Wiping away tears of bitterness, they finally realized that getting Young Lord Mu’s heart to soften was harder than the sun rising from the west.
That night, hundreds of people spent it in cultivation. Mu Qingge also did not return to Mu Mansion, staying in the valley instead. After all, she detested the undercurrents of Luodu, and staying here to train soldiers lifted her spirits.
The next day, before dawn.
The bugle echoed throughout the valley, rousing the hundreds who were exhausted like dead dogs yesterday.
Although they had spent a night in cultivation, due to differing talents, each person’s recovery was also different. Seeing so many people looking weary, Mu Qingge grinned, showing her pearly teeth: "Training starts. Let’s warm up first with three laps around the mountain."
Awooo—!
Whimpering, Young Lord Mu is inhuman, a devil!
With inner grievances, the 503 people began their grueling day. However, this ti, Mu Qingge also ran with them and even ran at the front.
Looking at the relaxed, slender figure ahead, the soldiers felt wronged to the point of tears.
Wasn’t it said that Young Lord Mu can’t cultivate? Why is her stamina better than theirs?
But soon, soone noticed a difference in Mu Qingge’s steps, as if each step was precisely calculated, expending no excess energy.
After noticing this, many people began to observe and imitate her, gradually forgetting their fatigue and running more effortlessly.
Running at the forefront, Mu Qingge sensed the change behind her and couldn’t help but curl up her lips.
Training was happening every day, and the soldiers were improving every day.
In a flash, half a month passed. Mu Qingge hadn’t left the valley even once and knew nothing about the happenings in Luodu.
On this day, Mu Qingge decided to return to Luodu once. Because so personal equipnt she designed needed to be crafted there.
You He and Hua Yue were left behind to continue training, and Mu Qingge rode back to Luodu alone.
...
After returning to Mu Mansion, Mu Qingge learned from the steward that during her absence, Princess Changle had co looking for her multiple tis, but left disappointed.
The last ti, Princess Changle asked the steward to convey that she would accompany the Empress Dowager in prayer and would be away for about a month. She would look for her again upon her return.
Mu Qingge didn’t pay much attention to this.
At present, all her thoughts were focused on creating her super soldiers.
"Young Lord, You He and Hua Yue didn’t co back with you. Should I send a few more maidservants to serve you in Chi Yun Garden?" the steward who accompanied Mu Qingge to the entrance of Chi Yun Garden asked.
Mu Qingge directly refused: "I’ve co back this ti to handle so matters, and I’ll leave in a few days. There’s no need to trouble them."
"Young Lord is leaving so soon?" The steward hesitated.
Mu Qingge detected the hesitation in his words and turned to him, saying, "Speak your mind."
The steward lowered his gaze and said, "During the ti you were away, Miss Bai often told the Old Lord and the First Miss that Young Lord is not young anymore, should settle down, not play around so recklessly, and neglect returning ho. She even suggested having soone sent to bring you back."
Mu Qingge slightly raised her eyebrow: "She doesn’t know where I’ve gone?" Her trip to the military camp wasn’t much of a secret in Mu Mansion. Yet, she never expected Bai Xiyue was unaware.
The old steward smiled slightly: "Ever since that incident, people’s impression of Miss Bai in the household is just... She did have Lv Zhi go out and inquire more, but it seems everyone thinks she’s ddling too much, so they all tacitly chose to conceal it."
