”Three years? ”Then Master's meaning is …” Shui Qinan had already guessed one or two things, and asked while pretending to not know anything.

”According to my knowledge, the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess came here for a pill that could double the fertility rate and help you get pregnant faster.” The fourth elder stroked his beard and looked at the disciple in front of him.

”So that's how it is!” Shui Qinan was silent. Amongst the royal descendants of this continent, it was rare to see someone who brought a legal wife to beg for his son's help. Most of the men were women, giving birth to a child extremely easy. ”Crown Prince, this is …”

The Fourth Elder didn't answer, but continued, ”And the younger brother of the Crown Princess' consort, the Crown Prince's wife, is already five months pregnant.”

”Your Highness has an heir? The imperial inheritance does not seem to be closely related to it. ” Shui Yannan did not understand. The two made sense, but he felt that the logic behind it was incomplete.

”This is because …” Just as the Fourth Elder opened his mouth, he saw the calmness in Shui Qinan's eyes. This disciple of her … ”I'm not wrong!” This is related to a prophecy from back then! ”

”Prophecy?” What kind of prophecy would cause the current crown prince to be afraid of his younger brother's child, and so he hastily ran over to beg for his son's help. Shui Qinan was a little doubtful …

”There was a prophecy left behind that year that said the first grandson of the Huizheng Kingdom would be able to revitalize this nation and lead it onto the path of prosperity.” The fourth elder explained to her patiently.

”Coincidentally, the Crown Princess didn't have any children, so the King's son was the first child of the royal family. According to the prophecy tied together, this first child should be related to the prophecy.” Shui Qinan analyzed the logic behind it and said indifferently.

”You're really smart, Nan. You are!” ”The Fourth Elder looked at his disciple admiringly.” Thus, the Emperor of Huizheng Kingdom made a promise that the first grandson of the royal family, regardless of whether or not he was born the crown prince, would pass the throne down to him! ”

”Thus, the Crown Prince thought of coming to our Holy Medicinal Pavilion to get some pellets so that he could inherit the throne.” Since the plans of the continent were to use their children, Shui Qinan could not help but feel helpless.

Inside the room, Shui Qinan was sitting inside as she flipped through some books that were wrapped in yellow paper. A knock on the door broke the silence in the room.

”Senior Sister, Old Pavilion Master will send you over.” The girl in white with a sword in her eyes respectfully said.

”Got it, I'll be there soon.” Shui Qinan turned her head and looked at the little junior at the door, ”You can go down first.”

She tidied up the books on the table, put them back in their original place and left.

Inside the palace, Hua Jiao knelt on the ground with both knees, with a wronged look on his face as he looked at his Master and Fourth Elder, ”Fourth Elder, Hua Jiao knows his wrongs, Hua Jiao was completely befuddled!”

”Hua Jiao, since you have made a mistake, you must take responsibility.” Shui Qinan stood at the side and looked coldly at Hua Jiao. A man had to have the courage to face the mistake he had committed, otherwise, he wouldn't be a man in the first place.

”Nanqi... ”You!” Hua Jiao glared at Shui Yannan fiercely, his words choked in his throat. Damn you, Nanqi, I will never forget today's grudge!

”Enough, stop arguing,” Old Pavilion Master's loud voice resounded, instantly spreading throughout the entire hall as he looked at the two disciples who were kneeling on the ground. This matter has already investigated the conspiracy of Hua Jiao and the Sixth Elder to poison my Holy Medicinal Pavilion's Fourth Elder and disciple, Nan Qi. The evidence is conclusive, and from today onwards, Hua Jiao will be expelled from my Holy Medicinal Pavilion.

”Hua Jiao, Holy Medicinal Pavilion has its own laws!” The Second Elder looked coldly at the person who had poisoned his Master.
