The rumor about Prince Dai's inability had spread throughout the capital even before the next day.
By the early morning of the following day, every citizen in the capital knew about Prince Dai's inability to produce an heir.
The servants of the Kong Mansion naturally heard the news too.
"Uncle Jiu, I just heard something," a servant of the Kong Mansion hurriedly came to the front courtyard to find the steward.
The steward saw his grave expression, thinking something serious had happened, and quickly asked, "What happened?"
The servant whispered into the steward's ear, "I recently went to buy groceries and heard people saying Prince Dai is incapable and unable to have children, which is why he has no offspring."
"What?" The steward was shocked by this rumor.
"Uncle Jiu, everyone in the capital is talking about it now. I'm not making it up," the servant said. "Everyone's saying it with details that seem credible. Besides, Prince Dai indeed has no heirs."
