On the ninth day of the Chinese New Year, Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan received unexpected guests. Yuezheng Xiao arrived with the Deputy Prefect of Yuzhang Province.
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan were both surprised and pleased by their visit.
Due to his official position, Shao Yunduan had not openly maintained contact with the Yuezheng Family. However, Yuezheng Xiao had secretly been supplying Shao Yunduan with provisions, keeping their connection alive.
This time, Yuezheng Xiao came accompanied by the Deputy Prefect of Yuzhang Province. Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan had already surmised their purpose. They were both intrigued and gratified.
