The emperor, Zhou Zhao, was even more surprised, but then he smiled. In his opinion, Zhou Heng should not have had any favorites at all. It was good to break this open now.

After all, Su Xiaoling was born as a farmer's daughter. The people she saw when she was young were not from rich families. She might not know what it meant to be magnanimous. No matter what, this child was already an imperial grandson. With this breakthrough, there would be more imperial grandsons in the future.

Of course, Zhou Zhao also wanted to intimidate Su Xiaoling, so he gave the order and rewarded Sindili to express his concern.

The news spread very quickly. It could be said that most people knew, but Zhou Heng did not.

Zhou Heng had a lot of work to deal with. In the afternoon, it was Lord Zhao and Lord Li from the Ministry of Justice who came to report the progress of their work.

After the two adults reported some reorganization of the Ministry of Justice, Zhou Heng waved his hand. "I understand. You can leave."

Lord Zhao and Lord Li looked at each other and did not leave immediately. They thought of what they had heard just now and looked at each other. In the end, they decided to congratulate Zhou Heng first.

The two of them cupped their hands and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty."

Zhou Heng looked up in confusion. "For what?"

Zhou Heng was at a loss and felt puzzled.

He looked at Lord Zhao and Lord Li with smiles on their faces. Zhou Heng was even more puzzled.

"Your Majesty, your concubine is more than a month pregnant. After the two little imperial grandsons, Your Majesty is going to have another child." Lord Zhao and Lord Li said slowly.

When Zhou Heng heard this, he felt his vision go black. He was in a daze. He stood up in shock and looked at the two adults. "Who did you say is pregnant? Secondary consort Sindili??"

"Your Majesty is worried about the country, so it's normal for you not to know."

Lord Zhao and Lord Li were both a little surprised. The Crown Prince did not look happy.

Therefore, both of them lowered their voices.

"You may leave."

Zhou Heng's voice was cold.

When Lord Zhao and Lord Li saw this, they did not say anything else and retreated respectfully.

Even though they were sighing in their hearts, they did not dare to make wild guesses at this moment. It was already good enough that the Crown Prince did not vent his anger on them.

After the two adults left, Zhou Heng couldn't help but tremble.

How was that possible? He and Sindili were not husband and wife at all. How could Sindili be pregnant?

Zhou Heng felt thunder rumble in his heart.

He hung his head and braced his arms on either side of the table, his hands clenched into fists.

If even Lord Zhao and Lord Li knew, who in the imperial court didn't know?

What about Xiaoling? What did she think? What did she think of him?

Zhou Heng's heart ached. Anger and hatred surged in his heart. He thought that Sindili had dispelled this thought. He did not agree with her. He thought that they could part on good terms.

He no longer wanted to think about who the child belonged to.

He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down and strode away from the table.
