With one blink, Shi Xi transmigrates a thousand years into the past and becomes the daughter of a wealthy family in Shu. Miss Shi spends her days shopping for food and flowers, living a carefree and comfortable life.
Until one day, her mother brings home a handsome young boy with delicate features and says he's the childhood friend promised to her in marriage before birth. She tells Shi Xi to take good care of him.
With a soul opposed to arranged marriages, Shi Xi of course takes "good care" of him:
When the young man practices his writing, she pours sesame oil into his inkstone...
When he studies, she hides cockroaches between the pages of his books...
When he spends half a day making a bamboo dragonfly, she throws it into the pond.
Watching the young man clench his fists while doing his best to keep a calm expression, Shi Xi rejoices: Now you'll break off the engagement with me, right?
The young man threatens her. "I'm going home to tell my big brother!"
Shi Xi: "Go ahead! What's your brother's name? Tell him to come fight me!"
The young man grits his teeth. "My brother's name is Su Shi! Just you wait!"
Shi Xi: ...What did you just say?
At first, Shi Xi only wants to be a lazy fish who eats and waits to die.
Later, her dream of living like a lazy fish gains a new addition: Su Zhe becoming prime minister.
Later still, she sees the splendor of Dongjing and the countless lives of ordinary people.
She touches her trembling conscience and decides to try to change things, even if only a little.

Reading notes:
1. This is an alternate timeline with a blurred chronology, countless creative liberties (important!), and a mountain of unofficial history. For entertainment only.
2. OOC warning. The male lead is Su Zhe, and Su Shi also has a substantial role.
3. The female lead grows and changes in personality and ideals as she gains experience. The story is told from her perspective and is not a wish-fulfillment power fantasy.
4. Rational corrections and discussion are welcome.
Coming soon: A Day of Cases in Bianjing
Shen Mingyue is the first female commissioner of the Xuanyang Bureau. She is decisive and ruthless, and has made countless enemies in her three years on the job. Fortunately, the emperor isn't put off by her notorious reputation. The court officials may fear her, but they can only swallow their anger.
Who could have guessed that a case would trip her up, and Shen Mingyue would accidentally spend a night of passion with Su Zhiyu, the newly appointed Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review?
Who is Su Zhiyu? The emperor's beloved nephew, a prodigious young top scorer in the imperial examinations, and a gentle, upright man praised by the entire court. No one has a bad word to say about him, except that he and Shen Mingyue disagree on politics, and she, a notorious troublemaker, chews him out every other day... Yet this gentleman, bright as the moon, is bound to Shen Mingyue in marriage by the Empress Dowager.
Their colleagues sigh behind their backs: A jade-faced gentleman matched with a she-demon! And the kind who argues with her husband under the emperor's nose every other day! Just wait. When these two divorce, we'll ask Vice Minister Su for a drink to celebrate!
The Red Chamber is packed with guests. The married couple converge on the same case, while the stage sings: "Fighting heaven and earth, clearly a pair of immortals in love..."
Below the stage, behind the shifting curtains, two figures hide from view. The gentleman, untouched by worldly dust, loses control of his breathing. Su Zhiyu pins down the person in front of him and grits out a threat: "Didn't we agree the Court of Judicial Review would take the suspect?"
Shen Mingyue gently strokes the corner of his lips, grinning shamelessly. "How could the Xuanyang Bureau pass up such a fat prize? Swords don't have eyes. Let's see who has the better skills."

Well, if you can't write it and still want to make money, just use the excuse of being reluctant to let go. I've been admitted to graduate school since I read this article. Author, do you have any clues?
It's great, it's been updated [Applause] Although I still want to sigh that Su Che's story has been neglected, it shouldn't be... But it's up to you, I hope you don't give up, it will go smoothly all the way to the end, keep up the good work [Compare your heart]
Wang Anshi's wife's surname is Wu, and her name is Wu Qiong. Don't take your husband's surname.
Is it okay to update regularly [Pigeon] Okay?
I started asking for leave in September, but after a month or two, I didn't update a section, and the leave request form was not posted. It was promised that it would be updated soon. Why wasn't it updated? Readers' time and money are not used to wait for you to trick me. If you say you don't want to let this story go, who are you talking about if you continue to trick me like this? I will always avoid this author from now on. From September last year to almost May this year, if something happened in the third dimension, I would just solve it. If you like this story, you can also update it.
After waiting for another two months, I feel that the enthusiasm has faded a bit 🤔🤔🤔 If you really can't write, can you solve the V?
I must resume daily updates on time. I haven't fallen in love yet and I don't really want to be a father 🐶
This chapter feels like the character's personality is suddenly different from before. It turns out that it has been a long time 😂
If you can't write it, don't forcefully write the solution v.
When writing about the Renzong Dynasty, Mr. Bao will always appear.
