small matter, and Lord Shao should not conceal it. If we don't find Mrs. Shao quickly, what if something bad really happens? Mrs. Shao happened in our Yanzhou City, and we also have an unshirkable responsibility!"
The Prime Minister's wife spoke quickly, anxiously, worriedly, and confidently. It was clearly a guess, but it sounded as aggressive as if it were the fact.
The wife of the prefect and all the servants were stunned! They were all stunned with their eyes wide open, but they felt for no reason that the wife of the prefect was right.
Otherwise, she wouldn't say it so confidently!
The prefect's wife was terrified and moved her lips, but in the end no words came out.
Shao Yunduan's expression turned colder: "Has Madam Qin finished talking? My wife is resting well in the bedroom. Isn't what Madam Qin said too much?"
