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!"

252 Palace Examination (two combined into one)

This situation caught everyone off guard, even the crown princess hesitated momentarily. The moment the bookshelf collapsed, she instinctively stepped forward, trying to dodge the impending disaster.

However, the room was so narrow that taking a few steps forward almost made her bump into Xiao Liulang.

Xiao Liulang heard the noise first, informed of someone's entrance, then the bookshelf fell and blocked the door. The room had no oil lamp or windows, once the door was closed, the room rapidly plunged into the depths of darkness.

Without seeing the intruder, he simply obeyed the instinct to avoid strangers, stepping backwards and pressing himself almost against the wall.

Xiao Liulang's aversion to strangers wasn't recent. Since the time Fen Lin knew him, he found that Xiao was a man with a severe social aversion, but Fen Lin always opportunistically tried to get close despite his unsociability.
