Grand Preceptor, Your Secret Identity Is Showing!

Chen Yan never imagined that a promise he'd made at some point in the past would land him a position as court astrologer in this turbulent dynasty caught between old and new...

Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.

Chen Yan not only finds life here exhausting, but feels like nothing ever goes his way.

Why do I have to attend court when I'm the court astrologer?

Why is my neighbor that seemingly frigid chancellor?

Have you no manners????

With a face that no man or woman could resist, why does he go around covered in icicles all day?

I don't get it.

Three years later

Chen Yan: Actually, he's not so bad.

He's just a bit sharp-tongued.

Of course, after both their secret identities are completely exposed,

Chen Yan realizes everything he said above was total nonsense.

The newly enthroned young emperor has big ideas, and has recruited all sorts of martial artists from the jianghu.

When the new officials attend court for the first time, their cheerful expressions suddenly crack.

Isn't that the smiling man in front the master of Fengman Tower?

And who else could that icy-eyed man looking your way be but the sect leader?

This is ridiculous. Are you all here to join in the fun, too?

Chen Yan and Fu Che look at the assembled martial artists from the jianghu, at a loss for words...

Sure, the world is peaceful these days,

but that doesn't mean all of you have to show up for the fun!!!!!

A cold, sharp-tongued gong x a pretty, smiling shou who'll stab you in the back

What bad intentions could A Yan possibly have? He's just a bit too fond of talking nonsense.

What ulterior motives could A Che possibly have? He just wants to bring his sweetheart home.

*Content warning: This is not love at first sight!!! At first, neither of them knows the other, they've only heard of each other!!!

*There is a side couple!!!! They will get their own bonus chapters!!!

Theme: The jianghu and the imperial court come together!!!! There are no earth-shattering grudges, just people chatting about everyday life in their spare time. It's simply a silly, sweet little story, w
