Widowed for Five Years, the Widow is Pregnant with the Emperor’s Child

【The Stunning Widow vs. The Domineering Emperor】

【Non-Virgin Leads + Taboo Tension + Raising a Child + Late-Life Passion】

In the capital, everyone knew that the Yun family's eldest daughter and the Third Young Master Lu shared a loving and harmonious marriage.

Yet fate was cruel—Young Master Lu, blessed with neither fortune nor longevity, succumbed to illness before reaching adulthood, leaving behind his beautiful widow and their unborn child.

Yun Wan carried a secret, buried deep in her heart for five years, one she dared not reveal to a soul.

For five years, each time she gazed at her son—whose features grew ever more reminiscent of that man—her heart trembled with dread.

She guarded the secret with utmost care, but paper cannot wrap fire. After her son became the Third Prince's study companion, events spiraled beyond control.

In the end, the truth came to light.

The palace servants knew well that since his ascension, the Emperor had suffered from chronic headaches—a decade-long affliction that drove him to bloodshed during fits, leaving the court in perpetual fear.

Yet after a certain day, the Emperor's headaches ceased. He began carrying a handkerchief, though none knew why.

No one was aware that Emperor Jingxuan had long sought the owner of that handkerchief. When he finally found her, she denied everything.

Then the woman's son arrived. Staring at the child—whose eyes mirrored his own—the Emperor laughed in cold fury.

Yet before the stunned crowd, the sovereign of Great Qi—who held the power of life and death over the realm—bent down, swept A-Sui into his arms, and murmured tenderly:

"Be good now. Call me Father."
