Upcoming story: The Entire Cultivation World Thinks I'm Hiding My Strength. Add it to your collection!
[Story Blurb] After being reborn as Jinling's number-one wastrel, Zhou She has learned nothing but cockfighting, horseback riding, and sightseeing. His parents have given up on him and arranged an early marriage, planning to use him as a pawn in a political alliance.
Then the dormant sky screen lights up. A video begins playing, revealing royal secrets and recounting the dark history of Ning Emperor Zong, a tyrant for the ages who disrespected his ancestors, broke his word, and slaughtered his meritorious subjects.
Zhou She watches cheerfully, completely unaware, until...
[Emperor Zong killed countless people in his life and had a heart of ice, yet he felt true devotion to his wife. He polished this golden hairpin with his own hands as a token of their love, and it was buried with him when he died.]
Zhou She: ...
He lowered his head and looked at the design he had just drawn.
Are you talking about the one I'm planning to make? The golden hairpin I'm giving to my future wife?
Wait, Emperor Zong is me? I'm the tyrant, too?!
*
The emperor is over fifty and his health is clearly deteriorating, so he plans to appoint a crown prince.
He looks at his sons: the second is all brawn, the third is simple-minded, the fourth is impulsive and quick to anger, the fifth is timid and cowardly, and the sixth is still learning to talk.
The emperor: "Heaven wants me dead!"
Just then, the sky screen appears. The emperor surveys his sons, rubbing his hands as he tries to figure out which one will become a tyrant.
He searches and searches... Why has he found an outsider instead?!
Reader's notes:
1. The story has a lighthearted tone. There will be some political intrigue, but not too much.
2. The male lead really is a wastrel in the early chapters.
3. The male and female leads truly love each other. It's a marriage-first, love-later story.
Upcoming story: The Entire Cultivation World Thinks I'm Hiding My Strength
In his previous life, Zhou Jiansu worked himself to death at a 007 job. Then he transmigrated to a cultivation world.
The good news: If he cultivates to the Divine Transformation stage, immortality may be within reach.
The bad news: He has the lowest-grade Five Elements spiritual roots. He could work himself to death and still only reach Foundation Establishment.
Zhou Jiansu: "Then forget it. I'll lie flat, grow some crops, and settle down in some remote mountain forest."
But one day, he opens his door to find a group of brightly dressed cultivators holding magical weapons and standing before him. "We humbly ask Your Highness the Crown Prince to return to your rightful place and take charge!"
Zhou Jiansu: "???" You mean me, this good-for-nothing with Five Elements spiritual roots?
*
Zhou Jiansu discovers that he is the crown prince of a dynasty, lost among the common people. Worse, the entire dynasty has built an eight-hundred-meter-thick halo around him.
His cultivation progresses at a snail's pace, and the general is overjoyed. "Your Highness has a solid foundation and refuses to rush. Such excellent character!"
He sneaks off to read light novels every day, and his tutor keeps praising him. "Your Highness is so knowledgeable and well-read!"
He tries to skip his lessons, and his attendants admire him to no end. "Your Highness is traveling incognito, with the common people in your heart!"
Then enemy forces surround the kingdom, and the ministers behind him ask him to go fight them. Zhou Jiansu is utterly dumbfounded. "How can you expect someone at Foundation Establishment to fight someone at Divine Transformation?!"
The ministers ignore him and praise him instead. "Your Highness is making the enemy underestimate you. What a brilliant plan!"
Zhou Jiansu: "..."
It's over. They've really gone mad!
Theme: Hard work can change your life
Before I saw this, I always felt weird. After reading it, I found that the male protagonist had done a lot of credit, but he was called a tyrant or something, and he was almost killed. It was clear that there was no male protagonist and everyone died together to return to Renzong. Those literati and historians who wrote indiscriminately just had too much to eat and were living too well.
Teacher, I want to watch both the Afterlife and Underworld Extras. If I really have to choose, I want to watch the Underworld Extras even more!
My wife is here. Is it New Year's Eve? (I love to eat a bite of New Year's Eve.)
He was reborn painlessly after taking explosives, right?
Fortunately, I just entered it by mistake, otherwise it would be too miserable to learn it again.
Leave a record of all orders and go after Baozi's new articles.
I want the underworld extra story ~ the underworld extra story ~

I really like the male protagonist's life without a curtain, his image is too full.
