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!"

Chapter 98: Brother and Sister (First Update)

Translator: 549690339

In the room filled with a faint smell of medicine, Madam Yao sat by her son's bed, falling asleep against the bedpost through sheer exhaustion.

Gu Yan stealthily opened his eyes, slyly surveying Madam Yao for a moment before waving his slender hand before her eyes.

Once he had ascertained that Madam Yao was indeed asleep, a mischievous smile spread across his face as he slowly pulled the quilt aside and tiptoed off the bed.

He had grown up commanding respect and deference, and this was the first time he had to be so careful; it felt oddly exciting.

Gu Yan sneaked out of the room like a thief in the night.

Madam Yao moved slightly, nearly scaring Gu Yan into another bout of illness - luckily she did not wake up, but merely changed her position and continued sleeping.

The maid who was guarding the room was being distracted by a guard, as long as he managed to get out of the courtyard, he could join them.
