Everyone in the capital knows that Gu Changan, the second son of the Zhenxihou Mansion, is the "number one dandy" - he gets drunk in gambling houses, spends money like water, and always avoids court whenever he sees it. But no one knows that his indulgence is a disguise and his absurdity is a plan. Fifteen years ago, his biological mother Shen died unjustly, and the old case was covered up. Fifteen years later, the border was in crisis, the court situation was in turmoil, and an imperial edict to "recruit a bride through martial arts competition" pushed him to the forefront.
On the stage, he shook the whole audience with one punch; in the court, he smiled and made moves, forcing the dignitaries of the court to lose their composure. Princess Yunzhao only regarded him as a chess piece at first, but through repeated trials and encounters, she discovered the ruthlessness and depth of this playboy. Old scores have to be settled, new enemies are pressing forward, and intrigues and swords are intertwined. When Gu Changan tears off the mask of a dandy, the world understands: what he wants is never wealth and romance, but overturning the case, subjugating the country and becoming a lord.
