I Was Supposed to Be an Undercover Agent, So How Did I Become a Powerful Official?

Wei Zhou transmigrated into the role of an undercover agent and was poisoned with deadly venom from the start? He has no System and no old master guiding him, only a Nine-Aperture Exquisite Heart! Sounds impressive? But who could have known that not a single aperture of this thing was open, meaning he had to rely entirely on his own efforts to break through and unlock its potential. Fortunately, it can increase his own attributes, so it is still barely usable. Thus, Wei Zhou works as a model official in Dayong while secretly cultivating and preparing to turn against the court. From a refugee to a ninth-rank military official, he climbs all the way from the bottom of the imperial court to become a favorite before the Emperor of Dayong. His superior helps nurture his official seal, a general bestows a life-saving Tiger Tally upon him, and even the old foxes of the Inspectorate pat Wei Zhou on the shoulder and say, “Brother Wei, I believe in you.” Wei Zhou acts his part so well that sometimes even he believes it himself. Until the throne sits empty, and the national treasure, the Landscape and State Dominion Map, lies within his reach. Holding the Landscape and State Dominion Map, Wei Zhou smiles. “Sorry, but this realm, I, Wei, will gladly accept it.”
