Shu Yunyi is reborn and returns to fourteen years ago. The real Shu daughter has been home for two months, and soon the family will use Shu Yunyi, their fake daughter, as a pawn and marry her off to the Wen family.

Remembering the miserable life she endured in her previous life, she refuses to be a puppet again and fights back.

The Shu family flies into a rage, then makes her take the blame and sacrifices her to save themselves.

Shu Yunyi leaves the Shu family without a word and opens a small clinic, relying on her miraculous healing skills.

Everyone says she's lost her mind. She turned down the wealthy life of the Shu family and refused to marry into a powerful household like the Wens. They'll see her crying as she comes crawling back one day.

Everyone waits to see her make a fool of herself, until one day the Grand Preceptor, whose power holds sway over the court, arrives at the clinic.

"Yunyi, come home with your grandfather."

Everyone: ??? So the fake daughter of the Shu family is actually the Grand Preceptor's real granddaughter!

"I'll replace all these things with better ones for you," her grandfather says gently, taking her hand. "That tall woman seems a little suspicious. I'll find you a new one."

Ye Liqing, the Prince of Jian'nan, dressed as a woman and doing unpaid work: "???"

1. Rouge Autumn Mystery (Investigation)

In the first year of the new regime, the Empress issues an edict to reorganize Beique and appoints a new superior from outside.

Tang Buyan comes from a distinguished family. A gentleman of impeccable manners, disciplined and principled, he's the elegant Tang gentleman admired by all the young women of Chang'an.

"I have to say, our Magistrate Tang has a slender waist and broad shoulders. The way he furrowed his brow that day, tsk, absolutely stunning."

While Mu Yu'er runs her mouth, the stunning Magistrate Tang is standing right behind her.

She drops to her knees.

Everyone knows that Beique is full of all kinds of riffraff and that its people excel at socializing and seduction, with Judicial Investigator Mu Yu'er the best of them all.

Tang Buyan is experiencing it firsthand.

The whole city of Chang'an is betting on when Tang Buyan, the upright paragon, and Mu Yu'er, the fake Daoist nun, will come to blows.

No one expected them to fight.

They ended up making everyone else eat their words!

That hurts!

At first:

Mu Yu'er: Drink today while there's wine, and sleep with a beauty in my arms every day.

Magistrate Tang frowns in disapproval: Nonsense.

Later:

Mu Yu'er: Mist veils the cold river, moonlight veils the sand. Magistrate, you'll be staying at my place every day.

Magistrate Tang nods calmly: We can discuss that.

Plot summary:

The Empress moves the capital, and Chang'an is swept into intrigue.

On the first day of spring, a murder takes place at Qujiang. The newly appointed top scholar is found dead in the river, while four nobles are discovered unconscious at the scene, covered in blood. When questioned, they all claim to know nothing.

Mu Yu'er is sent to investigate. Three days later, she personally knocks on the door of Tang Buyan, whose home is graced by imperial favor.

"Open up! I've come to spread some warmth!"

Behind the door, Tang Buyan sits with his forehead propped on one hand, his brows slightly furrowed.

Later, the suspect becomes her superior, and after an hour of carefully minding her words, Mu Yu'er lets loose completely.

2. Peach Blossom Hue

Bai Miaomiao, the youngest daughter of the Duke Jingguo's household in Chang'an, is a delicate little darling, a pampered princess who can't be touched, teased, or criticized. Say one harsh word to her, and she'll get teary-eyed.

She's also a beautiful fool and a bringer of bad luck, though it's other people who suffer from it.

Since her sixteenth birthday, one young gentleman after another has come to court her, but each ends up struck by disaster out of nowhere. The worst one even broke his leg.

People of Chang'an: Bad luck! Harbinger of disaster!

The Duke Jingguo's household: What nonsense! They're unlucky, so how is that Miaomiao's fault? What a bunch of idiots.

Who could have guessed that an imperial decree would suddenly betroth Bai Miaomiao, the center of everyone's attention, to Crown Prince Sheng Zhao, who has just moved into the Eastern Palace?

The Crown Prince is famous for his abstinence, aloofness, and nobility.

Everyone in Chang'an waits for the Duke Jingguo's precious daughter to run home in tears.

She does cry.

Right in front of everyone.

The little lady, white as a snowball, sits on the Crown Prince's lap and tugs at his clothes. Tears cling to her round eyes, on the verge of falling. She puts on a fierce expression, her little face flushed.

"Why won't you give me peach blossom pastries? Hic."

The Crown Prince coaxes and kisses her, no longer distant and cold as usual. He rubs her belly with a troubled look. "You've eaten too much. Your stomach will hurt again later."

Sheng Zhao was born in the Cold Palace and bullied by his siblings from childhood, leaving him gloomy and selfish.

In everyone's eyes, he's nothing but mud, someone anyone can bully, until one day, someone stands in front of him.

"Don't hit him!"

The little dumpling says angrily.

From then on, a dark peach blossom grows in his heart, boundless and shadowy.
