Chapter 2184 No More Compromise
Who would have thought that the next day, when he saw Qiao Xuan again, before he could say anything, Qiao Xuan started to complain unhappily: "Master Yang, please don't send people to inquire about my husband's whereabouts! This makes me very suspicious, what is Master Yang's purpose? Is he trying to kidnap my husband? Humph, you guys keep making small moves and have no sincerity at all, how can anyone trust you?"
"Before, those people from the Sun family tried to kidnap my husband!"
Lord Yang's words made her feel embarrassed and angry.
He could only reluctantly save his dignity: "Well... Madam Shao, please don't be angry. I've come all this way, I can't not even see Lord Shao, right? I came here with an imperial decree, how can I explain this to the Emperor when I go back? Besides, this won't be good for Lord Shao's reputation, right? It's not a good thing to disobey an imperial decree!"
Qiao Xuan snorted: "Don't scare me! I only know that in this world, nothing is more important than life. If you lose your life, how can you care about anything else? Our master has been wronged before, who knows if it will happen again?"
Lord Yang was both angry and aggrieved by her.
She was just making up all these nonsense and making up stories! What she said was totally wrong and not true at all, but this woman kept making up stories and no matter how I explained it to her, it was useless.
Because she only believes in her own logic, it doesn't make sense at all.
There is no way this meeting can go on.
So Lord Yang had to settle for the next best thing, he wanted to see Lord Jia. If he couldn't see Lord Shao, he could at least see Lord Jia, right?
He really didn't want to face Qiao Xuan again. It was a headache.
Unfortunately, even such a small request was not met.
Because Qiao Xuan told him that Lord Jia was very busy, especially after her husband went to recuperate, Lord Jia wanted to be used in two ways. Now he went to another county for inspection, and it was unknown when he would come back.
If they are willing to wait, then they can wait.
How could Lord Yang dare to wait? If he stayed here for too long, it would inevitably make people think too much.
What if someone spreads a rumor that he is "happy and not wanting to leave", how would he explain it?
If he tried his best and still got no results, he should go back and report.
The two sides argued for three or four days, and finally Qiao Xuan reluctantly agreed to write a letter for them to take back, which was considered as completing the task.
This was the biggest concession she could make, and it was impossible for her to take even a single step back.
Lord Yang originally wanted to press on and press further, so after a few probing words, Qiao Xuan immediately changed her attitude and even refused to give him the letter. Lord Yang was frightened and dared not say anything more.
Two days later, Lord Yang left Huaixi Province with Prefect Liu, taking a letter and those rare treasures.
The Huaixi Province was also not idle, and immediately spread the news that had been discussed long ago: the Second Prince sent people to recruit him, but in view of General Sun's previous actions and the great power of the Sun family, they did not dare to believe it easily...
The second prince was secretly angry when he saw that the two imperial envoys returned empty-handed and even the rewards he had given them were taken back intact.
After hearing the report from Lord Yang and Prefect Liu, he became even more furious.
This Shao Yunduan is so shameless and bold!
However, after reading the letter, he suddenly lost his temper.
Lord Yang thought that the letter was written by Shao Yunduan, but in fact, it was written by Qiao Xuan. After writing it, she asked Liqiu to copy it again before sealing it and handing it to Lord Yang.
