The next day.
After Mu Chenshuang woke up, she checked on Qi Ye's condition. He had suffered internal injuries, but the problem was not serious.
Qi Ye rubbed his shoulder and frowned, saying, "We've really met a formidable opponent."
Mu Chenshuang looked at Qi Ye and said, "He probably thinks you're not worthy of being his opponent."
An assassin wielding a black blade was utterly crushed.
Of course, it's highly likely that because Nanaya lost his memory and was only holding an ordinary sword, he didn't show his true strength when he sparred with his opponent.
Although Qiye was unwilling to accept it, he had no choice but to admit defeat.
He suddenly remembered something, lowered his eyes, and said, "He said something to me last night."
Mu Chenshuang looked at him suspiciously and asked, "What did you say?"
Qi Ye replied, "He said he would spare my life, and I haven't encountered anyone chasing me these past few days."
Mu Chenshuang was taken aback. In other words, the person who had been chasing Qi Ye was him.
Because he was by her side, he spared her life?
This is somewhat surprising.
"That's good news. At least the people chasing you are not a threat to either of us right now."
When that person appeared last night, her first thought was that he was Fu Junheng.
However, Fu Junheng was injured and his body had not fully recovered, so it was not advisable for him to use his internal energy. If he forced himself to use it, it would trigger the poison.
Judging from the man's condition yesterday, he injured Qiye without breaking a sweat. How could he have done so without expending his internal energy?
But why didn't he show up before, but suddenly appeared last night and said those things?
Thinking of this, Mu Chenshuang's eyes deepened.
Qi Ye asked, "So the person you want to capture is him?"
Mu Chenshuang sat up. "If we want to know who he is now, we definitely can't use force. Even if you and I combine our strength, we are no match for him."
Qi Ye sat cross-legged, one hand supporting his chin, and sighed, "It seems I'm still too weak."
With that, he suddenly straightened his back and said decisively, "Starting today, I will work hard to practice my skills."
Mu Chenshuang turned to look at him, "In that case, come to the study with me."
Qi Ye followed Mu Chenshuang to the study, where Mu Chenshuang gave him a martial arts manual.
According to the memories in his mind, the original owner's mother was a highly skilled woman from the martial arts world who left behind many martial arts manuals.
"What you need now is not to practice swordsmanship, but to improve your internal strength. After that, I will prescribe some auxiliary medicines for you, which will allow you to achieve twice the result with half the effort."
Judging from his fight yesterday, his internal strength was nowhere near that of the other person.
Qi Ye picked up the book in her hand and started flipping through it.
"Let's start with this one."
"You should rest well for the next few days and recover from your internal injuries before we talk about anything else."
"good."
When Mu Chenshuang returned to her room and sat down at her dressing table, she saw the hairpins on the table and remembered that he had taken the white jade frost flower hairpin. What did he mean by taking the hairpin?
Instantly.
The scene from last night involuntarily flashed through her mind; after he forcibly molested her, anger instantly welled up in her eyes.
Mu Chenshuang's clenched fist tightened, slamming it heavily onto the table.
Linglong brought in the medicine to help with the pregnancy. Hearing the commotion inside, she put down the tray and hurried over, asking with concern, "Miss, what's wrong?"
Mu Chenshuang lowered her eyes and looked away, calming her emotions. "It's nothing, just give me the medicine!"
As she spoke, she placed her hand on her lower abdomen; she would never give this child to him.
Linglong turned around, walked to the table, and brought over the medicine.
Mu Chenshuang took the medicine bowl, raised her hand and drank it all in one gulp. Linglong quickly handed her a candied date.
Mu Chenshuang held it in her mouth, and the bitterness gradually disappeared.
"By the way, Miss, why didn't you see the hairpin that General Shen gave you yesterday?"
Last night, the young lady wore that hairpin, and she was immediately captivated by it. Although it was simple, the elegant and graceful design was very appealing.
To be honest, although that hairpin wasn't as rich and ornate as the one Prince Junheng had given her, its unique carving technique was rare in the world, and its cool elegance was more suitable for the young lady.
Mu Chenshuang replied, "It was stolen last night."
Linglong was shocked. "It was stolen? What would a grown man do if he stole a hairpin?"
"Who knows?"
Linglong couldn't help but worry, "What should we do? What if General Shen asks about this?"
This was also what Mu Chenshuang was worried about; Shen Nanzhi must have put a lot of effort into that hairpin.
Therefore, she needs to find a way to get the hairpin back.
