The Emperor rushed back to Canglan Court ahead of everyone, imagining countless scenarios along the way, but never did he expect this one. By the time he arrived in a hurry at the West Side Hall, everyone he encountered beamed with smiles, bowing deeply and congratulating him.
Ignoring these voices, he anxiously opened the doors of the West Side Hall's birthing room, bypassed the screen and went inside. The room still had a faint scent of childbirth mixed with a strong aroma of food. Without thinking, he hurried inside and was greeted by this scene:
His Little Empress had her hair simply tied back, with a headband across her forehead, wearing a soft and loose robe. She was sitting on the birthing bed, slurping noodles with a look of pure bliss, praising Pang Ya for making delicious noodles. Her mother-in-law was smiling by her side.
Besides that faint scent, there wasn't a trace of childbirth visible in the room.
