"——The Second Young Lady and the King have never had children," Susan said.
Andrew was dumbfounded and wondered why this topic suddenly came up.
Susan repeated emphatically, "The Second Young Lady married into the Royal Court years ago, yet she has never conceived a child of the King's."
Andrew's heart stirred, and he suddenly recalled the "homework" he did on the way to the negotiations, especially the part about why Catherine married the King back then.
It was, of course, a political marriage. Not excluding the factor of love, but overall, it was primarily a political union.
On the side of the Warm Fire Commerce Association, through the union of the Second Young Lady and the King, they drew the Royal Court, originally taking a neutral stance between the east and west, to their side.
Conversely, the Royal Court also had demands in that union.
That is: the King needed to pass on his bloodline, he needed a child!
