● Blurb
Li Mingzhu followed her dear friend from Cangwu, millions of miles away, across mountains and rivers to Qichu. She had barely enjoyed a few peaceful days when her friend quickly fell in love with someone from the royal family.
Not only that, before Li Mingzhu could even react, her friend gave birth to a son. Then, while Li Mingzhu wasn't looking, the couple both lost their lives.
Thirteen-year-old Li Mingzhu held the month-old Cheng Ce in her arms, bewildered and at a loss.
A saying circulated among the people:
Women of Cangwu bear Heaven's mandate.
The emperor and empress entrusted her with a heavy responsibility. As imperial tutor, she was to guide the infant Cheng Ce, using an unyielding show of force to put him on the throne, bring order to the court, and purge those who threatened the royal family.
The court reviled her and feared her, while opinion of her in the capital was divided.
Some accused her of disrupting the court and undermining imperial authority.
Others admired her cool restraint, intelligence, and composure.
Meanwhile, the young emperor who had grown up under her protection was little more than a puppet, knowing nothing of the bloody turmoil around him.
Li Mingzhu protected Cheng Ce as he grew up. Seeing him carefree, safe, and happy, she wished they could live like that for the rest of their lives.
But one day...
The beautiful young emperor sobbed pitifully. "Teacher, I love you."
Li Mingzhu: "..."
What nonsense.
Later...
Li Mingzhu realized in silence:
She wasn't the only one whose heart had begun to stir.

1. A lightly ensemble cast, with a strong female lead and a weak male lead.
2. The male lead is a hopeless romantic. The female lead is thirteen years older than him.
3. After the Sacrificial Realm Ceremony, Cheng Ce appears in 80% of the story.
4. Cangwu people generally live long lives. The female lead comes of age at twenty-two.
5. Please feel free to correct any mistakes in professional details. The author doesn't know everything about these topics. Thank you.
6. Both the female lead and the second female lead are straight; there is no romantic interest between them.
Theme: Accept Heaven's mandate.
I want to see the Monster Hunter and the Cat Monster 🐰 or Interstellar ABO
Damn, if you write about cats, you can also write about Cheng Ce. The cat's appearance inspired Mingzhu's bad taste, such as breaking off teeth to make tiger fangs, tying bells, pinching paws, drinking milk and accidentally falling into it. Yeah, it's so cute just thinking about it 🤩 😆 [covering face and peeking]
Sure enough, those of us who read the article have the same xp 😆 A good side story 💪
Mingzhu's charm this year is really... Just have fun with the cat.
Mingzhu and Cece in the parallel world also want to be happy 🥺
Ce Miao will always fight against the five scum hahaha
Cheng Ce is afraid of being naked, which reminds me of my childhood Nezha, Mom, I want to be naked, I want to be naked 😆
Little Li... I thought you were a cute little boy
Yeah, yeah, that's what I ordered!! Jiang Jiang, you dote on me so much (blushing) (secret kiss)
Okay, okay, Mingzhu is very suitable to be an emperor.
