"...This time it is really thanks to Li Mofu, otherwise I would be on my way to the capital now." Wang Ruiyan said with some fear.
Li Mofu raised his head with a little pride, "Well, yeah, my decision at that time was correct."
"This is just this time. Don't do it like this next time, otherwise no matter how many lives you have, they won't be enough." Zuo Zheng patted Li Mofu's shoulder and said.
Li Mofu licked his lips and smiled helplessly, "Since the emperor failed to bring Wang Ruiyan back this time, I won't be able to do anything next time."
Now everyone was silent again. Wang Ruiyan pursed her lips worriedly, then exchanged a glance with Li Mofu. Li Mofu just smiled uncomfortably.
"The eunuch has probably gone back. There was a team of thirty people waiting outside the city. I heard from passers-by waiting to enter the city that those people looked like escort leaders." Zuo Zheng took a few sips of tea, cleared his throat and said.
Li Mofu didn't believe it. "Who knows if he was the real escort leader or a fake one? Thirty people is a big group. Fortunately, the city gate was closed in time, otherwise he might have been beaten to death."
"You should be thankful that there were so many people around at that time, otherwise that eunuch would have stabbed you." Zhao Xu said.
Li Mofu propped up his chin and said with a flat face, "There's nothing I can do. Money makes the world go round. I'm not stupid. I'm really going to rush forward alone."
"But all the hatred is on you. Isn't that the case with that eunuch?" Zhao Xu looked at him and said.
Li Mofu closed his eyes after hearing this, feeling sad for a moment. "Stop talking. People like that can easily become perverted. You actually let him go! What if I fall into his hands in the future? He'll cut off my brother!"
“…” The others were speechless.
"Wow, wow, wow, what should I do? If I had known you guys were so unreliable, I should have slashed his neck myself!" Li Mofu felt more and more annoyed as he spoke, and said with deep regret.
Zuo Zheng coughed and poured him some tea, then changed the subject, saying, "Come on, come on, what are you talking about? It really is. And the situation isn't that serious. There won't be any storm in Jiangnan for a while."
"Is there any new news from the border?" Wang Ruiyan felt a little relieved after being interrupted by them.
Zhao Xu shook his head. "There's not a single bit of news. I still don't know what's happened to Jingxin."
"...Ahem," Zuo Zheng coughed again, observing Li Mofu's expression while bumping Zhao Xu's legs under the table. "No news now is good news."
Li Mofu glanced at them and felt like punching them. He really couldn't stand their attitude of "taking care of their brother's woman".
"That's right..." Zhao Xu said, touching his nose.
Li Mo bent under the table and kicked the calf of Zuo Zheng, who was sitting next to him. Zuo Zheng muttered in confusion, "You kicked the wrong person. Zhao Xu's leg is on the opposite side."
“…” Zhao Xu.
“…” Li Mofu.
"Actually, I'm still a little worried about my parents. They are still staying in Beijing, and I'm afraid..." Wang Ruiyan didn't know what she was thinking about, and became worried again.
"Minister Wang..." Zuo Zheng opened his mouth and was about to say a few words of comfort, but then he changed his mind and thought that what Wang Ruiyan was worried about was very likely to happen, so he shut up again.
Li Mofu understood Wang Ruiyan's concerns very well. To be honest, he felt that it was inevitable, especially after the failure of this operation.
"It's useless to worry about this and that. You've stayed in the house for too long and your thoughts have become rigid. Starting tomorrow, you should exercise well and try to run a few more steps when you escape!" Li Mofu picked up the teacup and touched it with Wang Ruiyan's teacup, then drank it.
"...That's right." Wang Ruiyan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
The next afternoon, Li Mofu was jogging in his usual horse training area, and Wang Ruiyan had joined him. The two "herbs" ran around the area three or four times, determined to become as quick-moving as ginseng!
After that, Wang Ruiyan often came to run with Li Mofu, and when she was alone in the house, she would also do some sit-ups, plank support and the like. Although I don’t know how well her endurance was trained, she had visibly lost some weight after a month.
