After Murong Xuewei finished dressing up, Liuli looked at Murong Xuewei with admiration.

"Madam, you're amazing! You don't look unwell at all."

Murong Xuewei put down the rouge in her hand and looked at herself in the mirror from left to right. "I also think the new rouge from this cosmetics shop is quite good. We can notify them to start selling it in large quantities."

Liuli nodded happily, "Yes, Madam. I'll go and talk to the shopkeeper of the cosmetics store in a bit and ask him to put this rouge on the shelves."

After they had finished packing, Murong Xuewei took Liuli to the military camp.

The general's mansion is in the middle of the capital city, while Gu Ye's military camp for training troops is in the north of the city. There is a distance between them, and you need to pass through several bustling streets.

Halfway there, Murong Xuewei heard the hawking outside and felt that going to the military camp like this was not a good idea.

It doesn't seem like they're going to visit relatives at the military camp; it's more like they're going to catch someone cheating.

Thinking of this, Murong Xuewei instructed Liuli to buy some snacks and pastries to take to the military camp as a reward for the soldiers.

Liuli got out of the carriage and, following the usual practice of rewarding the servants in the mansion, bought some pastries.

Murong Xuewei set off again with these snacks, heading towards the military camp.

When they arrived at the military camp, Murong Xuewei realized that she had forgotten to ask Gu Ye where he usually trained his troops that morning.

I had no choice but to ask Liuli.

The moment Murong Xuewei entered the military camp, a large group of soldiers surrounded her.

The military camp is usually full of rough men. Even when family members come to visit, it's always arranged in advance, and the soldiers are there to greet them at the camp gate. This is the first time they've seen such a beautiful young woman come to the camp and no one has come to pick her up.

So the moment Murong Xuewei stepped into the military camp, the soldiers were already gossiping about whose young lady she was.

Some people even started betting in private, wagering on who this young lady was looking for.

Some say they came to see Deputy General Qin, while others say they came to see Deputy General Zhao, because these two deputy generals in the military camp are both still single and love to philander.

So when Liuli came over to ask, everyone craned their necks to hear what she had to say.

When Liuli asked about Gu Ye, they were all incredulous.

"Young lady, are you sure you haven't asked the wrong person? Shouldn't your young lady have found either Deputy General Qin or Deputy General Zhao?"

Liuli looked at the soldiers in front of her with suspicion, "Who are those? My lady is the general's wife, so naturally she's here to see General Gu!"

The soldier who had spoken realized he had said the wrong thing and quickly covered his mouth.

"No one, the general is currently training soldiers at the First Military Training Ground. I'll take you there now."

The soldiers who had been watching the commotion all disappeared, hiding themselves away.

Two fearless individuals were still secretly gossiping behind each other's backs.

"Wasn't it said that the general's wife came from the border? Are there such gentle and beautiful women on the border?"

Another person looked equally puzzled, "We've been fighting on the border for years, when have we ever seen such a beautiful woman!"

"But didn't that person come to see the general today? Now the general's wife is here too, wouldn't that mean...?"

Murong Xuewei followed the soldier all the way to the training ground where Gu Ye was.

But as I walked, I felt something was off. Why were all these soldiers looking at me with such pitiful eyes?

Before Murong Xuewei could figure things out, they had already arrived at the First Martial Arts Arena where Gu Ye was.

When she arrived, Murong Xuewei finally understood why the soldiers were looking at her with such pitiful eyes.

In the middle of the training ground, Gu Ye, dressed in military uniform, was calmly directing his soldiers in their drills.

From a distance, it looks like a mighty and imposing army of lions.

If anyone was out of place, it would be Xiao Sining, who was weaving through the soldiers alongside Gu Ye.

At this moment, Murong Xiao Si Ning was dressed in a pink dress, her hair adorned with pearl hairpins, looking like a butterfly.

From Murong Xuewei's perspective, it even looks somewhat comical.

Gu Ye seemed to be doing it on purpose; as soon as Xiao Sining came close, he would immediately move to another spot.

When Xiao Si Ning didn't come closer, Gu Ye stopped there, giving Xiao Si Ning the illusion that Gu Ye was waiting for her.

Then Xiao Sining would immediately run to Gu Ye's side.

Murong Xuewei stood in the shade, watching Gu Ye tease Xiao Sining.

Murong Xuewei even felt a little sorry for Xiao Sining. Under such a bright sun, she was wearing such gorgeous clothes and so much jewelry, and she still went to wipe Gu Ye's sweat.

Murong Xuewei thought Xiao Sining should wipe her sweat first.

However, from Murong Xuewei's perspective, it seems that Xiao Sining can't wipe her sweat either.

Because as soon as Xiao Sining wiped away her sweat, all the makeup she had worked so hard on today was ruined.

Murong Xuewei couldn't help but sigh.

The soldier who led Murong Xuewei to the right place thought that Murong Xuewei felt inferior and sad after seeing Xiao Sining.

Unable to resist, he comforted Murong Xuewei, "Madam, don't be sad. Although Princess Si Ning is of noble status, I assure you, the general hasn't even glanced at her twice during the past few days she's been in the military camp."

"Has she been at the military camp for several days already?" Murong Xuewei asked.

The soldier nodded. "She arrived five days ago. She comes as soon as we start training in the morning and stays by the general's side every day until we finish training in the evening before leaving."

"She really worked hard that period. A princess, she did so much for Gu Ye."

The soldier was a little confused. Shouldn't the general's wife be jealous? Why was she concerned about the princess?

Having watched the show long enough, Murong Xuewei walked towards Gu Ye.

In fact, Gu Ye had already seen Murong Xuewei arrive, but when he found that she was standing not far away watching the show, he didn't call out to her.

When Murong Xuewei walked towards him, Gu Ye also put away his stern face and walked towards Murong Xuewei with a smile.

"Xuewei, what brings you here?"

Murong Xuewei smiled as she looked at Gu Ye holding her hand. "I saw that it was so hot and I was worried that you wouldn't eat well in the military camp, so I specially asked Liuli to buy some pastries and send them over to you."

When Xiao Sining saw Murong Xuewei, she walked over and said irritably, "Madam Murong, what are you doing in the military camp instead of staying at home?"

Murong Xuewei bowed to Xiao Sining according to custom, saying, "Greetings, Princess."

Xiao Sining raised her hand and said, "Get up!"

"The princess just said that women shouldn't come to the military camp, but I think the princess is also a woman! Why is the princess allowed to come to the military camp?"

Murong Xuewei's questions left Xiao Sining speechless, and she could only look at the maid behind her.

"How dare you! What the princess does is none of your business."

That maid must have been specially given to Xiao Sining by Xiao Wanning. The maid stepped forward and raised her hand to hit Murong Xuewei.
