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

They had just gotten off the boat and Li Mofu had not yet recovered from his shock in the teahouse when Eunuch Li and his two followers returned with the carriage team.

Li Mofu looked like a frost-bitten eggplant, wrinkled and miserable. He got into the carriage and continued on his way to the capital.

After walking for a few days, Li Mofu couldn't help but sigh that the journey back was incredibly smooth. There was no interference from people, no interference from the weather, and every day's journey was within the plan.

A month passed like this, and they arrived at the outskirts of the capital.

"Mr. Li." Mo Yi suddenly called out.

Li Mofu took off the hat covering his face, squinted his eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Get up quickly, I have something to tell you." Mo Yi grabbed Li Mofu's arm and pulled him to the window.

"Ah? What's the matter?" Li Mofu asked confusedly while leaning against the window.

"Do you see that mountain? It's just to the north of the capital, very close to the imperial palace. Shang Jiu has already headed there with his horses." Mo Yi said, pointing to a place.

Li Mofu stared at that place for several times, but the carriage quickly entered the city gate and disappeared from sight.

"What's wrong with that mountain? What are you going to do?" Li Mofu asked in confusion.

Mo Yi first lowered the curtain, then explained, "The horse is for your escape route. You're probably the only one among us who can escape easily. Once you escape, run to that mountain, ride your horse, and leave the capital quickly."

"Ah, should I run alone?" Li Mofu asked with a frown.

Mo Yi patted his shoulder and said, "So this is your way out. It would be great if you could take your wife with you, but the palace is not a place you can just enter and leave as you please."

"If you can't hold on any longer and feel like leaving the capital, run to the mountains. There's the horse you often ride in the mountains. Call its name and it will come pick you up."

"Then I'll go find Shang Jiu and ask him to find someone to save you?" Li Mofu asked.

Mo Yi paused and shook his head. "Shang Jiu won't stay on the mountain forever. He will be responsible for transmitting intelligence. If Madam and you are really in danger, he will immediately head to the northwest."

"...What about you? Zhao Xu should be fine. If you follow us into the palace, you may not be able to get out." Li Mofu frowned and said.

Mo Yi just smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if I die. I must follow you and my wife until the last moment."

"..." Li Mofu was stunned for a moment, then lifted the curtain, "Why don't you get off the car now? There's no point in following us."

Mo Yi lowered the curtain. "Your Majesty won't execute us immediately. At most, he'll put us in jail. Madam and the prince won't be imprisoned, but Master Li, you're different. You'll most likely be imprisoned like the rest of us."

"You will most likely be tortured then. If you can't bear it, run away immediately. Don't worry about us and don't feel any guilt."

"If you have the ability, go find where the Madam is being held captive, escape, and tell Shang Jiu. If not, then just run."

Li Mofu was stunned for a moment, "Then why did I come to the capital?! Why not stay in Jiangnan forever!"

A yellow light seemed to flash in Mo Yi's eyes for a moment, and then he said meaningfully, "Originally, you really shouldn't have returned to the capital, but now there is a reason for you to return."

Li Mofu looked at Mo Yi with an indescribable expression. He stared at him, his lips moving as he asked, "What do you mean?"

"You are going to burn down the emperor's alchemy hall!" The yellow light flashed in Mo Yi's eyes again, and this time Li Mofu saw it very clearly.

"...Mo Yi?" Li Mofu paused in surprise, then reached out and patted Mo Yi's shoulder.

Mo Yi seemed to be awakened by a slap. The yellow light in his eyes dissipated, but his expression did not change. He just looked towards the window again and reached out to lift a corner. "Master Li, that mountain is where the horses are. It's very obvious. You must remember it."

Li Mofu gave Mo Yi a complicated look, "...Yeah, I remember that."

"Just remember, you should focus on your own safety and don't act on impulse." Mo Yi reminded again.
