Zheng Xi, a newly powerful official in the Dayin Dynasty, is known as the "Iron-faced Chief Assistant".
He loves power as much as his life, he loves money as much as his life, and he loves beauty even more - he eats both men and women, and he is not taboo on meat and vegetables. It stands to reason that an official with such overt ambitions would be unable to withstand the test. However, he has been an official for ten years and has accumulated a reputation as "honest, honest and upright".
The root cause is that he suffered a terrible fate in his previous life - he fell in love with the wrong brother, who embezzled tens of billions of dollars. He also fell from the clouds into Tilan Bridge, and tasted the feeling of being a prisoner.
In this life, Zheng Xi learned from the experience and vowed not to make the same mistakes again: beauties want to play, but only dabble in it and never get into it; his wife has his own money to take care of, and he will never handle it, so as not to get into trouble; as for power? Of course, the more, the better. Only by holding great power can we protect the wealth and idleness in this life.
Therefore, this "good official" who was upright on the outside but romantic on the inside, based on the arrogance of a descendant of a noble family and the wisdom of a time traveler, moved step by step towards the top of a powerful official.
However, his legendary "virtuous lady" seemed a little too virtuous.
Not only does he keep everything inside and outside the mansion in order, he even knows more about "power" than he, the first assistant. Whenever he comes back from hooking up with a beautiful woman, he can always receive "gentle" greetings from his wife; whenever he encounters problems in the court, he can always receive "just the right" advice from his wife.
Until one day, a political opponent stabbed him in the back, and the assassin came to visit.
Zheng Xi risked his life and rushed back to rescue the "weak" lady, but he saw her lightly raising her bare hands and kicking the assassin. Her expressionless look was exactly the same as that of the majestic Emperor in the Jinluan Palace.
Zheng Xi: "..."
Where is the promised virtuous lady? What if you say you are too weak to take care of yourself?
Xu Jing (Emperor): My dear, do you still admire my acting skills?
