In the early morning of the second day, the sun penetrated the clouds and sprinkled mottled green bricks on the cold palace.

Countless butterflies seemed to be attracted by some mysterious force, flying through the high palace walls and pouring into the cold palace.

"Miss, what are you going to eat today? Caiwei and I picked some fresh wild vegetables in the back." Pearl ran in and said.

"Pearl, don't eat it yet." Shen Nianshu stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the flying butterflies.

Pearl and Caiwei looked at each other.

Shen Nianshu took a deep breath and continued, "You two go and put away all our things before others find out. Also, remember what I told you last time..."

As night fell, Shen Nianshu's heart became tense.

She stood quietly by the window, her eyes showing anticipation and nervousness.

Suddenly, a slight noise came from the door, and she smiled slightly, knowing that it was probably him.

Pearl, Caiwei and Shen Nianshuo looked at each other.

"Mother, you'd better go to bed early. I haven't eaten much in the past few days. If this continues, you can't stand it, and the child in your belly can't stand it either..."

"It's okay. I'm fine. I just hope that the emperor will be well."

Outside the door, someone was obviously approaching. Shen Nianshu's heartbeat also accelerated. She felt her palms were slightly sweaty, but she forced herself to stay calm.

At this moment, the door was gently pushed open, and a familiar figure appeared at the door.

"Shu'er..."

The man's deep voice seemed to be filled with endless longing and tenderness.

He walked towards her step by step, the moonlight shining in his deep eyes, reflecting her surprised and expectant face.

His palm gently touched her cheek, and his fingertips conveyed a slight tremor, which was the excitement deep in his heart.

"Are you okay..." he whispered, his voice revealing deep self-blame and regret.

Tears flashed in Shen Nianshu's eyes, she knew this moment.

"Your Majesty, why did you come to a place like this?"

The people around him retreated with eyes.

Shen Nianshu wanted to retreat, but was hugged tightly by him.

She felt the rise and fall of his chest, which was his intense heartbeat.

" Shu'er , did you just talk about children? Do you have..."

" Shu'er , it's my fault. I shouldn't have put you in this cold palace and made you suffer." His voice was trembling, as if he was trying to control his emotions.

Shen Nianshu closed her eyes, tears falling down the corners of her eyes.

"Your Majesty..." She called his name softly, her voice full of tenderness and dependence.

He held her hand tightly, as if to integrate her into his body.

At this moment, they seemed to have returned to the moment when they first met, and their hearts were filled with longing and expectations for the future.

The moonlight was like water, and the atmosphere in the cold palace seemed to be infected by this gentle moonlight and became softer. Shen Nianshu nestled in the emperor's arms, feeling his strong heartbeat and warm embrace, as if all the suffering and waiting were released at this moment.

Bai Nanyu looked down at her, his eyes full of tenderness and guilt. He gently stroked her cheek and said softly, " Shu'er , it's my fault that I have made you suffer so much. I will never let you suffer any grievance again."

Shen Nianshu raised her head, with tears in her eyes, and she said softly, "Your Majesty, I am not wronged. As long as you can do well, I will be satisfied."

Bai Nanyu 's voice revealed deep surprise and expectation. He stared closely into Shen Nianshu's eyes, as if he wanted to look deep into her heart.

" Shu'er , what you said...is true?"

Shen Nianshu nodded shyly, with a blush on her face. She gently caressed her belly, where their shared life was gestating.

Bai Nanyu held her hand excitedly, his eyes flashing with excitement. He squatted down and put his ear against Shen Nianshu's belly, trying to listen to the faint sound of life.

"Child... our child..." He murmured in a low voice , his eyes full of love and expectation.

Shen Nianshu looked at him, her heart filled with happiness and satisfaction. She knew that no matter how many difficulties and obstacles there were in the future, as long as they faced them together, they would be able to overcome them and embrace a better future.

The moonlight shines through the clouds and dapples the green bricks of the cold palace, adding a mysterious and soft atmosphere to this quiet place.

Shen Nianshu leaned in Bai Nanyu 's arms, her cheek pressed against his chest.

Bai Nanyu looked down at the woman in his arms, his eyes filled with distress and remorse.

He gently touched her cheek and found that she was much thinner than before, as if a gust of wind could blow her down.

"Why have you lost so much weight?" His voice trembled slightly, revealing endless worry in his tone.

Shen Nianshu raised her head and met his affectionate gaze, with a flash of tears in her eyes. She gently held his hand and said softly, "Your Majesty, I am fine. I am a guilty person and I deserve one meal a day."

Under the moonlight, Shen Nianshu's makeup looked increasingly pale, like a white lotus that was about to wither.

Bai Nanyu 's heart suddenly twitched, and he held Shen Nianshu's hand tightly, with a flash of anger in his eyes.

"Eunuch Fu, come in!"

Shen Nianshu was slightly stunned, looking at Bai Nanyu 's angry eyes, a warm current surged in her heart.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and then, Eunuch Fu pushed the door open and entered with a trace of surprise and confusion on his face.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

" What's going on with Concubine Shu's three meals a day? Go check it out for me!"

Bai Nanyu 's voice was cold and majestic, like the north wind in the cold winter, making people shudder. Eunuch Fu suddenly felt a chill coming over him. He lowered his head and lowered his eyes, not daring to show any signs of neglect.

"Yes, Your Majesty." He responded respectfully, turned around and left in a hurry.

Shen Nianshu looked at Eunuch Fu's leaving figure.

Bai Nanyu looked back at Shen Nianshu, his eyes full of tenderness and determination. He gently held her hand and whispered, " Shu'er , don't worry, I will definitely find out about this matter. I will not let you suffer any further grievances."

The moonlight gradually faded and the night deepened.

Shen Nianshu leaned in the emperor's arms, feeling his strong heartbeat and warm embrace, as if the whole world had stopped.

"You should go to bed first. I have something to do and will come see you tomorrow." The emperor gently stroked her cheek, his eyes full of tenderness and reluctance.

Shen Nianshu nodded slightly. She knew that the emperor had many things to do and could not always stay with her. She closed her eyes gently, feeling the emperor's breath gradually fade away.

The emperor stood up and turned towards the door. He looked back at Shen Nianshu.

"Tomorrow I will send the imperial doctor to take a look at you."

Shen Nianshu's heart trembled slightly.

The scene changes. Early the next morning, the sun shines through the window on Shen Nianshu's face, waking her up from her sleep.
