Her face grew paler and paler, and her lips, which were originally as rosy as peach blossoms, were now bloodless, like petals withering in winter.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and those beads of sweat were illuminated by the faint morning light shining through the palace doors.
It shimmered with a crystalline yet fragile light, as if it might slip away at any moment.
She looked weak and helpless, as if a slight breeze could blow her slender body over.
Seeing this, the Emperor became even more worried, his eyes filled with concern.
He quickly gave a wink to Physician Xu, who understood immediately and hurriedly walked to Ye Yunyao's side with steady yet rapid steps.
His expression was solemn, his eyes focused and professional. He gently extended his hand, which was as steady as a rock, to take Ye Yunyao's pulse and make a diagnosis.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, focusing intently on feeling the pulse, as if trying to uncover the secrets of his body from the subtle pulsation.
Standing to the side, Qin Qianlu witnessed this sudden scene and couldn't help but feel puzzled.
She frowned slightly, her brows furrowing like willow leaves in spring, her eyes filled with concern and curiosity.
She couldn't help but silently ask Feng Qingyun in her heart, "Yunbao, what's wrong with Minister Ye? She looks so unwell, could it be that she ate something bad? Or is she poisoned?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Qingyun's bright eyes flickered like stars in the night sky. Then, she opened Ye Yunyao's personal booklet.
Her eyes quickly scanned the booklet, examining it carefully before a look of understanding flashed in her eyes.
Then, she softly explained to Qin Qianluo, "No, Luobao, Ye Yunyao is pregnant. She's two months along now."
These thoughts, like a thunderclap piercing the darkness, exploded deep within Ye Yunyao's heart.
She was struck dumb, frozen in place, the overwhelming shock seemingly shaking her very soul.
Her eyes widened uncontrollably, filled with a mixture of disbelief and ecstasy, shining like two stars lit up in the deep night sky by surprise.
Her hand, as if gently guided by a mysterious force from the source of life, slowly and tremblingly touched her lower abdomen.
At this moment, inside this seemingly ordinary abdomen, a brand new little life is already like a seed containing endless vitality.
Quietly taking root and sprouting in the warm soil of the womb, it begins its wondrous and sacred journey of life.
The arrival of this little life was so sudden, yet it seemed to carry the hopes and wishes of her entire life.
Her emotions were like those of an ocean caught in a storm, surging and fluctuating wildly, so intense that she could hardly breathe.
This sudden and immense joy was like a timely rain after a long drought, crashing heavily onto her already parched heart.
This made her already uncomfortable dry heaving even more severe.
Her body trembled slightly, like a withered leaf drifting in the cold wind. In that trembling was awe and emotion at the miracle of life, as well as an indescribable ecstasy.
Physician Xu, standing to the side, was intently taking Ye Yunyao's pulse.
His brows were slightly furrowed, his eyes focused and deep, as if trying to perceive the deepest mysteries of life through the touch of his fingertips.
His fingers gently rested on Ye Yunyao's pulse, as if listening to a melody from the depths of her life.
As time slowly passed, a warm and gratified smile, like a spring breeze, gradually appeared on Physician Xu's face.
That smile seemed to dispel all the gloom in the world, bringing endless warmth and joy.
He said with a firm tone and full of joy, "Congratulations, Minister Ye."
This pulse is steady and strong, like the lingering sound of an ancient bell in a deep mountain, long and peaceful—it is a sign of good fortune.
Upon hearing Physician Xu's irrefutable and unquestionable diagnosis, Ye Yunyao felt as if her heart was in turmoil, filled with mixed emotions.
Tears, like a raging torrent bursting its banks, streamed uncontrollably from her eyes.
Over the years, she has experienced countless disappointments and pains on her long journey to have a child.
Each dashed hope was like a sharp knife, carving deep wounds into her heart.
She had long ago planted a seed of despair deep in her heart, convinced that she was destined to miss out on the happiness of motherhood and spend the rest of her life in endless regret.
However, at this moment, fate gave her a dreamlike surprise in such an unexpected and unexpected way.
Heaven was so generous in its favor, bestowing upon her the gift she had longed for and considered the most precious treasure in her life—a child of her own.
It was quietly delivered to her side. This sudden happiness made her feel as if she were floating on clouds, in a dreamlike state, and she couldn't believe it was all real.
Seeing Ye Yunyao's tears flowing uncontrollably, Physician Xu's eyes were filled with pity.
He quickly and gently comforted him, "Minister Ye, please don't shed tears. Pregnancy is a blessing from heaven. Your long-cherished wish has finally come true. You should be overjoyed."
If grief blinds my eyes, how will I be able to properly admire those exquisitely crafted little babies in the future?
Upon hearing Physician Xu's words of comfort, Ye Yunyao felt as if a boulder had been thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples of emotion to spread outwards, and wave after wave of warmth to surge into her heart.
She tilted her head slightly, tears glistening in her eyes, and nodded vigorously.
Then, she slowly raised her hand, her slender fingers like tender willows swaying gently in the spring breeze, carrying the utmost gentleness and care.
