Chapter 1681 No One Came
But no one has come these days.
She had been busy thinking about land reclamation these days and had no time for anything else, so she didn't think about it for a while.
I couldn't help laughing at the beginning of summer and autumn.
"Ma'am, you finally thought of this!"
"Those people have no vision and are irrelevant. Madam, please don't take it to heart!"
"Yes, yes!"
Qiao Xuan also laughed: "It seems that I am not very popular! Their families are too neat. Tell Sun Bai to check what's going on."
"I don't care if they come or not, but I must know the reason why each family is so neat!"
Lixia agreed and immediately went to pass on the message.
Qiao Xuan forgot about this matter, but Shao Yunduan did not. He asked Sun Bai to check it two days ago.
However, Shao Yunduan hoped that Qiao Xuan would forget about this kind of annoying thing completely, so he would not take the initiative to mention it in front of her.
After Lixia passed on the message, Qiao Xuan immediately got the result.
According to Sun Bai's investigation, it was the old lady of the Fan family who took the initiative to send people to greet the Huo and Mei families, and hinted that they should give the new prefect some attention to prevent the couple from taking them too lightly.
The Mei family and the Huo family are also local tyrants, so naturally they don't like any changes to occur in Anze Prefecture.
In their hearts, they were all disgusted and repulsed by Shao Yunduan's arrival.
They originally wanted to push Guanzhou Cheng to the position of prefect. After all, Guanzhou Cheng had been in Anzezhou for so many years, and everyone was an old acquaintance and had a good relationship.
It is better to have Guanzhou Cheng take the position than to have a strange governor.
In recent years, the imperial court has replaced the governor of Anze Prefecture like a revolving door, and the major families have become a little impatient.
No one wants to have to adapt again!
The most important thing is that due to Anze Prefecture's special geographical location and personnel composition, any big family that can gain a foothold and develop here will more or less be involved in some shady things, which makes them even more reluctant to take on uncontrollable factors.
Originally, this matter had a clue of progress, and it would be accomplished as long as we made a little more effort.
Who knew that the imperial court suddenly changed its mind and sent this new top scholar over.
Not only did the hopes of Guanzhou Cheng come to nothing, but even the major families were also disappointed.
Under such circumstances, they naturally hated and were disgusted with Shao Yunduan even more.
Now Old Lady Fan asked everyone to ignore Mrs. Shao in order to test Lord Shao, and everyone went along with it and acquiesced.
Anyway, it’s not a bad thing to try it out.
It's impossible that Lord Shao would do anything to them over such a small matter, right?
Besides, the one taking the lead is the Fan family, they have a close relationship with the Fan family, and it would be hard for them to refuse to save face for Old Lady Fan.
As for why Mrs. Fan did this, they didn't find it strange.
The old lady of the Fan family has always been arrogant and narrow-minded. Even if others have not offended her, as long as she dislikes them, it is enough as a reason to attack others.
They don't even like the new Lord Shao, so Old Lady Fan will dislike him even more.
The other families always act according to the instructions of these three giants. If the three giants do not take any action, they certainly will not take any action either.
This is how Qiao Xuan became “extremely unpopular!”.
No one came to visit for so many days.
The fact that Qiao Xuan hired people to open up the wasteland in a big way made everyone feel unhappy: With this attitude, are they really going to live and settle down in Anze City forever?
Even better!
