The ancients said that nine out of ten emperors were dim-witted, and the last one was a fool. The protagonist, Zheng Yu, had been an ordinary person in his previous life, with little experience of the world and no idea how to deal with people. He was hopeless at just about everything, and sometimes stubbornly refused to admit it. Fortunately, he had a capable wife who handled affairs outside the palace, charging into battle, keeping other states at bay, and managing court affairs at home. Of course, as emperor, Zheng Yu had his own important duties: eating steamed buns for lunch, noodles for dinner, and deciding which shoes looked good.
Through a strange twist of fate, Zheng Yu transmigrated from his previous life to the state of Lin. How was he supposed to protect a vast country like Lin, with other states eyeing it hungrily? And why had he been given nothing to help him after arriving here? What was Zheng Yu supposed to do now? At least his father had arranged a good marriage for him, though his wife was a little intimidating to look at. After enduring the vicious schemes of people from the other states, he finally learned what love was: a simple kind of love. For each other’s sake, Zheng Yu gave up the chance to return to his previous life, while the heroine, An Lan, gave up her place among the immortals. Love, hatred, and all the tangled emotions between them…
