After meeting at the door, they went back to their respective rooms.

Gu Moyan went back to her room and continued to look at the painting she had taken back from Ximen Qingfeng yesterday.

A few carp jumped into the water, causing a few stalks of water to splash onto the tilted lotus leaves. A drop of water hung on the sharp end, but did not drip into the lake. It was like a scene of a person standing by a lake, frozen from afar. Qing Yi seemed to be merging with the lotus leaves.

He even recorded the emotions in Gu Mo Yan's eyes in a painting. It was as if only Ximen Qingfeng could see them, floating as though they had left their own world.

Even though Gu Moyan had seen it many times, it was still true.

Gu Mo Yan thought for a while. He didn't want to bury the painting in the cupboard anymore. He wanted to look at it, so he pushed the door open to look for Zi Ye.

"Child..." "Ye-zi." When Gu Moyan first knocked on the door, no one answered. He thought he was in the inner room, so he reached out and pushed it open. However, the scene in front of him made him extremely shocked.

The slightly protruding belly of the cotton-leaf was revealed even before the clothes were closed. His hand was still on the belly, gently massaging it, looking just like a pregnant woman.

"Empress!" Zi Ye seemed to have come back to his senses. He quickly put on the clothes on the table and quickly closed it. After doing everything, it resounded. The Empress had already seen it, so there was no use in concealing it. Then, with a bitter smile, he said, "The Empress has seen it all. It's exactly what you think."

"Men can get pregnant too?" Gu Moyan's eyes widened slightly. Her eyes were already big to begin with, but now, they looked even more ferocious. He was still in the same position as when he pushed the door open. He was so shocked that he didn't have the ability to make the next move.

"Does the Empress not know?" Hearing the Empress ask this, Zi Ye heaved a sigh of relief. It was a matter of life and death if the servant became pregnant before they were even married. It seemed like the Empress had no intention of blaming him, but he seemed rather ignorant for asking such a question. It was likely that the Emperor had never told him before.

Zi Ye walked up to Gu Mo Yan and pulled him to the table. He then asked doubtfully, "There are only men here. Is there any other way to have children?"

Gu Moyan was stunned. She didn't even know what to say next. What did men mean? No wonder, no wonder the last time he went to a banquet, there wasn't even a girl that came out. He thought this was an era where men were superior to women, no wonder even the imperial concubines hadn't seen a single female one.

Gu Moyan naturally couldn't say something only a woman could say when she was pregnant. She hesitated for a moment before asking, "Then what about Zi Ye's father?" He had not seen anyone in the Clear Stream Restaurant who had a close relationship with Zi Ye.

"He, he is the palace's captain, Wu Qi." Zi Ye's face turned red, as if he had just woken up. He then rubbed his stomach. Ever since he got pregnant, he had unconsciously done this.

"Does the emperor know about this?" Seeing his happy appearance, Gu Moyan was also reluctant to beat him up and pointed out the most important matter.

"Over-Overlord." Zi Ye's face instantly turned pale and he tightened his grip on his clothes. The sudden rise and fall of his emotions triggered the small life in his stomach.

"Pain …" Zi Ye bit his lips and said sorrowfully.

"You go to bed first." One look was all it took to tell that this Ye Zi was pregnant without telling anyone else. What should they do then?

Gu Moyan laid Zi Ye down on the bed and told him to rest well before heading back to his room.
