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!"

Despite knowing Gu Jiao's dislike for strangers, considering the size of the pool and some unfamiliar features, the empress dowager nonetheless arranged for two smart little maids to serve her closely.

This was Gu Jiao's first time in the palace's pool, and the novelty delighted her.

The grand hall was enveloped by golden columns resembling coiling dragons that reached up to the ceiling beams, with the bath in the center, shrouded on all sides by veils, hiding and revealing the opulence within.

Four artistic candleholders, each bearing increasing numbers of candles, were placed at the corners outside the veils.
