Transmigrating into a Man's Wife: I Share the Pain with the Male Protagonist

Li Mofu didn't expect Lu Mingyun to react so strongly. "...Then forget it. I also think it's inappropriate."

"This is not only inappropriate. If we really do this, how can we explain its origin to His Majesty, and how can we prevent His Majesty from thinking too much? In fact, His Majesty is not stupid. He will only suspect that we are related to the disappearance of the Ghost Immortal. At that time, His Majesty will most likely surround the Wu'an Marquis Mansion on the charge of deceiving the emperor." Lu Mingyun explained with a frown.

"By then, even if the Second Prince wanted to speak up for us, it would be useless. Everyone in the Marquis' Mansion would be in immediate trouble. We wouldn't even have a chance to escape."

"If we are truly captured, His Majesty will undoubtedly dispatch other generals to guard the borders for the sake of prestige. From what I understand, those generals are either too old and lacking in energy, or too young and inexperienced. If they were to be deployed to the borders, it's unclear when the unrest would be quelled."

Li Mofu was stunned for a while and nodded, "I understand..."

Seeing this, Lu Mingyun relaxed his frown and spoke softly, "The only thing we can be thankful for now is that the late emperor passed away so suddenly, and he hasn't yet informed His Majesty that you've given me the lifeline to save him... If something unexpected does happen along the way, don't worry about others. Run if you can. Just make sure you stay alive."

"......" Li Mofu was silent. Lu Mingyun's words undoubtedly meant that if it really didn't work out, he should give up on Wang Ruiyan, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Mofu?" Lu Mingyun reached out and touched Li Mofu's face.

Li Mofu turned his face away and said, "Then why don't I just go with the old Taoist priest?"

"......" Lu Mingyun stopped talking.

Li Mofu pursed his lips and took a deep breath. The atmosphere in the room became very heavy. If he could remain indifferent to the death of others, he would have followed the old Taoist priest long ago. He stayed because he couldn't ignore him.

"I'm just saying just in case." Lu Mingyun said.

"If that happens and everyone dies, what's the point of me escaping alone?" Li Mofu said.

Lu Mingyun frowned again after hearing this. He reached out and turned Li Mofu's face around. "You can still wait for me. I will definitely come to find you when I come back."

"What if you can't come back?" Li Mofu looked straight at Lu Mingyun and asked.

Lu Mingyun was stunned and opened his mouth but said nothing.

"What if none of you come back?" Li Mofu asked again, "What should I wait for then? And when should I wait?"

In such an era, this country has such a corrupt emperor. The people and things he cares about are gone, but he is still expected to survive.

Lu Mingyun couldn't answer, so he just bent down and hugged Li Mofu. Li Mofu didn't struggle, but leaned on Lu Mingyun's shoulder and blinked.

The two of them cuddled together for a while, and then Lu Mingyun said, "Do what you can. Don't do anything stupid. Wait for me to come back."

Li Mofu gritted his teeth and buried his face in Lu Mingyun's shoulder, then responded in a dull voice.

In mid-May, the new emperor appointed Marquis Wu'an as the General of the Northwest, the Second Prince as the General of the Northeast, Lu Mingyun as the Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army, and Lu Fengning as the Commander-in-Chief of the Right Army. The four of them went to the border to garrison together.

In front of all the court officials, Marquis Wu'an first requested that other people in the Marquis Wu'an Mansion be allowed to go to Jiangnan to reunite with his mother, but was rejected by the new emperor, who said that Marquis Wu'an's family would be safer in the capital.

Afterwards, the second prince came forward to persuade the new emperor, and told the court officials that he would stay for another month before leaving the capital. During this month, he would let his men send Wu'an Hou's relatives out of the capital.

As for how far it can be delivered, it depends on how far they can travel in this month. After a month, his men will head to the border.

Less than five days after receiving the order, Marquis Wu'an, Lu Mingyun and Lu Fengning had to leave the capital and head to the border. A group of soldiers were waiting for them outside the city.

The day of farewell didn't last as long as Li Mofu had imagined, after all, everyone had already gathered for dinner the night before. The Lu family father and son drank wine in front of the mansion gate and then mounted their horses. Marquis Wu'an gave many instructions, such as that he was sending Lin back to her parents' home, that her brother would take good care of her, that she only needed to take some gold, silver, and money for the journey, and that heavy items should be left alone, and that he should hurry and not waste time...
