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!"

322 The Truth Revealed (two updates)

Within Renshou Palace, Empress Dowager Zhuang was addressing several backlogged official matters from the past few days.

Indeed, old age had caught up with her, and it had taken her a long time to fully recover from a severe illness. Only now did she deeply comprehend how difficult it had been to recuperate in the countryside.

Leprosy was no ordinary ailment, its infectious nature alone was enough to instill fear in all. It was a mystery how those two simple-minded individuals had dared to take her in.

Despite the fact that their living conditions were already tough and they themselves barely had enough to eat, they still took in a sick person.

Empress Dowager Zhuang sighed.

"Your Royal Highness, have you recalled your days in the country again?" Eunuch Qin asked with a smile.

"Yes." Empress Dowager Zhuang did not deny it, "Back then, they tricked me into believing that I had Tuberculosis, told me not to go out, for fear that I would spread the illness to the villagers."
