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!"

Chapter 150: Defending in a Domineering Way (Part 2)

The man's injuries were fatal, and he died.

The woman was left a widow.

Xuanping Marquis pitied her and gave her some silver.

As it happened, the medical practitioner's relatives were victims of a flood, had brought their family and sought refuge with the practitioner.

The practitioner's home was now without room, and the Marquis, needing treatment for his injuries, couldn't travel far.

"If you do not mind, sir, you may stay in my home," the woman proposed.

From then on, Gu Jiao could piece together what happened without needing the steward Liu to elaborate.

"The Marquis stayed for half a year, until his injuries were fully healed. He asked her if she wanted to go with him to the capital, but she was hesitant. The Marquis, never a man to force others, gave her a token and told her she could come to the capital and find him whenever she was ready."

Steward Liu sighed, "Oh, the Marquis... He really doesn't understand women."

Gu Jiao wasn't involved, so she didn't comment.
