No one dared to speak out of turn. Moreover, Lu Min, who was acquainted with County Magistrate Qiao and the Qiao Family, knew that the servants of the Qiao Family were telling the truth.
Even though Qiao Xuan had severed all ties with County Magistrate Qiao and had no connection with the Qiao Family, County Magistrate Qiao was still Qiao Xuan's father, and public discussions about them were inevitable. Who could prevent that?

Regardless, the Qiao Family was content with their arrangement and showed no inclination to expose or oppose them.
Who could predict if Madam Shao would show mercy?
