Sitting not far from the Empress Dowager now is the current Emperor of Nanming, Chu Jiangnan.
He nodded and said, "It is indeed said to be a young lady."
"What kind of young lady has medical skills that surpass all the Imperial Physicians?"
The Empress Dowager, seemingly afflicted by a syndrome of urgency for marriage, gets especially excited upon hearing the word "young lady."
Any young lady would do, as long as she has something special that could make her son take another look—that would be good!
"Which family's young lady is she? What is her age? Is she married?"
Ah, even if she is married, it doesn't matter; if the young lady is willing, she can accept her even if she's already a wife.
It's always better than having nothing at all.
As a mother, she has humbled herself to this level for her son's marriage and lineage.
"Your Majesty, which family's young lady is it? Does your mother know her?"
How could Chu Jiangnan not understand his mother's thoughts?
