Chapter 656: Chapter 656: Vindicating Shu Yu

Qi Chan was quite surprised, “I didn’t expect there to be such complications in the story.”

He looked towards Lord Cheng, who also seemed contemplative but only shook his head after a long pause, “So, it seems she’s the adopted daughter of the Shu family.”

The implication being, though she has no blood ties with the Shu family, after all, she had lived with them for many years. She couldn’t sever ties with the Shu family completely; the Shu family’s crime and exile, Shu Yu could not avoid.

Moreover, this kind of relationship would certainly have been investigated thoroughly by the officials who had originally tried the Shu family case.

However, it is precisely this relationship that might leave room for some maneuvering in the future.

He looked at the young lady standing before him, noticing she seemed in good spirits and even capable of venturing into the deep mountains to hunt tigers. Perhaps she could do great things in the future; she still had prospects.

“However, now that your family has come for you, it’s possible to make a change in the household registration.”

Changing her name and such to disassociate her from the Shu family was something the governor could still manage.

He gave an instruction to the guard behind him, who responded affirmatively, and thus the matter was settled.

Shu Yu’s eyes lit up, and she quickly gave her thanks.

Lord Cheng laughed heartily, “There’s no need to thank me. It was fortuitous that I came here today, just in time to see you all having fought the tiger. Come, tell me, how did you all manage to do it?”

“Yes.” Shu Yu, with her natural poise, unlike Ma Lu and others who were still somewhat tense and nervous, conversed effortlessly with Lord Cheng.

Moreover, when at home, she would sometimes tell stories to her younger siblings, so narrating the process of hunting the tiger came naturally to her. She told it so vividly and thrillingly that she immediately piqued the governor’s curiosity.

Everyone else listened with great interest, and even those like Ma Lu, who had lived through the experience, began to doubt whether they had truly been as… brave as Shu Yu described.

There were still many people at the Manor, all coming out to watch the excitement.

The villagers who had followed were all kept outside, forbidden to enter. Although the distance made it difficult to hear clearly, Shu Yu’s voice was distinct; they still heard some of it, feeling a mix of surprise and envy.

Shu Feng and his two brothers from the fifth team were also at the entrance of the Manor. Shu Feng had watched with his own eyes as Madam Hou and the Sixth Young Lady entered the Manor and even stood in the middle of the main hall.

He frowned slightly, feeling a strange sensation in his heart.

But then he thought about his good relationship with Shu Yu and figured she might have let them in, which didn’t seem odd anymore.

The tricky part now was that Shu Yu had actually gone into the mountains and fought a tiger. Even if she hadn’t been the one to kill it, she had participated. And she was lucky enough to have encountered Lord Cheng just in time.

That man was deeply calculating, always eager to perform in front of Lord Cheng. Having caught Lord Cheng’s eye, the officers at the Manor would undoubtedly take more care of her. Trying to cause her troubles in the future might not be easy.

Shu Feng and Shu Quan stood frowning outside the crowd, while Shu Yu inside had finished recounting the events that had occurred after entering the mountains.

Lord Cheng listened intently, finding this young lady truly remarkable; she could venture into the mountains to fight a tiger and tell stories that made one feel as though they were there, truly worthy of being the one who saved Mister Qi.

Lord Cheng clapped his hands vigorously, laughing loudly, “Good, very good, you all did well.”

His gaze circled around Ma Lu and the others, and he asked, “In the rules of hunting, catching game like tigers and big bears comes with a reward to encourage everyone to strive and succeed.”
