Just as the Lu family was thinking of ways to hide the two thousand taels of silver, Shu Yu, who was outside the city, had already pulled the reins of her horse and stopped.
There was a carriage parked in front of them, and Shu Yu’s familiar figure stood outside the carriage.
Seeing her, Meng Yunzheng walked up and nodded at her. He didn’t say anything and looked at the two female escorts behind her.
Shu Yu got off her horse and said to the two female escorts, “Thank you for sending me here. Go back and tell your lord that I thank him.”
“Take care, Lady Lu.” The two of them glanced at Meng Yunzheng, turned their horses around, and left. They also pulled Shu Yu’s horse away.
They didn’t return to Jiangyuan County to avoid being seen by the Lu family and exposing themselves.
After they had gone far away, Zhao Xi came out of the carriage and said to her with a smile, “Lady Lu, get in the carriage.”
Shu Yu smiled and nimbly got on the shaft of the carriage.
Zhao Xi wore a curtain hat and sat outside to drive the car. He let the two of them in to talk.
The carriage galloped toward the Dongan Province. Meng Yunzheng handed her a water bag. “Drink some water.”
Shu Yu drank some water and rested for a moment before looking at the scenery outside.
She had walked this road before. When she came to Jiangyuan County, she didn’t seem to care. Now, she had more thoughts in her heart and felt that this path was exceptionally fast.
She retracted her gaze and leaned against the car wall.
Meng Yunzheng knew she was in a bad mood, so he said nothing. He waited until she was more or less adjusted before saying, “The carriage will arrive at Dongan Province in the evening. Someone will pick you up outside the city. Or if you have somewhere you want to go, we can speed up.”
The last time Shu Yu arrived at Jiangyuan County from Dongan Province, she had been riding at top speed for an entire day.
This time, Meng Yunzheng’s carriage was of good performance and could go faster.
If they had set off a day earlier, it would have been easier to travel. However, Shu Yu was unwilling. She did not want to leave until the last moment.
“No need.” Shu Yu shook her head. “The only place I’m familiar with in the Dongan Province is the Shu family and the Dongqing Temple. The Shu family had fallen, and my master was not around. There was no need to go directly to the government office.”
Meng Yunzheng nodded. “Alright, after we send you there, Lord Jing’s people will come to pick you up. “When you arrive at the office, the Second and Third Princes will interrogate you about where you have been these days. Don’t be afraid, Lord Jing will be at your side to control the situation.”
Shu Yu listened seriously.
Meng Yunzheng explained in detail, “Your travel pass and household registration were given to you by the Master temple of Dongqing Temple. Naturally, you can’t tell anyone about this. Therefore, if they asked you, you would say that you didn’t have a residence permit and couldn’t go too far. You were lucky enough to escape when the Shu family wanted to kill you. You were afraid and only escaped from the city. However, you were unfamiliar with the place and did not dare to go too far. You only found a village outside the city to ask for help.”
“There was only the steward and his wife in that manor. The couple had never had any children. The two of them guarded the manor that the master had almost forgotten all year round. They liked you very much when they saw you and took you in, treating you like a daughter. You’ve been living in the manor for the past few months. Because you were afraid that the Shu family wouldn’t let you off, you didn’t even leave the manor.”
“Later, when you heard that something happened to the Shu family and that the Shu family was arrested, you were relieved. After walking outside for two days, you were discovered and captured by Lord Jing’s men.”
Shu Yu nodded as she listened. When she heard this, she raised her head. “That couple in the manor…”
