[Story Description]
Question: If you could return to the past, what would you do?
Gu Jiuxi: Learn everything I can, give my life for my country, speak up for its people, and make sure tragedy never happens again.
*
As an ordinary person among the many who transmigrated from a later era, Gu Jiuxi knows this history, steeped in blood and tears, all too well.
Corrupt officials drain the treasury.
Foreign invaders bring endless warfare.
The new emperor is young, and uncle and nephew turn against each other.
Year after year of famine leaves the people destitute.
Just as she examines herself and wonders what she can do, she discovers that she is actually Gu Jiuxi, the incompetent tutor recorded in history, and that she is disguised as a man.
Looking at the young boy in front of her, who doesn't even reach her waist and seems so sensitive and fragile, Gu Jiuxi falls silent for once.
Is this really the same boy who, according to the history books, will grow up to become the cruel and frivolous Emperor Jingxian?
Just as she resolves to set the boy on the right path and fulfill her duty as his teacher, a System notification sounds in her ear.
[Ding! Master Teacher System activating. Host, please do your best to complete your tasks and raise the target into a great ruler.]
And so, super rice saves countless people from famine, firearms and cannons repel the fierce northern invaders, and the principles of governance and talent management help the little boy grow into a great ruler. Gu Jiuxi brushes off her sleeves and prepares to retire after completing her mission.
Liang Zhao: Tutor, are you really going to leave me behind?
Gu Jiuxi: ...
She never taught him to turn against his teacher. Will someone tell her who taught the emperor to behave like this?!
