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!"

377 Mother's kindness and filial piety (second watch)

Gu Jiao was not good at dealing with emotional issues, but she remembered that her great-aunt was quite fond of Xue Ningxiang. She wondered if she still remembered Xue Ningxiang after having her brain struck once.

"Miss Gu has arrived!"

The palace maids from Renshou Palace paid their respects to Gu Jiao.

"Is the Empress Dowager in?" Gu Jiao asked.

"Yes, she just returned from court," the palace maid added. "His Highness Prince Ning is also here."

Hm?

Prince Ning returned to the Imperial Palace?

Since Gu Jiao began frequenting the Imperial Palace, she didn't need to inquire deliberately to hear some of the movements at court. Prince Ning had recently taken Tang Yueshan to the north to suppress bandits.

Though it was said to be suppression, it was actually an excuse to investigate the military intelligence at the border pass—Chen Kingdom had grown restless again, quietly stationing a significant number of troops near the border.
