Bai Zhi'er pursed her lips.
She looked at the young man helping to chop wood in the yard.
This should be the child Hong Yue gave birth to in the year the Ghost Prisoner entered prison.
"When your husband left, did he know you were pregnant?"
Hong Yue gave a shy smile: "Not yet, I was just one month pregnant at the time."
"He said he was transferred to the Xing Sect as a prison guard, and as long as he performed well this time, Lord Inspector of the Xing Sect would promote him."
"I planned to wait until he returned to tell him the good news, but when I was five months pregnant, the Capital was surrounded by war."
"The location of the Xing Sect is hidden, and I don't know where he went."
"But I heard that Lord Inspector, responsible for managing the Xing Sect, escaped by ship with a group of prison guards."
"I think he was among them, it must have been urgent, he didn't have time to inform me."
Bai Zhi'er gently sighed upon hearing this.
Hong Yue seemed to sense something.
