The imperial guards on duty outside were all wearing tense expressions. They quickly made another round of inspection and came back to report, "Commander, no abnormalities were discovered!"
"Increase patrols, if anyone is found sneaking into the palace, you all bring me their heads!" Mo Qi was very strict with them.
The number of imperial guards outside suddenly doubled.
Zi Wei settled Su Yingxue behind a clump of plum trees, then quietly pushed open a corner of the window without making a sound, allowing Su Yingxue to peek through the gap and see the person inside the hall.
"Hubby!"
Su Yingxue felt a surge of emotion yet could only move her lips without daring to make a sound.
Her hand involuntarily rested on her belly as she gazed inside at the man busy with his head down, her eyes brimming with tenderness.
"It's so late, and he still hasn't rested..."
Su Yingxue sighed softly.
