Quick Wear: The soft waist is good at getting pregnant pt.2

  The maid ran into Shoukang Palace excitedly with a letter. The empress dowager, who was arranging flowers, put the last flower in her hand into the vase after hearing it, and looked up at the palace maid who ran in from outside the palace.

  "Empress Dowager, there is a letter from Jiangnan!"

  The palace maid ran in from outside the palace with the letter in both hands. The empress dowager sat on the armchair with a kind look and looked in the direction of the sound.

  When the palace maid came into the palace, the nanny beside her took two steps forward and took the letter from her hand, bowed and handed it to the empress dowager.

  After seeing the handwriting on the envelope, the empress dowager's eyes wrinkled a little deeper.

  There has been nothing going on in the palace recently. Since Shen Tingsi went to Jiangnan for a secret tour, there has only been one correspondence between him and the empress dowager. The empress dowager just received a reply from Shen Tingsi half a month ago, and was very surprised by this sudden letter.

  The Queen Mother opened the letter in her hand with surprise. Every time Shen Tingsi sent a letter, it was short and concise. He picked up the important content and talked about the other things.

  But this time was different. This time the letter was full of writing.

  The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows and calmed down to read the contents of the letter. Shen Tingsi rarely told the Queen Mother about the interesting things that happened after he went to Jiangnan. The Queen Mother read it with relish, as if she was also in it. Shen Tingsi told the Queen

  Mother about the current situation in Jiangnan, and the Queen Mother imagined the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan at this time based on the content of the letter.

  At first, the Queen Mother's mouth corners rose slightly, and then when she saw the next line, her eyes widened!

  There was only this sentence written on the letter-

  I met a woman, and I was shocked and happy when I first saw her, and I was also excited after a long time. If I am lucky enough to capture her heart, I will only choose this good man in this life. The

  Queen Mother read it word by word over and over again, staring at the old nanny beside her with disbelief.

  "Madame Gui, you, you look at what's written here!"

  The Queen Mother rubbed her eyes. She was always calm and composed, but this was the first time she lost her composure in front of the palace maids.

  Upon hearing this, Madame Gui, who was standing by, quickly bent over to the letter and glanced at the line of words the Queen Mother pointed at.

  "Your Majesty, your Majesty, he, he, he!"

  The shock on Madame Gui's face after seeing the contents of the letter was exactly the same as that of the Queen Mother!
  Madame Gui widened her eyes and took a long time to calm down. Under the gaze of the Queen Mother, she said excitedly: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, your Majesty has a favorite girl!"

  "Really?"

  Although the Queen Mother had read the contents of the letter several times, she couldn't help but show surprise when she heard Madame Gui say it herself, and asked again.

  Madame Gui smiled and nodded: "It's true! Your Majesty, your Majesty has a favorite girl!"

  "Okay, okay! Okay!"

  The Queen Mother nodded heavily and laughed so hard that her eyes disappeared.

  The Queen Mother continued to look down at the letter in her hand, reading the sentence over and over again, and her eyes were red with laughter.

  Seeing this, Aunt Gui quickly handed the Queen Mother a plain handkerchief: "Queen Mother, this is great news, why are you crying?"

  "I'm happy, I'm happy!"

  The Queen Mother took the handkerchief with a smile and wiped the moisture from her eyes.

  Shen Tingsi suffered from misogyny and would not allow any woman except the Queen Mother to approach him. No matter whether it was a palace maid or a lady from a noble family, he would feel disgusted and annoyed if they were in front of him.   

  Therefore, all the eunuchs and guards served Shen Tingsi. Wherever Shen Tingsi appeared, the palace maids would consciously stay away.

  Shen Tingsi had this problem since he was a child, but the symptoms became more and more obvious as he grew older.

  Because of his hatred of women, Shen Tingsi's harem was still empty five years after he came to power, without even concubines, let alone offspring. Both

  the imperial physician and the divine doctor Su were helpless with Shen Tingsi's misogyny, but they had to force it. Although the queen mother didn't say it, it had always been a big worry in her heart. Since

  seeking medical treatment didn't work, the queen mother had to put her hope in the gods and Buddhas. She had been fasting and chanting Buddha for many years, praying that Shen Tingsi's strange disease would recover soon.

  But after so many years, Shen Tingsi's symptoms of hating women had not improved at all. Gradually, the queen mother no longer had much hope for this matter. She thought that when the time was right, she would discuss with Shen Tingsi to adopt a child from the side line to cultivate as the crown prince.

  But at this moment, Shen Tingsi sent a letter saying that he had found the woman he liked. How could the queen mother not be excited? How could she not be moved?
  The queen mother wiped her wet eyes and continued to look at the letter in her hand.

  Since he was sure of his feelings, Shen Tingsi wrote this letter. In the letter, he explained his feelings for Jiang Li and her identity clearly without hiding anything. After

  learning that Jiang Li was originally Zhou Qingyuan's wife, the queen mother was stunned for a moment, but it only took a moment to recover.

  The queen mother's face was still kind, and there was no change because of Jiang Li's identity.

  As long as Ah Si and the girl were in love, she had no objection.

  After reading the letter in her hand, the queen mother held the letter with both hands and put it on her chest, with a grateful face: "Thank you Bodhisattva Buddha for your grace, thank you Bodhisattva Buddha for your grace!"

  "Gui Mama, go to the ancestral hall and burn three incense sticks to repay the vows for the Buddha and Bodhisattva!"

  "Hey! I'll go right away!"

  Gui Mama smiled and agreed. Just as she was about to turn around and go to the ancestral hall, the queen mother suddenly called her.

  "Forget it, I'll go myself!"

  The Queen Mother said as she stood up from her seat. Seeing this, the palace maids hurried forward to support her: "Queen Mother, please go slowly."

  "For things like fulfilling a wish, I have to come in person."

  The Queen Mother smiled and stood up from her seat, holding the letter tightly in her hand.

  Aunt Gui stepped aside and supported her arm, then smiled and said: "Now that your majesty has a girl he likes, the Queen Mother has finally fulfilled a wish!"

  "Yes, this matter has been weighing on my mind for so many years, and now I can finally let it go."

  The Queen Mother sighed with a kind face, and suddenly stopped where she was, and clenched the Buddhist beads in her hand with an anxious look.

  "Si'er is really something. He only said that he liked someone, but he didn't even tell me the girl's name. When they come back, I can't even call out the girl's name. How impolite?" The Queen Mother thought about

  it and became more and more entangled with this matter. She wished she could send a letter back for Shen Tingsi to ask him the girl's name.

  Nanny Gui comforted her, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. The girl won't bother you about this. Since His Majesty didn't mention it in the letter, why don't you ask her in person when they get here?"

  Seeing that the Queen Mother was still hesitant, Nanny Gui said, "Besides, the letter was delivered to Your Majesty today. Maybe Your Majesty is already on his way back with the girl. Besides, it only takes more than a month to get from Jiangnan to the imperial city. There's no need to rush."

  ​​After hearing Nanny Gui's words, the Queen Mother nodded thoughtfully, "Yes, look at my brain. It's getting confused as I get older!"

  "By the way, this is the first time I'm meeting that girl, so I have to prepare some gifts for her. What do you think I should prepare?"
