Giving It to Her
Editor: Henyee Translations
The sum of 80,000 taels of silver was undeniably substantial.
Had it not been for Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan, no one else could have procured such a significant amount for the Prefect.
It raised a dilemma…
How could this Prefect maintain any dignity and confidence in front of these affluent families?
It was no wonder each Prefect's tenure was short-lived. Beyond the threats posed by bandits and outlaws, the influence of these powerful families might also play a role.
If these prominent families were covertly connected to the bandits and outlaws, each Prefect would likely seethe with frustration yet dare not voice their grievances.
What a vexing situation…
Qiao Xuan remained silent, and Fan Ruyin reveled in her satisfaction.
Being the Prefect's wife didn't alter the fact that money could overwhelm even a hero. Without funds, how could one hope to control the Fan family? Lord Prefect was too naive.
