Days passed, and he still had not encountered Pei Guanjing again.
When he finally heard news of Pei Guanjing, it was from the mouths of the injured soldiers. It turned out that Pei Guanjing had gone to town to sell medicine.
Pei Guanjing had been gone for several days. Ye Chen wanted to inquire about him but didn’t know whom to ask. It was during a casual chat among the talkative wounded soldiers that he overheard the information while sitting nearby.
As a disciple, Ye Chen felt he understood his master’s situation even less than others did, which left him feeling quite disheartened. A wave of bitterness surged within him, as if something heavy was sinking down, causing a faint ache in his heart.
Thus, the awkwardness between Ye Chen and Pei Guanjing continued for more than half a month, with neither of them saying a word. Ye Chen couldn’t even catch a glimpse of Pei Guanjing.
Recently, Muer’s belly had begun to show; it was no longer subtle but increasingly prominent.
A once slender young man now sported a slightly rounded belly. This image was not as comical as Ye Chen had imagined; on the contrary, the tenderness reflected in Muer’s expression made his heart inexplicably tremble.
One day, Ye Chen entered as usual, carrying prenatal medicine, and said, “Time for your medicine. Hey, what are you doing?”
He noticed that Muer seemed to be hiding something under the blanket and blurted out his question. Seeing that Ye Chen had already noticed, Muer no longer concealed it and pulled out the half-stitched Inner Garment.
“This is an Inner Garment I’m embroidering for the general. What do you think?” Muer gently shook the garment in front of Ye Chen.
Ye Chen paused for a moment, pretending to assess it seriously before replying, “Hmm… not bad.”
Upon hearing this, Muer’s previously tense nerves relaxed slightly. He tenderly caressed the Inner Garment, his fingertips still bearing several bloodstains, indicating that Muer was indeed not skilled in needlework.
Looking at Muer's current affectionate demeanor, Ye Chen felt a surge of complex emotions, making him increasingly uneasy. After he regained his memories, would this version of Muer still be around?
Now, the blood clots in Muer's mind were diminishing, and more memories were surfacing. A few days ago, He Mu Ming had found an object from somewhere and tried to win Muer's favor, only to be immediately recognized by Muer as an old item from Studio of Antiquities.
At that moment, He Mu Ming's expression turned serious. He stared intently at Muer, his voice carrying a hint of chill as he asked, "You... you remember everything?"
Muer toyed with the object in hand, looking puzzled as she replied, "What am I supposed to remember?"
Hearing this, and realizing that Muer had not fully regained her memories yet, He Mu Ming finally relaxed and smiled.
A few nights later, the Wolf Tribe launched a sudden attack, catching everyone off guard. It seemed that the Wolf Clan Leader had learned that his younger brother was being held by He Mu Ming and sent a group of Centaurs to infiltrate the Military Camp under the cover of night in an attempt to secretly take Muer away.
According to the soldiers on patrol last night, those Wolf Clan members were exceptionally skilled; initially, they had not noticed their presence until the group was close to General He's Main Tent.
The group attempted to abduct young master Mu, but young master Mu's loud screams alerted the Patrol Team, leading to their discovery and capture.
Coincidentally, General He had gone into the city last night to discuss matters with the city lord and was not present at the Military Camp. The Wolf Clan members had clearly timed their attack perfectly.
The next day, upon returning, He Mu Ming immediately ordered the execution of those Wolf Tribe scouts who had attacked the Military Camp.
young master Mu was frightened; this time, General He's attempts to comfort her seemed ineffective. Muer resisted everyone's approach except for Ye Chen, who delivered her medicine daily.
Due to the recent frequent attacks from the Wolf Tribe, He Mu Ming had no choice but to return to the city that day for military discussions. He only had time to instruct them to take good care of Muer before he left.
Ye Chen was also wondering if Muer had regained her memory. But if Muer truly remembered everything, how could she still take the prenatal medicine every day, willingly carrying the child of her enemy?
Ye Chen couldn't make sense of it. He handed the medicine to Muer and said, "Young Master Mu, it's time to take your medicine."
Unlike before, Muer slowly lifted her gaze, her eyes landing on Ye Chen, pausing for a long time. It was so long that Ye Chen thought she had fallen asleep. When he looked up at her, he realized she had been staring intently at him.
"Young Master Mu?" Ye Chen asked with a puzzled expression, "What’s wrong?"
"You are Kun Ze," Muer said calmly, her tone not a question but a definitive statement.
Ye Chen was momentarily stunned, then awkwardly chuckled and replied, "Young Master Mu, what are you talking about? I'm Zhong Yong. You can't just tease me like those rascals in the Military Camp just because I look good; that's not acceptable!"
"Enough with the act." Muer slowly rose, her movements graceful yet carrying an undeniable resolve. After stepping down from the bed, she walked directly to a nearby high stool and sat down steadily, coldly gazing at Ye Chen with eyes as sharp as ice blades.
"I knew who you were the first time I saw you. Now tell me, what is a Kun Ze doing in the Military Camp? Don't you know that this is a restricted area where Female Dependents and Kun Ze are forbidden? Or do you have some ulterior motive?"
Ye Chen stood there dumbfounded, his mind blank.
