Li Mofu was stunned for a moment, then he moved closer to Lu Mingyun and asked, "Could it be that you have a secret guard with you? Do you want your secret guard to deliver a letter to you?"
"Where do you know all this messed up stuff? I don't have it with me. I want to write a letter to my family..." Lu Mingyun paused and frowned.
After a while, Li Mofu thought he was going to say something, but Lu Mingyun said, "No, you can't write a letter."
"...What the hell, how can we meet up with Guozi and the others if you don't write a letter? The world is so vast." Li Mofu said.
This isn't modern times, where a phone call and a location can do the job. Here, once you're apart, it's hard to say when you'll see each other again.
"We won't meet up. I'll write a letter home saying I'm safe, and then we'll go directly to Su County." Lu Mingyun said again.
Li Mofu was puzzled, "Why?"
"...No reason, you'd better not know. It's not good for you. Just follow me." Lu Mingyun said as he started eating.
Li Mofu stopped talking when he saw him eating. He had been either rushing on the road or running away before and had no time to think. In fact, now he can understand what Lu Mingyun is worried about.
This time, they separated from the convoy in order to delay their arrival in Su County. However, just because those people didn't dare to kill Lu Mingyun didn't mean they didn't dare to kill the others in the convoy...
Li Mofu pursed his lips. Should he be thankful that he still had the title of "Lu Mingyun's male wife"?
But when he thought of Guozi, who was only ten years old, and the hard-working Nanny Liang, Li Mofu's heart sank.
In this era, death was very common, especially since they were just domestic slaves.
Li Mofu took a deep breath and frowned, a trace of melancholy rising in his heart. But then he thought about it and had another question.
Did those people really not kill him because he was Lu Mingyun's male wife? Or were they ordered not to kill him?
If so, did the mastermind behind the orders they made to do this know that he held Lu Mingyun's life in danger?
But few people knew about this matter. Apart from Marquis Wu'an, Lin, Lu Mingyun's grandmother, and Lu Mingyun's confidants, who else knew about it?
Did someone leak it?
Or is the Marquis' Mansion involved in this matter?
The more Li Mofu thought about it, the more panicked he became. "Tell me, why did those people separate us from the others? What was their purpose in stalling for time?"
"...I'm not sure." Lu Mingyun said.
"Aren't you taking up the position of a county magistrate this time? Isn't this a minor official of the eighth rank?" Li Mofu wondered.
Lu Mingyun rolled his eyes, "He's also an official."
Li Mofu pursed his lips, "I know he's an official, but I don't think it's necessary to send so many people to do this in such a long and arduous way, right?"
Lu Mingyun didn't say anything else.
After having dinner and resting for a while, the two of them ordered hot water to take a bath, and then slept comfortably until the next morning. Then they bought some necessary things and important tools and carriages.
Because of this carriage, a piece of Li Mofu's gold leaf was cut off, and he had some extra change in his pocket.
After getting a carriage and asking for directions, they just had to follow the official road. Li Mofu lay in the carriage, hugging the quilt and pillow he bought from the grocery store, while Lu Mingyun drove the horse.
"Be careful, don't drive the car into the ditch." Li Mofu said.
Lu Mingyun pretended not to hear. The wind outside was cold and dry, and it was not pleasant when it blew on his face, even though he was wearing a hat.
He snorted in dissatisfaction in the cold wind, thinking, not only does Li Mofu not care about him, but he actually doesn't trust him!
In reality, Li Mofu was just being mean and wanted to say a few words. After all, it was just the two of them in this cold and desolate place, and if he didn't talk, he'd be suffocating. As the saying goes, "One day without being mean feels like three years."
When the horses get tired, they have to stop to eat grass and drink water, and the two also have to deal with physiological problems, such as urinating and defecating.
Of course they will eat by themselves when they are hungry, and they can also eat in the car.
After walking for seven days, they were getting closer and closer to Su County. However, their food supplies were gone, so Lu Mingyun had no choice but to take Li Mofu to a nearby town.
