[Historical fantasy + comedy + unconventional comeback]
Modern rich kid Li Mingyuan hates rat races and loves to lie flat! He wakes up to find he's transmigrated into the puppet emperor at the end of a dynasty, and from the start he's handed a “death of the emperor” package?
While others fight for power, he just wants to slack off and give up. While others devote themselves to their duties, he just wants to lie flat and sleep!
Who could have guessed that his “suicidal” antics would make the entire dynasty tremble?
[You only wanted to insult the powerful minister, but it was interpreted as “the art of imperial rule.” Grand Secretary Wei Zhong is dumbfounded on the spot!]
[You only wanted to pretend to be crazy and fake an accident, but you scare off the Empress Dowager and are hailed as “the chosen one”!]
[You only wanted to play cards and slack off, but you defeat the Empress and make her willingly handle memorials!]
[You only wanted to shift the blame and dodge responsibility, but you accidentally expose a corrupt official, and the ultimate lackey, Li An, is born!]
[You only wanted to dig a swimming pool, but unearth a sacred stele from the previous dynasty. Then a “heaven-sent strongman” falls from the sky and crushes an assassin, earning you the title “Heaven's Mandate Sage Emperor”!]
[You only wanted to decide the disaster relief commander by drawing lots, but end up appointing powerful ministers and generals to head for the frontier together, successfully shifting the blame!]
The Great Yan Dynasty survives because of him and grows stronger because of him. Li Mingyuan meant to lie flat and wait to die, but by a twist of fate he becomes the most successful emperor in history, despite being the most “hopelessly lazy”!
“I really just want to lie flat! Whoever wants to be emperor can have the job!”
