The Playboy Life of the Marquis of Zhenbei

Yun Shuo transmigrated into another world and became the sole heir of the Marquis of Zhenbei's household. His entire family had been loyal martyrs, and he was the last surviving son. The emperor and empress doted on him like their own child, while his grandmother treasured him above all else. To survive in a court full of dangerous schemers and uncover the truth behind his father and brothers' deaths, he decided to give up trying. From then on, the capital had a new good-for-nothing playboy. One day he would lounge in a brothel listening to music; the next, he'd be fishing and grilling by the river. Everyone knew him as a worthless young heir. But by night, he was the master of Qingyi Tower, the most mysterious organization in the realm: wealthier than a kingdom, secretly controlling the world's affairs. His goal in life was simple: play the part of a wastrel and live out an ordinary life. Then Li Huashang, the renowned eldest princess, returned victorious from the borderlands. She gave him a cool, piercing look. "You've done a good job pretending, but you can't fool me." Soon, the border was in crisis, foreign enemies invaded, and a treacherous minister in the court cut off his escape route, intent on burying him along with the Marquis's household. At last, Yun Shuo rose from his drunken stupor and yawned lazily. "I wanted to treat you like ordinary people, but all I got in return was distance and oppression." "I'm done pretending." My name is Yun Shuo, Marquis of Zhenbei. Today, I return.
