Xiao Yifeng, a modern office drone, wakes after working himself to exhaustion and finds he has transmigrated as the good-for-nothing Crown Prince whom everyone in the Great Liang dynasty despises.
After being worked to the bone in his previous life, all he wants this time is to lie flat. He writes a petition asking to be stripped of his title, skips court every day, eats hot pot and sleeps in at the rear courtyard, and dreams of opening a hot pot restaurant.
But the more he slacks off, the more nervous his enemies become. The officials think he’s plotting something big, the Second Prince thinks he’s playing the pig to eat the tiger, and everyone imagines the same thing: The Crown Prince is unfathomably deep!
Driven into a corner, he has no choice but to use modern knowledge to handle each crisis as it comes. Before he knows it, he’s taken down every one of his rivals.
The entire court begs him to ascend the throne, but he leaves the capital in the middle of the night instead. “Being emperor is too exhausting. I’d rather open a hot pot restaurant.”
This is a hilarious story about a lazy Crown Prince who doesn’t want to work, gets forced into action, and ends up winning everyone over.
Right from the start, I was attracted by the contrasting cuteness of the prince and became a fan! The setting of "I don't want to have a career, I just want to lie down" is so fresh, the rhythm is brisk and full of laughter, keep following it! It's so beautiful, I look forward to the author's follow-up 👍👍👍
