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!"

Furthermore, Zhuang Yuexi had moved out of the Imperial Palace around this time, leading many to speculate whether she had been responsible for breaking the Phoenix Seal.

However, the news from Renshou Palace was not easily obtained, and those from the Zhuang family remained tightlipped, leaving the matter unconfirmed.

Xiao Liulang was oblivious to the palace affairs. He was just off-duty and looked rather gloomy.

It wasn't because he was being ostracized by his colleagues, or that a scholar in charge of the academy was secretly setting him up, but the sight of Liao Quan waiting by the road as soon as he left the Hanlin Academy.

"What happened?"
