He transmigrates to ancient times as the young son of a high-ranking official. His parents are loving, and his siblings get along.
Zhou Ziang sets himself a life goal: be the laziest fish in the pond! Why sit the imperial exams or learn martial arts? Isn't a life of luxury as a pampered rich kid much better? He even leaves finding a wife to his traditional parents. As long as he doesn't cause trouble, he'll have a lifetime of wealth and comfort.
Then, because he is chaste and handsome, the emperor summons him to become a prince consort.
After the wedding, Zhou Ziang happily takes the instructional comics he drew himself to the princess's bedchamber. But he ends up being the one crying out instead?
Years later, Zhou Ziang asks, "Is there any justice in this? How did that little devil end up becoming emperor, too???"
When the princess first meets her prince consort, she thinks: This is nothing but a useless little man. He only gives me strange picture books as gifts. He has the bright, intelligent looks of a gentleman, but in reality he's greedy and lecherous.
Later, the princess spends every day waking late beneath the hibiscus curtains. So what if he's useless? This useless man is a delight!
The history books say: "When Zhou first became prince consort, he was radiant and exceptional, and the emperor loved him dearly. The year after ascending the throne, the emperor informed the ancestors at the temple and bestowed the title of empress upon him. He never took another consort in his life."
