Master Mu, a famous nouveau riche in the capital, always hoped someone in his family would become a scholar. So the responsibility fell to his only daughter, Mu Qing.
Mu Qing lived up to his hopes and placed second in the imperial examinations. But she had no great ambitions. She just wanted a small official post to please Master Mu.
Who knew Mu Qing would have such ridiculous luck? Every one of her superiors either retired due to old age or became too ill to do the job, and every vacancy just happened to be filled by Mu Qing.
As she rose through the ranks, Mu Qing was initially terrified. Eventually she grew numb to it, and her daily amusement became figuring out when her superior would leave office.
Until at last, her immediate superior became the powerful and ruthless Chancellor Ye Rongjun, who also happened to be her husband in name only...
Ye Rongjun: "Lord Mu, are you interested in becoming chancellor?"
Mu Qing, panicking: "This subordinate wouldn't dare."
Ye Rongjun: "I have a strong constitution, so Lord Mu has no hope of taking the chancellor's seat. But you could hold the position of Chancellor's Wife for the rest of your life."
Mu Qing: ...
Little scene:
"Chancellor, my father likes sons-in-law who are low-ranking scholars with no money to their names. I'm afraid you don't quite meet his requirements."
Mu Qing wiped the cold sweat from her face, looking a little conflicted.
Ye Rongjun raised an eyebrow and calmly pulled a marriage contract from his sleeve. "Lord Mu, do you think I still have a chance?"
Mu Qing: !!!
Why was that marriage contract still around?
Currently serialized: The Emperor's Daily Fox Petting
Alan pursued Emperor Xuanqing for three lifetimes, and each time it came to nothing, leaving Alan in a terrible state. After returning from the trials of the final lifetime, Alan finally understood. He had to fall for someone else!
As soon as he made this vow, he came across a handsome man covered in wounds. So... he stuffed him into a sack and carried him off.
Emperor Xuanqing had a peculiar hobby: he loved anything fluffy. As it happened, after returning from his trials, injured and exhausted, he was taken home by a wild, fluffy creature.
This fluffy creature wasn't very bright and was easy to fool. It could act cute, care for him, and cheer him up. More importantly, it could be petted whenever he wanted. So... Emperor Xuanqing tricked and cajoled it into becoming his fluffy creature alone.
Emperor Xuanqing: I'm getting old, and my teeth aren't what they used to be. Time to live off someone else's kindness.
But later, Emperor Xuanqing discovered...
His fluffy creature had someone else in its heart!
"Alan, be good and tell me who the man you have a crush on is."
He wanted to see which bastard had stolen his fluffy creature!
"It's... it's Emperor Xuanqing. I like him so, so much, but I've pursued him for ages and still haven't won him over."
"..."
Could you possibly be a fake fan?!
Theme: Lovers will find their way to each other
Wow ~ I like the story of the emperor and empress
It was a bit hard to watch at first, but later on it was pretty good
It's sweet ~ the emperor and empress also like it ~
Only when the emperor becomes stronger can he protect Qianqian
Are the emperor and the prime minister playing a big show, secretly trying to trick people?
Hahaha, it's almost over, I still like this rhythm very much
After watching it, the male and female protagonists are quite sweet, but the story line is so weak and the ending is so sudden... So in the end, the male protagonist did not redress his parents' grievances, and neither did the female protagonist.
Prime Minister, please come and save your wife.
Come on ^0^~
Come on ^0^~
