Sage of Letters, Imperial Tutor, Power Over All!

[Alternate History] [Literary Plagiarism] [Female Emperor] [Family Estrangement] [Face-Slapping] [No System] [Lighthearted Power Fantasy]

“Lu Guanlan, you useless, ignorant waste of space! You've disgraced the entire Lu family! As of today, you and I are no longer father and son!”

After transmigrating, Lu Guanlan becomes the legitimate eldest son of the Censor-in-Chief's household, despised by everyone.

His stepmother frames him, his father favors someone else, and his half-brother even wants to steal his betrothal match?

Lu Guanlan cuts ties with his family on the spot, takes the bookshop his late mother left him, and walks away with a spring in his step.

He plans to copy poems and essays, earn some money, marry a few pretty wives, and live out his days in comfort.

Who knew that one casual poem would leave the talented scholars of four kingdoms speechless!

One offhand essay has the entire court marveling at his genius!

Even the pretty young woman who often visits his bookshop to buy poems and freeload a meal starts seeing him in a new light.

Then one day, in front of the entire court, the female emperor personally issues an edict:

“Minister Lu, I hear Lu Guanlan is your son?”

“Such a great talent, one capable of safeguarding the nation. I will put him to work myself!”

“You are to invite him to court!”

At her words, Lu's father goes pale and collapses on the spot.

Meanwhile, Lu Guanlan stares in bewilderment at the female emperor who has suddenly appeared in his bookshop.

“Wait, Miss Xiao?”

“Why are you wearing an imperial robe?!”
