However, Qiao Xuan had been preoccupied with her exploration plans, causing her to overlook the absence of visitors for the past few days.

Lixia and Liqiu chuckled at her realization.

“Madam, you’ve just noticed this now!”

“Those people aren’t worth worrying about, Madam.

Don’t let it bother you!”

“Exactly!”

Qiao Xuan joined in the laughter, acknowledging her lack of popularity among certain circles.

“It appears I’m not winning any popularity contests.

Their families are quite organized.

Ask Sun Bai to find out what’s going on.”

“I don’t mind if they come or not, but I’d like to know the reason behind their organized actions!”

Lixia agreed and promptly conveyed the message to Sun Bai.

While Qiao Xuan had momentarily forgotten about the issue, Shao Yunduan had not.

He had instructed Sun Bai to investigate the matter two days earlier.

However, he chose not to mention it to Qiao Xuan, hoping she would forget about it.

Upon hearing Lixia’s report, Qiao Xuan quickly received the results.

According to Sun Bai’s findings, Old Lady Fan had taken the initiative to inform the Huo Family and the Mei Family.

She subtly suggested that they distance themselves from the new Prefect, fearing the couple might not take them seriously.

The Mei Family and the Huo Family, being local powerhouses, resisted any changes in Anze Province.

They were displeased with Shao Yunduan’s arrival and had initially aimed to promote Deputy Prefect Guan to the position of Prefect.

After all, Deputy Prefect Guan had been in Anze Province for many years, fostering relationships with the locals.

Choosing a familiar face seemed more favorable to them.

In the preceding years, the Imperial Court had rotated Prefects in Anze Prefecture with remarkable frequency, resembling a constant turnover of personnel, revolving doors, and a game of musical chairs.

The local families were growing impatient with the persistent changes.

Adapting to a new Prefect repeatedly was undesirable for everyone!

Moreover, Anze Province’s unique geographical location and the composition of its personnel made it challenging for any prominent family to establish and develop here without engaging in some questionable dealings.

This complexity further fueled the discontent.

Initially, Deputy Prefect Guan saw some progress in his aspirations.

With more effort, he anticipated success.

However, the Imperial Court abruptly altered its decision, appointing this new Primus.

This sudden turn of events not only shattered Deputy Prefect Guan’s aspirations but also left the major families profoundly disinterested.

Given the circumstances, their animosity toward Shao Yunduan deepened.

Now, with Old Lady Fan suggesting that they ignore Madam Shao and assess Lord Shao, everyone readily agreed.

After all, testing him couldn’t hurt.

Lord Shao wouldn’t take drastic measures over such a trivial matter, right?

Moreover, since the Fan family held a prominent position, it was necessary to show respect to Old Lady Fan.

The reason behind Old Lady Fan’s actions didn’t surprise them.

She had always been proud and capricious.

Even if no one had offended her, simply disliking someone was enough reason for her to launch an attack.

If the new Lord Shao was disliked by Old Lady Fan, she would intensify her aversion.

The other family clans typically followed the intentions of the three heads.

If the three heads didn’t act, the other families refrained from doing so as well.

This was why Qiao Xuan found herself so unpopular.

For days, no one came to visit.

Qiao Xuan’s decision to hire people for land exploration only fueled the families’ displeasure.

Were they truly going to settle here?
