"Mother, has Yueyue given birth? Where is Yueyue? I want to see her."
The Empress Dowager was startled by the sudden sound. After recovering, she immediately turned to look behind her.
As soon as I looked over, I saw Qi Yehan, who looked travel-worn.
The moment she saw him, the Empress Dowager immediately went up to him, just about to show the child in her arms to Qi Yehan. Unexpectedly, Qi Yehan's first words were to ask for Jiang Jingyue.
"Mother, where is Yueyue?"
Seeing how worried Qi Yehan was about Jiang Jingyue, the Empress Dowager felt somewhat gratified.
Consort Mei's suffering was not in vain; the Emperor did have feelings for her.
"Consort Mei is inside. The midwife is cleaning her up. She should be almost done. Would you like to go in and take a look? She—"
Before the Empress Dowager could finish speaking, the person in front of her had already disappeared.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor cares a lot about Consort Mei. You see, the first person he cares about when he returns is not even the child."
The Empress Dowager smiled slightly and nodded.
"That's good. He finally has someone who cares about him. I can rest assured now."
When Qi Yehan went in, he saw Jiang Jingyue lying there, her eyes full of exhaustion.
Seeing her like this, Qi Yehan felt a sudden pang of pain in his heart.
He immediately went to Jiang Jingyue's side, and with a look of tenderness, he helped her brush the hair that was soaked with sweat and stuck to her face, then leaned down and kissed her cheek.
"Yueyue, you've worked hard."
Perhaps it was because Qi Yehan made too much noise, but as soon as he finished kissing her, Jiang Jingyue slowly opened her eyes.
When Tai saw Qi Yehan, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, you're back! Weren't you supposed to be quelling the war? Why are you back so soon? Is it because I gave birth that you rushed back?"
At this moment, Jiang Jingyue's eyes were filled with emotion, and she looked at Qi Yehan with some excitement.
The moment I saw him nod, tears instantly streamed down my face.
The moment Qi Yehan saw Bai Jingyue shed tears, he panicked.
He immediately reached out to wipe away Jiang Jingyue's tears.
Despite wiping away her tears, Jiang Jingyue's tears continued to fall.
Seeing her tears streaming down her face, Qi Yehan felt heartbroken.
He reached out and hugged Jiang Jingyue, lowering his head to gently lick away the tears on her cheeks.
"Yueyue, why are you crying? You just gave birth and are still in your postpartum period. You can't cry, it's bad for your health."
"Your Majesty, I know, but I just can't help it. I'm so moved when I think about how Your Majesty rushed back because of my childbirth."
"It's not that I want to cry, it's that my eyes won't listen to me."
Seeing the little woman like this, Qi Yehan couldn't help but smile. He hugged Jiang Jingyue, his eyes filled with pity.
"Yueyue, thank you. I really can't express how grateful I am to you. I am very grateful to you."
Jiang Jingyue felt that this back-and-forth gratitude wasn't going to work, so she changed the subject and suddenly asked Qi Yehan.
"Your Majesty, where is the child? Have you seen it? What did I give birth to? Is it a boy or a girl?"
Jiang Jingyue already knew exactly what had happened while the child was still in her womb.
The reason I'm asking this now is to change the subject.
When Jiang Jingyue asked him this, Qi Yehan's face stiffened. When he came back, he was so focused on checking on her that he completely forgot about the child.
Seeing his embarrassed look, Jiang Jingyue knew that he definitely hadn't seen the child yet.
Just then, the Empress Dowager walked in from outside and immediately began to tease her.
"Xiaoyue, Your Majesty, please don't say anything more. He only has eyes for you. When he just came back, I asked him to look at the child, but all he could think about was seeing you."
I hadn't even finished speaking when he burst in! It's truly rare to see His Majesty like this!
As soon as the Empress Dowager finished speaking, she pushed aside Qi Yehan, who was surrounding Jiang Jingyue, and squeezed herself next to her.
"Xiaoyue, you gave birth to two children, a little princess and a little prince. They both look a lot like you. Look at them, they're so cute."
Jiang Jingyue stared intently at the child in front of her. She had to admit, her child was truly exceptional; he was incredibly cute.
Her little face was so round and chubby that you just wanted to poke it. That's what Jiang Jingyue thought, and that's what she did.
She couldn't help but reach out and poke the little bundle of flesh in front of her. Perhaps it was because her nails were long, but the moment she touched him, the child, who had been quiet in the Empress Dowager's arms, burst into tears.
Seeing her child crying like this, Jiang Jingyue felt a little embarrassed.
She really didn't mean it; she just thought it was fun, so she did it. She didn't expect the child to have such a strong opinion about it.
Jiang Jingyue looked at Qi Yehan and said with some helplessness.
"Your Majesty, I found his fair and tender skin cute, so I couldn't help but poke him. I didn't expect him to cry."
Seeing the little woman's helpless expression, Qi Yehan couldn't help but laugh.
"Yueyue, it's just that the child is being unreasonable. You only hurt him because he's cute. What's there to cry about? Don't you think so?"
I don't know if it was because of what Qi Yehan said that the child cried even harder.
The Empress Dowager kept holding and comforting the child, but the child kept crying. Seeing the child crying like this, Qi Yehan felt a little bad.
"Mother, let me hold you for a bit."
As soon as Qi Yehan uttered these words, the Empress Dowager looked up at him, her eyes filled with disbelief.
"Your Majesty, are you sure you really want to hold the children? They're not so easy to hold."
Although he disliked children crying, Qi Yehan still opened his arms to the child in front of him who was crying with tears streaming down his face.
"Mother, let me hold them for a bit! Maybe they like it when I hold them!"
Since Qi Yehan had already said so, the Empress Dowager could no longer refuse and could only hand the child in her hands to Qi Yehan.
Strangely enough, the child who was crying and fussing would become perfectly well-behaved as soon as he was in Qi Yehan's arms.
Not only was the Empress Dowager surprised, but even Qi Yehan himself was extremely astonished.
"Your Majesty, the children seem to really like you! They stopped crying as soon as you held them."
Qi Yehan took the child from Hua Mama's arms and held the two children on either side of her.
For a moment, no one could describe his feelings.
He still can't quite believe it.
