Synopsis

Xia Zuoyi transmigrates into a novel set in an unrealistic medieval Western fantasy world, becoming a beautiful, refined young lord.

Male, likes men, and a cannon-fodder character in the story.

Under the glow of the heroine's Mary Sue aura, he repeatedly does stupid things to advance the plot, eventually being convicted and dying a painful death by hanging.

After transmigrating, Xia Zuoyi touches his pale, tender neck and thinks, I won't get involved with men even if it kills me. I'll focus on building things.

Romance is no match for infrastructure! Please let me shine on my own! Thank you!

The pope, the duke, and the leader: Did we agree to that?

Here, the upper and lower classes are sharply divided, and the hierarchy is rigid.

Here, food is scarce, medicine is backward, and city-states are constantly at war. The splendor of the nobility and the misery of the commoners flourish side by side.

Here, it is both a romantic land and a savage age.

There is a rumor on the Western Continent: The pope is blessed by God, the duke wields more power than the king, and the head of the merchants' guild commands all the wealth of the empire.

Yet Xia Zuoyi, in the name of the Lord of Rose Territory, drives the whole Western Continent toward civilizational progress and economic prosperity, unifies the city-states, and establishes a powerful industrial empire.

He is the glory of the empire, its most vivid and captivating rose.

Rumor has it that the pope, the duke, and the leader have all fallen at his feet, but the Lord of Rose Territory couldn't care less.

Xia Zuoyi: Q_Q Rumors have done me wrong.
