I Accidentally Became the Big Villain, Only to Be Putty in the Heroine’s Hands

The story follows the power struggle between the Zhao and Li clans, two imperial factions. Zhao Wushuang names his grandson, Zhao Yunlan, heir to the Zhao clan and tasks him with devising a plan to deal with the Li clan. With the help of his assistant, Li Wan’er, Zhao Yunlan carries out a series of plans that successfully dismantle the Li clan’s power and ultimately bring about its downfall. Along the way, Zhao Yunlan demonstrates his intelligence and courage, while forming complicated relationships with several key figures. In the end, he uses Wu Minghui’s power to repel an invasion by northern foreign tribes and secure the Zhao clan’s position in Huaxia.
