They say the aloof and noble Imperial Preceptor is nothing but a charlatan who gets by on his good looks.
After transmigrating into a book, Li Chu, a devoted beauty addict, launches a full-on campaign to win over her man in conservative ancient times.
For the eighteen-hundredth time, a messenger politely relays his refusal: "His Excellency Imperial Preceptor Qin asked me to tell you... Please give up. I will never marry in my life."
At the Lantern Festival banquet a few days later, Li Chu, the Chief Minister's legitimate daughter, decides to choose a husband the old-fashioned way: by tossing an embroidered ball.
The ball vanishes mysteriously after she throws it.
The next morning, Imperial Preceptor Qin arrives at her door with betrothal gifts and the embroidered ball, asking for her hand in marriage.
In the back courtyard, Li Chu is leisurely enjoying bird's nest soup. Hearing the news, she smiles faintly. "Tell him for me: this young lady will never marry him in her life!"
Imperial Preceptor Qin, who thinks tormenting his wife is fun for a while, doesn't understand what Li Chu means by "the road to winning your wife back is paved with fire."
With utmost seriousness, he announces to the world: "Build a ring of crematoriums around the imperial city, and the Qin Empire will enjoy peace and prosperity for a thousand years."
His subjects: "????"
Believe it or not, I have been waiting for you since a thousand years ago.
Spoiled beauty-obsessed daughter of the Chief Minister VS aloof and noble Imperial Preceptor. Happy ending.
[Very Important]
1. This is a silly story set in an imaginary historical world. Nitpickers, people who lack social awareness, and historical accuracy buffs, please leave at once.
2. The author is terrible at logic. The plot exists solely to serve the romance between the leads.
3. Sweet with some angst, laughter and tears. Throw flowers to your heart's content; no knives, please.
4. Thank you all for loving my story. I will love you forever. Woof~
