Life Arrives

  Year after year, entwined and inseparable 82 Life has arrived

  "No!" Her face turned pale again.

  Baili Muru caught the falling body of Yan'er, picked her up and put her on the bed, stretched out his hand to grab the quilt to cover her, and was startled by the wet heat on the back of his hand...

  "Qianer, Qianer, what's wrong with you!" Baili Muru patted Qianer's cheeks, he didn't understand these things about women, but his hands were stained with a faint trace of blood, Baili Muru panicked.

  "Mother... Mother Bai, I really want to... give birth... Give birth." Yan'er clutched her belly tightly, enduring the pain and panting heavily.

  "What's to be done? I'll go find a doctor." Baili Muyue stretched out her hand to pull the quilt over Yan'er.

  "Wait, find the midwife." Yan'er grabbed Baili Muru's hand: "Save...the child, he is Yu Yang's! Must save the child!" Yan'er's sweat dripped down like rain.

  Baili Mugua quickly opened the door and called out for a woman: "It's her, she's about to give birth!"

  The old woman lifted the quilt and looked at her face: "Quickly! Go boil some water, go quickly, the child can't hold on anymore, it's a sin, the amniotic fluid has all been drained."

  Baili Mowei temporarily put down his heartache and started to make a fire to boil water. The midwife shouted loudly, urging him to hurry up with the boiling water. Baili Mowei anxiously added more firewood, but no matter how hard he tried, the water just wouldn't boil. He rolled up his sleeves and used his internal energy to speed up the flames, and soon a pot of hot water was ready, all thanks to his own efforts. The midwife saw that they were living together and assumed Baili Mowei was the woman's husband.

  "Come over and hold her body!" The midwife rolled up her sleeves again, reached into the quilt: "Don't let go under any circumstances!"

  "Ah!" Yan's body arched in pain, Bai Muli pressed down on her body fiercely. After a struggle, a cry finally broke the tense atmosphere.

  "It's a boy." The midwife handed the baby over to Baili Mengbai.

  Baili Muru looked at the infant in the swaddle, his face covered in blood, unable to make out any features, so ugly that he couldn't bear to look a second time. He held the child with both hands and stood in the middle of the room, watching as the midwife was still busy tending to Yan'er.

  "Who holds a child like that!" The midwife glared at him, took the child from him and held it up for Bai Li Mu to see: "See? You have to hold a child like this. Be careful of the child's waist, it's very fragile. If an adult is not careful, they might accidentally cause the child to die." The midwife had already taken care of Yan Er who had fainted and was now wiping away the blood that was almost dry on the child's face with a towel.

  "You don't even have a personal servant to take care of the new mother, you should hurry up and hire a nanny to serve her during her confinement. I think your wife's milk won't be enough, you need to prepare for finding a wet nurse to feed the child." The midwife continued to nag on, Bai Li Mowei's head was getting bigger at this moment.

  Baili Mubai held the newborn life, his eyes slightly red-rimmed. This little life was probably the only bloodline of Shixiong. Baili Mubai gently placed him beside Yan'er, and the little guy suddenly left Baili Mubai's arms and started wailing loudly.

  Her eyes opened weakly: "Mu Bai."

  "Face, you're awake, come take a look at him, it's a boy." Baili Muru Bai helplessly picked up the baby again, and as soon as the baby was in Baili Muru Bai's arms, he surprisingly stopped crying loudly.

  "He likes you very much, Mu Bai, give him a name." Yan'er struggled to sit up and leaned against the edge of the bed.

  "It's up to you." Baili Muru looked at the child who had closed his eyes peacefully in her arms, and a kind of unprecedented surprise made her feel inexplicably moved.

  "He likes you, take it, if Pan Yueyang were here... he would definitely agree to give this child a name." Yan'er's face changed slightly, thinking that she had hated Pan Yueyang thoroughly, but when she heard the news of Pan Yueyang's death, she realized that deep down, she still cared about this man and loved him.

  "Call... the child to battle." Baili Muru looked at the child.

  "Zi war?" Yan'er thought for a moment: "But what about the character 'war'?"

  "The son will fight for his father, his biological father is a legendary god of war, this child must inherit his father's legacy, I have decided that I will personally teach him martial arts and make sure he does not lose to his own father." Ba Li Mu Bai thought of his master brother, a hot tear almost came out.

  "Good." She glanced at the child, her eyes fluttering with a smile. This child might be the only bloodline of the Moon Sun clan; she would protect him at all costs.

  Baili Mugen hired a wet nurse to take care of Yan'er's postpartum confinement, just as the midwife had said. Yan'er didn't have any milk to feed the child, and now she was too weak to eat or drink anything. Baili Mugen could only find another nanny to feed the child every day. However, Zi Zhan liked to stick to Baili Mugen, except when he was eating or sleeping, at other times, he would be held by Baili Mugen, otherwise he would cry and make a fuss.

  Her face recovered quickly due to not taking care of the child, and the child didn't like following her. Although she was Zihan's birth mother, Zihan preferred to stick with Baili Muru: "Hehe, Muru." Yan'er couldn't help but laugh out loud at Muru playing with Zihan.

  "What's wrong?" Baili Muru's attention was focused on Zi Zhan.

  "Is it because I've been relying on you since I had the kid? Now that Xiao Zhan is born, he recognizes and relies on you too?" Yan'er looked at Baili Muru and Zi Zhan, her heart aching with emotions she could only keep to herself.

  "Maybe, right, I received a letter this morning from the Imperial City side, you open it and take a look." Baili Mubai took out the letter from his pocket, he guessed it was related to Guan Canghai, holding Zi Zhan in his arms, his heart was all on Zi Zhan's body. Baili Mubai thought that perhaps in this life, Zi Zhan would be his own son, for the sake of his Shixiong, he would protect little Zi Zhan well.

  She opened the letter and quickly read it, then pushed it to Baili Mingyue's desk: "He says we should go over, I heard that Guodu is also going to move to the Imperial City."

  "This is intentional!" Baili Murong didn't have time to read the letter, he just casually glanced at it a few times.

  "Mu Bai, for the sake of Zi Zhan, from now on you listen to me." Yan Er thought for a moment, if one day Zi Zhan found out that the child was not his own, he would definitely implicate Zi Zhan, Mu Bai was the best shield, but having a shield did not mean being completely safe.

  She tossed and turned in bed all night, thinking carefully about many things, many details. Early the next morning, she directly knocked on Baili Muxue's door.

  Knock knock knock——

  "Mu Bai?" The girl's face seemed to hear some movement inside.

  "Wait, wait." Baili Muyue casually tightened her belt and hugged Ziyan as she appeared at the door.

  "How did you get into my room?" Yan Er looked at her son.

  "You also said, this mother of yours doesn't even know how to take care of her own son, and yet I'm the one who has to take care of him." Baili Muru's words were full of discontent, but his face was filled with satisfaction as he looked at Zi Yan.

  "Me..." Ah, she also wants her son to follow in her footsteps, but unfortunately this son has been distant from her since birth.

  "Last night, the wet nurse couldn't coax him to sleep, so she came to find me. As a result, I held this little guy and slept beautifully for a whole night. I think that when Zi Zhan stops drinking milk, I can fire the wet nurse." Bai Li Mu Bai lifted Zi Zhan high up, teasing him into a wide smile.

  "I'll go in and tell you." Yan'er walked into the room, closing the door behind her: "Last night I thought for a long time, I decided to go to the Imperial City, when the child is full moon we will go to the Imperial City."

  "Are you really going?" Zi Zhan looked at his mother in Bai Mu's arms.

  "Go, you must go. I'm worried about Zhan's safety by the sea, I'm afraid he'll be at a disadvantage in battle. After all, this person is cautious and won't trust many people easily. So you stay with Zhan, don't leave his side for a moment. I'll think of a way to keep him from following me, you help me take care of him." Yan's words were like a farewell before death, listening to them made Baili Mubai feel somewhat sorrowful.

  "You decide for yourself, I'll take care of Zi Zhan." Bai Li Mu also didn't want to leave Zi Zhan, in the past half month, their relationship was like that of a parent and child...

  Today, Zi Zhan is full moon, the day to leave Moon City is getting closer and closer. Bai Li Mu is considering taking the wet nurse with him to the Imperial City and gave her double the silver.

  Her face had also begun to collect some fine things, preparing a lot of clothes for the children to change into, and tomorrow morning they would return to the Imperial City, that place where she had escaped with more than just nostalgia.

  Baili Mubai bought a horse-drawn carriage, and Yan'er got in with Ziyan and the wet nurse. The carriage was specially chosen by Baili Mubai for its spacious interior, which had two beds inside. The wet nurse put down her bundle on the smaller bed beside the larger one, and the floor of the carriage was covered with thick carpets that felt extremely soft underfoot. Yan'er sat on the large bed holding the sleeping Ziyan.

  "Can we go now?" Ba Li Mu Bai lifted up the carriage curtain and looked at the three of them.

  The girl nodded, and Baili Muru nodded back at her. He pulled down the carriage curtains, and the horse-drawn vehicle began to move slowly forward.

  It was originally a half-month journey, but Baili Muxue slowed down for the sake of Yan'er and the child. Sometimes, Baili Muxue would stop the horse carriage, hold Zihan who had woken up from his sleep, and play with him, while the wet nurse supported Yan'er as they followed behind them.

  "Madam, your husband is really great. Such a good man, whoever marries him will be truly blessed." The wet nurse didn't know the true relationship between Baili Muxue and Yan'er.

  "Thank you." Her face didn't show much expression.

  After a month of traveling on and off, Yan finally returned to the imperial city once again.

  "Ah, Mubai... I remember around this time last year, you roasted sparrows for me." Yan'er lifted the carriage curtain, and at that moment, the horse carriage was passing by the small hill below. Yan'er looked up.

  Baili Muru didn't say a word, reins turned right, the carriage changed direction and headed straight for the hill.

  Yan'er jumped off the horse cart, handed the child to the wet nurse, and walked alone up the hill. The scene from over a year ago was still vivid in her mind... Looking in the direction where Pan Yueyang led his troops out of the city back then, Yan'er stretched out her hand in mid-air, and she saw that man in black armor again - proud, confident, and majestic. She waved at him on the hill: "Yueyang..."

  Baili Muru set up a fire and put the captured sparrows aside, looking at Yan'er's distracted expression. Baili Muru was very sure that Yan'er had not deceived him, she still loved her senior brother in her heart. Afraid that Yan'er would lose her footing and fall down, Baili Muru walked over and pulled Yan'er back from the edge of the hill.

  "Mu Bai, I think he..." Yan'er suddenly hugged Baili Mu Bai and burst into tears.
