The Heir Gives Up: A Drama Queen Helps Me Become Emperor

Xiao Jingheng, heir to the Prince of Nanling, appears to be a spoiled playboy who spends his days cockfighting and horse racing, but in truth, he is a modern soul who has transmigrated into another world. Beneath the prosperity of the Great Yin dynasty, undercurrents swirl. Vassal princes vie for power, the borders are in turmoil, and the people are displaced. Newly arrived in this world, he is caught in a vortex of political intrigue, dismissed as a useless fool and struggling at every turn. Then he unexpectedly gains a golden finger: the ability to see through people’s hearts, calculate how events will unfold, and plan the realm’s fate like a chess game. He can discreetly spot the loyal and the treacherous, predict his opponents’ moves, and turn desperate situations around. No one can match his talent for playing the pig to eat the tiger. While others rack their brains to break a deadlock, he watches the tides of power with a smile. While everyone else fights for power and profit, he quietly takes control of the court. From the capital’s number-one playboy to the ruler of the realm, he stands alone at the peak of political intrigue. Together with the lively and mischievous A Ruo, he strides through a chaotic age, turning his hand to raise the clouds and make rain, and forging an imperial legacy for the ages.
