Spring Is Warm, the Bedchamber Fragrant with Flowers in Bloom

Spring Warmth, Fragrant Flowers Beneath the Curtains, also known as The Imperial Preceptor Dotes on His Little Fox

Everyone says that Imperial Preceptor Zhen Yu has profound cultivation, but has yet to renounce worldly desires. He keeps his personal maid in the palm of his hand and pampers her.

Look, look, they even held hands.

Chu Qianyan: "Nonsense. We haven't even touched hands once."

The Imperial Preceptor: "Mm, we haven't touched hands once. It must have been several times, then." He just wants to put an end to other men's hopes of winning you over.

Chu Qianyan: ...

The Proper Blurb

Chu Qianyan: She was the youngest daughter of the wealthy Chu family, a family of Confucian merchants in the capital. Who could have known that she was born with bewitching, irresistible charm? She offended a powerful noble and was punished by being sent to a Taoist temple to work as a little maid.

Qianyan sweeps the floors and recites scriptures every day, yet discovers that the noble young ladies of the capital come to seek the Imperial Preceptor's guidance on the Tao every day. Has the Great Zhou dynasty really been enlightened to such an extent? She silently recites: Boundless Heavenly Worthy, oh!

Feng Yu: The current emperor devotes himself entirely to the Tao. He gave up the chance to enter the Hanlin Academy and became a Taoist priest despite placing second in the palace examinations. By the time he took the seat of Imperial Preceptor, he was already able to influence the course of the court.

Thus, Feng Yu has always kept his distance from women, and it would not be wrong to call him cold-hearted. Yet for her, he takes off his Taoist robes and steps back into the whirlpool of court politics.

Gu Wan'er is reborn on the day her assassination attempt on the prime minister fails and she dies.

She swears she won't take on this job again and hurries to retreat.

So why is she captured and taken to the prime minister's residence?

The prime minister made his name at a young age, and everything about him shows that he is not someone to trifle with. Gu Wan'er immediately decides that, no matter what, she must leave.

But every time she tries to escape, why is she always caught and brought back?

It's all because the residence has such luxurious beds and pillows, and she has been pampered with fine clothes and food. Her body has gone soft, and she can't even lift her feet. Pei Hanzhi, what drug did you give me? If this goes on, I'll turn your whole household upside down.

Who would have thought the prime minister would say: My estate is big enough. Make as much trouble as you like. Once you've had enough, how about becoming my wife?

Gu Wan'er: I'm quite satisfied with being an assassin. Maybe I shouldn't change careers after all.

A kind-looking but ruthless male lead who specializes in dealing with every kind of defiance vs. a heroine who pretends to be pitiful, is always trying to escape, and gives in at the slightest pressure.
