His entire family perished in battle; he rose from the ashes to conquer the world.

Seeing her nod, Mu Yuan couldn't help but feel a little pleased. This was clearly an affirmation of his attitude!

The eldest sister-in-law, Qin Hongxiu, comes from a military family and has a resolute character. To gain her approval, one cannot simply use sweet words or gold and silver jewelry; one must take concrete actions.

These past two days in the military camp, Qin Hongxiu has been watching Mu Yuan's every move, eating and training with the soldiers.

For the sake of the Mu family and the Western Army, Mu Yuan did not hesitate to take the "Marrow-Sucking Powder". Now, he is even risking his life to soak his weak body in the "Heart-Changing and Bone-Corroding Soup" in order to become stronger.

This kind of courage and sense of responsibility is unmatched by ordinary people.

Seeing Mu Yuan still trying to talk to his sister-in-law despite his predicament, Su Wanqing was both amused and exasperated. However, as a doctor, she still solemnly warned him:

"Stop being so sarcastic. Your most important thing right now is to rest and recuperate. You've only managed two days; the next forty-seven days will be tough for you!"

Su Wanqing's seemingly warning words were actually full of concern and worry.

Faced with his sister-in-law Su Wanqing's warning, Mu Yuan neither nodded nor replied, but lay quietly on the bed with his eyes wide open.

"I'm talking to you, are you even listening?" Su Wanqing frowned slightly, somewhat annoyed.

"Didn't you say I couldn't talk?" Mu Yuan said helplessly.

Upon hearing this, Su Wanqing was taken aback, while Qin Hongxiu and Fang Yuyan, who were standing next to her, chuckled at Mu Yuan's witty remarks.

The two women were already stunningly beautiful, and now their smiles were even more captivating, making it impossible to look away.

Su Wanqing, who had been tricked, blushed and pouted, which gave her a unique charm.

Seeing this scene, Mu Yuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart. His three sisters-in-law were already stunningly beautiful, and now they had different expressions, but each had her own merits and they were equally beautiful!

Because Mu Yuan made a clever move, the originally tense and serious atmosphere turned into a relaxed and pleasant one.

.......

The next day.

Mu Yuan changed into a set of light armor and stepped out of the tent.

After soaking in the "Heart-Changing and Bone-Corroding Soup" for two consecutive days, his physical condition changed significantly. He was no longer as weak and frail as before, easily knocked down by a gust of wind.

"General!"

On the training ground, whether they were captains or soldiers patrolling the camp, they all had genuine respect for Mu Yuan.

Mu Yuan is of noble status and is now the only male member of the Western Prince's Mansion. He doesn't need to suffer in the military camp. However, he has been eating and training with the soldiers for the past two days. Just by taking the lead, he has won the respect of the Western Army.

The sun slowly rose.

After breakfast, the soldiers gathered on the drill ground, waiting for He Muyuan to give orders so they could train together.

However, at that moment...

"Report!!"

A soldier from the Western Army rushed towards Mu Yuan.

"What's the matter that you're so panicked?"

Beside Mu Yuan, Yang Dayan stared with his leopard-like eyes at the soldier who came to report.

"No rush, speak slowly." Compared to Yang Daye, who is outspoken and wears his emotions on his sleeve, Mu Yuan is very calm and composed.

"Reporting to the commander, Prince Ning and his men have arrived outside the camp!" the soldier replied, swallowing hard.

Prince Ning?

Didn't he go back to the capital?

Mu Yuan frowned.

"That damned Prince Ning dares to come back!"

Upon hearing that it was Prince Ning who had arrived, Yang Daye's eyes were filled with fierce anger. His right hand gripped the hilt of the sword hanging at his waist tightly, as if he was about to draw his sword and settle accounts with Prince Ning at any moment.

The other soldiers were also filled with righteous indignation.

"Prince Ning originally returned to the capital, but now he has turned back. It's obvious he has ill intentions. We must be careful!" Qin Hongxiu whispered to Mu Yuan.

Mu Yuan naturally knew that Prince Ning's arrival was not for good purposes. He pondered for a moment, then said to the soldier who had announced the arrival:

"Go outside the camp immediately and bring Prince Ning in."

With Mu Yuan's consent, the soldiers rushed out of the camp without stopping.

A short while later.

Prince Ning, Zhu Zheng, appeared at the training ground with a ruddy complexion, followed by more than ten people.

"The Western Army is indeed full of arrogant and fierce soldiers. This army will be mine sooner or later!"

Upon entering the military camp, Zhu Zheng keenly sensed that all the soldiers of the Western Army were staring at him with the eyes of hungry wolves, as if they wanted to devour him alive.

"Didn't Prince Ning return to the capital? What wind blew this great Buddha back here?"

Mu Yuan's face remained calm, and his tone revealed no emotion.

"I heard that the young prince has joined the army and is eating and drinking with the soldiers. Life in the army is very tough. Moreover, in the vast Mu family, you are now the only male. What if something happens to you with your sickly body? That's why I rushed back as soon as I heard the news, just to visit the young prince."

As Zhu Zheng said this, a strange smile appeared on his lips.

Mu Yuan might not be able to guess what others were thinking, but he knew all too well what Prince Ning was thinking.

The visit was a pretense.

The test is real.

Prince Ning's covetousness of the Western Army and his desire to seize military power are blatantly obvious.

Now, upon hearing that he has entered the military camp, they hurriedly turned back, just because they were afraid that he would establish his authority in the military camp and thus threaten the subsequent plan to take over the Xifu Army.

With his hands behind his back, Mu Yuan's aura suddenly intensified, and he spoke in a superior tone, "I, the young master, am eating and sleeping well here, so there's no need for Prince Ning to trouble himself!"

"What kind of attitude is this? My lord came to visit you out of kindness, and you respond with such arrogance?"

At this moment, a pale-faced young man suddenly stood up from behind Prince Ning and sternly criticized Mu Yuan's arrogant behavior.

"Who are you?" Mu Yuan's gaze fell on the pale-faced young man, and he raised an eyebrow slightly.

"I am Ma Wenbin, a staff member of the Prince of Ning's residence!"

Ma Wenbin said proudly.

"A staff member?" Mu Yuan smiled knowingly and asked, "If you're a staff member, then you don't hold any official position?"

Before Ma Wenbin could even understand the meaning behind Mu Yuan's words...

Then Mu Yuan shouted:

"Men, seize this man!"

As soon as the voice rang out, two soldiers from the Western Army rushed forward, grabbed Ma Wenbin's arm, and subdued him.

"Mu Yuan, what do you mean by this? You dare to arrest my people?"

Prince Ning was furious.

He really couldn't understand why Mu Yuan suddenly launched an attack; what was he up to?

"Your Highness, this is a strategically important military location, not just anyone can enter! Although this man is your advisor, he holds no official position. It is entirely reasonable for me to arrest a commoner with no official rank and a suspicious identity!"

With just a few words, Mu Yuan labeled Ning Wang's advisor as having a suspicious identity, and then gave Ning Wang a provocative smile at the end.

"Suspicious identity? You mean, my man isn't a wanted criminal?" Prince Ning's face darkened, his pupils suddenly contracting. "Mu Yuan, you'd better give me an explanation, or I'll definitely report you to the Emperor!"
