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 Emperor had no idea what the so-called "black pills" and "white pills" looked like, so he had no choice but to have the Dragon Shadow Guard bring all the medicines.

He also instructed the Dragon Shadow Guard not to alarm anyone.

With astonishing efficiency, the Dragon Shadow Guard swiftly and silently brought all the bottles and jars from Consort Jing's quarters.

While waiting for the medicines, the Emperor actually contemplated whether Xiao Liulang's words held any inconsistencies.

Generally speaking, given the martial skills of the Dragon Shadow Guard, they should have been capable of killing Xiao Liulang and Gu Jiao; if Consort Jing truly had ordered an assassination against the two, they would have never backed off halfway through the mission.

However, the primary command of the Dragon Shadow Guard was to protect the Emperor and to never harm him. They served Consort Jing, yes, but they would not lose their lives over her tasks.
