Mu Yin Xiu Is Still Picking Fights With the Censor Today

A wicked little hellion x A handsome, reasonable censor

Mu Yinxiu, the legitimate daughter of a military family, was fleeing an arranged marriage. While dodging the servants sent to catch her, she accidentally fell into the hot spring where the censor Nan Xueqing was bathing,

and even pulled off his bath towel...

She swore she hadn't looked.

But later, to pay off her debt, Mu Yinxiu painted The Censor Emerging from His Bath. Her painting was so good that the entire capital went wild for it.

Nan Xueqing, who usually kept to himself, was suddenly mocked by his colleagues at court. Once he learned the reason, he set off for the marquis's residence to demand an explanation.

People on the street were already gazing at his figure with burning eyes, staring at him without the slightest attempt to hide it.

When the young ladies of the capital got the news, they hurried in groups of three or five to the taverns and street corners, waiting for a chance to see him in person. They sighed that the censor truly looked like an immortal descended from heaven, unmatched in his handsome elegance!

As sales soared, merchants from out of town made a special trip to the capital to buy censor merchandise. Nan Xueqing was aghast: When did I get so many robes and handkerchiefs?!

Mu Yinxiu hid at home, smiling as she looked at the great pile of silver before her and rubbing her hands together like a fly, though she couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

Through a series of mishaps, the emperor decreed that the two marry on the spot.

On their wedding night, Nan Xueqing lifted his bride's veil and saw that she was none other than his archenemy, the woman who had repeatedly pulled down his trousers, caused him to tumble off a cliff and fall into water, and painted him in erotic pictures that she sold throughout the capital!

Under her veil, Mu Yinxiu quietly hid the knockout powder she had prepared for her escape.
