"So in this way, you are getting fair treatment. Now the arrangement has been made, with Huailing taking the first position and you the second. It is fine if you are a bit late, as long as you have enough girls."
"…"
"I don't have many children, just a few of you. That is a great pity. You should work hard too, so that you can have abundant children too," the King said.
Well… he was saying these specially for Zhou Huailing.
He had always believed that Zhou Huailing should be the heir, and he was the second eldest son apart from the eldest son. He got married very early but he had not fathered any sons, so he was urging him.
However, Zhou Huailing felt a little annoyed. He had thought that it was Gu Ruxue's problem that he never had any children, but none of his wives or concubines had ever gotten pregnant.
That was something that confused him.
When the King mentioned that, he found the whole thing bothersome.
