I Hold Group Meetings at the Imperial College

Deadpan, black-hearted slacker heroine x loyal, proper-on-the-surface hero [New serial: The Scorned Girl Refuses to Become the Savior] Zhuang Liangyu transmigrated into a book. She became the daughter of Grand Tutor Zhuang of the Great Yong dynasty, destined to be a jealous imperial consort who would later be killed by the new emperor with a cup of poisoned wine. So she decided to lie flat, stay away from the plot, and quietly focus on academic pursuits with her father at the Imperial Academy. But her leisurely days didn't last long. An imperial decree declared that seventeen-year-old Zhuang Liangyu would marry General Xiao, making her the envy of countless young women in the capital. Having spent seventeen years lying flat at the Imperial Academy with her father, Zhuang Liangyu decided she ought to do something with her life. So she rolled over and prepared to keep lying flat at General Xiao's residence. But she never expected General Xiao to be so devoted to his family and clingy with his wife that he insisted on taking her along even when he went south to provide disaster relief. With starving corpses everywhere and countless refugees, Zhuang Liangyu couldn't stand to watch, so she dusted off her old skills and led people toward prosperity. She was a little too successful, and ended up taking her father's place as the only female director of the Imperial Academy in the Great Yong dynasty. Looking at all the young scholars, who only knew how to quote the classics and scheme for power, she said: Zhuang Liangyu: "Today, let's start by writing a proper literature review, then hold a group meeting to discuss everyone's recent research on the Four Books and Five Classics!" The students, whose hands were sore from writing, were terrified of group meetings and literature reviews, and switched from the humanities to engineering. Zhuang Liangyu: "A paper should be written on the land itself. What use is a paper that has never been tested in practice? It's like a cat that's never caught a mouse in its life." So the students who had only ever studied theory rushed out into the wide world to test their strategies for governing the nation. The court was awash in blood and intrigue, while a gentle breeze and drizzle blew through the classroom. Princes rebelled, aristocratic clans plotted revolt, and the empire teetered on the brink of collapse. Would they turn the tide? When everything had finally settled, someone asked what she had done it all for. Zhuang Liangyu said, "To hold group meetings, and to hold good group meetings without distractions." The students eavesdropping nearby wailed in despair, but the court and the people were thriving, and everything was getting better. At first, Xiao Qinzhou only wanted to give his wife something to do, so she wouldn't spend all day shut away in the inner quarters thinking only about romance. But he never expected her to be so ambitious that she rose to the top in no time. The first day, General Xiao waited eagerly for his wife to come home for dinner... The second day, General Xiao sent someone to bring his wife home for dinner... The third day, General Xiao went straight to the Imperial Academy to cling to his wife! If he didn't make himself noticed, his wife might forget she even had a husband! Twelve years ago, beneath apricot blossoms in a gentle spring rain, a little girl had already found her way into Xiao Qinzhou's heart. All the years since then had been part of his careful design... As for the future emperor, who had initially only wanted to use Zhuang Liangyu, he could only stand atop the palace tower and watch from afar as the general and his wife walked away together. He had planned it all, never imagining he would make someone else's life complete... Theme: Your fate belongs to you
