After transmigrating, Gu Wangxi became the Imperial Preceptor, second only to the emperor and above everyone else.
The good news: He has a lot of power.
The bad news: He's destined to die young. His health is so poor that he won't even last three years.
The really good news: A System that calls itself one has latched onto him. It says that completing assigned missions will earn him survival points.
Xiao Qingshui is the biggest villain in the whole book, a tyrant who slaughters people whether he's in a good mood or a bad one.
Falling for a minister's wife is his fate, and flying into a murderous rage is his sin.
An upright minister is beheaded with a single sword stroke, while the minister's wife, taken by force, hangs herself with a white silk sash.
The really bad news: Gu Wangxi's mission is to reform this tyrant into a wise ruler loved by all.
Is this some kind of joke?
He suspects the System is messing with him, but he can't prove it!
What a ridiculous mission. Even a dog wouldn't do it.
System: [Fail the mission and you die!]
Gu Wangxi: It's not like I can't do it.
Gu Wangxi: I can do this. I've got this!
In his previous life, he made a living telling fortunes, scamming and swindling. One client meant one payday; two meant twice the money.
Playing the Imperial Preceptor is right up his alley. He can handle it with ease.
Easy!
As long as he keeps the young emperor from taking a minister's wife for himself, this mission will be a piece of cake.
They chatted through the night. The young tyrant looked at him with cool, phoenix-shaped eyes and said, "Teacher, I'm cold."
Gu Wangxi silently pulled the blanket up for him. Of course he'd be cold if he left his clothes off in the middle of winter and left the blanket wide open.
On a snowy, freezing night, the young tyrant unexpectedly kissed Gu Wangxi.
Xiao Qingshui's eyes reddened slightly. He said it was a sign of affection, and that he admired and looked up to his teacher.
Right! The young tyrant is a man, and he likes women. That explanation makes perfect sense.
Until one night, when the cold kept him awake, the tyrant held him down and bit his Adam's apple.
Wait, is this... normal?
