You Can Have This Sharp-Tongued Imperial Guard

Quirky, sharp-minded girl with a hidden side x cold-blooded, sharp-tongued Imperial Guard

Mystery and deduction + revenge and crime-solving + a writing practice piece

Jiang Yimian, a feng shui master, is on her way to a client's home with a compass in hand, but in the blink of an eye, she transmigrates to an alternate dynasty.

Jiang Yimian is quite happy, though. This means she no longer has to endure the oppression of parents who treat her like an ATM. She can start a new life here.

But it's not that simple.

The original owner of Jiang Yimian's body has a family business on the verge of bankruptcy, a younger brother in debt, and a father who was angered to death. Now she has to clean up this entire mess.

Jiang Yimian: ? I'm a transmigrator, at least. Can't I get some perks?

Of course you can. How about a pair of yin-yang eyes?

So Jiang Yimian transmigrates and gains the ability to see ghosts. But can ghosts give her money?

As it turns out, they really can.

A vengeful spirit clings to Jiang Yimian, begging her to help exact revenge. Once it's done, the spirit will give her all the wealth it hid during its lifetime.

Jiang Yimian: Sorry, but I really will take on this revenge plot.

Still, Jiang Yimian can't shake the feeling that something's off. Why does she always feel like someone's investigating her while she's solving cases?

Zhou Zhizui, the Investigating Censor disguised as a delicate young scholar, is secretly looking into this strange girl. Why isn't she staying put as the owner of her shop? What is she doing at a place where murders keep happening?

When the two meet, it's like a firecracker hitting a torch: sparks fly immediately.

Jiang Yimian: Oh my, the Investigating Censor is secretly looking into me. Are you trying to pick a fight, sir?

Zhou Zhizui: You got that right, miss. I'm picking a fight. What are you going to do about it?

Jiang Yimian steps on Zhou Zhizui's shoe and grits out, "I may not have many talents, but my footwork is something else." She blinks at Zhou Zhizui, smiling brightly. "What do you think, sir?"
