Uncle and Nephew (part 1) The next day, Fang Qingdu stormed furiously into Gewu Hall, directly slamming a book scroll onto Pei Yanci’s desk. “Look at what fine things you’ve done!” His chest heaved violently with anger, and a trace of barely concealed ferocity appeared on his usually stern and serious face. “You’re going to ruin our entire Imperial Academy!” “Is Vice Chancellor Fang…

Awakening of the Heart  “Adoptive father, this son is speaking well of you,” Huo Cun hastily pleaded for mercy, casting a look of appeal toward Pei Yanci. Pei Yanci smiled slightly, “Why are you looking at me? Your adoptive father is just joking with you. How could he truly do anything to you?” With these words, Huo Cun felt the faint murderous intent that…

Uncle and Nephew (part 2) After Gu Jiuqing drank a cup of hot tea, his body became hot and sweaty again, his entire body sticky and uncomfortable. This kind of summer rain, not yet soaked through, neither dry nor wet—it was most irritating. He sat cross-legged, his upper body held straight, his gaze falling directly ahead where no one sat opposite. He wanted to…

Rescue  Pei Yanci strolled leisurely from the back courtyard, but didn’t encounter Huo Cun. Thinking he might be in the front courtyard, he couldn’t help but find it rather strange. Tang Xizhui had always been particular about extravagance and ostentation, and enjoyed tormenting people. Even his footstools required people to kneel and serve as backrests. There were quite a number of servants attending to…

Banquet (part 1) Beneath the long corridor, the rain outside had stopped. Black eaves dripped strings of intermittent water ripples. The evening breeze was somewhat cool, blowing against exposed skin, inevitably raising goosebumps. Qi Lan’s eyes held a mocking light as he leaned against a square pillar with crossed arms, his head tilted sideways against the column, leisurely watching the two of them with…

Old Matters Pei Yanci was no match for someone who had trained in martial arts for years, especially one with such natural divine strength. He only managed a startled cry before being pressed down onto the carriage floor, both hands twisted behind his back. A rough hand reached into the back of his neck, calloused knuckles sliding across the smooth skin, causing him to…

Banquet (part 2) He wanted to say that aristocratic families fought for power and profit, circling people and territory everywhere, like parasitic dodder—a tumor that appeared to depend on the Gu family dynasty’s great tree but was actually coiling around it, constantly feeding on its blood and essence. When this dynasty fell, there would be another one they’d prop up. He wanted to say…

Crashing into a Pillar  Lately, rumors had been circulating throughout the Imperial Academy that Pei Yanci would be the next Chancellor. During their leisure time, Erudite Scholar Wang teasingly asked him about it, saying he’d better prepare to host a banquet when the time came. Pei Yanci deflected by saying the results weren’t clear yet and told him not to spread rumors. In recent…

Drunkenness (part 1) A glimmer of light flashed through Pei Yanci’s eyes, like a meteor streaking past in an instant. “Establish separate education bureaus within the twenty-four Military Governor regions across all of Great Yu, with the prefecture managing the provinces, provinces managing the counties, and counties managing the townships, all under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Academy, to regulate official schools.” “Little Brother…

Dust of the Past  Pei Yanci fell ill again. The cold from before hadn’t fully healed, and that day he was caught in the rain. The underlying condition relapsed, and this time it was even more serious—he developed a fever. Because of his illness, his sleep was restless. At night, he kept dreaming intermittently of a hand—withered, ice-cold, yet forceful, clutching at him desperately.…
