Chapter 2180: Not Enough Information
Both of them were people he valued in the past, and one of them was even his confidant.
As he expected, his confidant was no longer employed in the government. However, he was originally a local, and he had accumulated a lot of wealth by following the governor Liu and fawning on him over the years, so he simply bought a store that was not too big, and continued to live in the provincial capital.
When Magistrate Liu came to his door, he was shocked.
Originally he was worried that Lord Shao would come after him and he was very scared. Later, when he saw that the provincial capital had been stabilized and everything in the government office was running normally and no one was being purged, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and planned to live a good life in the future.
Who would have thought that his former boss, who had been in cahoots with him, would come back again! Wouldn't that scare him to death?
And he came to the house at night! It was late at night, and he sounded sneaky! If Lord Shao suspected that he was dishonest and settled accounts with him, he would be in trouble!
He was so scared that he didn't even wait for Magistrate Liu to ask him anything. He just kept shaking his head to show that he knew nothing. He also said that he was going out right away and had no time to entertain the adults. He really had no time at all.
Magistrate Liu had thought that his subordinates, who had been flattering and attentive to him in the past, would be surprised and delighted to see him and would give him a warm welcome. He did not expect that he would be treated with disdain as if he were the god of plague, which made him very angry.
He also had a bad temper, and he couldn't stand being treated with such disdain, so he left with a gloomy face.
Prefect Liu was extremely disappointed. He finally understood that none of these people were good people...
What matters to him is only the position of prefect.
Prefect Liu barely had the courage to look for another person. But he knew he had to go, or he would not be able to report.
Fortunately, his former influence was still there, so he didn't care whether it was true or false. He summarized the information he had obtained and told Lord Yang.
Mr. Shao has indeed gone out of town to recuperate. I'm afraid Madam Shao is not easy to deal with...
Lord Yang frowned even more. A woman who didn't know anything would be hard to deal with even if he wanted to! I'm afraid she wouldn't understand anything he said...
That night, both of them were so restless that they could hardly sleep.
In the backyard of the government office, Qiao Xuan couldn't sleep either - she was too excited!
Shao Yunduan didn't know whether to laugh or cry...
The next morning, after breakfast, Shao Yunduan accompanied An An to the study, so that he could check An An's knowledge.
He was not worried about his wife's actions against Lord Yang and Prefect Liu.
Qiao Xuan even went to the prefectural yamen specially for this purpose and invited Lord Yang and Prefect Liu to the flower hall.
Lord Yang didn't even want to talk to her, so Prefect Liu said, "Please ask Madam Shao to ask someone to take us out of the city to see Lord Shao! The emperor has issued an order, and Lord Shao needs to receive it in person! This is an imperial decree. To disobey an imperial decree is a capital crime, and it is no joke! Madam Shao, please don't be confused, otherwise, you will implicate the entire Shao family, and Madam Shao will become the eternal sinner of your husband's family!"
Qiao Xuan smiled after hearing this: "It's hard to say whether this will implicate him or not. My husband was fine and did nothing wrong, but he was framed and almost killed. If it weren't for my husband's desperate efforts, the Shao family would have been gone by now!"
"Lord Liu keeps saying the imperial decree, this - I really can't believe it! Who knows if he is just kidding? Everyone knows that the Sun family is powerful and there is nothing they dare not do..."
