Ren Wugui is the newly appointed top scholar, outstanding in both looks and talent. At a young age, he has already become a censor overseeing the officials.
He holds real power and is the person aristocratic families and powerful nobles most want to win over. At one point, they even wanted to bring him home as their son-in-law.
Yet during his celebratory parade, he announced in public that he would never marry, choosing instead to live as an ordinary man free of worldly desires.
A few days later, someone schemed to trap him alone in a room with Xu Muqing, and they were caught in front of everyone.
Ren Wugui decided to go all in. That very night, he went straight to the emperor and asked for an imperial decree granting him permission to marry Xu Muqing.
Emperor: “When choosing a wife, virtue matters most. His temper is famously awful. You're marrying a wife, not an ancestor.”
Ren Wugui: “There's nothing wrong with marrying an ancestor.”
The emperor laughed in exasperation and stopped bothering with the unreasonable fool whose head was full of love.
When the betrothal gifts were sent:
Xu Muqing: “My reputation isn't very good.”
Ren Wugui: “That's fine. Mine isn't good either.”
Everyone: “???”
Emperor: “?? Are you kidding me? All you do is talk nonsense.”
From then on, Ren Wugui's daily routine was to dress his spouse up beautifully and then send him out to have fun.
In Ren Wugui's eyes: My wife is taking the love I put into him and showing it off to everyone else.

Content notes:
1. The sweetheart is a very, very spoiled person. His odd temper is real, so please don't read if that's not for you.
2. Um, some parts may not live up to everyone's expectations. Please don't hold it against me.
3. Don't expect too much from them. They're just ordinary people.
Theme: Live happily.
