Xuanming patiently coaxed her, "You are carrying the future hope of the Xuancang Dynasty, a great thing that the whole world should celebrate. Besides, there is a lot of rain in autumn, and the southern region is prone to flooding. Now is a good time to take precautions."
Mu Zhi smiled helplessly, "You've created so much hype for this child, what if it's a girl?"
Upon hearing this, Xuanming smiled with delight, "If it were a daughter, that would be wonderful. A daughter is a father's warm little cotton-padded jacket."
Mu Zhi gently pinched his arm, "You look nothing like you used to be."
Shadow, who was following not far away, heard this sentence with sharp ears and nodded in agreement.
The Emperor now looks exactly like a naive young man who has just met his sweetheart, the kind of greenhorn the Grand Tutor described.

She was the one suffering from morning sickness and having a poor appetite, unable to eat, yet he looked even worse than her.
“Sometimes it’s too late, you don’t need to come here. It’s too much trouble for you to travel back and forth.” Mu Zhi said, panting, after taking a few steps.
