The Invincible Lazybones System: Rejecting the Empress's Proposal from the Start

The Invincible Lazybones System: Reject the Empress’s Proposal from the Start Xu Wendong, a modern-day office drone, wakes up to find that he has transmigrated to Jiuzhou, a world where might makes right, and become a penniless scholar with nothing but bare walls at home. His life begins on nightmare difficulty, and he can barely afford to eat. Just as he starts worrying about how to survive, the 【Invincible Lazybones System】 suddenly activates. But its beginner mission is utterly absurd: reject Empress Feng Hou’s proposal that he marry into her family! Xu Wendong is baffled. He’s a nobody from a small frontier town, so how could he possibly have any connection to the supreme Empress? Yet the wheels of fate have already begun to turn. The young man he casually helps happens to be carrying a family heirloom, the Biyun Flute, which holds the secret to the world. And the modern marketing tactics he uses to solve an urgent problem unexpectedly catch the attention of Feng Hou, who is traveling incognito. Sure enough, before long, Feng Hou arrives in person and actually offers to recruit him, even promising him the position of imperial consort! Under the System’s “coercion,” Xu Wendong begins an adventure of dancing on the edge of a blade. He navigates the Empress’s favor, the covetous ambitions of local power brokers, and the shocking conspiracy of the mysterious organization known as the Shadow Society. Along the way, he gradually discovers that his transmigration was no accident, and that the Biyun Flute points to a calamity capable of overturning time and space. See how Xu Wendong uses his wits and the System’s help to thrive amid the chaos, refusing to live off a woman while still saving the world from the brink of disaster and carving out a one-of-a-kind path to the top.
