(Princes + War + Comedy + Misguided Admiration + Character Growth)
The Zhao clan’s century-old empire teeters on the brink of collapse. Chu Xinghe’s cavalry has smashed through the northern frontier and is closing in on the imperial capital, Yanjing.
The emperor flees south in panic, leaving the hopeless task of holding the rear to Zhao Baiyu, the seventh prince, a good-for-nothing who spends his days lazing about.
He can barely lift a weapon and knows nothing of military strategy. He just wants to surrender as soon as possible and save his own skin. Yet every time he gives a ridiculous order, it somehow turns out right and blunts the Chu army’s advance.
As the glory of the Zhao bloodline is rekindled, this playboy forced onto the battlefield will one day stand with his sword in hand and, by his strength alone, hold up the crumbling empire and its vast lands!
