Seeing this, Qiuxiang quickly patted Wang Ruiyan's chest and said, "Then at least listen to the doctor and rest for two days. After two days, the road will be dry, and it will be easier for us to travel."
"......" Wang Ruiyan touched her belly, her pale face showing reluctance, and finally nodded, "Go and tell Deputy General Meng..."
"Yes."
Finally, they rested in an inn in Shanya Town. However, Lieutenant General Meng did not follow Wang Ruiyan's advice to rest for only two days. Instead, he decided to wait until the doctor said there was no problem before leaving.
The reason for doing this is very simple. If your body cannot withstand such a tiring journey, you will suffer. If two lives are lost, it will be the responsibility of Lieutenant General Meng. The Second Prince will blame him when he knows about it, and the Lu family will also hate him when they know about it.
In this way they stayed in the inn for four days. During these four days, Li Mofu would visit Wang Ruiyan every day, and then go to the town to buy some delicious food to comfort and persuade her, otherwise she would always be trapped in the internal friction of everyone that she was dragging down.
In addition, Li Mofu also insisted on exercising for half an hour every day. The rest was eating and sleeping to conserve his energy for emergencies.
On the fifth day in Shanya Town, Wang Ruiyan finally received the doctor's approval, and the group set out on their journey again. After another five days of walking, they arrived in Wu County.
But originally, Lieutenant General Meng could send them to Jiangnan, but now he can only send them to Wuxian to take a boat.
However, Vice Admiral Meng personally found a boat and boatman for them. Since they were all Second Prince's men, he trusted them very much. He finally sent them aboard and said, "The Jiangnan area is very safe for you, but there may be people chasing you in other towns along the way. So if you can avoid docking on the water, do so. If you really have to dock, be very careful."
After getting on the boat, Li Mofu looked back at Deputy General Meng and other guards who stayed on the shore, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It really depended on them from now on.
When they were on the road before, he had asked Wang Ruiyan why she didn't hire a team of bodyguards to escort them in the capital.
Wang Ruiyan asked, "Who among the imperial guards in the capital would dare to agree to escort them?" "Would they still want to do business in the capital?" As for the escorts from other places, their credibility was too low. If one of them was one of the new emperor's men, it would only be a matter of time before they turned against him.
After all, the person they were escaping this time was not some ordinary dignitary, but the new emperor sitting at the top.
"Young master, we can't see the shore clearly. The wind is strong on the water. Let's go back to the house." Guozi said as he stood beside Li Mofu.
"Yes, madam, let's go back too. You can't be exposed to the wind." Qiuxiang also said.
Li Mofu then remembered that Wang Ruiyan was also standing on the deck, so he said, "Forget it, forget it, let's go back. If we take the faster sea route, we'll reach Jiangnan in seven days. We can just endure it ourselves."
Wang Ruiyan frowned and sighed, "Blame me, if it weren't for me..."
"Oh, it's not a big deal. Let's go. Taking good care of your health is more important than anything else." Li Mofu said nonchalantly.
"Yes, madam, let's go back to the house quickly. If you get sick again, it will delay your journey." Qiuxiang advised again.
Wang Ruiyan was quickly persuaded by Qiuxiang, so she hurriedly said goodbye to Li Mofu and returned to the house. She couldn't get sick again now, and they had to go directly to Jiangnan.
"Let's go too, young master." said Guozi.
Li Mofu took a deep breath, and the smell of the river water rushed into his nose. "Actually, Guozi, this is my first time riding a boat."
"Huh? Guozi is the same. I didn't expect it to be so shaky." Guozi said while holding the railing.
Li Mofu's mouth twitched, and he smiled bitterly, "I mean, I can't stand the shaking of this boat..."
"...Sir, you are not seasick, are you?!" Guozi said in shock.
Li Mofu closed his eyes and nodded, "That's why I don't want to go back to the house so soon. I'm afraid the house will be too stuffy and I'll feel even more dizzy."
