The Prime Minister’s Darling

She was supposed to be a lady of the Marquis' mansion but became a farmer's daughter due to a mix-up at birth. After painstakingly growing up into a beautiful and graceful lady, nobody came to propose to her. Many said she was ugly and mentally challenged or a cursed child who brought misfortune to her parents. But her husband, whom she picked up along the way, was actually the future Prime Minister. The little monk she adopted on the mountain was one of the six Divine Generals. Even the old lady she rescued without much thought turned out to be the current Empress. A certain man said fiercely, "Dear, I'll deal with anyone who dares to bully you!" The Divine General said, "Sister, just tell me whichever territory of the six kingdoms you want. I'll conquer it for you!" The Empress said, "The Emperor bullied my darling? Just wait! I'll depose him right away!"

162 Overwhelming Power (First Update)

On the other side, Gu Changqing led his horse, escorting Gu Jiao back to Bishui Alley.

He couldn't figure out why the Capital City's infamous thief, Fei Shuang, would know Gu Jiao. Perhaps Gu Jiao was overthinking it.

Fei Shuang always stole valuables, either treasures or state secrets. The most valuable item in Gu Jiao's small basket was just a tiny first aid kit.

Even if it was filled with premium medicinal herbs, it wouldn't pique Fei Shuang's interest, would it?

Could it be that she was really after Gu Jiao herself?

But Gu Changqing didn't believe there was anything suspicious about Gu Jiao.

Or maybe... Fei Shuang was actually targeting the Marquis Residence instead?

"We're here," Gu Jiao's voice interrupted Gu Changqing's thoughts.

Gu Changqing looked towards the mansion behind Gu Jiao. It was a smaller place than his own courtyard, but it radiated a unique aura. He couldn't quite place what was different about it, but it was somehow inviting.
