It would look kinda bad, though. Blake hiding her ears, her not giving an actual record of her former training or her past ("I lived in a village outside the kingdom, that's it"), her being on the team that keeps finding and fighting the White Fang, her being on the mission against the White Fang that failed...

He could easily just go "Okay, so what village are you from, then, Ms. Belladonna?"

"(insert name of village here)."

And then Ironwood sends people to that village with photos of Blake, going around asking if anyone knows her, and when those people come back with the answer that no one in that village knows her, then it looks even worse.
