A Mere Scholar

Synopsis: Meng Junxing, a lantern official from the Yu dynasty, was reborn about a hundred years in the past, at the height of the dynasty's prosperity. Overnight, he became Fan Yuan, the charming third-place graduate of the imperial examinations. He was no more than a scholar, and all he wanted was to have a clear conscience. 1. Third-person narration, focused on the top. The protagonist is Fan Yuan (Meng Junxing), and this is firmly a one-on-one romance. 2. The top is mild-mannered, but can also be ruthless. He has his limits and his own principles. Everyone thinks the bottom is a violent prince with an unpredictable temper, but really, he just has a villain's face. 3. This is a fictional setting. The official titles, place names, and customs are inspired by history, but don't match it exactly. There will be all sorts of anachronisms, so history buffs, please don't nitpick. 4. Don't worry too much about the logic, the details, or the court politics. It may look like a serious historical drama, but it's really just a love story. Easy reading. This is a romance with no logic, and the author's intelligence is limited. Thanks to Mengxiang for kindly sponsoring the cover. Theme:
