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!"

Meanwhile, Lord Gu had settled in at the Wenquan Villa.

Lord Gu, holding a significant position in the capital, should not be absent for long, but facing such a grave matter, he had already written to his second son in the capital, asking him to request leave on his behalf from the emperor.

Ordinary marquises might not be able to get audience with the Emperor, but who else's sister is a favored concubine of the Emperor if not Lord Gu's? Hence, there was no difficulty for the second young master of the Gu family to meet with the Emperor.

The Emperor was aware of Gu Yan's condition and guessed that Lord Gu might stay because Gu Yan's not well. He instructed Lord Gu to stay peacefully at the villa and resolve the family affairs properly.

… He just omitted to say that Lord Gu could return to the capital once he had handled the aftermath of Gu Yan's situation.

Lord Gu, oblivious to the subtle intents of the Emperor, was busy searching for that child from all those years ago.
