This sudden discovery made Ye Chuxue surprised and happy, and for a moment she didn't know what to do.

She opened her eyes wide, her face full of disbelief, and slowly placed her slightly trembling hand on her flat belly.

Although she had successfully given birth to the lovely Ye Xiaotuan and Ye Xiaoyuan before, at this moment, the joy brought by just getting pregnant was so strange and new.

Yun Muheng looked at her nervously, only to see her standing there blankly, as if petrified, and not saying a word for a long time.

This made him, who was already a little anxious, instantly lose his composure and his heart was in his throat.

His body began to tremble involuntarily. After hesitating for a long time, he finally mustered up the courage, stretched out his hand tremblingly, and carefully hugged Ye Chuxue tightly in his arms.

His voice trembled noticeably as he asked anxiously, "Xue'er, what happened to you? No matter what happens, I will always be by your side."

At this moment, Ye Chuxue came back to her senses as if waking from a dream, and a smile as brilliant as a spring flower bloomed on her pretty face.

She gazed at Yun Muheng affectionately and said softly, "Yun Muheng, I have good news for you. You are going to be a father again."

However, Yun Muheng looked at Ye Chuxue with a bewildered expression, thinking to himself: "What's wrong with Xue'er? Is she so happy that she's lost her mind? I'm naturally aware that I'm a father."

Seeing his reaction, Ye Chuxue couldn't help but feel both angry and amused. She rolled her eyes at him helplessly and scolded him, "Humph, you're such a fool! I'm actually pregnant again, and you're about to have our third child!"

After hearing this, Yun Muheng was stunned at first, then his eyes widened and his eyeballs almost popped out.

Then, an uncontrollable ecstasy surged in his heart. He was so excited that he trembled all over and stammered, "Really? I... I'm really going to be a father again?"

Ye Chuxue raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a gentle smile. She nodded slightly and said softly, "It's true!"

Upon hearing the news, Yun Muheng was stunned at first, then a smile as bright as a spring flower bloomed on his face, followed by a hearty laugh: "Hahaha! That's great, I'm finally going to be a father!" He was so excited that he danced like a child.

As he spoke, Yun Muheng walked forward happily, and gently and carefully held Ye Chuxue in his arms.

Then, he walked slowly into the palace with steady steps.

Ye Chuxue couldn't help but tremble when she was suddenly picked up. A look of surprise instantly appeared on her face. She quickly said, "Hey, put me down quickly. I can walk by myself."

She twisted her body to break free from Yun Muheng's arms.

However, Yun Muheng was extremely stubborn, holding her tightly and refusing to let go, and responded firmly: "No, people say that women are most weak in the early stages of pregnancy, and are also the most likely to feel tired.

You've walked such a long way just now, what if you get tired out?"

As he spoke, he looked down at Ye Chuxue in his arms, his eyes full of concern and tenderness.

Upon hearing this, Ye Chuxue rolled her eyes helplessly and said with a hint of resentment, "Humph, when I was pregnant with our two children, I didn't see you being so considerate!"

Thinking of her past experiences, she felt somewhat aggrieved.

When Yun Muheng heard this, a trace of guilt flashed across his eyes. He thought to himself, "Xue'er, I'm so sorry. It was all my fault that you suffered so much. From now on, I will definitely treat you twice as well and use my whole life to make up for what I owe you!"

Thinking of this, his arms around Ye Chuxue tightened unconsciously.

The corners of Ye Chuxue's mouth curled up slightly. She reached out her hand, gently hugged Yun Muheng's neck, and slowly leaned close to his ear, "Your Highness, there's actually no need for you to apologize to me silently in your heart, because I can hear everything you're thinking clearly!"

Hearing this, Yun Muheng felt like he was struck by thunder. His body trembled violently and his steps stopped instantly.

He widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief as he said, "You...what did you just say!"

Faced with Yun Muheng's intense reaction, Ye Chuxue smiled playfully, shook her head gently and said, "Hehe, nothing... nothing!"

After she finished speaking, her beautiful face was filled with happiness and sweetness. Like a docile kitten, she snuggled up obediently in Yun Muheng's warm and generous arms.

Soon, the two arrived at the door of the imperial study.

Yun Muheng opened the door without hesitation and walked in with big strides.

The emperor, who was busy handling government affairs at the desk, looked up after hearing the sound. When his eyes fell on Yun Muheng's figure, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Heng'er, you are finally back! Hey, what happened to Xue'er? Is she injured?" His words were full of concern.

However, Yun Muheng did not rush to respond to the emperor's question. Instead, he instructed the attendant beside him, "Quickly move a chair over. Remember to put soft and comfortable cushions on it."

The servants did not dare to delay and quickly followed Yun Muheng's instructions.

Not long after, a brand new chair appeared in front of everyone, with a thick layer of cushion on the seat.

Yun Muheng carefully placed Ye Chuxue in his arms onto the chair. After making sure she was seated firmly, he turned to face the emperor and said solemnly, "Father, I know that I am too dull and incompetent to take on such a heavy responsibility as the Crown Prince. Therefore, I beg you to revoke your order."

The emperor had not expected that Yun Muheng would rush into the palace to talk about this matter. His face turned cold and he scolded him, "Nonsense! The imperial decree has been issued on this matter. How can this be treated as a joke?"

"Then you can find any excuse to replace me. I will accept any accusation!"

Lan Fei hurried in at this time, looked at Ye Chuxue sitting on the chair, and asked with a worried look on her face: "Xue'er, what happened to you? Are you injured?"

Ye Chuxue was about to stand up, but Yun Muheng held her down again: "Just sit still and don't disturb the fetus."

Ye Chuxue curled her lips: "How can I be so pretentious."

Lan Fei heard their conversation and instantly understood. Her face was filled with ecstasy and she suddenly raised her voice: "What? Xue'er is pregnant!?"

The emperor also asked in surprise: "Xue'er is pregnant? Is this true?" His voice trembled slightly, and it was obvious that he was very excited.

At this moment, Ye Chuxue, facing their blazing gazes, hesitated for a moment before gently nodding her head and responding softly, "Father, Mother, that is indeed the case.

Just now at the palace gate, I took her pulse myself and calculated that she is nearly two months pregnant."

Upon hearing this news, the emperor felt a surge of emotion, unable to contain himself. He widened his eyes, staring fiercely at Yun Muheng, and angrily said, "Such a serious matter, why didn't you report it to me earlier? You really deserve to be punished!"

"Eunuch Liu, quickly bring the soft couch. Xue'er is pregnant and her waist will get tired easily from sitting for a long time. Let her lie down and have a good rest first."

However, before Eunuch Liu could accept the order and leave, Ye Chuxue hurriedly intervened, a few dark lines flashing across her forehead as she anxiously said, "Father, you absolutely cannot do this! I am in good health and do not need such special care."

Concubine Ke Lan ignored Ye Chuxue's refusal and interrupted her, saying firmly, "How can it be useless? Now that Xue'er is pregnant with the royal heir, it is natural for her to live in the palace. I will personally take care of her daily diet and daily life, and I will ensure that nothing goes wrong."

Hearing this, Yun Muheng couldn't help but show a smug look on his face. He struck while the iron was hot and said to the emperor, "Father, this time you should finally revoke your order, right? Since Xue'er is pregnant, I will take care of her wholeheartedly. I beg Your Majesty to allow us to stay in the palace."

Unexpectedly, the emperor's face darkened, and he put on a stern, majestic face. After a moment's contemplation, he shook his head and refused resolutely, "No! My words are golden words, how can I take them back so easily? This is absolutely impossible!"
