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!"

A sudden jolt in Marquis Zhuang's heart!

Announcing it in public, wouldn't it let all the officials, the whole world know about Zhuang Yuheng's failure in integrity?

By then, Zhuang Yuheng's good reputation of nearly twenty years would be ruined overnight.

Not everyone can stand at the peak of power with a notorious reputation, only Marquis Xuanping is an exception amongst the six countries. Zhuang Yuheng still cares about face, or rather, the Zhuang Family does.

The Emperor didn't say it clearly yet, but the civil and military officials have already started to whisper, even Marquis Zhuang felt their gazes had changed.

Marquis Zhuang dared not disagree any longer, he knelt and uttered painfully and humbly, "I...thank his Majesty for his grace!"

After the court was dismissed, Marquis Zhuang stopped the Empress Dowager's palanquin.
