[Lighthearted Blurb]
The lone general Di Yunhe, heartbroken, sets out on the road to rebellion.
Step one: Pick a useless, spoiled prince who's easy to control.
Step two: Get rid of the promising candidates for the throne.
Step three: Help the useless prince take the throne.
And with that, the plan to "control the emperor and command the lords" is a success.
Third Prince Qi Yuanheng escaped the purge that wiped out his mother's family only because of his royal status. Shunned wherever he goes, he longs for freedom but can't escape the constraints of imperial power. He wants to climb to the top and take the highest seat, where everything is decided by him.
Step one: Find a suitable patron. General Di, whose only younger sister was driven to her death by the emperor, is perfect.
Step two: Become General Di's useless student.
Step three: Secretly help General Di get rid of his troublesome brothers.
Step four: Break free of his control and give Teacher Di a huge shock.
Plan complete.
Qi Yuanheng: General, you think you chose me? In truth, I chose you.
