After Our Divorce, the Empress Begged Me to Become Regent

After half a lifetime away, I return to find myself a live-in son-in-law.

Then, in the blink of an eye, I become the manager of a pleasure house.

So be it.

A pot of cheap wine, a couple of little tunes, and a few beautiful confidantes. I'll enjoy a quiet life in my remaining years.

But fate has other plans.

My father-in-law at court asks me to solve cases, friends in the martial world beg for my help, and people from all walks of life, from officials to nobles, come to this pleasure house for intelligence.

One day, even the empire's highest authority comes by reputation.

The Empress: "Cai Lang, I hear you want me to be your star courtesan?"
