Li Chengjing couldn’t help pacing back and forth. He was the Crown Prince, the Emperor’s eldest di son. His children were naturally also the direct heirs to the throne. If Cheng Yujin gave birth to a pair of daughters, it was a good omen worthy for the whole country to celebrate. But in the case of sons…

When the eldest di sons were twins, it would bring chaos to the matter of the succession, which was a great taboo.

Within the imperial palace, the most common solution to this situation was to kill the twins before they were born. For the imperial family, they would rather kill one million by mistake than let one go.

It was, after all, his first child. If only he already had the eldest di son, then having twins wouldn’t be a problem.

Fate was too cruel.

Li Chengjing couldn’t help but sigh. Fate was always like this to him. When he thought that the long road had ended and he finally had his own home, fate would step in and tell him that everything was just an illusion.

Li Chengjing stood with his hands behind his back for a long time, thinking furiously. Imperial Physician Zhao kept staring at the floor, too afraid to even utter a word. After a while, Li Chengjing turned to Imperial Physician Zhao and said: “Gu understands. You should step back now.”

Imperial Physician Zhao bowed and slowly retreated. When he finally reached the door, Imperial Physician Zhao was just about to sigh in relief when he suddenly heard Crown Prince say, “If today’s matter is leaked outside, you will be the one Gu holds accountable.”

Imperial Physician Zhao’s heart thumped, and he hurriedly knelt down in response.
