Chapter 1902: Distributing Money to Eliminate Disasters Chapter 1902: Distributing Money to Eliminate Disasters Editor: Henyee Translations “That Shao may have caught the Tiger Head Tribe off guard, but using the same tactic on the Min Family Tribe and Liuhe Fort?
Highly improbable.
What are the odds?
And when he’s gone, who will be privy to our family’s deeds?” Second Old Master Fan had a revelation.
“I see now why you’ve been so curious about themaEUR|” First Old Master Fan shook his head with a bitter smile.
“Ever since Lord Shao assumed office, his actions have been nothing short of decisive.
Moreover, there were reports of hundreds of bandits and their families being escorted out of Anze Province.
Witnesses abound.
How could it be fabricated?” “I’ve also heard of officials lurking near the Min Family Tribe and Liuhe Fort.
Those mountain bandits hardly dare to venture down.
Lord Shao’s might is beyond measure.” “Even if he ultimately fails, the Min Family Tribe and Liuhe Fort won’t emerge unscathed.
At the very least, they’ll suffer internal strife.
And wouldn’t the imperial court send troops to quell them then?” “Even if the court doesn’t intervene, the Min Family Tribe and Liuhe Fort aren’t exactly paragons of virtue.
If we’re deeply entangled, will they allow us to sever ties easily?
Will we have to live under their threat indefinitely?
Can Mother guarantee that the imperial court won’t crush the bandits or that our secret won’t come to light?
Once exposed, our family will face plunder and exile!” “It’s like a sword dangling over our heads!” There were boundaries that shouldn’t be crossed.
In the past, even when the Fan Clan negotiated with the Mountain Bandits, they knew when to stop.
Both sides maintained a careful distance, ensuring no incriminating evidence exchanged hands.
But Fan Ruyin’s actions were foolish.
She’d welcomed danger with open arms, inviting disaster!
What made matters worse was her refusal to admit fault.
She genuinely believed she was acting in the family’s best interests.
Her stubbornness grated on First Old Master Fan.
He contemplated splitting up, even if it meant enduring hardship.
Old Lady Fan was at a loss for words.
Fan Ruyin, trembling, glanced at her mother and brothers, feeling a sense of unease.
Finally, after a prolonged silence, Old Lady Fan spoke in a hushed tone, “If we report this to the authorities, will they not pursue the matter?” “Mom!” “Quiet!” First Old Master Fan snapped at Fan Ruyin, resisting the urge to scoff at his mother’s optimism.
“How could the government not pursue this?
Do you realize the gravity of our situation?
But if we confess, even if they do, it’s justaEUR| it’s just forfeiting some assets and enduring a few punishments.
It’s far better than risking the annihilation of our entire family.” Fan Ruyin interjected anxiously, “That’s not acceptable!
Can the Fan family still uphold its status as one of the three major families in Anze Province?
Lord Shao will demand a hefty price!” First Old Master Fan shot her a cold glare.
“Being associated with banditry is a capital offense, punishable by confiscation, exile, or even execution.
Do you still care about our family’s reputation?
What use are titles and possessions if you’re dead?
You won’t even be able to hold onto those when the time comes!” Fan Ruyin’s complexion fluctuated between red and white, her heart throbbing painfully.
She couldn’t bear to continue, unable to meet First Old Master Fan’s gaze.
Second Old Master Fan winced, his teeth clenched in agony.
“I side with my elder brotheraEUR|” ‘What choice do I have?’ After a prolonged silence, Old Lady Fan sighed heavily.
“Forget it.
I won’t intervene.
Do as you see fit!
But I have one condition: your sister has been coddled since childhood.
I won’t allow her to suffer.”
