Xiao Yi, a modeling genius from A University who died suddenly after staying up all night, woke up to find he had become the weakest, sickly young master in the Marquis of Zhou’s household.
With a damaged heart meridian and a frail, sickly body, everyone saw him as a burden to the household, a good-for-nothing who lived on medicine.
But nobody knew that inside this feeble body dwelled a top expert in modern logic and scientific modeling.
All he wanted was to lie flat, live off others, and wait out his days in peace, avoiding court disputes and political scheming.
Unfortunately, his stepmother framed him, treacherous officials laid charges against him, the royal family tried to flatter him to death, and turmoil in the land closed in at every turn.
With no other choice, he feigned illness and weakness, moving carefully and strategically. He used mathematical logic to crush the ancient world’s political schemes, single-handedly stopping a plague, resolving a military crisis, putting down a palace coup, and stabilizing the court.
He had only wanted to keep his head down and survive, yet somehow he won the heart of Pei Xuan, the powerful regent who held sway over the entire court.
Obsessively protective, Pei Xuan took poison in his place, offered him the whole realm as a bride price, and claimed him with mad possessiveness:
“Xiao Yi, you can escape the world’s conflicts, but you can’t escape me.”
In his previous life, he died alone in a cold laboratory, with nobody to care.
In this life, his whole family cherishes him, the land and rivers dote on him, and one person holds his hand for life.
