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!"

557 Pulling the firewood from under the cauldron! (Second Update)

Minister Xing had absolute trust in Xiao Liulang, first because Xiao Liulang was just a frail scholar who, facing a vicious criminal, could not ever possibly commit murder to silence someone, and second, because Xiao Liulang had always made an impression as someone who avoided worldly affairs and was incorruptible and upright.

Nobody could fabricate evidence, but Xiao Liulang would not!

Far from worrying that Xiao Liulang might falsify anything, Minister Xing was more concerned that Xiao Liulang, seeing a living person die before his eyes, might feel compunction and be left with a shadow over his investigation.

Minister Xing did not recall in the slightest that Xiao Hen had once worked as a coroner; having dissected corpses, was he going to be scared by a living person dying?
