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!"

415 The Truth About the Illness (Two More)_2

Gu Jiao took a seat beside her, setting down the small basket she carried before sitting and placing it on another chair.

"What book is your highness reading?" she asked.

Upon being asked, Princess Ning gave a faint smile, "Some poetry collections. Would you care to take a look?" She handed the book to Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao shook her head, "I don't understand poetry, nor do I like it."

Princess Ning laughed again, "I don't like it either."

Gu Jiao said, "Then why does your highness still read?"

Princess Ning replied with a light smile, "It's just to pass the time in the mansion."

She said it was to pass the time, but Gu Jiao felt it wasn't the only reason—it seemed more like she was forcing herself to do something she disliked and yet felt obligated to do.

Gu Jiao offered, "I can take your pulse, your highness."

Princess Ning stretched out her hand.

A maid approached, intending to lay a handkerchief under Princess Ning's wrist, but Princess Ning said, "There's no need."
