He was in a hurry to take Heng'er away from the room. Heng'er was still a child, and as soon as he heard that others were interested in his affairs, he immediately forgot about what had just happened.

"Okay, okay! I'll tell you all about it, Jingyu-gege. It's really interesting!"

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief after the two left the room.

"Brother, I will never break my promise to you! Heng'er is young and must have miscalculated. Please rest assured, brother."

Gu Jiangli replied, "Heng'er's divination is never wrong. He predicted that I was pregnant, and I really was pregnant. He predicted that it would be a daughter, and the birth of my second sister proved that what he said was true."

The implication is that if Heng'er foresaw that he would have three children in the future, then he would definitely have three children in the future.

As a result, the emperor's face turned even paler, and sweat almost broke out on his forehead.

"But I...I've already signed the decree! I've also decided never to marry in this life, I can't have children."

The prince seemed to let out a long sigh: "Your Majesty, you don't need to be so nervous. I know that the matter of having offspring is predestined, and no amount of interference from others can help."

His gaze fell on Gu Jiangli.

He once thought he would never have a child again, but God still sent him Gu Jiangli, didn't He?

The emperor couldn't discern the prince's emotions in his words; he only saw the tenderness in his eyes for the princess.

“Brother… I am not suited to be emperor. In terms of talent, five-year-old Heng’er is already far superior to me. After I abdicate, it is impossible for me to take his place. Even if I have descendants, they will never go against my wishes and do anything to harm Heng’er! I swear!”

The prince's eyes were calm as still water, while Gu Jiangli wore a faint smile.

There was no hint of blame in either of their expressions.

"That's enough," the prince said. "If it's fate, I won't interfere. Just pretend Heng'er never said those words. Go back and resolve the pharmacy issue first."

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief. "Very well, I will return to the palace immediately to resolve this matter. It seems that soon I will be able to get rid of this heavy burden."

Once he abdicates, he can stop being the emperor and become an ordinary person.
