BXBX NOVEL Chapter 449 - 12.57
"Yes, I want you to examine and determine whether my wife, Bai Yunyu, is pregnant or not."
"Certainly, Your Majesty."
The Imperial Physician politely asked Bai Yunyu and Emperor Xianliang to return to the palace for a more private examination. Huang Shu carried his wife even though Yunyu protested, "I can walk by myself."
"And I don\'t anything happened to you, not when I\'m here," Huang Shu smiled, and they went to Yunyu\'s room inside the Palace of Serene Harmony.
The Imperial Physician instructed Yunyu to lay on the bed and then checked the pulse on Yunyu\'s wrist. He hummed for a second and then said, "I need to make sure, if Master Bai and Your Majesty allow this one, please open your outer robe. I need to check the belly."
Huang Shu untied the sash by himself and exposed Yunyu\'s belly. However, he carefully covered part of Yunyu\'s body, even with the inner robe still intact. He glared at the imperial physician, which made him terrified.
"Aish, don\'t scare him! He needs to check up on me!" Yunyu scolded Huang Shu. The mighty Emperor pouted to his wife and finally said, "Go on, check on my wife\'s belly."
The Imperial Physician touched Yunyu\'s belly that was bugging slightly and then pressed on some part lightly, then the nodded.
"Your Majesty, this might sound a bit shocking. But I deduce that Master Bai Yunyu has been pregnant for about two months."
"TWO MONTHS?!" Huang Shu gawked. He still remembered the last time they did it was a month ago, so that meant, at that time, Yunyu was already pregnant.
He got worried and felt guilty instantly. Because he pounded Yunyu crazily at that time, "T—Then how about the baby? Is it alright?"
"This is because Ger men usually have a late sign of pregnancy, and due to their stronger body, they wouldn\'t feel a thing until it was two or three months. From what I checked, there is nothing wrong with Master Bai\'s womb."
"But Your Majesty should restraint yourself from doing a night activity with Master Bai from now on. It might be dangerous in the long run."
Bai Yunyu was embarrassed when the Imperial physician said that. He glared at Huang Shu as a warning, so he wouldn\'t try to touch Yunyu again, at least for an extended period.
Huang Shu gulped. He then closed his wife\'s inner robe and put the outer robe again. He looked at the Imperial Physician and said, "You may leave now."
The Imperial Physician excused himself, leaving the pair of lovebirds inside their nest. Huang Shu carefully snuggled with Yunyu and showering him with kisses.
"You\'re finally pregnant, wife!" Huang Shu said excitedly. He kissed Yunyu\'s cheek so many times that he lost count. Meanwhile, Yunyu tried to push Huang Shu\'s forehead.
"Stop kissing me. Your kisses wet my cheek!"
Huang Shu was so happy that he could really run around the forbidden city out of excitement. "Yunyu, I\'m so happy that you got pregnant. I can finally have a child from you."
Yunyu smiled, "What\'s the big deal with that? I\'m still a fertile Ger man. Of course, I will get pregnant sooner or later."
"I know, it\'s just…" Huang Shu felt emotional when he finally saw Yunyu got pregnant for the first time. Because in the previous timeline, Yunyu\'s cinnabar mole gradually disappeared after they got married, and he never had a chance to bear a baby.
Huang Shu hugged Bai Yunyu and said, "Dear wife, I will make sure to protect you. I will make sure that no one will be able to hurt you, especially since you are carrying our baby now."
"I am Huang Shu, Emperor Xianliang, the son of heaven. I swear by heaven\'s sake that I would protect you forever, my beloved Bai Yunyu."
"And you will be my one and only spouse. You\'re my soulmate," Huang Shu pledged for Yunyu, and then he kissed Yunyu\'s cinnabar mole.
Yunyu knew how big of that pledge was. An Emperor\'s pledge was recorded by the heaven, and to be able to gain such huge favor…
He was more than blessed.
"Then, I hope you will continue loving me, Huang Shu. I don\'t need anything else other than your love," Yunyu said. "Even when I\'m not young anymore, not beautiful anymore, I hope you will keep loving me forever, and let me be greedy of your love."
The pair of lovebirds stayed inside their nest for a while, enjoying their time together. For Huang Shu especially, he just realized how much he missed in the previous timeline.
He was too busy with his status, too busy with everything that he never actually protected his wife. He thought he would be happy when he got everything as the Golden Emperor.
But everything turned out to be a facade because the true happiness for him came when he was alone with Yunyu. When nothing could disturb them.
Huang Shu whispered affectionately, \'Yunyu, I became the Emperor for you. But I will trade the world just for this moment.\'
**
The news that Bai Yunyu got pregnant spread really fast in the inner palace. And in a month, almost everyone in the forbidden city already knew about Emperor Xianliang\'s wife and soon-to-be Empress\'s pregnancy.
Including Empress Dowager Aixi, the moment she heard about Bai Yunyu\'s pregnancy, she was driven mad and almost killed her servant out of rage.
"So this is why my son suddenly put me under house arrest?! Because he wants to protect that deformed bitch?! Oh, I will show him how much he has strayed from heaven\'s path because of that bitch!" Empress Dowager glared at the young maid and her old mother. They were dragged and badly beaten by Empress Dowager\'s servants.
"Why haven\'t you give that deformed bitch the tea yet?" Empress Dowager Aixi asked.
The old maid hesitated before. She preferred serving under Master Bai Yunyu. Because he was a good Master. So she hid the box of tea leaves inside her room, not wanting to hurt Master Bai.
But the information about Master Bai\'s pregnancy didn\'t help her. If only Master Bai and Emperor Xianliang would hide the good news…
Empress Dowager Aixi gritted her teeth. She glanced at her loyal eunuch, and the eunuch pointed a knife on the young maid\'s neck. The young woman whimpered, calling her old mother\'s name.
"Give that tea leaves to the deformed bitch today. If you failed to do it, then I will kill your daughter and feed her to the pigs!" Empress Dowager threatened. She wasn\'t like her usual cold and noble attitude right now. She was in a chaotic mind, worrying that the deformed bitch\'s status would strengthen while her position would be replaced soon by that bitch as the new Empress.
If this problem continued, there would be no place for Xi Yue unless Empress Dowager also killed Yunyu\'s child later on, which would be an even harder task for her, knowing how protective her son, Emperor Xianliang was.
"Poison him now! I want that bitch to drink that tea as soon as possible! I don\'t want that deformed bitch to replace me in power. That is an utter humiliation!"
