Gu Jue went down the mountain to rob people, and when he returned, he found a beautiful little darling in his room who neither cried nor made a fuss.
The little darling gazed at him eagerly. "Let me be your bandit's wife."
Gu Jue scratched his head, perfectly pleased. A good thing delivered right to his doorstep. He'd be asking for trouble if he turned it down.
His petite, delicate wife was soft and easy to push over, and spoke in a gentle, sweet voice. In just half a month, he'd been reduced to being the "bandit's husband." Everyone he met said, "The madam says..." or "The madam wants..."
Whose stronghold was this, anyway?
After much effort, he accepted reality and embraced his status as the bandit's husband. He figured having a child might help him improve his standing.
But then...
A thunderous crash split the sky, and his father-in-law made a dazzling entrance!
There's no such thing as a free lunch, and a fair, beautiful little wife doesn't just appear out of nowhere...
The first thing his father-in-law did was try to take his darling away? And get rid of their baby?!
Absolutely not! When had a bandit chief like him ever put up with such humiliation? He marched down the mountain, full of bluster!
Gritting his teeth, he knelt on the ground. "Father, the baby in Jiaojiao's belly is your own grandchild!"
His father-in-law's eyelid twitched. He really wanted to kick him out the door...
He'll take the imperial exams and join the court. Wherever his darling is, that's where he'll be! He isn't afraid of his father-in-law making things difficult, and childhood sweethearts can get lost!
Warnings: The first part is about the hero and heroine outsmarting each other in a bandit hideout in the wilderness. Later, the couple team up, share sweet moments, and take down scoundrels at court.
Coming next:
[The Censor Has His Eye on Me]
Blurb: Shen Yannong transmigrates into a widow whose husband died on her second day in the palace.
A seventeen-year-old orphan empress dowager, saddled with a young emperor who inexplicably clings to her, Shen Yannong knows that whether she survives depends entirely on what Grand Tutor Gu Xingyan says. To stay alive, she has no choice but to cling to this treacherous minister.
If the minister says east, she wouldn't dare go west.
If the minister kills someone, she keeps watch.
They scheme together and do every kind of evil.
She also has to shower the minister with all sorts of awkward flattery every day.
In truth, Shen Yannong only wants to earn a little favor, hoping Gu Xingyan will spare her life because she's sweet and obedient. Maybe she acts a little too convincingly and lays it on a little too sincerely, because for a moment even Shen Yannong herself believes it.
A little scene:
Shen Yannong is secretly listing Gu Xingyan's ten great crimes:
The day before yesterday, she fell in the imperial garden, and the treacherous minister caught her around the waist: shameless and brazen, taking liberties with the empress dowager!
Yesterday, while she was reviewing memorials in the Imperial Study, the treacherous minister drank from her cup: insubordinate, taking liberties with the empress dowager!
Today
She catches sight of someone entering from the corner of her eye, quickly puts away her little notebook, then turns to her son, who's practicing calligraphy, and solemnly says a bunch of nonsense:
"The Grand Tutor helped you ascend the throne in your time of peril. You must remember his kindness. Govern diligently and care for the people, and don't let the Grand Tutor down."
Her impressionable son has been brainwashed so thoroughly that he earnestly replies, "Rest assured, Mother. I will respect the Grand Tutor as I respect Father."
Gu Xingyan smiles without a word.
Shen Yannong: …
There's no need to take it that far.

Will the heroine be happy when she thinks about becoming a queen in the future?
The heroine's IQ is probably negative. She knew she was a bad person but she still dared to expose her wealth. Forget it, she let him take her down the mountain without any precautions. How stupid she is to take all precautions. Forgive me for not having the same IQ. I really can't tell.
The character design of a female pig's foot, right? At first, he comes across as a weak and innocent little white flower, but then he abruptly changes to a funny and lively type, which looks a bit embarrassing...??
