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!"

The servants in the Huaqing Palace didn't dare to let Qin Chuyu eat anything carelessly.

Empress Xiao looked at the emperor, who seemed even more perplexed than her, clearly implying he hadn't fed Qin Chuyu either.

That just left one person.

Empress Xiao bit her lip and walked over to the bed. Without a word, she held her son, tormented by stomachache, in her arms.

The emperor massaged his temples, sighing helplessly.

By the time the emperor returned to Huaqing Palace, it was already late. Qin Chuyu had fussed half the night before falling asleep in Empress Xiao's arms, his body still twitching even as he slept, mumbling "father-king, don't punish your servant, I know I was wrong".

Watching this, tears fell from Empress Xiao's eyes.

"Watch your step, Your Majesty," Eunuch Wei warned, holding a lantern.

The emperor paused and lifted the curtain to climb the stairs.
