章 453: Chapter 452: Rejection!_1

"That year, I returned to my hometown to mourn the death of a family member. Later, after being summoned by an Imperial Decree, just after the New Year, I had to rush back to the Capital City. On the way, I was pursued by a gang of villains."

Liu Zikang quickly narrated the past events, "I led my men to divert the pursuers and let my wife escape in a carriage with our twin daughters who were just one-month-old. My wife managed to escape! But because of the urgent situation and it being a pitch-dark windy night, we didn't notice that one of the infants was missing from the carriage … "

Afterwards, although aware that the infant might have been lost on the way, Liu Zikang, under the burden of the Imperial Decree, had to rush to the Capital City.

In the following years, the situation in the Capital City was rather complicated and he never had the chance to investigate.

"My wife nearly cried her eyes blind over this matter and fell sick due to the grief at such a young age."
