My Lord Chancellor

When highly nearsighted Mu Zi Huai arrives in ancient times, he is practically half-blind. While secretly waiting for maritime merchants to bring in glasses, he cozies up to a wealthy patron and gathers a few underlings. At last, the wealthy patron becomes emperor, and his underling becomes a general. And after years of struggling, he somehow becomes the chancellor, The Outcast, second only to one and above all others. One-on-one pairing. Don't be fooled by this cheerful blurb. Your humble author only writes stories that are half-cute, half-serious, and sort of serious dramas. But! I do occasionally get cute! "It's so late. What are you doing in my room?" "I'm the chancellor! You can't..." "Let's talk this out! Give me my pants back first!" Super slow burn! Calm and steady! Feel free to click and bookmark! The prince (who becomes emperor later) is the pursuer. The younger-man tag was selected by mistake, and since the rankings can't be changed, I'll fix it after the book leaves the ranking list. So sorry! I've switched to a new cover made by my dear friend Meng Meng! Ban Bu has finally escaped the era of terrible image editing! Getting out of poverty and getting rich is no dream! Here's the link to my author page: Please pre-book my new novel: Quick Transmigration: Don't Come Near Me Blurb: Xu Nuo transmigrates, becoming the second male lead whom everyone likes, except the heroine. Bound to a System, he travels through all kinds of novels, with countless people falling at his feet... Wait, male lead, get away from my jeans! Go away!! System: You have two missions. First, protect the heroine and keep her safe. You're the little oar that rows the boat, the climbing shoe that helps her scale the mountain. When it's time to die, die quickly. Don't drag it out. Xu Nuo: ╭(╯^╰)╮ No. System: Second, don't compete with the heroine for her man. The male lead belongs to her, understood? Xu Nuo: ╭(╯^╰)╮ No. Intended message:
