Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Xiang Weinan’s expression changed drastically. He raised his head and looked at Hu Li.

The next moment, he denied it outright. “What are you talking about? Exiled to the southwest? Who told you this? That’s nonsense.”

“Lord, please tell us the truth.” The old lady knelt again, her body trembling. “Scholar Tang from our village has just returned from the prefecture. He and his mother saw Yu being escorted out of the city by the exile team.”

Xiang Weinan suddenly stood up and thought, “F * ck, what the hell? What kind of luck was Lu Shuyu’s? Under such circumstances, she was still recognized by her fellow villagers.”

“This is utter nonsense. Why do you believe everything?” Xiang Weinan continued to deny it while instructing Hu Li, “Go to Shangshi Village and bring Scholar Tang and the others over. This matter of exile was an imperial decree. How dare they say such things? How could such rumors be spread? I don’t have any points.”

Hu Li knew that before Lady Lu’s matter spread, his Lord had to make the Tang family shut up.

He immediately nodded. “Yes, Lord.”

Hu Li turned around and left. Xiang Weinan said to Lu Erbai, “The Tang family must have a grudge against you. That’s why they made a big fuss about Lu Shuyu’s long journey. Do they have evidence? However, you don’t need to be anxious. I’ll get Scholar Tang to come over and let you guys confront each other on the spot.”

Lu Erbai lowered his eyes. Lord Xiang might not have known what kind of person Scholar Tang was.

However, he knew Tang Wenqian very well. They had been in the same village for so long. In addition, Tang Wenqian also contributed a lot to the Daya’s matter.

Although he spent most of his time studying in the county town, he did not interact much with the villagers. However, he was very prestigious because his actions and words were very convincing.

It was because of this that the Lu family believed Madam Liang when they said that Tang Wenqian didn’t deny Mrs. Tang’s words.

They were very clear that Tang Wenqian did not even have the time to wait for the results to be released before coming back just to confirm if that person was Yu. Now, it was confirmed.

Lord Xiang didn’t even ask a single question and directly denied it, which made them even more certain.

This time, the Lu family knelt on the ground and refused to get up.

The old lady fell to the ground and cried bitterly. She choked on her sobs and could not speak properly. “Lord, I beg you. Tell us what happened to Yu. Why was she exiled? What happened to her? Where is she now? Is she never coming back?”

Xiang Weinan was speechless.

It was a headache. The problem was that this was Lu Shuyu’s family. Before she left, she asked him to take care of them.

If it was someone else, it was not impossible to get someone to drag him out.

The other members of the Lu family also begged him to tell them, but Xiang Weinan refused to admit it no matter what. He firmly told them that Lu Shuyu was there to look for someone.

However, it was useless. The more he insisted, the more certain the Lu family was.

After a long stalemate, the old lady suddenly stopped crying.

She raised her head and wiped her face. Her voice trembled as she said, “Since the Lord is unwilling to say, I won’t make things difficult for you. Then let’s go find them ourselves. We’ll go to the prefecture and find out who was exiled two days ago. We can catch up with them in a mule carriage. They are all walking. We can catch up with them in two days and see if that person is Yu. If it is, we will follow them to the southwest. If not, we will come back.”
