Emperor gong who plays the pig to eat the tiger x shou who pretends to be deaf whenever he doesn't like what's being said
Su Yuanchu transmigrates and suddenly finds himself the leader of the martial arts world.
Is this world of martial artists, where experts abound and everyone can leap across rooftops and walk on snow without leaving a trace, actually scientific?!
As a modern man who studied Newton's laws from childhood, Su Yuanchu really has no idea how to deal with all the different factions constantly showing up to challenge him.
There's no helping it. As long as I can't hear them, it'll be fine.
So Su Yuanchu begins his career pretending to be deaf, answering questions about one thing with something completely unrelated.
At the martial arts tournament, the leader of a certain gang asks, “How old are you this year, Alliance Leader?”
Su Yuanchu: “Thank you, thank you. I don't like egg custard.”
His subordinate: “This is bad, Alliance Leader! The emperor has summoned you to the palace!”
Su Yuanchu: “What?! A good man like me never looks at erotic palace paintings!”
Word on the streets has it that the newly appointed leader of the martial arts world is young and peerlessly skilled, once repelled a million enemies with a single sword stroke, and leaves darkness in his wake wherever he goes.
Meanwhile, the leader himself is playing cards in the courtyard with his good-for-nothing friends, covered in paper slips. “Huh? Where did that rumor come from?”

Ever since the founding of the Great Yuan, the power of the martial arts world has been impossible to underestimate, and it has always been at odds with the imperial court.
After ascending the throne, Shen Xinye goes undercover to persuade the martial arts sects to serve the court.
The new emperor is a brilliant strategist on the battlefield, able to fight ten men at once, and a decisive, formidable ruler in court. He conceals his identity and approaches the martial arts alliance leader as an advisor, only to run into a deaf man.
Wait, he's in his twenties and already hard of hearing?
Every day, Shen Xinye and Su Yuanchu have conversations like two people speaking different languages. Shen is so furious his mind goes blank, and the deaf man, completely oblivious, hands him a walnut. “Got a headache? Have a walnut. They're good for you.”
Shen Xinye: “...”
If a gradual approach doesn't work, will seduction do the trick?
...But why does this deaf man like men?
Does that mean I have to make the first move myself???

After making the first move himself:
Su Yuanchu is so flustered by the heartfelt confession from his thoughtful advisor that he can't think straight. “How about you just pretend I'm really deaf? I still have to learn martial arts...”
Shen Xinye calls his secret guards over. “Go spread some rumors so those people who keep coming to challenge me will stop interrupting my good time!”
