I Became the Chief Imperial Guard Through Banter

In his previous life, Zhao Tingyu, crown prince of Zhao, was manipulated by treacherous men and blinded by hatred. He killed someone he shouldn't have, leading to the fall of Zhao.

Awakening from a dream, Zhao Tingyu is reborn with his memories of his previous life, back before relations between Zhao and Liang deteriorated beyond repair. This time, he will never let the tragedy happen.

But dreams are beautiful, while reality is harsh.

And this time, someone else has been reborn with him: a ridiculous brocade pouch that "spouts nonsense" and makes him lose face.

His hard-won reputation is going to be ruined by this thing.

No way. As long as I'm quick enough to play the straight man, the fool can't catch me.

And so...

Thanks to his excellent straight-man skills, he goes from the regent's princess consort to the regent's chief armed guard.

Zhao Tingyu: "That was an accident, an accident."

He keeps playing the straight man, nearly catches the young emperor's eye, and becomes the chief eunuch in the palace.

Zhao Tingyu cries: "Playing the straight man is risky. Be careful before you do it."
