Shen Xiyan transmigrated to an imaginary dynasty, where he became a private tutor and was bound to the "I'm a Good Teacher System." Unfortunately, the System was unreliable too: it tossed him an item and then vanished.
Shen Xiyan thought to himself: Could this be my golden finger?
He eagerly opened it and found The Barefoot Doctor's Handbook, The Militia Military Training Manual, and A Friend to Military and Civilian Talent, three famous transmigration novels from Zhihu.
Just as he was about to put his skills to use and teach his students well, he discovered that his predecessor had been a pervert who liked fantasizing about his students. The victim was the academy's famous aloof beauty.
To avoid suspicion, he treated his other students as follows: he cared for them and taught them patiently, making the student whose mind was elsewhere study the art of war and machinery; he gently comforted the timid one and taught him medicine and healing; and he had the sociable one study all kinds of business practices.
As for the aloof beauty: he kept his distance at all times and tried to avoid being in the same place as him.
Everything went peacefully until chaos erupted and heroes emerged. One of his students became a victorious general, another a brilliant strategist, and another a merchant wealthy enough to rival a nation. The most formidable, well-rounded student became the emperor who drove out foreign invaders and ushered in a golden age.
Shen Xiyan thought it was time to retire and find somewhere to enjoy his old age. But then a flash of dark dragon robes appeared before him, and the aloof beauty, now emperor, seized his hand. His voice was ominous: "You used to avoid me at every turn, Teacher. Where do you plan to run now?"
Feeling guilty and helpless, Shen Xiyan could only agree to become his Imperial Tutor. But he never expected that the young man actually wanted him to become his empress.

Coming soon: A Mountain Life of Farming and Raising a Golden Crow. Please add it to your favorites. Blurb:
Xu Wenqiu was an overworked office drone. He worked diligently for years without earning much, and instead ended up with a body full of ailments. Feeling his heart race nonstop, he finally made up his mind to quit and return to his hometown's small mountain village, where he planned to lie flat and farm.
But the ordinary, cozy village he remembered had some strange surprises. First, a blue bird appeared with a round egg in its beak and told him that the egg was his future husband.
Later, all kinds of unusual visitors arrived in the village: a youthful version of the Queen Mother of the West, ethereal and fond of sweets; Yinglong, who looked like a stern, tough man but secretly enjoyed watching ridiculous TV dramas; and all sorts of fluffy spirit beasts.
Looking at the countless extra mouths to feed at home, Xu Wenqiu could only grip his hoe and work hard in the fields. But those divine beasts couldn't just eat and drink for free, so he put them all to work farming.
And so Xu Wenqiu's farm got a Golden Crow brand solar panel, an Yinglong brand rainmaker, a Hanba brand weed whacker...
Xu Wenqiu inherited a mountain and an egg. After carefully incubating it, he raised a glittering golden bird. Its body was covered in down, and its beady black eyes were so cute that Xu Wenqiu's heart fluttered. Unable to resist, he rubbed and cuddled the bird all over.
That night, he dreamed of a shy young man accusing him of being far too bold. The young man's features were gorgeous, and perhaps it was only Xu Wenqiu's imagination, but his expressions and gestures were exactly like those of the bird he was raising.
Later, the grown man pinned Xu Wenqiu against the wall, bracing one arm beside his head. "You humans say yin and yang should unite, and three is a yang number. You are yin, and I am yang, so naturally you must have me in you and I must have you in me."
Xu Wenqiu glanced at the firm abs before him, swallowed, and pointed to the farm outside. "Have the watermelons had enough sun? Have you fertilized the corn? Stop saying such dirty things."
