In the great Cangshi Empire, the world is suddenly in turmoil. Duan Guanlan, a descendant of a down-and-out royal family, was accidentally involved in the battle for the right to inherit the throne. Originally he just wanted to hide away for a while, but found that every time he "hided from trouble", he was pushed to the forefront. He and the all-powerful new prince Yan Zixi, the scheming counselor Xu Baichuan, the shopping mall queen Xu Lin, and the hapless but mysterious personal soldier Feng Le, battled wits and made jokes along the way, laughing and crying in the endless power-grabbing games. Forces from all sides are secretly wrestling with each other, and the people of the world are displaced due to conspiracy. When the dust of the storm settles, Duan Guanlan will finally face his own choice - to become a powerful man, or to be the most carefree laugher?
