The protagonist Xiao Jinlan is the ninth prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, and his biological mother is an abandoned concubine who died young. On the surface, he is the most uneducated and dandy prince in the capital. He hangs around the flower streets and wine alleys all day long, but in fact, he has a deep edge because he witnessed his mother being framed and died tragically when he was young. He is cynical on the surface, but he is affectionate and righteous in his heart. He is good at disguising himself as "absurd". The growth arc goes from tolerant and dormant to gradually showing his edge, and finally completes self-salvation in the process of seizing the inheritance and revenge, transforming from a carefree prodigal to an emperor who truly protects the common people.
