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!"

Honesty 78

Besides Huang Zhong, his bodyguard, there were no others around Marquis Gu.

Gu Jiao ruled out the possibility that he was here to capture her.

But if he wasn't here to capture her, why had he appeared?

Gu Jiao had no penchant for this haughty marquis who thought of commoners as insects. Holding her little Junior Pure Land tightly, she watched him with caution.

If he dared to hurt them, she wouldn't mind claiming his life right there and then.

Marquis Gu noticed Gu Jiao's hostility. He cleared his throat and sternly said, "I'm not here to capture you. I bear no ill will."

Despite his declaration, Gu Jiao remained wary of him.

Marquis Gu's emotions were complex. He was struggling with accepting that this girl who had repeatedly outsmarted him, was, in fact, his long-lost blood. He also felt remorse over their past grievances.

Regardless, since he had come, he needed to speak his mind.

Marquis Gu gestured to Huang Zhong, who retreated to a distance.
