The Young Master Won't Be a Good-for-Nothing [Book Transmigration]

[Love and political intrigue, locked in a deadly struggle] [Jealous suitors, five love interests, with one-on-one relationships at different stages] My next novel, After the Poor Little One Seduces the Feudal Daddy, is now open for preorders! [Blurb] Xie Xiyu, graceful enough to dazzle the halls of Wei, and more talented than anyone in Linyang. He is the jade-like son born into the Xie family's noble household, and a gentleman of peerless elegance. More than that, he is the unattainable moonlight in everyone's heart. And this is the life that was stolen from Xie Buwei. Xie Buwei is the real young master. Xie Xiyu is nothing but the son of a family servant. But even after the truth about the servant's child being switched at birth becomes known to the world, Xie Xiyu remains the elegant, noble young master of the Xie family. And Xie Buwei is nothing but a servant who stole a fine silk robe and put it on. No one doesn't despise him. The ill-tempered crown prince: "As long as I am here, you will never be the heir to the Xie family!" The mild-mannered chancellor: "Only a gentleman deserves to be my friend. You do not." The arrogant general: "How could something raised by servants compare to Brother Xiyu?" The aloof Imperial Preceptor: "Stop begging. I will not see you." And his elegant, noble fake brother also drops his mask when they are alone: "You'll always be the Xie family's servant, never me." Xie Buwei: (coldly) Oh. The one thing Xie Buwei regrets in this life is reading a harem novel titled The Moonlight Chancellor Who Devotes Himself to His Country. Then he wakes up again as the novel's despised character, who shares his name. And he's forced to take on a mission: Take back everything that should have belonged to Xie Buwei, inherit the Xie family, and govern the court of Wei. Xie Buwei: (calmly) Then I'll pass. From that day on, the world loses Xie Buwei, the buffoon who foolishly dared to compete with Xie Xiyu, and gains Lord Xie, a pillar of the court who works tirelessly for his country and its people. Xie Buwei: (modestly) Who says I can't win it all back through my own hard work? But things spiral further and further out of control. Why are the people who once hated him to the bone suddenly running up to him and saying a bunch of things he can't understand? The ill-tempered crown prince speaks gently: "If you'll be my crown princess, I'll share not only the Xie family but the whole empire with you!" The mild-mannered chancellor loses his composure: "If you don't like gentlemen, then I'll be a villain for you." The arrogant general speaks softly: "I was blind before. How about I gouge out my eyes to apologize?" The aloof Imperial Preceptor pleads: "Let me beg you for once. Please look at me." Even Xie Xiyu, peerless in elegance, bows before him in front of a crowd: "From now on, I am your subject." Xie Buwei: (spitting blood) Don't come any closer! [Read These Content Warnings!!!] 1.
