Seven days later, they arrived in Su County.

As soon as they arrived in Su County, Lu Mingyun quickly met up with Mo Yi and the others. While Li Mofu was still confused about how they got in touch, Lu Mingyun had already left Li Mofu in the yard and took his men to the county government office.

"Sir, I'm so glad that you're okay!" Guozi ran over with a cup of hot tea and a smile on his face.

Li Mofu sat in the hall and looked around blankly. Although the courtyard was a bit old, it was spacious enough and had a unique flavor after being cleaned and tidied up.

"...When did you arrive?" Li Mofu was still wearing a plain thick coat, and looked a little out of place squeezed among the mahogany chairs.

"We arrived four days ago," said Guozi.

Li Mofu took a sip of hot tea, and after his stomach warmed up, he relaxed a little. "Tell me, what happened after I left?"

Speaking of this, Guozi's eyebrows drooped. "When I woke up, there was chaos outside. Several men in black were fighting with Mo Yi and two other guards. A servant went to help with a hoe and was injured."

"Later, the men in black retreated, and Mo Yi brought several people to look for the young master and the young master, but they only found the young master's quilt thrown on the roadside, but they couldn't find the young master anywhere."

"Then a servant was sent back to the Marquis' Mansion at full speed to report the incident, and the rest of the people went to the nearest town to wait for news."

"After arriving in the town, we waited for three days before receiving a letter from the Marquis' Mansion. The Marquis told us to continue on our way and to speed up to Su County."

"At that time, we knew that the young master and the young master must be fine. But we don't know why the marquis did not let us meet up with the young master and the young master, but asked us to go ahead."

Li Mofu's brows furrowed when he heard this. He and Lu Mingyun had slept in the forest for one night. The next day, they walked for a long time before finding a hunter. They stayed with the hunter for another night and arrived at Songhua Town on the third day.

At the time, Li Mofu knew that Lu Mingyun had written home to report his safety, but they were nowhere near the capital at the time, so even at the fastest rate, the letter would have taken two or three days to arrive. Yet, the Marquis' Mansion sent a letter on the third day after Guozi and the others arrived in town?

He also told them to keep moving forward, as if he already knew that Lu Mingyun was fine and that they would definitely continue to Su County.

It's really magical.

Could it be that the Marquis' Mansion is really related to the employer of those men in black?

Li Mofu touched his chin, then thought again and felt something was wrong.

The black-clad man's employer had a clear purpose: they didn't want Lu Mingyun to come to Su County as planned. Yet, the Marquis ordered Guozi and the other servants to hurry to Su County...

Could it be that the Marquis knew that these men in black would not kill Lu Mingyun, and based on Lu Mingyun's character, the Marquis knew that he would definitely discover the subtlety, and then save the time for meeting up and quickly head to Su County, so he let these servants set off quickly?

Hypotheses popped up in Li Mofu's mind.

It seems that the Marquis must know what Lu Mingyun encountered and why he encountered it. He may even know who the employer of the man in black is.

According to the various political novels and TV dramas that Li Mofu has read, it can be guessed that this incident must be related to the throne!

"What was the name of the town where you were waiting for the letter?" Li Mofu asked.

Guozi thought for a moment and said, "Yunzhen."

Li Mofu held his forehead with his hand. It seemed that he and Lu Mingyun had really gone in the wrong direction in the forest, but fortunately they met a kind family.

"Since we arrived in Su County, Mo Yi, Mo Zhu and two other guards have been waiting at the four city gates every day. Mo Yi just brought you here." Guozi said again.

Li Mofu let out a long "oh" and thought to himself, "So that's how it is." He really was dizzy from riding in the car. His mind was a mess every day, and he was in a daze and had no attention at all to what was happening around him.
