Good luck in pregnancy, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion has a soft waist

Near noon, an old woman in elegant clothes walked slowly into the temple to pay her respects, led by the temple abbot.

At about three quarters past noon, the lady followed the host out of the hall again.

Seeing this, Shen Muxue calmly stepped forward and bowed respectfully, saying, "My humble daughter, Shen, has something to ask you."

After recognizing the escort as a palace servant, the abbot immediately showed great respect and said gently, "Amitabha, may I ask what questions the young lady has?"

"Last night I dreamt of countless evil spirits trying to harm me. Just when I was about to get hurt, a golden dragon suddenly appeared, saving me and defeating them all. It then circled around me and flew away. When I woke up, I found my belly had swelled up as if I were pregnant."

After Shen Muxue finished speaking, she deliberately glanced at the old servant in the palace out of the corner of her eye, only to see that the other person's face changed drastically and his eyes became strange.

It worked!

If you still don't understand the meaning of such a sign, it's probably not appropriate for you to stay in front of the Queen Mother and do things.

However, the abbot simply said after hearing this: "Amitabha, the girl is just troubled by distracting thoughts. I can ask someone to chant sutras for you to clear your mind."

After saying that, he summoned a little monk to lead Shen Muxue to the side hall to listen to Buddhist teachings.

The maid in the palace said goodbye to the host and hurried to the palace.

She was the person the Empress Dowager relied on the most and was in charge of all affairs in Yixiang Palace.

She was usually a strict person, but when she entered the palace and saw the young eunuch slacking off, she just glanced at him coldly without scolding him.

The young eunuch shuddered with fear at the scrutiny and quickly straightened up to continue cleaning.

When he looked up again to find Mammy, he found that she had disappeared. So he whispered to his companion beside him, "Mammy Hu seems to be in a good mood today. She didn't stop scolding us."

Another young eunuch looked up at the sky and sighed, "This is really rare! Usually, when Madam Hu sees us slacking off, she criticizes us mercilessly."

"How could the sun rise from the west? Unless the emperor actually has his own children one day, that would be considered a miracle."

After saying this, the two of them covered their mouths and laughed secretly.

Although they were naturally infertile as eunuchs, they believed that even the emperor, who had many concubines, was unable to give birth to an heir, which was simply a sign of fate!

At this time, Madam Hu did not notice the discussions of the young eunuchs behind her.

In fact, she didn't notice them at all.

At this moment, all the nanny was thinking about was getting to the Queen Mother as soon as possible to report what happened today.

As she hurried on, the Queen Mother's calm voice came: "What frightened you and made you so anxious?"

"It's not that I'm being chased by ghosts, but because I saw a miracle," Madam Hu hurriedly came to the Queen Mother and bowed and replied.

Then she described in detail all the details that happened that day.

The Queen Mother listened carefully, clenching and unclenching her Buddhist beads several times before firmly grasping Madam Hu's hand and asking, "Do you know whose daughter this is?"

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. I have already found out that she is the eldest daughter of General Shen's mansion."

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother was silent for a moment before whispering, "She said she dreamed of holding the son of a true dragon... This clearly means she will give birth to a prince. But is it possible that this young lady is not pregnant by Your Majesty, but by King Xian'an?"

The current emperor had a deceased brother who left behind a son who was canonized as King Xian'an.

Your Majesty has been childless for many years and almost treats Prince Xian'an as his own.

The court and the people also tacitly agreed that he was the best candidate to inherit the throne in the future.

After hearing the Queen Mother's speculation, Matron Hu was slightly surprised. "Your concerns are justified. Prince Xian'an is about to have his coming-of-age ceremony, and he is indeed a perfect match for Miss Shen. If they marry, their child will naturally be of royal blood."

The Queen Mother fiddled with her rosary beads in deep thought.

In this case, the woman who seemed to be her true destiny in the dream could not be allowed to enter the palace and become the queen, otherwise she would not be able to give birth to a dragon seed.

Why not let her marry King Xian'an directly?

With the right status and position, and this magical dream as evidence, it should be a good choice.

"Send someone to select an old nanny who teaches etiquette to the Shen Mansion and educate this young lady well."

The Queen Mother slowly gave instructions.

After hearing this, Madam Hu immediately asked, "Are you planning to bring her into the harem or to arrange for her to marry Prince Xian'an?"

The Queen Mother closed her eyes and thought for a while before replying, "Let her marry Prince Xian'an first. Keep this a secret for now. Let the old maid train her for a while before making any decisions."

"As ordered."

Shen Muxue in Hongfu Temple had not yet realized that the situation had deviated from her expectations.

After listening to the pure Buddhist chants for the entire morning, she returned to the Shen Mansion with Nanny Yang, waiting for news from the Empress Dowager to take her to the palace.

Upon hearing that Shen Muxue had returned, Wang was extremely angry.

Yesterday she tried to drug Shen Muxue, but Nanny Yang who returned unexpectedly discovered the truth and fled with her.

Although she was the mistress of the house, all the servants and guards inside and outside the mansion respected Shen Muxue, the eldest daughter of the wife, very much.

This forced Wang to resort to covert means to deal with the other party.

At this moment, as Shen Muxue returned home, she didn't even dare to show her face. She had to stay in the room alone and vent her anger by smashing a set of exquisite porcelain.

The old servant beside him hurried forward to comfort her, "Madam, please calm down. There is still a long way to go."

For many years, the second wife has firmly controlled the position of head of the family. However, when she found that her own daughter was not as good-looking or talented as her elder sister's daughter, her uncontrollable jealousy finally broke out.

She felt that she had lost to her elder sister in every aspect; now her descendants were also following in her footsteps, which made Wang feel unwilling.

In any case, in order to wash away this feeling of frustration, he must find a better marriage for his daughter Shen Yuwei than Shen Muxue in the future.

Suppressing her inner anger, Wang took two sips of cold tea to calm herself down, a sneer curling her lips. "Even though the elders love their eldest daughters very much, it's a pity that they are ultimately unable to do so. Now they still need to rely on me for their livelihood."

If we fail to send Shen Muxue out this time, we will have to continue to think of ways. We must complete the plan before the general returns home. Once we succeed, everything will be over and there will be no way to reverse it.

Just as Wang was trying to think of a new plan, a maid ran into the room and reported: "Madam, something bad has happened! Someone is coming from the palace!"

Hearing this, Wang was shocked and hurried out with Liu Ma to welcome the guest.

In the center of the courtyard stood an old woman from the palace with a haughty look on her face. When she saw Wang approaching, she simply nodded slightly in symbolic greeting.

This treatment made Wang feel dizzy and angry, but she still tried her best to smile and asked, "May I ask your name? What advice do you have for me this time?"

"No need to ask any more questions, just take me to the eldest lady's residence."

The messenger replied coldly.
