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 consultation fee isn't cheap," Gu Jiao declared.

Prince Ning probably hadn't expected Gu Jiao to react this way, as normally adults would feel so honored to be asked to visit the prince's mansion for medical treatment, they'd hate to even charge a consultation fee. Caught off guard, he wasn't sure how to respond.

A moment later, he couldn't help but say with a chuckle, "That's only to be expected."

Gu Jiao stated, "When I have time, I'll send someone to deliver a note to the prince's mansion."

Prince Ning smiled, "Then that's settled. I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."

After Prince Ning had left, Gu Jiao rose from the swing and made her way to her aunt's study room.

Empress Dowager Zhuang was reading a document. Upon seeing Gu Jiao enter, she humphed disapprovingly.

This was typical of her aunt, so Gu Jiao didn't feel she had done anything outrageously wrong. She approached and handed Xue Ningxiang's letter to her aunt.
