The Good-for-Nothing Prince’s Guide to Turning the Tables in a Golden Age

Su Yi, a modern business prodigy, unexpectedly transmigrates into the body of Chu Yichen, a notorious “good-for-nothing prince” of the Great Chu Dynasty. He expects to enjoy a life of luxury, only to discover that the position is fraught with danger. His enemies in court are squeezing the prince’s estate financially, and even his imperial brother, the emperor, is suspicious of him.

Just as Chu Yichen is fretting over his predicament, he unexpectedly activates the mysterious Golden Age System. By completing the tasks it assigns, he can earn all kinds of incredible rewards, from high-yield seeds to advanced manufacturing techniques.

Determined to change his circumstances, Chu Yichen combines his modern knowledge with the System’s power to launch a spectacular comeback. He introduces reforms at his estate, develops commerce, improves people’s livelihoods, and wins the people’s affection. At the same time, he matches wits with treacherous officials at court and averts one crisis after another.

Along the way, Chu Yichen meets Lin Wan’er, a brilliant young woman from a military family. They initially use each other, but gradually develop sincere feelings. Lin Wan’er not only takes care of Chu Yichen in daily life, but also gives him tremendous support in his work, becoming his most capable assistant.

In the end, with the System’s help, Chu Yichen successfully helps his imperial brother secure the throne, and the Great Chu Dynasty enters an unprecedented golden age. Chu Yichen also transforms from a prince everyone despised as a good-for-nothing into a legendary figure remembered throughout history. He and Lin Wan’er spend their lives together, leaving behind a beautiful love story.
