Easygoing, laid-back seme VS a patient, ruthless minister uke
Qin Fengya wakes up in the body of the crown prince, a royal second-generation heir. The only problem is, this prince has just two years to live. Once the rebels rise up, their leader will kill him with a single stroke and bring his life to an end.
Above him is a foolish old emperor. Below him is Consort Shu, who keeps reporting on him with her son, hoping to take his place. The original crown prince is also extremely fond of handsome men. He gets involved with the old emperor's favorite consort, flirts with the aloof chancellor, who is also a man, and kisses the general.
Qin Fengya: *serene expression*

Liu Hanyu is a young chancellor, just twenty-one years old, head of a great clan, and as shrewd as they come. His cool, distant beauty is like a faraway mountain, meant to be admired from a distance.
In this crumbling dynasty, the great clans have less power than the eunuchs, but more than the crown prince, whom the emperor despises.
The crown prince's life or death means nothing to the dynasty. That is, until Liu Hanyu meets Qin Fengya, sleeping in a tree.
Qin Fengya loves watching a spectacle, and their eyes meet.
Liu Hanyu is as cool as the moon and ruthless by nature, but he gives his one true heart to Qin Fengya. His beauty is breathtaking. His ears turn red as he softly coaxes, “Your Highness.”

“Your Highness, it's time to attend court!”
“I'm not going.”
“Your Highness, it's time to read the memorials!”
“Oh.”
Even being a lazy fish won't do, so Qin Fengya sighs and takes the fate of the dynasty onto his shoulders. He executes corrupt officials, fends off foreign enemies, and restores the realm.

“You ask me about the way of ruling?”
The crown prince replies, “A peaceful realm where everyone has food and warm clothes, the old are cared for, the young are taught, and all can live in peace and safety.”
