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!"

Gu Jiao looked at him squarely.

Yuan Tang couldn't resist laughing, "Should I call you Doctor Gu or Lady Xiao?"

"Whichever you prefer." Gu Jiao said.

"Alright then, Doctor Gu." Yuan Tang chuckled, asking, "Why are you looking for me this late? Is something wrong?"

This was a question he already knew the answer to, but requisite small talk is a common necessity in human interaction.

Gu Jiao wasn't fond of empty talk. She glanced at his wound and bluntly asked, "Did you personally attempt to assassinate the Emperor?"

Yuan Tang was taken aback for a moment. He lowered his voice and chuckled, "In a matter as important as assassination, how could I not take matters into my own hands?"

This statement was essentially an admission of guilt.

Gu Jiao remarked indifferently, "At least you confess quickly."
