The young servant immediately nodded, indicating that he understood.

When Qin Hanwu went out, he saw Jiang Jingyue standing there, idly touching her belly, seemingly lost in thought.

Even when he walked right up to her, Jiang Jingyue didn't notice.

If Qin Hanwu hadn't pulled her back, Jiang Jingyue probably wouldn't have come to her senses.

"Your Majesty, why did you come out in person? I could have gone in by myself."

Qin Hanwu reached out and pulled Jiang Jingyue's cloak tighter, then took her small hand in his.

"Xiao Jing is here, I must personally come out to greet him."

After entering the Imperial Study, Jiang Jingyue pulled Qin Hanwu to sit on his lap.

"Xiao Jing, what brings you here at this hour? Is there something you need to see me about?"

The reason Qin Hanwu asked this question was because Jiang Jingyue usually sleeps in her palace at this time, waiting for him to come over, but today she actually came out to find him.

This surprised Emperor Wu of Han.

Upon hearing his question, Jiang Jingyue instantly remembered why she had come here to find Qin Hanwu.

Jiang Jingyue checked her belly and found that the baby inside was now quiet and not moving. It seemed that Qin Hanwu would not have the chance to see it.

"Your Majesty, I came here just now so that you could feel the movement of the baby in my belly, but now they have suddenly stopped moving."

Qin Hanwu glanced at Jiang Jingyue's belly with some surprise, then looked at her again, as if asking her if it was true that the baby was moving.

Jiang Jingyue found it somewhat amusing. Could someone really lie about something like this?

"Your Majesty, you don't need to doubt it. The baby is developing inside the womb, and it will start to move at a certain time. The baby moving means that the baby is developing very well."

Qin Hanwu touched Jiang Jingyue's face and asked with some heartache.

"Xiao Jing, if you're like this, won't it hurt a lot when the baby moves inside you?"

Qin Hanwu looked at Jiang Jingyue with eyes full of heartache.

"Your Majesty, no, you don't need to worry about that. I don't feel anything. Although I do feel a little uncomfortable sometimes, it's still within my tolerance range."

At this moment, Jiang Jingyue felt the baby in her arms move again, which surprised and delighted her.

"Your Majesty, feel it and see, the baby moved, she just moved."

Seeing Jiang Jingyue's excited expression, Qin Hanwu immediately reached out and touched her stomach.

Sensing the peculiarity of the little life inside, Qin Hanwu couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly.

"Xiao Jing, the baby... the baby really moved! It's amazing!"

Seeing Qin Hanwu's curious expression, Jiang Jingyue couldn't help but laugh.

"Your Majesty, this is fetal movement. The baby's movements inside the womb are called fetal movement. At this stage, the baby can sometimes interact with people outside. You can try to communicate with her and talk to her."

Jiang Jiangyue's words immediately piqued Qin Hanwu's interest. He immediately lay down on Jiang Jiangyue's stomach and spoke to the child inside her.

"Children, I am your father. You must be good. After you are born, I will love you dearly. For now, you must behave well and not bully your mother."

Qin Hanwu talked for a long time, so long that the baby in his belly got a little dissatisfied and stopped kicking. Only then did he reluctantly leave.

"Xiao Jing, thank you, you've worked hard."

Jiang Jingyue shook her head. "It is my honor to bear children for Your Majesty. I have not felt any hardship at all."

Although Jiang Jingyue said that, Qin Hanwu still felt the hardship Jiang Jingyue had endured.

He knew how difficult it was for a woman to be pregnant.

Moreover, Jiang Jingyue is currently carrying more than one child, so her hardships are definitely much greater than those of an average person.

"Xiao Jing, I'll take you to the hot springs tonight to make you feel more comfortable, okay?"

Jiang Jingyue was a little confused about what a hot spring was. She didn't know what a hot spring was, which is why she couldn't help but ask.

"Your Majesty, where is the hot spring you mentioned? Is it inside or outside the palace?"

The weather is so cold now, I really don't want to go outside in the cold wind, it's very uncomfortable."

Qin Hahanwu watched as Jiang Jingyue gave a delicate little yawn, and his eyes immediately reddened, with mist welling up in the corners.

"It's not far, it's right next to our palace. I'll take you there now. Xiao Fu, go back and help the Empress prepare clothes and send them to the hot spring."

Xiao Fu nodded and, without hesitation, immediately ran outside.

Just as Jiang Jingyue was about to stand up, before she could even react, Qin Hanwu had already pulled her into his arms.

"Xiao Jing, you're not feeling well right now, so let me carry you."

Upon hearing him say that, Jiang Jingyue shook her head and did not agree.

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten what the imperial physician said? Last time, the imperial physician said that I needed to get some exercise. Now Your Majesty wants to carry me around again. This won't do."

Jiang Jingyue's words brought Qin Hanwu back to his senses instantly. He had indeed seen Jiang Jingyue walking with a large pregnant belly, looking very difficult, which was why he picked her up.

He had truly forgotten what the imperial physician had mentioned last time.

Qin Hanwu carefully placed her on the ground and then reached out to support her.

"Then, Xiao Jing, I'll help you walk. That way, you'll get some exercise too."

Qin Hanwu helped Jiang Jingyue to their destination. When she saw the scene in front of her, Jiang Jingyue finally realized what the hot spring pool was.

So it's a hot spring! She'd never been to a hot spring before, and she was quite excited.

"Your Majesty, this is the hot spring pool! It's huge! May we go in and soak?"

Qin Hanwu nodded as he looked at Jiang Jingyue. He had brought her here so that she could relax.

"Xiao Jing, I'll go down first, then you can go down, but be careful, okay?"

Jiang Jingyue felt a little embarrassed as she watched Qin Hanwu take off his clothes in front of her.

Although the two had done more intimate things, for some reason, Jiang Jingyue still couldn't look directly at Zou Hanwu's naked body.

She didn't dare to even glance at him, keeping her head down the whole time.

Qin Hanwu, who was watching from the side, found it somewhat amusing.

"Xiao Jing, what's there to be shy about? Quickly take off your clothes, and I'll carry you down."

When Jiang Jingyue heard Qin Hanwu say that, she became even more embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, please turn around. I feel embarrassed if you don't."
