At the dawn of a new dynasty, Chang’an’s Imperial College and Songyang Academy were locked in a fierce dispute over student recruitment, so consumed by their rivalry that they had lost all sense of proportion.
Every day, the libationer examined himself three times: Did the Imperial College increase enrollment today? Did the neighboring Songyang Academy go bankrupt today? Will I still have my official post tomorrow?
One day, a young man swaggered up to the Imperial College carrying a book chest and boldly declared that he would outdo the neighboring academy and make the Imperial College shine.
The libationer was so moved that tears streamed down his face. He immediately accepted the boy into the school.
On the first day, the boy skipped class.
On the second day, he got into a fight with students from the Imperial College.
On the third day, he got into a fight with students from Songyang Academy.
…
So they hadn’t recruited a student at all. They’d recruited a little tyrant!
Then one day, the young man was caught red-handed by the prefect of the capital for harassing a princess. The prefect flew into a rage and ordered thirty strokes of the cane.
To everyone’s surprise, the princess burst into tears, stepped in front of him, and shouted at the prefect, “Second Brother, she’s a girl!”
The libationer wiped his face, only to find his hand covered in tears.
It was over. The whole Imperial College would be shut down for deceiving the emperor.

They say Prince Jin is as refined and bright as moonlight.
But after Lu Xinwei married above her station, she got to see his unruly, devil-may-care side for herself.
Later, whenever she thought back to the day in court when he’d deliberately threatened to have her beaten thirty times, she couldn’t help sighing, “That awful man, all polished on the outside and a dog underneath.”

Li Qingchu picked up a “rabid dog” on her travels through the martial world.
She had originally been sent by the emperor on a secret mission to infiltrate the martial world. One day, amid the chill of a rainy night, two escort companies slaughtered each other, leaving no survivors.
Only one young man remained, barely clinging to life.
Li Qingchu saved him on a whim.
She had intended to find herself a helper. The young man was taciturn and aloof, but highly skilled in martial arts, and he certainly spared her a lot of trouble along the way.
She was very pleased.
But she was also exasperated, because the young man kept saying he wanted to repay her, and his idea of repaying her was to kill people for her.
Good grief, she’d saved a demon king.
Every morning, when she opened the door, she would find the young man sharpening his knife. He would turn back with a dazzling smile and ask, “So, who are we killing today?”
Li Qingchu: “…”

Ji Jiangnian’s cold, loveless life held nothing but revenge and killing.
Li Qingchu saved him, and in his mind, the only way to repay her was to help her kill people. It didn’t matter who they were; he dared to kill anyone.
But Li Qingchu felt she had to save the young man’s shattered sense of right and wrong.
She gently advised him, “If you do that, you’ll be executed!”
But what he heard was, “You want to cut off someone’s head!”
He nodded. “All right. Once I’ve sharpened my knife, point out who you want me to kill.”
Li Qingchu: “?”
She gave up and silently closed her eyes. So be it. She’d already picked him up; it wasn’t as if she could just throw him away.
But who could have guessed that, when she wasn’t paying attention, the young man’s gaze toward her would gradually change?
Until one day, the young man lifted the bed curtains and climbed onto her bed.
He nestled against her, nuzzled her neck, and said hoarsely, “Your hands are so cold. Let me warm them for you, all right?”
Did warming her hands require climbing into her bed?!
Only then did Li Qingchu finally realize she really had picked up a rabid dog, a truly awful one.
