Chapter 1694: Qiao Xuan’s Eye Opened Up Chapter 1694: Qiao Xuan’s Eye Opened Up Editor: Henyee Translations Mrs.
Guan continued her tirade in front of Qiao Xuan, portraying the former bailiffs as ruthless robbers who had assaulted her Old Master, resulting in his bone fracture.
How dreadful… Certainly, she omitted the truth.
According to her version, the former bailiffs had gathered at their residence after being dismissed by Lord Shao.
Seeking Old Master Guan’s assistance, they were met with rejection.
Surprisingly, they grew disheartened and initiated a brawl… The more Mrs.
Guan spoke, the more convinced she became of this narrative.
Each word fueled her sense of injustice.
Occasionally, she cast blameful glances at Qiao Xuan, as if Shao Yunduan was solely responsible for Deputy Prefect Guan’s predicament.
Portraying Old Master’s push, injury, and fracture as insufficient, Mrs.
Guan also painted a poignant picture of her family’s misery.
Qiao Xuan had her eyes opened.
The dramatic performance seemed remarkably convincing.
If she wasn’t aware of the intricacies, she might have believed it.
Sympathy filled Qiao Xuan’s eyes as she sighed.
“I never expected such a turn of events.
We women lack the art of deception.
These words circulate, and discerning their truth bees challenging!
Mrs.
Guan, if you feel wronged, why not return and discuss it with Deputy Prefect Guan?
We can present the case in court, letting the citizens impartially judge it in public.” “It would spare Mrs.
Guan a lot of trouble!” Implicitly, Qiao Xuan made it clear she didn’t believe a word of Mrs.
Guan’s story.
So, accusing Lord Shao and blaming him for the Guan Family’s woes was out of the question.
Mrs.
Guan was infuriated.
Was there no sympathy at all?
After her lengthy narration, this was the response she received?
Had Lord Shao been involved right from the beginning?
If it weren’t for Lord Shao seeking personal revenge and the subsequent suspension of his Old Master, the chain of events leading to his current state wouldn’t have unfolded.
Naturally, the situation wouldn’t have escalated to this point.
At this juncture, Mrs.
Guan refrained from demanding responsibility or pensation.
Surprisingly, Madam Shao displayed no embarrassment and dismissed the matter.
“Public trial?
I wouldn’t dare!” Mrs.
Guan sneered.
“Some people are shameless.
If they don’t participate, they’ll face slander, and no amount of washing will make them clean!
Poor Old Master.
He dedicated himself to helping Lord Shao, only to end up in such a state!” Qiao Xuan, growing annoyed, retorted, “Mrs.
Guan, if you believe Deputy Prefect Guan is unjustly treated in his position, why not suggest he resign?
Though he hasn’t been with our Lord for long, Lord Shao has always been generous.
He would undoubtedly receive a substantial pensation package and not suffer a loss!” Mrs.
Guan abruptly stood up, her expression changing.
“Madam Shao, what do you mean?
Are you trying to drive our Old Master away?
Is this your idea or Lord Shao’s?” Qiao Xuan stared at her.
“I also want to ask, Mrs.
Guan, why have you e here to share all this nonsense with me?
Don’t insinuate anything; I don’t prehend your implications.
Let’s clear things up.” “You are the one feeling wronged.
Why should I be the one accused of wanting to dismiss you?
If you’re aggrieved, you have the choice not to endure it!”
