As Wan Ge was leaving, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a fleeting hem of clothing ahead.
…
As she reached the door, she saw Ye Zhao standing there. With a smile in her eyes, Wan Ge said, "I didn't know Your Majesty had an interest in eavesdropping."
Ye Zhao seemed uninterested, simply pulling the person into a hug and replying, "If I don't listen, how can I know that Her Majesty the Empress loves me so much, hmm? So much that she would give her life for me?"
Wan Ge smiled and tacitly agreed. As long as he didn't betray her, she could always be with him.
Ye Zhao whispered in her ear, "You must not lie to me. If you lie to me, that is deceiving the emperor, and the crime of deceiving the emperor is punishable by beheading."
"I'm not lying to you, don't worry." Wange took his hand and left together.
…
As soon as she returned to the entrance of the palace, Wan Ge suddenly felt dizzy.
Ye Zhao quickly pulled the person into his arms, picked them up, and told the eunuch beside him to quickly call the imperial physician. He carried the person back to his palace.
"Little Ge'er, what's wrong?" Ye Zhao's eyes were filled with worry.
Wan Ge shook her head and replied softly, "I'm fine, I'm just a little dizzy, don't worry."
The imperial physician arrived quickly and was extremely surprised after taking her pulse.
Seeing the imperial physician's expression, Ye Zhao was almost frantic with worry: "How is it?"
The imperial physician stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress is pregnant, but..."
"But what? Tell me quickly!"
The female physician, her face slightly flushed, replied, "Your Majesty was probably pregnant before the assassination attempt. Falling from such a high cliff and sustaining such severe injuries, yet not miscarrying, this child is truly blessed. However… given what happened, we were unaware of Your Majesty's pregnancy and the numerous medications you had taken beforehand…"
The female physician knelt down on the ground: "Your Majesty, I am worried that the young prince is not healthy."
Ye Zhao clenched his fists tightly at his sides and said, "What should we do now? No matter what, we must ensure the Empress's safety."
"Your Majesty's health is not suitable for abortion. My suggestion is that Your Majesty give birth to the young prince, but... I fear the young prince might..."
"That's alright. In any case, I will protect him and ensure his safety and well-being throughout his life."
…
Wan Ge stroked her belly and asked, "Will it cause deformities?"
Ruan Ruan said softly, "Don't worry, sir. He's your child. He won't really become deformed or have any intellectual impairment."
"That's good." Wan Ge breathed a sigh of relief. She really didn't want her child to come into the world to suffer. If he wasn't a healthy child and wouldn't grow up safely, perhaps not keeping him was the best thing to do.
But if he is safe and sound, then nothing else matters.
…
…
Eight months later, Wan Ge gave birth to a healthy child with all four limbs intact.
When it was first born, it was wrinkled and ugly, but it didn't take long for it to turn into a beautiful, delicate jade bracelet.
Ye Zhao gently rubbed his cheek against Wan Ge's hair, looking at the sleeping child beside him.
When Ye Chen was born, he was actually quite worried. He was worried that his wife would have a severe hemorrhage and a difficult childbirth, and he was also worried that the child would be born with defects.
Fortunately, the evening performance went smoothly and the child did not experience too much pain; the child is very healthy.
He was even healthier than most children. Everyone said that the Emperor and Empress were blessed with good fortune, and the little prince was also a lucky person. That's why he survived falling off the cliff, and why the Empress would become deformed after drinking so much medicine.
