Princess Shu's face suddenly paled. Tears streamed down before she even spoke. She clutched King Shu's lapels. "Prince, this is the most important ingredient in the fertility prescription from the Divine Doctor."
The expressions on both King Shu and Mo Zhirou's faces changed.
"What?" King Shu was stunned.
Princess Shu choked back sobs. "Ningning went through so much trouble to get these for me, and now they're all ruined. The locusts are ravaging everything this year, so we'll have to wait until next year. But I'll be a year older then, and it will be even harder to conceive."
At this, Princess Shu began to weep.
Bearing children had become an obsession for her. Even in her dreams, she wanted a child.
An opportunity was finally within her grasp, only to be knocked into the water by Mo Zhirou!
Now, even Mo Zhirou was panicking.
She stammered, "Mother, I-I didn't know this medicine was so important. I didn't mean to. Mother, please forgive me!"
