[Blurb]
The Zhou family had produced empresses for generations, and Zhou Yu also thought she would marry her childhood sweetheart, Crown Prince Yuan Ji, and ascend the throne as empress, enjoying supreme honor.
Unexpectedly, Crown Prince Yuan Ji died on the battlefield while saving the people of an isolated city. His body was never found.
To protect itself, the Zhou family arranged for her to marry the chancellor's son.
After the wedding, her husband, Gao Ze, treated her wonderfully. Even though she still thought of her old love, she was gradually moved by his thoughtfulness and care.
One day, when Zhou Yu felt unwell, she called for a physician and learned she was pregnant.
They had been married for only two months, yet the baby in her belly was already more than three months along...
Meanwhile, Crown Prince Yuan Ji, who was supposedly killed in battle, led an army of a hundred thousand to drive back the Xiongnu. Only then did everyone learn that it had all been part of His Highness's plan.
At the victory banquet, Zhou Yu deliberately avoided Yuan Ji. Their past affection was gone, and now she was another man's wife.
Under the deep night sky, Yuan Ji cornered her in the imperial garden. His gaze fell on Zhou Yu's rounded belly, and he sneered. "My lady is truly blessed. Married for only a few months, and already pregnant."
His eyes darkened as he reached out to touch her belly.
"Still, looking at it, that belly seems a little too big..."
