Yuan Shanchuan spat out the tea he had just sipped.
Shu Yu dodged quickly, and the tea did not get her. Unfortunately, Daniu was hit by it. His beard was covered in water droplets.
He closed his eyes and quickly wiped his beard with his sleeve to prevent himself from wiping it.
Yuan Shanchuan looked at Shu Yu in shock. “H-How did you know?” Daniu was confused. “Evidence? What evidence?”

You might not know this, but the people outside are going crazy looking for you. Not only are they looking for you, but the officers and soldiers of the county office are also looking for you. Moreover…”
She paused, looked at Yuan Shanchuan, and said word by word, “Lord Xiang from the government has found out that the former county magistrate secretly mixed an important piece of evidence with the goods and asked you to transport it out of the city. Now that the evidence is gone, the two people who transported the goods were caught. They confessed that you took the evidence. And you just happened to be missing for so many days, so now the Yuan family, including my fourth aunt, have been arrested by the government and locked up in the Office.”
“What?” Yuan Shanchuan suddenly stood up. He got up too quickly, and his head felt dizzy, almost falling forward.
Daniu was so shocked by this news that he forgot to react and did not notice Yuan Shanchuan.
Fortunately, Shu Yu was quick to help him up and let him sit down again.
However, Yuan Shanchuan could not be bothered to sit still. He grabbed Shu Yu’s arm and asked anxiously, “You mean the government suspected 1 colluded with the former county magistrate, so they arrested my family?” Daniu also asked, “Yu, did Lord Xiang tell you all this?”
Shu Yu nodded. “Lord Xiang told me the results will depend on when we find Fourth Uncle. So, Fourth Uncle, if you don’t show up or something happens to you here, the government won’t always look for you. In the end, the Yuan family will be exiled.”
“No.” Yuan Shanchuan quickly shook his head. ‘1 1 have to go out. I have to explain the situation to the authorities. I’m innocent in this matter.”
“We believe you are innocent, so you can take this opportunity to tell us what happened. Let’s discuss what we should do.”
Yuan Shanchuan was absent-minded for a moment. He rubbed his forehead and slowly calmed down.
Then, he extracted some information from Shu Yu’s words. He suddenly raised his head. “You… Do you know Lord Xiang?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yes, I do.”
Yuan Shanchuan was stunned for a moment before he understood.
For Yu to know such a confidential matter might not be simple. Perhaps the government was willing to send people to continue looking for him because of her.
Yuan Shanchuan took a deep breath and nodded. “Alright, I’ll tell you.”
Shu Yu also dragged a stool over. As the auction outside became more and more intense, Yuan Shanchuan began to talk about what happened a month before.
“A month ago, I followed a friend to deliver goods to a wealthy family in the county. This was originally a few days of work. I planned to return home when it was done. I received the salary and wanted to buy some food to add to my family’s meals. Yet I did not expect to meet a bodyguard I knew before.
“That bodyguard said that he had a batch of goods to be sent to the prefecture and was short of manpower. The salary was much more than I had expected, and he asked me if I wanted to go..”
