A Commoner in Great Xia

After transmigrating ten years into the past, Ning Xiu only wants to be a quiet, handsome man. But the horseshoe he casually sketches is stolen by the Embroidered Uniform Guard and astonishes the emperor. A scrap of paper he tosses over the wall is treasured by a great Confucian scholar, who insists on becoming his disciple. The Minister of Rites’ wife looks down on his background, but his daughter cries, “Mother, I want to marry him!” Then the princess cuts in, saying, “Make up your mind. If you won’t marry him, I will.” The quiet, handsome man can only give a bitter smile. “I really want to keep a low profile, but my abilities won’t let me.”
