The Supreme Imperial Tutor’s Cherished Wife

[The serious synopsis]

At eleven, Jing Su, the legitimate daughter of the Jing clan, Great Marshal of the State of Chu, watched her family be destroyed and became a slave in a fallen kingdom. With no power to fight back, she had no choice but to take the name Dong Su, disappear into the city, and wait for a chance to exact revenge.

Nine years later, Dong Su appeared in the imperial capital of her enemies as the wife of the revered Imperial Preceptor. From then on, the Imperial Preceptor’s residence held a pair of hands capable of controlling the winds and clouds: she could make medicine, slay enemies, and scheme for power.

Watching her enemies seated high above, united in their rule over the realm, Dong Su smiled, graceful beyond compare.

There was no need to rush. She would make them repay her for the pain of her kingdom’s destruction and the slaughter of her clan.

The imperial capital was swept up in turmoil, and raging flames consumed the city.

The splendor of the realm fell, and the dust finally settled.

After countless upheavals and amid the warmth and cruelty of human nature, a couple quietly disappeared together.

[About the male and female leads]

Everyone said that the cold and heartless Imperial Preceptor was utterly devoted to his wife, indulging her and granting her every wish.

The Imperial Preceptor’s wife was quick-witted and clever, and she delighted her husband. He showered her with love, let her do whatever she pleased, willingly cleaned up her messes, and kept her safe.

Dong Su gazed at the handsome face close before her, sculpted as if from stone, and rubbed her chin.

Good looks, treats her well, capable, and even an ancient wolf demon! On second thought, being the Imperial Preceptor’s wife wasn’t such a bad deal!

But... Dong Su never imagined that beneath the lofty Imperial Preceptor’s cold exterior lurked a mischievous, tsundere side!

[One couple throughout, one couple throughout, one couple throughout. Both leads are strong, and neither has been involved with anyone else.]

[PS: The story is set in an alternate world inspired by real historical events, so please don’t nitpick the history.]

I’m terrible at writing synopses, so please read the story itself. It has plenty of twists and turns, but A Si is doing her best. I hope you’ll stay with me!
