Newly appointed top scholar Pei Zhiyi had won the emperor's favor and been made Junior Prefect of the Capital Prefecture, tasked with helping Prince Chu govern the capital.
The court officials whispered among themselves: Prince Chu, Li Yun, was debauched and unruly, always acting out of line. That upright, aloof top scholar was sure to have a rough time.
Who could have guessed that on Pei Zhiyi's very first day in office, he would drag Prince Chu out of a beauty's arms at the Qinlou brothel?
On the second day, he shut down the gambling house Prince Chu loved to visit.
On the third day, Prince Chu tried to set off fireworks to win a beauty's smile, only to have his plans foiled by Pei Zhiyi's fire ban.
Prince Chu could take it no longer and declared he would drive Pei Zhiyi out within a month.
Pei Zhiyi replied coolly, “I'm afraid Your Highness isn't up to the task.”
A month passed. Prince Chu couldn't find a single fault with Pei Zhiyi, but unexpectedly discovered his secret:
The supposedly arrogant, clueless top scholar was actually a woman.
Pei Zhiyi gritted his teeth. “What will it take for Your Highness to keep my secret?”
Prince Chu raised an eyebrow, smiling like a fox. “Then... have the Junior Prefect put on women's clothes and dance for me.”
A sweet historical mystery with light suspense and two first loves (the male lead only seems like a playboy).
